Why should I use this instead of console.error?

This skill enforces a 'no exceptions' rule where all errors must be captured to Sentry, providing production visibility and alerting that console logs alone cannot offer.

What version of Sentry does this skill support?

This skill is specifically optimized for Sentry v8 patterns and integrations, ensuring compatibility with the latest SDK features.

Can it track database performance?

Absolutely; it includes helpers for wrapping database operations to detect slow queries, N+1 issues, and capture database-specific errors.

Does this skill handle cron job errors?

Yes, it includes a mandatory pattern for instrumenting Node.js cron jobs with Sentry spans to ensure all execution failures are reported.
