What it does
Fire a peepshow run into Sentry as a single event: tags are populated from video metadata (title, director, duration), frames are attached as screenshots, the fingerprint keeps related runs grouped.
When to reach for it
- Agent crash on a specific video → surface the exact frames in Sentry
- Automated soak-tests of media pipelines with video evidence in error reports
- Environment-specific debugging: tag events by `which video made the agent fail`
Install
npm i -g peepshowUse it
peepshow ./trigger.mp4 --sink sentry \
--sink-arg dsn=https://...ingest.sentry.io/...Make it automatic
Register the sink once — every run fires it afterward. Scope by --when so it only runs for matching videos.
peepshow sinks add sentry
peepshow sinks add sentry --when extension=mp4,mov
peepshow sinks add sentry --when path=/Volumes/Work/Configuration
PEEPSHOW_SENTRY_DSNSentry DSN. requiredPEEPSHOW_SENTRY_ENVEnvironment tag. Default `peepshow`.
Use with an LLM agent
Every peepshow sink reads its config from env vars and receives a single JSON payload on stdin. An LLM agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini, Codex) can drive the Sentry sink automatically when three things are true:
- the env vars below are exported in the agent's shell (or a project
.envit can load), - the
peepshowCLI is onPATH— install withnpm i -g peepshow, - a peepshow auto-sink is registered for the run (optional but recommended — makes invocation zero-argument).
1. Set the environment
# Add to ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, or a project .env the agent can load
export PEEPSHOW_SENTRY_DSN="..."2. Register as an auto-sink
peepshow sinks add sentry
peepshow sinks add sentry --when extension=mp4,mov3. Example LLM session
You → drop a
.movinto Claude Code.Claude → auto-invokes
/peepshow:slides ./clip.mov. peepshow extracts frames + audio, theSentrysink forwards the run to the alert / incident stream. Claude replies with a summary and a link to the created record.
Transcript metadata (language, duration, silence ratio) tags each event.
Write your own
A sink is any executable that reads the --emit json payload on stdin. Shell, Node, Python, Go — the spec's in docs/PLUGINS.md. Register persistent ones with peepshow sinks add-cmd 'your-command'.
