About Heystack

Heystack plugins let coding agents configure Heystack, investigate AI application incidents, and manage a workspace from an editor. They combine a hosted MCP server with setup and investigation skills for traces, logs, replays, crashes, and LLM usage.

Key features

  1. 01Inspect app health, traces, and logs
  2. 02View session stories and replays
  3. 03Review issues, crashes, and suspect releases
  4. 04Inspect generative AI usage and cost
  5. 05Configure runtimes and verify data receipt
  6. 06Manage apps, sampling, and alert rules

Use cases

  1. 01Investigating endpoint failures after a deploy
  2. 02Reviewing crashes and associated releases
  3. 03Adding Heystack to a project and checking data flow
  4. 04Managing app configuration and alerts

MCP support

The hosted MCP server provides app observability and workspace-management toolsets through a shared URL; team administration and read-only SQL are optional. Actions that grant access, create keys or tokens, or send data to an external URL require confirmation.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Heystack plugins

Plugins for Heystack — observability + security for AI apps — so your coding agent can set up Heystack, investigate incidents, and manage your workspace from your editor.

Install (Claude Code)

/plugin marketplace add heystack-hq/heystack-plugins
/plugin install heystack@heystack

Then run /mcp to sign in with Heystack and pick your organization. Try: "list my Heystack apps", "why is /checkout failing since the last deploy?", or "set up Heystack in this project and verify it's receiving data".

What you get

heystack (recommended) — the all-in-one plugin:

  • Hosted MCP server at https://mcp.heystack.dev/mcp (connected with ?toolsets=core,manage): app health, search traces & logs in plain English, open and explain traces, session stories and replays, issues and crashes with the suspect release, gen-AI usage & cost, a one-call incident dossier (heystack_investigate); plus apps, ingest keys, sampling/replay config, alert rules and app care. Team administration (members, invites, access tokens, audit) and read-only SQL stay opt-in: edit the plugin's .mcp.json URL to ?toolsets=core,manage,team (or advanced). Actions that grant access, mint keys or tokens, or send data to an external URL always ask for your confirmation. Sign in with Heystack (OAuth) — no keys to paste. Full reference: https://heystack.dev/docs/mcp
  • heystack-setup skill — detects the runtime (Next.js, Cloudflare Workers/Agents, Node, browser, Android) and wires the correct @heystack/otel entry or OTLP path; with the MCP server it creates the app and key itself and verifies data arrives with heystack_verify_setup.
  • heystack-investigate skill — the investigation loop: overview → dossier → traces/sessions → fix in code → verify; when to change issue status or create alerts; never destructive without your confirmation.

heystack-setup — the setup skill on its own (no MCP server), kept for existing installs: /plugin install heystack-setup@heystack.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
