Today I added a one-shot script to install the Honeybadger CLI and a systemd service to get host metrics (CPU, RAM, and disk) sent to Insights:

If you're as cool as @excid3 and using @hatchboxio, then I think you'll like it. ;)

I have an ongoing Claude Code session for tracking my sales activities, helping with research, etc. I told it to self-organize, keeping info by project/prospect and keeping a daily log of my activities. It's a better UI than any CRM I've used. :)

Kevin’s dropping the knowledge bombs on using Honeybadger Insights from Claude.

Your metrics are green. No errors, no downtime, latency looks fine.
Except 22 carts got abandoned last week because checkouts were slow for some users.
Kevin used Claude Honeybadger's MCP server to find the pattern.

I’m tracking events in Breakwater with Honeybadger Insights, and I wanted to know how my background jobs were doing, so I used the Honeybadger MCP server in Claude Code with this prompt:
Can you show me the last few job executions from Honeybadger Insights for this project? ...

It showed the last 20 job executions from the past 24 hours and then summarized:
“Three jobs are running on a regular schedule:
- LicenseStatusTransitionJob - runs hourly on the :00, typically 70-145ms
- ..."

"Everything looks healthy - all jobs are executing on schedule with consistent durations and no errors in the last 24 hours.”
So cool :)

This post about "Respectful Open Source" by @teabass inspired me to have Claude build forkwatch, a tool that analyzes forks of any repo and highlights where multiple forks converge on the same fix.

It’s fun to tell Claude, "ship it", and watch it commit, push, and open a PR.
I just did that for my latest blog post about using AI to build Breakwater, an app for managing licensing and access control for Docker container distribution:

PRO TIP: make your credentials diff readable in GIT by adding these lines to a ".gitattributes" file:
config/credentials/*.yml.enc diff=rails_credentials
config/credentials.yml.enc diff=rails_credentials

I wanted to show off a new feature we launched this week, so I made a video. Then @heyjoshwood drew the rest of the owl by getting it to YouTube. 😉
So enjoy this demo of investigating the causes of slow Rails requests using Honeybadger Insights and note the cool in-line pop-ups.

Join Honeybadger cofounder @stympy as he uses Honeybadger Insights to debug a slow controller action in Rails using our new "hands-free mode" contextual menu to construct BadgerQL queries. 📈🔥

I started Father’s Day weekend with a bang… I played Magic with my sons and I won! 😎

Before anyone gets upset, yes, we all know there is a big difference between the Book of Mormon and a React conference.
One is the testimony of devoted followers preaching the true path to salvation through a single way of thinking, and the other is a book.

It's super fun to see my work on Faker show up in a paper on humor in software: arxiv.org/abs/2312.01680
