MCP queries your monitoring data. It doesn't collect, store, or alert. Your agent isn't watching your app while you sleep, and every event would cost you tokens.
We wrote about what MCP actually does and what still needs a monitoring tool.

Vibe coding makes a monitoring tool look done in an afternoon. Then you need to monitor the monitor.
We wrote about why building your own breaks down and where a managed tool actually saves you time.

Doesn't matter who wrote the code: you, Claude, or the colleague who swore RSpec covered every edge case.
What matters is that when PagerDuty wakes you at 2 am, you can fix it quickly.

Migrating your app can be scary, but it doesn't have to be.
@render makes deploying easy. Our checklist makes the move easy too, with AppSignal as your smoke alarm: it tells you the second something breaks and gives you the tools you need to fix it.

You prompted a Flask app into being. It worked locally, so you shipped it.
You don't know each function well enough to catch what breaks in the wild. Not your prompt's fault, not your agent's. Just a blind spot.

Debugging used to mean tabbing through screens like you're docking at the ISS.
Now your editor can just ask AppSignal directly.
New guide: connect AppSignal's MCP server to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Zed in under 5 minutes.

We're really excited to sponsor Code Beam Europe, especially as Elixir was our first adventure outside of Ruby.
Can't wait to see people in person with some swag and stroopwafels in Amsterdam this Autumn!
We are thrilled to announce that @AppSignal is joining us as a D&I (Diversity & Inclusion) Sponsor for Code BEAM Europe!
They've been along for the whole ride - first APM with native Elixir support, back in 2017, built from scratch before telemetry existed.
Thanks for helping us keep the door open.

On a scale of 1-10, how fast are your Sidekiq jobs? If it's "no idea", you're not alone!
Sidekiq's faithful, but faithful isn't set-and-forget. It slows down a millisecond at a time until it doesn't, blood pressure included.
Here's why and how to fix it: blog.appsignal.com/2026/07/2…

Day 3 of Launch Week: Logging 📝
Logs live next to your errors, traces, and host metrics now. Query with AND/OR, JSON dot notation, and comparisons like duration_ms>2000, then turn any line into a metric or alert.

It's day 2 of Launch Week! Hosted MCP + new CLI make it way easier to connect AI agents to AppSignal.
OAuth gets you connected in clicks, then your agent pulls real errors, traces, logs, and metrics.
The CLI's great for fast lookups or leaner agent runs.

Good morning from Brighton Ruby, (thanks for organizing @andycroll!). We've got Dutch Stroopwafels (strope-waf-els), Brighton Rock, and we're giving away 3x @useTRMNL displays 😎

You picked your stack for how you work. Familiarity, speed, preference.
None of that carries over when an agent writes the code.
So we asked which framework an AI builds cheapest. Rails vs Django vs Laravel, every token counted.

The 2026 Rails Community Survey is open.
10 minutes, anonymous, and the results go back to the whole community.
This year's focus: AI in Rails workflows: whether you're using it or not, your answer matters!

When a Rails app is slow, it's easy to spend hours optimizing a view only to find that active_record is problem, turning our debugging question from "why is the app slow" to "which query is slow?".
Introducing our guide to killing slow queries:

We now support @render 's metrics stream in AppSignal. Point it at your collector, and you get host metrics for your Render services plus automatic dashboards for HTTP, Postgres, and Key Value.
We wrote up how it works:
