SDK Changes Detected

The following PRs were merged to getsentry/sentry-ruby in the last 7 days that may affect the sentry-ruby-sdk skill:

• feat: Implement strict trace continuation sentry-ruby#2872 — feat: Implement strict trace continuation (feat: Implement strict trace continuation sentry-ruby#2872)
• chore(transport): Handle HTTP 413 response for oversized envelopes sentry-ruby#2885 — chore(transport): Handle HTTP 413 response for oversized envelopes (chore(transport): Handle HTTP 413 response for oversized envelopes sentry-ruby#2885)
• fix(rails): Track request queue time in Rails middleware sentry-ruby#2877 — fix(rails): Track request queue time in Rails middleware (fix(rails): Track request queue time in Rails middleware sentry-ruby#2877)

Potential Skill Gaps

1. New Config Options: PR #2872 adds two new configuration options not present in the skill's tracing reference table:

   • config.strict_trace_continuation (Boolean, default false) — controls whether the SDK starts a new trace when incoming sentry-org_id baggage doesn't match the SDK's org ID. Prevents inadvertent trace continuation from third-party services.
   • config.org_id (String) — explicitly set the organization ID (useful for self-hosted/Relay setups where DSN-based parsing may not work). Takes precedence over DSN-extracted org ID.

   The skill's tracing config table in references/tracing.md currently lists: traces_sample_rate, traces_sampler, trace_propagation_targets, propagate_traces. Neither new option appears.

2. Rails Queue Time Fix: PR #2877 fixes request queue time tracking in Rails middleware. The skill (references/tracing.md) mentions queue time capture being automatic in v6.4.0+ via Puma — this fix may change behavior or requirements worth documenting.

Skill Files to Review

• skills/sentry-ruby-sdk/SKILL.md — init options table in Phase 3
• skills/sentry-ruby-sdk/references/tracing.md — distributed tracing config table and propagation section

Priority

MEDIUM — new configuration options that affect distributed tracing behavior; relevant for microservice architectures using Ruby services.
