What is Problems?
Problems is an error-reporting and agent-status tool for teams that expose product capabilities through MCP servers or command-line interfaces. It captures tool failures and command outcomes, groups related errors, and gives teams a view of tool activity so they can identify where agents get stuck. Recurring issues can appear on an agent status page, and known fixes can be returned to agents. Plans include Startup at $30 per month, Team at $150 per month, and custom-priced Enterprise.
Problems Features:
Error Capture: Problems records failures from agents using MCP servers, CLI commands, or the /report route.
Usage Reporting: Teams can see which tools and commands agents call and how often.
Error Grouping: Similar errors are grouped together so recurring problems are easier to distinguish from isolated failures.
Occurrence Details: Opening an error group shows its details and recent occurrences, including the operation and source.
Agent Status Page: Recurring problems are posted automatically to an agent status page, which clears them after five quiet minutes.
MCP and CLI Setup: Calls and errors are batched automatically when a server is wrapped before tool registration, while CLI commands can record an outcome and flush before exiting.
Problems Benefits:
Faster Triage: Related failures collected together make recurring issues easier to spot than reviewing separate events one by one.
Clearer Priorities: Occurrence counts and recent activity help teams decide which agent failures need attention first.
Less Manual Monitoring: Automatic status updates reduce the need to post recurring agent problems by hand.
More Focused Investigation: Error details paired with recent occurrences give maintainers useful context when tracing a failing operation.
Better Usage Insight: Tool and command activity helps teams understand where agents spend time and where they run into trouble.
Use Cases:
MCP Server Monitoring: A team exposing product actions through an MCP server can capture tool failures and review recurring errors.
CLI Command Tracking: A CLI maintainer can record the outcome of named commands and flush those results before the process exits.
Recurring Error Review: A product team can inspect grouped failures, recent occurrences, and affected operations while investigating agent issues.
Agent Status Updates: A team can publish recurring problems for agents to see and let the status page clear them after a quiet period.
Tool Usage Review: A product owner can review which tools and commands agents call most often and identify where users get stuck.
