Developer Workflow

Investigating a Production Error

You’re debugging an issue and have a stack trace. Instead of manually searching logs and code:
"Hey, investigate this error: ConnectionTimeout in PaymentService.processOrder()"
Steadwing automatically:
  • Searches your connected observability tools for related errors
  • Correlates with recent code changes in GitHub
  • Identifies the likely root cause
  • Suggests a fix

Analyzing Suspicious Code

You’re reviewing code and something looks off:
"Investigate why this function might be causing memory leaks"
Steadwing examines the code pattern, checks for similar issues in your codebase, and explains potential problems with actionable recommendations.

Understanding an Alert

An alert fires and you want quick context:
"What's causing the high latency alerts on the checkout service?"
Steadwing pulls metrics, recent deployments, and error patterns to give you a complete picture without leaving your editor.
