Sentry Browser SDK

Opinionated wizard that scans your project and guides you through complete Sentry setup for browser JavaScript — vanilla JS, jQuery, static sites, WordPress, and any JS project without a framework-specific SDK.

Invoke This Skill When

• User asks to "add Sentry to a website" or set up Sentry for plain JavaScript
• User wants to install @sentry/browser or configure the Loader Script
• User has a WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, or static HTML site
• User wants error monitoring, tracing, session replay, or logging without a framework
• No framework-specific SDK applies

Note: SDK versions and APIs below reflect @sentry/browser ≥10.0.0. Always verify against docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/ before implementing.

Phase 1: Detect

CRITICAL — Check for frameworks first. Framework-specific SDKs provide significantly better coverage and must be recommended before proceeding with @sentry/browser.

Step 1A: Framework Detection (Redirect If Found)

# Check for React
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"react"'

# Check for Next.js
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"next"'

# Check for Vue
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"vue"'

# Check for Angular
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"@angular/core"'

# Check for Svelte / SvelteKit
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"svelte"|"@sveltejs/kit"'

# Check for Remix
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"@remix-run/react"|"@remix-run/node"'

# Check for Nuxt
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"nuxt"'

# Check for Astro
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"astro"'

# Check for Ember
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"ember-source"'

# Check for Node.js server frameworks (wrong SDK entirely)
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"express"|"fastify"|"@nestjs/core"|"koa"'

If a framework is detected, stop and redirect:
