Anthropic's CJ Avilla Finds Old Project Still Burning Claude Tokens, Sentry Says

CJ Avilla of Anthropic sends Claude Platform OpenTelemetry data to Sentry and finds an old project still consuming tokens, Sentry says. A workshop traces a Claude agent calling tools against a backend and database, with failed calls, retries, and final success in one trace. Sentry says this shows whether to fix the prompt, tool, or service.

• Sentry says agent cost exceeds the model call because each retry against a slow or broken backend consumes more tokens.
• Sentry says without one connected trace, teams cannot see whether spending started in their API or their database.
• Sentry lists the session as a live workshop under its Resources section, part of an Automated Debugging Hub for agent root causes.
