> Send feedback about the Sentry CLI

# sentry cli feedback

Submit feedback about your experience with the Sentry CLI. All text after `feedback` is sent as your message.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
sentry cli feedback <message...>
```

## Arguments

* **message** (required) - Your feedback message (all remaining arguments are joined into a single message)

## Examples

### Positive Feedback

```bash theme={null}
sentry cli feedback I love this tool
```

### Feature Request

```bash theme={null}
sentry cli feedback Please add support for searching issues by tag
```

### Report Confusion

```bash theme={null}
sentry cli feedback The issue view is confusing, needs better formatting
```

### Multi-word Messages

```bash theme={null}
sentry cli feedback The upgrade command worked perfectly on macOS
```

No quotes needed—all arguments are automatically joined into a single message.

## How It Works

1. Your feedback is sent to Sentry via the `@sentry/bun` SDK's `captureFeedback()` method
2. The CLI waits up to 3 seconds to ensure the feedback is sent before exiting
3. Feedback is associated with your CLI version and platform for context

## Telemetry Requirement

Feedback requires telemetry to be enabled. If telemetry is disabled:

```bash theme={null}
$ sentry cli feedback This is great
Feedback not sent: telemetry is disabled.
Unset SENTRY_CLI_NO_TELEMETRY to enable feedback.
```

### Enabling Feedback

To enable feedback, unset the `SENTRY_CLI_NO_TELEMETRY` environment variable:

```bash theme={null}
# Temporary (current session)
unset SENTRY_CLI_NO_TELEMETRY

# Permanent (add to ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, etc.)
# Remove this line if present: export SENTRY_CLI_NO_TELEMETRY=1
```

## Success Confirmation

When feedback is successfully sent:

```bash theme={null}
$ sentry cli feedback This is great
Feedback submitted. Thank you!
```

## Network Timeout

If the feedback cannot be sent within 3 seconds (network issues):

```bash theme={null}
$ sentry cli feedback This is great
Feedback may not have been sent (network timeout).
```

The CLI does not retry automatically. Try again when you have a stable internet connection.

## Empty Messages

Empty or whitespace-only messages are rejected:

```bash theme={null}
$ sentry cli feedback
Error: Please provide a feedback message.
```

## Privacy

Feedback submissions include:

* Your feedback message
* CLI version (e.g., `0.5.0`)
* Platform/OS (e.g., `darwin`, `linux`, `win32`)
* Timestamp

**Not included:**

* Authentication tokens
* Project/organization data
* File paths or code from your machine
* Personal information (unless you include it in your message)

## Feedback vs. GitHub Issues

| Feedback Command                     | GitHub Issues                    |
| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------- |
| Quick, one-line thoughts             | Detailed bug reports             |
| Feature ideas                        | Feature proposals with use cases |
| General impressions                  | Reproducible steps               |
| Anonymous (no GitHub account needed) | Public discussion                |
| Sent to Sentry team                  | Community + team visibility      |

**When to use feedback:**

* Quick thoughts or impressions
* Don't need a response
* Want to remain anonymous

**When to use GitHub issues:**

* Need detailed troubleshooting
* Want to track progress
* Need to share logs, screenshots, or code

## Exit Codes

* `0` - Feedback sent successfully (or telemetry disabled)
* `1` - Validation error (empty message)
