OpenSRE

Open-source toolkit for building AI SRE incident response agents

OpenSRE is Tracer Cloud’s open-source public-alpha Python toolkit for building AI SRE agents that investigate and respond to production incidents. It ships 60+ tools across observability, databases, incident management, communications, deployment and protocol integrations, plus simulation/evaluation workflows for benchmarking agent accuracy before live pager use.

About OpenSRE

OpenSRE is an open-source toolkit from Tracer Cloud for building AI SRE agents that investigate and respond to production incidents. Rather than a generic chat-over-your-logs product, OpenSRE provides the scaffolding — connectors to common observability stacks, an incident workflow state machine, and an evaluation harness — so teams can assemble an agent that behaves like a junior on-call: pulling metrics, correlating traces, reading recent deploys, and proposing a root cause hypothesis.

Out of the box the public-alpha framework lists 60+ tools across the SRE surface: Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, OpenObserve, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Alertmanager, Slack, Discord, Telegram, databases, data platforms, deployment systems, and protocol integrations such as MCP, ACP, and OpenClaw. A notable design choice is the simulation and evaluation layer: teams can replay incidents and inspect agent behavior before letting it touch a live pager. That makes OpenSRE easier to trust than a from-scratch LangChain pipeline, while still requiring stack-specific validation before production use.

The project is Apache-2.0 licensed and written in Python, which fits the typical DevOps toolchain and makes custom connectors straightforward to add. It is a strong fit for platform and SRE teams who want an agentic incident workflow they can self-host, extend, and evaluate — without buying into a closed AIOps vendor stack.

Open-source observability and self-healing layer for AI agents

TraceRoot is a YC S25-backed open-source observability platform purpose-built for AI agents and LLM apps. It combines OpenTelemetry-compatible tracing with an agentic debugging runtime that reads your source code, correlates failures with recent commits, and proposes fix PRs automatically. BYOK support spans seven LLM providers; the entire stack runs self-hosted via Docker Compose, with TraceRoot Cloud available for managed deployments.

OpenSRE vs LangSmith — AI Incident Response vs LLM Observability in 2026

These two tools get compared because both sit in the 'AI-ops' region of the stack, but they have different jobs. OpenSRE is a framework for agents that investigate production incidents. LangSmith is an observability and evaluation platform for LLM applications. Picking between them is really a question of whether you need an agent that works with telemetry or a platform that generates it.
