Sentry CLI Distribution & Repackaging

This document consolidates all known ways Sentry CLI is distributed or repackaged, along with repositories that bundle or download it.

Note

This document was updated on 2026-01-29 and is accurate as of that date. We do not intend to actively maintain this document; it should only be considered as a snapshot of the state of the Sentry CLI distribution ecosystem at that time.

Release registry

• getsentry/sentry-release-registry — release registry listing Sentry CLI binaries and packages (tgz/whl/etc.) in apps/sentry-cli/.
  • Registry endpoint: Sentry CLI release registry

Distribution mechanisms in the Sentry CLI repo

• NPM wrapper package — @sentry/cli package definition and install script (package.json, scripts/install.js).
  • Package: @sentry/cli
• Platform‑specific npm binary packages — optional deps under npm-binary-distributions/ (e.g. @sentry/cli-linux-x64, @sentry/cli-win32-x64).
  • Source: npm-binary-distributions/*/package.json
  • Packages (examples): @sentry/cli-linux-x64, @sentry/cli-win32-x64
• Python package / wheels — sentry_cli package built via setuptools-rust (setup.py, setup.cfg, pyproject.toml).
• GitHub Releases binaries — prebuilt platform executables published as release assets.
  • Releases: Sentry CLI GitHub releases
• Docker image build — Dockerfile produces an Alpine‑based image with sentry-cli in PATH (Dockerfile, docker-entrypoint.sh).
  • Image: Sentry CLI image on Docker Hub

Installer repos referenced by official docs (first‑party)

• getsentry/sentry — serves the get-cli installer script endpoint (src/sentry/web/frontend/cli.py).
