What is Statsig?

Statsig opens an agent-skills repo and broadens MCP, betting on AI agents as a primary user surface.

Statsig is treating AI coding agents (Claude, Cursor, Codex) as first-class consumers of the platform. The recent push includes a public agent-skills repository (reusable Statsig skills agents can install), MCP coverage extended to Segments and Layers so targeting and experiment config are now agent-driveable, and a private-beta Console API for generating dashboards programmatically. Alongside that, the analytics surface keeps gaining quality-of-life primitives: cancellable Metrics Explorer queries, Lifecycle Charts, Dashboard Pages.

What is Rootly?

Rootly is wiring an AI agent and enterprise controls into the incident-response core.

Rootly is an incident-response and on-call platform that has spent recent releases layering an AI agent, deeper integrations, and enterprise security onto its core workflow. The last two months pair a Slack-native AI scribe and commander with live service-catalog sync from Cortex and mobile device-management controls via Intune. The product is consolidating around running the whole incident from where responders already work.

Statsig opens an agent-skills repo and broadens MCP, betting on AI agents as a primary user surface.

◆ Current state

Statsig is treating AI coding agents (Claude, Cursor, Codex) as first-class consumers of the platform. The recent push includes a public agent-skills repository (reusable Statsig skills agents can install), MCP coverage extended to Segments and Layers so targeting and experiment config are now agent-driveable, and a private-beta Console API for generating dashboards programmatically. Alongside that, the analytics surface keeps gaining quality-of-life primitives: cancellable Metrics Explorer queries, Lifecycle Charts, Dashboard Pages.

◆ Where it's heading

The bet is that experimentation, feature flags, and product analytics work increasingly happens through an agent — engineers asking Claude or Cursor to set up a flag, build a dashboard, or check an experiment, rather than navigating Statsig's UI directly. Each release is either widening MCP coverage or making the underlying primitives agent-shaped (Console API for dashboards, shareable metric outputs, query cancellation to keep agent workloads from blowing up warehouse spend).

◆ Prediction

Expect MCP coverage to keep filling out — experiments, gates, holdouts — and the agent-skills repo to become a community surface with sample skills from common LLM agents. Pricing or guardrails around agent-driven warehouse query volume are an increasingly likely follow-on.

Rootly is wiring an AI agent and enterprise controls into the incident-response core.

◆ Current state

Rootly is an incident-response and on-call platform that has spent recent releases layering an AI agent, deeper integrations, and enterprise security onto its core workflow. The last two months pair a Slack-native AI scribe and commander with live service-catalog sync from Cortex and mobile device-management controls via Intune. The product is consolidating around running the whole incident from where responders already work.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is agent-assisted incident response with enterprise guardrails: an in-Slack AI agent, MCP over OAuth 2.0, and IDE plugins for Claude and Cursor all point at meeting responders inside their existing tools. In parallel the on-call surface keeps maturing, with global pay calculation, functionality-based paging, and SLA follow-ups. Rootly is widening from an incident tracker toward an operations layer spanning detection, response, and the back-office of running a rota.

◆ Prediction

Expect the Slack AI agent to gain more autonomous actions drawing on the Cortex catalog it now syncs, plus continued hardening of how agents authenticate and act.
