Tessary RCA

RCA is the explain step at the end of Tessary's pipeline. By the time it runs, the cheap classifiers have swept every trace and recorded findings, triage has ruled which of those findings are real deviations rather than legitimate changes, and the real ones have become a case. RCA runs on that case. Its job is attribution: saying why the deviation happened.

Each run is an agentic session in a fresh E2B microVM with the connected repo. It investigates the failing cohort with three inputs: the trace evidence, a dossier of what's known about the case, and the code itself.

The output is a set of grounded hypotheses for the cause, each with the evidence behind it, plus the checks the investigation ran and ruled out, so engineering doesn't repeat them. The report cites the files involved.

After attribution, RCA raises a PR with the fix.

Answered, plainly.

Does Tessary fix the regression itself?It proposes the fix. After naming the cause, RCA opens a pull request against your repo, and a person reviews and merges it, so nothing ships on its own.answer →Does Tessary need access to my repo to find the root cause?Not strictly. RCA reads a connected repo when you give it one, but an evidence-only investigation still runs and completes, with a stated ceiling.answer →Is RCA turned on by default?No. RCA ships off. A person starts it on a case, and on a self-hosted install its model calls run on the provider key your org supplied.answer →What happens after Tessary confirms a case?The case reaches a person, and root-cause analysis is theirs to start on it: an isolated investigation over that case's evidence, ending in a report.answer →What is a root-cause report?What Tessary's RCA investigation produces: grounded hypotheses for a case's cause, the checks it ruled out, and the files involved.answer →Why does a root-cause report list more than one possible cause?Because RCA reports every hypothesis it can actually support with evidence, not the one guess picked to sound decisive.answer →What is Tessary's root cause analysis?RCA is Tessary's third analysis layer: a strong model in a microVM investigates a confirmed case and returns grounded hypotheses for what changed.answer →What's the difference between a proven cause and a lead in an RCA report?A proven cause has a located change lining up with the evidence and is marked high confidence. A lead is unconfirmed, shown only when nothing is proven.answer →

Two ways to run Tessary.

Tessary is an open-source agent reliability platform. Cloud and self-hosted run the same workflow on the OpenTelemetry traces your agent already emits.

Tessary Cloud

We host it for you. Send your first trace with nothing to deploy and no model key.

Self-hosted Tessary

Run the open-source code on your own infrastructure with one command. Add your own model key for triage and root-cause analysis.

Self-host Tessary for me by following https://github.com/tessaryai/tessary/blob/main/setup.md

docker compose -f oci://docker.io/tessaryai/tessary:compose up -d -y
