Match a Bugsnag release to the code behind it
For developers who want a Bugsnag release traced to its Azure DevOps commit and build, by asking their AI assistant.

The problem
Releases and builds matched by copying versions
Matching a Bugsnag release to its Azure DevOps commit and build means copying versions and revisions between tools by hand. Mismatches go unnoticed and a deployed version can differ from the one reported.
Without PopdockAI
- Copy the release revision from Bugsnag
- Search Azure DevOps for the commit
- Find the build and release record by hand
- Miss a mismatch between them
With PopdockAI
- The release's revision and version are read
- The matching commit, build and release record are found
- Low confidence is stated when matching by version text
- Several matches are listed, nothing changed

**Objective:** Trace the Bugsnag release for app version {app-version} in project {project-name} back to the Azure DevOps commits and builds that produced it, looking at up to {max-records} records per call (default 20).
**Step 1: Find the release (Bugsnag)**
Call `bugsnag-get-release` with `app-version` and `project-name`. If nothing matches, report that and stop. Note `source-control-revision`, `build-label`, `release-date`, `errors-introduced-count` and `release-stage-name`.
**Step 2: Find the commit (Azure DevOps)**
If `source-control-revision` is present, call `azure-devops-get-commit` with `commit-id` set to it (try the full hash, then a prefix). Report author, comment, author-date and repository. If it is empty or nothing matches, say the revision is missing or unknown to Azure DevOps and continue.
**Step 3: Find the build and release (Azure DevOps)**
Call `azure-devops-get-build` and look for a build whose build-number matches `build-label` or `app-version`; if the commit repository is known, also pass `repository-id`. Then call `azure-devops-get-release` with `name.contains` set to the app version. Report the build result fields, finish-time and any matching release.
**Step 4: Report**
One section per system: the release, the commit, the build, the release record, then a line saying how well the two systems agree (same revision, same date, or no match).
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* Tools prefixed azure-devops are on the Azure DevOps server; tools prefixed bugsnag are on the Bugsnag server. Both must be connected.
* Read-only job. Never call `bugsnag-link-error-issue`, `bugsnag-create-error-issue`, `bugsnag-assign-error`, `bugsnag-fix-error`, `bugsnag-ignore-error`, `bugsnag-discard-error`, `bugsnag-open-error`, `bugsnag-update-error-severity`, `bugsnag-update-project`, `bugsnag-add-project` or `bugsnag-add-project-collaborator`. The Azure DevOps server has no write tools.
**Validation:**
* If the Bugsnag release has no source control revision, say the join falls back to version text and mark matches as low confidence.
* If several builds match, list them and do not pick one.Who it's for

How it works
What PopdockAI does when you ask
You name the release and your AI assistant traces it into Azure DevOps. It reads both systems and says how sure the match is.
01
Ask
You name the Bugsnag release or version.
02
Read
It reads the release's revision and version in Bugsnag.
03
Match
It finds the Azure DevOps commit, build and release record.
04
Report
You get the matches and how well they agree.
