Triagic + Confluent / Kafka: ticket investigations over your infrastructure, read-only

Inspect topics, consumer-group lag, schemas, and connectors, and read messages to trace one that never arrived. Only read tools are enabled. Triagic connects to Confluent / Kafka from the desktop app on each member's machine, with a credential you configure, and shows every call it makes while it investigates a ticket. Nothing is copied out of Confluent / Kafka.

What you can ask

  • Ask Confluent / Kafka which import-worker pods restarted today and why
  • In Confluent / Kafka, is the payments service running the version we deployed at 16:02?
  • Pull the last 200 log lines from the failing container in Confluent / Kafka
  • Which Confluent / Kafka workspace changed last week, and what did the plan touch?
  • Is the consumer group for order events in Confluent / Kafka lagging, and by how much?

What the agent can do

Triagic exposes every tool the Confluent / Kafka server annotates as read-only, and nothing else. An explicit allowlist of read tools passed to the server; produce-message, delete-topics and every create tool are dropped.

Connect in three steps

  1. 1

    Mint a read-only credential in Confluent / Kafka

    Create a dedicated user or token that can only read. An explicit allowlist of read tools passed to the server; produce-message, delete-topics and every create tool are dropped.

  2. 2

    Add it in the Triagic portal

    Integrations, then Add shared data source, then Confluent / Kafka.

    • Bootstrap servers: Comma-separated broker addresses, ports included.
    • Kafka API key: Confluent Cloud → Cluster → API keys. Keys are per-cluster.
    • Kafka API secret
  3. 3

    Let a desktop pick it up

    Saving validates the shape of what you typed. The first desktop app to sync starts Confluent / Kafka locally and reports running or degraded with the error text.

Field-by-field setup, TLS options and the error table: Confluent / Kafka in the docs.

Read-only, by construction

An explicit allowlist of read tools passed to the server; produce-message, delete-topics and every create tool are dropped.

FAQ

Can Triagic change anything in Confluent / Kafka?
No. An explicit allowlist of read tools passed to the server; produce-message, delete-topics and every create tool are dropped. Give it a read-only credential as well, so the guarantee does not rest on one layer.
What do I need to connect Confluent / Kafka?
Bootstrap servers, Kafka API key, Kafka API secret. The desktop app on a member's machine starts the connection; the portal never holds a live process.
Does Confluent / Kafka cost extra?
No. Every connector is included in the seat price. Start a 14-day trial without a card.
