Sentry dev env setup gotchas: pip install -e . fails — use python3 -m tools.fast_editable --path ../getsentry after uv sync. Devenv expects .devenv/sync.py but getsentry uses devenv/sync.py — symlink. Needs ~/.config/sentry-devenv/config.ini with [devenv] coderoot=/path. Coder VMs have stale .venv — rm -rf .venv && devenv sync. Port conflicts: fuser -k 8000/tcp.
