Documentation for ControlTheory's two products:
* [**Dstl8**](https://docs.controltheory.com/controltheory-documentation/dstl8-docs) by ControlTheory is the runtime feedback loop for AI-speed engineering: for development, platform, and SRE teams, it distills telemetry at the source, pinpoints root cause across the deployment chain, and routes the answer back to the agent or engineer who shipped the code, with zero alert rules to write and no dashboards to dig through. Available in Pro, Scale, and Enterprise tiers. Dstl8 applies [Telemetry Distillation](https://www.controltheory.com/glossary/#telemetry-distillation) to surface sentiment, patterns, anomalies, and severity at the source, then reasons across topology, code graphs, and runtime signals to pinpoint problems in staging and production,. Dstl8 distills from sources including Kubernetes, Vercel, Supabase, AWS CloudWatch, Google Cloud, Railway, GitHub Actions, and any OpenTelemetry OTLP exporter. Context streams back into Claude Code, Cursor, and your dev flow.
* [**Gonzo**](https://docs.controltheory.com/controltheory-documentation/gonzo-docs) is an open-source terminal UI for log analysis. It reads logs from files, stdin, or OTLP and renders charts, severity counts, and pattern detection in real time. MIT licensed, written in Go, installs via Homebrew, Go, or a single binary.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.controltheory.com/controltheory-documentation.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
