Releases: Yaici-Yacine/mcp-logs
v0.1.1
🎉 MCP Logs v0.1.1 - Configuration System Complete
🚀 New Features
1. config set Command
Modify configuration values directly from CLI:
mcp-log-agent config set agent.verbose true
mcp-log-agent config set agent.connection_timeout 10
mcp-log-agent config set output.format plain
mcp-log-agent config set filters.min_level warn
mcp-log-agent config set agent.default_command '["npm", "run", "dev"]'Supports all types: boolean, integer, string, enum, array
2. Field-by-Field Config Merging
True hierarchical config merging that preserves unset fields:
- Local configs only override specified fields
- Unset fields inherit from global config or defaults
- Proper TOML table merging at file level
Priority: ENV > Local > Global > Default
3. Extended Environment Variables
New environment variables for complete control:
Colors:
MCP_LOG_COLOR_ERROR_FG=bright_red
MCP_LOG_COLOR_WARN_FG=bright_yellow
MCP_LOG_COLOR_INFO_FG=cyan
MCP_LOG_COLOR_DEBUG_FG=bright_blueFilters:
MCP_LOG_FILTER_MIN_LEVEL=warnAll settings:
- Agent: socket_path, default_project, verbose, connection_timeout, retry_attempts
- Output: colors, format, show_timestamps, show_pid
- Performance: buffer_size, flush_interval
4. Partial Config Support
All structs now have serde defaults:
- Create minimal configs with only the fields you need
- Missing fields automatically use defaults
- No need to specify every parameter

MCP Logs - Installation Guide
Prerequisites
- Bun runtime (for MCP server)
- Linux or macOS (Windows not supported yet)
Install Bun
curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bashInstallation
Step 1: Install the Log Agent
Option A: From .deb package (Debian/Ubuntu)
# Download the package
wget https://github.com/Yaici-Yacine/mcp-logs/releases/download/v0.1.0/mcp-log-agent_0.1.0_amd64.deb
# Install
sudo dpkg -i mcp-log-agent_0.1.0_amd64.deb
# Verify installation
mcp-log-agent --versionOption B: From crates.io
cargo install mcp-log-agentOption C: From source
git clone https://github.com/Yaici-Yacine/mcp-logs.git
cd mcp-logs/log-agent
cargo install --path .Step 2: Install the MCP Server
# Using npm
npm install -g mcp-logs
# Or using bun
bun install -g mcp-logs
# Or using pnpm
pnpm install -g mcp-logsConfiguration
Step 3: Configure your MCP Client
Choose your client and add the configuration:
OpenCode
Edit ~/.config/opencode/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-logs": {
"command": "mcp-logs"
}
}
}ou
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-logs": {
"type": "local",
"enabled": true,
"command": ["bun","x","mcp-logs@latest"]
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Edit the config file:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-logs": {
"command": "mcp-logs"
}
}
}Cline (VSCode Extension)
Edit VSCode settings.json:
{
"cline.mcpServers": {
"mcp-logs": {
"command": "mcp-logs"
}
}
}Step 4: Restart your MCP Client
Restart OpenCode, Claude Desktop, or VSCode to load the MCP server.
Usage
Capture logs from your application
# Basic usage
mcp-log-agent run --project my-app npm run dev
# Node.js project
mcp-log-agent run --project api npm start
# Rust project
mcp-log-agent run --project backend cargo run
# Python project
mcp-log-agent run --project ml-script python train.py
# Any shell command
mcp-log-agent run --project demo bash ./script.shMultiple projects simultaneously
Run multiple agents in separate terminals to monitor multiple projects:
# Terminal 1 - Frontend
mcp-log-agent run --project frontend npm run dev
# Terminal 2 - Backend
mcp-log-agent run --project backend cargo run
# Terminal 3 - API
mcp-log-agent run --project api python main.pyAll logs are captured by the same MCP server and can be queried together.
Query logs via MCP
In your MCP client, you can ask in natural language:
Show me the recent logs
What errors occurred in my-app?
Search for "database" in the logs
List all connected projects
Show log statistics
What warnings happened in the last 5 minutes?
Available MCP Tools

- 🔍 Real-time search: Search logs as they arrive
- 📊 Multi-project support: Monitor multiple projects simultaneously
- 🚀 Zero configuration: Works out of the box
- 🔌 Fast communication: Unix socket for minimal latency
- 💾 In-memory storage: 10,000 logs max (FIFO)
- 🎯 Automatic log level detection: Based on message keywords
Troubleshooting
"mcp-logs: command not found"
Ensure Bun is installed and in your PATH:
curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash
source ~/.bashrc # or restart terminalVerify Bun is accessible:
bun --version"Socket not found" error
The MCP server must be running. It starts automatically when your MCP client (OpenCode, Claude Desktop, Cline) loads it based on the configuration in mcp.json.
Check that:
- The MCP server is configured correctly in your client's config file
- Your MCP client has been restarted after adding the configuration
- Bun is installed and accessible
Logs not appearing in MCP client
- Verify the MCP server is configured correctly
- Restart your MCP client completely
- Check that log-agent is running:
mcp-log-agent run --project test echo "hello" - Check for errors in your MCP client's logs/console
Permission denied on .deb installation
Use sudo for installation:
sudo dpkg -i mcp-log-agent_0.1.0_amd64.deb"Failed to connect to socket" in log-agent
The MCP server might not be running. Make sure your MCP client (OpenCode, Claude Desktop, Cline) is running with the correct configuration.
If the error persists, the log-agent will still display logs in the terminal, but they won't be sent to the MCP server for querying.
Advanced Configuration
Change socket path
If you need to change the Unix socket path, edit the source files:
MCP Server (mcp-logs/src/server/index.ts):
export const SOCKET_PATH = "/tmp/log-agent.sock";Log Agent (log-agent/src/socket.rs):
pub const SOCKET_PATH: &str = "/tmp/log-agent.sock";Then rebuild both components.
Adjust log storage limit
Edit mcp-logs/index.ts:
const logStore = new LogStore(10000); // Change to desired limitEnable verbose mode
For debugging, enable verbose logging in the MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-logs": {
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "/path/to/mcp-logs/index.ts"],
"env": {
"VERBOSE": "true"
}
}
}
}Uninstall
Remove log-agent
From .deb:
sudo dpkg -r mcp-log-agentFrom cargo:
cargo uninstall mcp-log-agentRemove MCP server
# npm
npm uninstall -g mcp-logs
# bun
bun pm uninstall -g mcp-logs
# pnpm
pnpm uninstall -g mcp-logsRemove MCP client configuration
Remove the mcp-logs entry from your MCP client's configuration file.
