It provides Claude with direct access to log files, making it easy to troubleshoot MCP integrations and understand how Claude interacts with your tools. - **Multi-platform Support**: Works on macOS, Windows, and Linux with platform-specific log paths - **Smart Filtering**: Find specific log entries with case-insensitive text search - **Paginated Browsing**: Navigate large log collections efficiently - **Size Management**: Handles large log files with intelligent truncation - **Seamless Claude Integration**: Works directly with Claude Desktop ## 🚀 Quick Start Install directly from GitHub: ```bash # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/klara-research/MCP-Analyzer.git cd MCP-Analyzer # Install dependencies npm i ``` Build and run: ```bash # Compile TypeScript npx tsc ``` ## 🔌 Connecting to Claude Add the server to your Claude Desktop configuration: ```json { "mcpServers": { "log-reader": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/absolute/path/MCP-Analyzer/build" ] } } } ``` Then restart Claude Desktop. ## 📋 Available Parameters The log reader supports these parameters: | Parameter | Description | Default | |-----------|-------------|---------| | `lines` | Number of lines to read from each log file | 100 | | `filter` | Text to filter log entries by (case-insensitive) | "" | | `customPath` | Custom path to log directory | OS-specific | | `fileLimit` | Maximum number of files to read per page | 5 | | `page` | Page number for pagination | 1 | ## 💡 Example Usage Ask Claude to use the log reader tool: ``` Can you check my MCP logs for any connection errors in the last day? ``` Or with specific parameters: ``` Can you look through MCP logs with filter="error" and lines=50 to find initialization issues? ``` ## ⚙️ How It Works 1. The server automatically detects your OS and finds the appropriate log directory 2. It locates all MCP log files and sorts them by modification time (newest first) 3. The requested page of log files is retrieved based on pagination settings 4. Files are processed with size limits to prevent overwhelming responses 5. Filtered content is returned in a structured format with pagination details ## 📄 License MIT License
