Structured logging standards: log levels, structured fields, correlation IDs, PII masking, and event naming. TRIGGER when: adding log statements, configuring loggers, or reviewing log output. SKIP: metrics and alerting (use monitoring-observability); error control flow (use error-handling). (Examples use structlog + an OTLP sink.).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Logging Standards Skill

## Purpose
Standards for consistent, useful logging across all application layers.

## Auto-Invoke Triggers
- Adding log statements
- Configuring logging infrastructure
- Debugging issues
- Setting up monitoring

---

## Log Levels

| Level | Use Case | Example |
|-------|----------|---------|
| **TRACE** | Detailed debugging | Variable values, loop iterations |
| **DEBUG** | Diagnostic info | Method entry/exit, state changes |
| **INFO** | Normal operations | Request completed, job started |
| **WARN** | Potential issues | Retry attempt, deprecated usage |
| **ERROR** | Failures | Exception caught, operation failed |
| **FATAL** | System failure | Cannot start, out of memory |

### Level Selection Rules
- Production default: INFO
- Development default: DEBUG
- Never log TRACE in production
- ERROR should always have context

---

## Log Message Format

### Structure
```
[timestamp] [level] [correlation-id] [logger] - message {structured-data}
```

### Example
```
2024-01-15T10:30:45.123Z INFO abc-123-def UserService - User created {"userId": 42, "email": "user@example.com"}
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add komluk/scaffolding/logging-standards@sha256:27170ffe27691486

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260627.c37d831, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
