Read MetaTrader 5 log files. TRIGGERS - MT5 logs, Experts pane, indicator errors, compilation errors.
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
# MT5 Log Reader Read MetaTrader 5 log files directly to access Print() output from indicators, scripts, and expert advisors without requiring manual Experts pane inspection. > **Self-Evolving Skill**: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues. ## Purpose Implement "Option 3" dual logging pattern: - **Print()** - MT5 log files (human-readable via Experts pane) - **CSV files** - Structured data (programmatic analysis) Claude Code can autonomously read both outputs without user intervention. ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when: - Validating MT5 indicator/script execution - Checking compilation or runtime errors - Analyzing Print() debug output - Verifying unit test results (Test_PatternDetector, Test_ArrowManager) - User mentions checking "Experts pane" manually ## Log File Location MT5 logs are stored at: ``` $MQL5_ROOT/Program Files/MetaTrader 5/MQL5/Logs/YYYYMMDD.log ``` **File Format**: - Encoding: UTF-16LE (Little Endian) - Structure: Tab-separated fields (timestamp, source, message) …

How to install
mdr add terrylica/cc-skills/log-reader@sha256:6e0a4b8df03d2f5fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260401.d376871, 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.
