Use this skill when investigating issues through logs. Activate when the user needs to analyze log files, search for specific events in logs, correlate logs across services, investigate incidents through logs, or extract insights from application logs.
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
# Log Forensics
Extract insights and trace issues through application logs.
## When to Use
- Investigating production incidents
- Tracing request flows across services
- Finding the root cause of failures
- Analyzing system behavior over time
- Correlating events across components
## Log Structure
### Standardized Log Format
```typescript
interface StructuredLog {
timestamp: string; // ISO 8601
level: 'debug' | 'info' | 'warn' | 'error' | 'fatal';
message: string;
service: string;
traceId?: string; // For distributed tracing
spanId?: string;
userId?: string;
requestId?: string;
context: Record<string, unknown>;
error?: {
name: string;
message: string;
stack?: string;
};
}
// Example
{
"timestamp": "2026-02-04T10:30:45.123Z",
"level": "error",
"message": "Payment processing failed",
"service": "payment-service",
"traceId": "abc123",
"requestId": "req-456",
"userId": "user-789",
"context": {
"amount": 99.99,
"currency": "USD",
"provider": "stripe"
},
"error": {
"name": "PaymentError",
"message": "Card declined",
"stack": "..."
}
}
```

How to install
mdr add latestaiagents/agent-skills/log-forensics@sha256:3883bfe7ee76345bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260205.a0b8780, 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.
