What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides an efficient way to capture and triage logs in Kubernetes environments, allowing for real-time analysis and incident response.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Ephemeral Log Capture: Capture and store logs temporarily for load testing and incident investigation.
• Real-time TUI: Monitor and analyze logs in real-time with a command-line interface.
• Sidecar Injection: Automatically inject a log-forwarding sidecar into Kubernetes workloads without changing logging configurations.
• Replay: Replay captured logs at original speed or fast-forward for analysis.
• Analysis: Summarize, filter, convert logs to different formats, and scan for anomalies.
• Cluster Safety: Validate cluster readiness, detect orphaned sidecars, and show tapped workloads.
• Use Case: During a load test, use this Skill to capture and analyze logs in real-time, identify issues, and troubleshoot them promptly.
