Does anyone know of a CLI utility that can take a bunch of logs, parameters like which log level to focus on and maybe a few others, pipe that to an LLM, and get back an executive summary of any problems found, trends, potential issues, etc.?
As a screen reader user, I can't stand having to read logs because they're in about the least speech-friendly format ever (first the timestamp, next the level, then finally the thing I care about, rinse/repeat for each and every line.) Didn't occur to me until recently that an LLM might be a good solution for dumping in a bunch of logs and getting back some succinct analysis.
Asking because if it doesn't exist, I might score some work time to build it. But I'd rather not if someone already has.
@nolan Depending on what kind of environment these logs are coming from, confidentiality might require that you use a self-hosted instance of one of the open or semi-open LLMs.
In the meantime, maybe you could play with using a shell pipeline to massage the logs into a more speech-friendly format, e.g. filter by log level and put the timestamp last.
