Superlog Overview

The Superlog MCP server connects an agent to Superlog’s OpenTelemetry observability workspace for querying logs, traces, metrics, and incidents. Superlog ingests telemetry, groups related signals into incidents, and provides a local-first surface for investigating production systems. The open-source edition includes a web app, API, OTLP ingest proxy, background workers, and telemetry query storage. Reach for it when an agent needs access to application observability data during debugging or incident investigation.

Primary Use Cases for Superlog:
  • Query application logs during debugging
  • Inspect traces for production failures
  • Review metrics related to an incident
  • Group noisy telemetry into incidents
