Forensic Log FAQs

Question 1

What is Forensic Log and its primary purpose?

Accepted Answer

Forensic Log is a high-performance Model Context Protocol (MCP) server engineered for AI-driven log analysis. Its primary purpose is to empower AI models like Claude to rapidly analyze massive log files (gigabytes of data) that would typically exceed context window limitations or traditional tool capabilities.

Question 2

Can Forensic Log handle log files larger than available RAM?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a core feature of Forensic Log is its streaming processing and lazy evaluation capabilities. This allows it to efficiently analyze and process log files that are significantly larger than your system's available memory, making it ideal for big data scenarios.

Question 3

What types of log formats does Forensic Log support?

Accepted Answer

Forensic Log offers multi-format support including Apache/Nginx Combined logs, Syslog (RFC 3164/5424), JSON Lines (NDJSON), and CSV/TSV. It can often auto-detect the format for seamless analysis.

Question 4

How does Forensic Log achieve such fast log analysis?

Accepted Answer

It leverages several advanced techniques: SIMD-accelerated parsers for vectorized field detection, zero-copy processing, parallel chunk processing with `rayon`, lazy field extraction (only parsing what's needed), and predicate pushdown for efficient filtering during scans. This makes aggregations 5-50x faster than tools like `awk`.

Question 5

How does Forensic Log integrate with AI models like Claude?

Accepted Answer

Designed as an 'AI-Native' tool, Forensic Log integrates seamlessly via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Once configured, Claude can directly invoke its specialized tools (e.g., `analyze_logs`, `aggregate_logs`, `search_pattern`) to query, filter, and summarize log data using natural language.
