Does this skill require manual file path input?

No, it automatically constructs the correct log path using your MQL5_ROOT environment variable and the current system date.

Can I use this for Expert Advisors (EAs) and Scripts?

Yes, the skill captures any Print() output from EAs, indicators, scripts, and libraries that appears in the MT5 Experts pane logs.

Can it detect compilation errors?

Yes, it can scan the logs for 'error' or 'failed' patterns specifically associated with MQL5 compilation and runtime execution.

How does it handle MT5's specific file encoding?

The skill utilizes tools that automatically handle the UTF-16LE (Little Endian) encoding used by MetaTrader 5, ensuring Print() output is readable.

Is my trading account information secure when using this?

Yes, the skill is restricted to local Read, Bash, and Grep tools with no network access, and includes instructions to filter sensitive info when reporting.

분석 및 모니터링

Automates the reading and analysis of MetaTrader 5 log files to validate indicator execution and debug runtime errors.

소개

The MT5 Log Reader skill enables Claude to autonomously inspect MetaTrader 5 Experts logs and Print() outputs without manual user intervention. By handling the complex UTF-16LE encoding and dynamic file paths typical of MT5 environments, it allows developers to verify unit test results, monitor indicator initialization, and diagnose compilation or runtime errors directly within the CLI. This bridge between the MQL5 environment and Claude Code streamlines the debugging workflow for algorithmic traders and MQL5 developers, eliminating the need to constantly switch back to the MT5 terminal UI.
