Can I watch logs update in real-time?

Yes, by using the --follow argument, the skill will stream new log entries to your terminal as they happen.

What should I do if no logs are found?

If no logs are found, the daemon likely hasn't been started. Use the /asciinema-tools:daemon-start command to initialize the background process.

Which log files does this skill monitor?

It accesses the main chunker.log as well as the launchd-stdout.log and launchd-stderr.log located in your ~/.asciinema/logs directory.

How can I filter for errors only?

You can use the --errors argument to filter the log output for lines containing ERROR, WARN, or FAIL.
