Common Debugging Workflows
Find Recent Errors
{ "command": "infra logs view --level error --since 1h" }
{ "command": "infra logs summary --since 1h" }
Debug a Failed Request
- Find the error:
{ "command": "infra logs view --level error --since 1h" }
- Get the request ID from the error, then audit:
{ "command": "infra logs audit <request-id> --full" }
- View the full trace:
{ "command": "infra logs trace show <trace-id> --all" }
Debug Agent Issues
{ "command": "admin agents logs <agent-name>" }
{ "command": "infra logs search \"agent\" --level error --since 1h" }
Debug MCP Server Issues
{ "command": "plugins mcp logs <server-name>" }
{ "command": "infra logs tools --since 1h" }
Local Log Files (Terminal Only)
MCP servers and agents write to log files in the logs/ directory:
# List available log files
ls -la logs/
# View MCP server logs
tail -100 logs/mcp-content-manager.log
tail -100 logs/mcp-systemprompt.log
# View agent logs
tail -100 logs/agent-linkedin.log
tail -100 logs/agent-blog.log
# Search for specific errors in log files
grep -i "error\|failed" logs/mcp-content-manager.log | tail -50
grep "research_content\|gemini" logs/mcp-content-manager.log | tail -20
Note: Local log files only contain logs from locally-running services. When using a remote profile (e.g., production), use plugins mcp logs to fetch logs from the remote database.
Database Queries for Tool Executions
Query the mcp_tool_executions table for detailed tool execution history:
{ "command": "infra db query \"SELECT created_at, tool_name, status, error_message FROM mcp_tool_executions WHERE tool_name = 'research_content' ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 5\"" }
{ "command": "infra db query \"SELECT created_at, server_name, tool_name, status, error_message FROM mcp_tool_executions WHERE status != 'success' ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 10\"" }
Key columns in mcp_tool_executions:
tool_name,server_name- identify the toolstatus- success/failureerror_message- detailed error textexecution_time_ms- performance metrictrace_id- correlate with other logs
Local vs Remote Logs
| Profile Type | Log Source | Command |
|---|---|---|
| Local | Log files in logs/ |
tail logs/mcp-*.log |
| Local | Database | plugins mcp logs <server> |
| Remote/Production | Remote database only | plugins mcp logs <server> |
When debugging production issues, always use CLI commands which fetch from the remote database. Local log files won't contain production errors.
Troubleshooting
No logs found -- check time range with --since. Logs may have been cleaned up.
Too many logs -- use --level error or --level warn to filter. Add --tail 50 to limit results.
Can't find specific error -- use infra logs search "pattern" to search by keyword.
Need full context -- use infra logs audit <request-id> --full for complete request trail.
Generic "Tool execution failed" -- check MCP logs with plugins mcp logs <server> or query mcp_tool_executions table for error_message.
Local logs empty but tool failing -- you may be on a remote profile. Check with admin session show and use database queries instead.
