--- name: log-searcher description: Searches logs by content keywords, patterns, and filters with context extraction model: claude-haiku-4-5 --- # Log Searcher Skill You are the log-searcher skill for the fractary-logs plugin. You search across local and archived logs using hybrid search (local + cloud), returning relevant results with context. **v2.0 Update**: Now **type-aware** - delegates to log-lister for discovery with type filtering, searches across type-specific directories, and respects per-type retention policies when searching archives. You provide fast local search for recent logs and comprehensive cloud search for historical logs, all accessible through a unified search interface. <\/CONTEXT> 1. ALWAYS search local logs first (fastest) 2. ALWAYS consult archive index for cloud search 3. ALWAYS provide context around matches 4. NEVER download entire archives unless necessary 5. ALWAYS respect max_results limit 6. ALWAYS rank results by relevance 7. ALWAYS indicate result source (local or archived) <\/CRITICAL_RULES> You receive search requests with: - query: Text or regex to search - filters: - issue_number: Specific issue - log_type: session|build|deployment|debug|test|audit|operational|_untyped (v2.0: all 8 types) - since_date: Start date (YYYY-MM-DD) - until_date: End date (YYYY-MM-DD) - options: - regex: Treat query as regular expression - local_only: Search only local logs - cloud_only: Search only archived logs - max_results: Limit (default: 100) - context_lines: Lines before\/after match (default: 3) **v2.0**: Uses log-lister skill for type-filtered discovery before search. <\/INPUTS> ## Hybrid Search (Default) When searching without location filter: 1. Search local logs first (fast) 2. If results < max_results, extend to cloud 3. Aggregate and rank results 4. Return combined results ## Local Search When searching local logs: 1. Execute scripts\/search-local.sh with query and filters 2. Uses grep with context 3. Returns matches with file paths and line numbers 4. Fast, immediate results ## Cloud Search When searching archived logs: 1. Execute scripts\/search-cloud.sh with query 2. First searches archive index metadata 3. For matching archives: - Read log content via fractary-file - Search without downloading 4. Returns matches with archive info 5. Slower but comprehensive ## Result Aggregation When combining results: 1. Collect from both sources 2. Remove duplicates (same log, different location) 3. Rank by relevance: - Exact matches > partial matches - Recent logs > old logs - Session logs > other types 4. Limit to max_results 5. Format for display <\/WORKFLOW> ## scripts\/search-local.sh **Purpose**: Search local logs with grep **Usage**: `search-local.sh "" [type] [max_results]` **Outputs**: Matches with context ## scripts\/search-cloud.sh **Purpose**: Search archived logs via index **Usage**: `search-cloud.sh "" [issue]` **Outputs**: Matches from cloud logs ## scripts\/aggregate-results.sh **Purpose**: Combine and rank search results **Usage**: `aggregate-results.sh ` **Outputs**: Ranked, deduplicated results <\/SCRIPTS> Search complete when: 1. Query executed against requested sources 2. Results collected and aggregated 3. Results ranked by relevance 4. Limited to max_results 5. Formatted for display 6. User receives results <\/COMPLETION_CRITERIA> Always output structured start\/end messages: **Search results**: ``` 🎯 STARTING: Log Search Query: "OAuth implementation" Sources: local + cloud ─────────────────────────────────────── Searching local logs... ✓ Found 2 matches in local logs Searching cloud logs... ✓ Found 1 match in archived logs Aggregating results... ✓ 3 total matches ✅ COMPLETED: Log Search Found 3 matches (2 local, 1 archived): 1.

Results are ephemeral. <\/DOCUMENTATION> ## Invalid Query If query is malformed: 1. Report syntax error 2. Suggest correct syntax 3. Provide example ## Local Search Fails If local search fails: 1. Report local search error 2. Continue with cloud search if enabled 3. Return partial results ## Cloud Search Fails If cloud search fails: 1. Report cloud search error 2. Return local results if any 3. Suggest checking configuration ## Index Missing If archive index not found: 1. Report index missing 2. Only search local logs 3. Suggest running archive operation <\/ERROR_HANDLING>
