search	string	No	Filter by text content (substring match)
limit	number	No	Maximum entries to return
since	string	No	Only logs after this timestamp

Response:

{
  "logs": [
    {
      "level": "error",
      "text": "TypeError: Cannot read property 'user' of undefined",
      "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z",
      "location": "app.js:42:15"
    },
    {
      "level": "warn",
      "text": "Deprecation warning: componentWillMount is deprecated",
      "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:29:58.000Z",
      "location": "UserProfile.js:12:5"
    },
    {
      "level": "log",
      "text": "User logged in: john@example.com",
      "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:29:55.000Z",
      "location": "auth.js:78:10"
    }
  ],
  "total": 3
}

Example:

Show all console logs
Show only errors from the console
Are there any warnings about deprecation?
Search console logs for "TypeError"

clear_console

Clear all captured console logs. Useful for focusing on logs from a specific action.

Parameters: None

Clear console logs
Now click the button and show me any errors

---

Log Levels

Level	Description	Common Use
log	General output	Debug info, state logging
info	Informational	Application status
warn	Warnings	Deprecations, potential issues
error	Errors	Exceptions, failures

---

Automatic Capture

Console logs are automatically captured from:

• console.log(), console.info(), console.warn(), console.error()
• Uncaught exceptions
• Promise rejections
• Network errors (some browsers)

What’s captured:

Data	Description
Level	log, info, warn, error
Text	Full message content
Timestamp	When the log occurred
Location	Source file and line number (when available)

Common Patterns

Find All Errors

Show all console errors

Debug Specific Issue

Search console for "undefined"
Show logs containing "API"

Isolate Action

Clear console
Click the submit button
Show any new errors

Check for Warnings

Show all console warnings
Are there any deprecation warnings?

---

Tips

Combining Filters

Use multiple parameters for precise filtering:

Show errors containing "TypeError"

Time-based Filtering

Focus on recent logs:

Show console logs from the last 30 seconds
Show logs since I clicked the button

Correlating with Network

Errors often relate to failed requests:

Show console errors
Show failed network requests
Explain the relationship

Error Analysis

For deeper error analysis, use the explain_error tool which combines:

• Console errors
• Failed network requests
• React component state (if applicable)
• Suggested fixes

Explain the error on this page
