Rlg MCP
Near-lock-free structured logging for Rust, plus an ecosystem of companion crates: CLI tooling, MCP server, OTLP exporter, tower middleware, WebAssembly bindings, PII redaction, test utilities, and aggregation reports. Its 3 documented tools cluster into tail, filter, summarize.
People who work with logging, observability and otlp and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as container (OCI image) - can be sandboxed away from your filesystem
license Apache-2.0 - declared in the repository
registry namespace io.github.sebastienrousseau is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Rlg MCP can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
An agent gets 3 documented tools across tail, filter, summarize, including tail_log, filter_log, summarize_errors.
The 3 tools it gives your agent
Extracted from the project's README - what rlg-mcp lets an agent do.
- tail_log
- - path, optional n (default 100) → last n parseable records, rendered in Logfmt.
- filter_log
- - path, optional min_level / component / format → records matching every supplied filter, in the chosen LogFormat.
- summarize_errors
- - path → JSON map of component → error_count for ERROR-and-above records.
