Loggerhead
Read the logs, metrics, and traces of the app you are editing, from the Loggerhead Mac app.
Installation
Ajoutez ceci à la configuration MCP de votre client (Claude Desktop : claude_desktop_config.json ; Cursor : .cursor/mcp.json ; VS Code et les autres utilisent la même forme « mcpServers »).

Loggerhead MCP server
Your coding agent reads your app's logs, metrics, and traces.
Loggerhead is a native Mac app that receives OpenTelemetry logs, metrics, and traces from the software you run on your own Mac, and stores them in a DuckDB file on your disk. The MCP server runs inside the app. This repository holds loggerhead-mcp, the small bridge that connects Claude, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, or any other MCP client to it.
The tools read the telemetry. Seven tools change the lint rules of a workspace, each with a reason that the user sees and can undo in the app. One tool marks a finding fixed after a code change. The endpoint listens on loopback only. Nothing leaves the Mac.
The Loggerhead app must be installed and running. Download it first. The bridge exits when the app is not running. The free tier includes the MCP server.
Install
Claude Desktop
Download loggerhead-mcp.mcpb from the latest release and open it. Claude Desktop installs the extension.
Claude Code
claude mcp add loggerhead -- "/Applications/Loggerhead.app/Contents/Resources/loggerhead-mcp"
Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, and other stdio clients
Every stdio client takes the same two values. The .mcp.json in this repository is the file to copy:
{
"mcpServers": {
"loggerhead": {
"command": "/Applications/Loggerhead.app/Contents/Resources/loggerhead-mcp"
}
}
}
The app itself writes this entry for you: open Settings › AI and click Add beside your tool.
The bridge finds the app by itself on a fixed ladder of local ports. You set no port, and it needs no permission to read the app's files. Full instructions: Set up the MCP server.
Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
query_logs | Search log records by text, severity, and time. |
query_metrics | Read time-series metrics by name and time range. |
query_traces | Find traces by service, operation, duration, and time. |
get_trace | Read every span of one trace. |
list_environments | List every workspace and environment on this Mac, with the receiver ports. |
get_receiver_info | Report the effective OTLP ports and the addresses to send telemetry to. |
query_improvements | List the telemetry-lint findings: noisy logs, unbounded labels, secrets, lost trace context. |
list_lint_rules | List the lint rules of a workspace with their state, thresholds, exceptions, ignored findings, and recent changes. |
query_ai_findings | List the findings of the last AI analysis run. It does not start a run. |
set_lint_rule_enabled | Switch a lint rule on or off for a workspace, with a reason. |
set_lint_threshold | Set one threshold of a lint rule for a workspace, with a reason. |
reset_lint_threshold | Put one threshold of a lint rule back to its default, with a reason. |
add_lint_exception | Hide the findings of one lint rule for a service, metric, attribute key, operation, or log message, with a reason. |
remove_lint_exception | Remove one lint rule exception, with a reason. |
ignore_finding | Ignore one lint finding by its id, with a reason. |
unignore_finding | Stop the ignore of one lint finding, with a reason. |
mark_finding_fixed | Mark one lint finding fixed after a code change, so the app judges it by the telemetry after the fix. |
One resource, loggerhead://stats, reports the total counts of logs, metrics, and spans. Every parameter is in the tools reference.
Privacy Policy
The bridge and the server read telemetry from the Loggerhead app on the same Mac and hand it to the MCP client you connected. They collect nothing about you, they store nothing of their own, they share nothing with a third party, and they open no network connection except to 127.0.0.1. Data retention is the app's: the telemetry lives in a DuckDB file on your disk for as long as the app's retention setting keeps it, and you can delete the file. The full policy of the publisher, Rubics Code, is at https://getloggerhead.com/privacy. Contact: support@getloggerhead.com.
