Logsum compresses log files to summary that matters, then ask your LLM
logsum A lightweight, local-first CLI tool that compresses raw application logs into a token-optimized Markdown format designed for LLM consumption. The Problem Raw logs are filled with redundant timestamps, boilerplate stack traces, and thousands of duplicate lines. Passing them directly to LLMs wastes context window, increases API costs, and dilutes diagnostic accuracy.

logsum A lightweight, local-first CLI tool that compresses raw application logs into a token-optimized Markdown format designed for LLM consumption. The Problem Raw logs are filled with redundant timestamps, boilerplate stack traces, and thousands of duplicate lines. Passing them directly to LLMs wastes context window, increases API costs, and dilutes diagnostic accuracy. The Solution logsum is a deterministic engine that strips noise, collapses repeating events, and packages the remaining anomalies into a structured Analysis Matrix that LLMs can parse instantly and cheaply.
