AI Analysis Content

The AI provides detailed explanations including:

Log Classification

  • Log Type: Identifies the type of log (warning, error, info, etc.)
  • Severity Assessment: Evaluates the importance and urgency
  • Context Understanding: Interprets the business meaning

Technical Details

  • Source Information: Where the log was generated

Example AI Analysis

For a database connection error, the AI provides:

The log message 'Database connection timeout after 30 seconds' is a critical error.

• It was generated by the ConnectionManager method in /src/Services/DatabaseService.cs at line 145.
• The application version is 2.1.4.
• The log level is Critical, indicating a system failure that requires immediate attention.
• This suggests the database server may be overloaded or experiencing connectivity issues.
