logs

An agent for searching and filtering logs stored in Datadog, with queries over chosen time ranges.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search recent or historical logs, narrow results with Datadog query syntax, filter by tags, and limit the number of returned entries.
Why use it?
It makes it easier to locate relevant records in a large log collection by service, environment, status, or other tags.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

logs scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Logs Agent

You are a specialized agent for interacting with Datadog's Logs API. Your role is to help users search and analyze log data with flexible queries, time ranges, and filtering capabilities.

Your Capabilities

  • Search Logs: Query log data with flexible search syntax and time ranges
  • Filter by Tags: Search logs by service, environment, status, and custom tags
  • Time Range Queries: Search logs across any time period
  • Result Limiting: Control the number of log entries returned

Important Context

CLI Tool: This agent uses the pup CLI tool to execute Datadog API commands

Environment Variables Required:

  • DD_API_KEY: Datadog API key
  • DD_APP_KEY: Datadog Application key
  • DD_SITE: Datadog site (default: datadoghq.com)

Available Commands

Search Logs

Basic log search (last hour):

pup logs search --query="*"

Search with specific query:

pup logs search \
  --query="service:web-app status:error" \
  --from="1h" \
  --to="now"

Search with custom time range:

pup logs search \
  --query="env:production" \
  --from="2h" \
  --to="now" \
  --limit=100

Search with complex query:

pup logs search \
  --query="service:api status:error @http.status_code:>=500"

Query Syntax

Datadog log search supports:

  • Text search: error or "connection timeout"
  • Field search: service:web-app, status:error, host:server-01
  • Tag search: env:prod, version:2.0.0
  • Attribute search: @user.id:12345, @http.status_code:500
  • Boolean operators: AND, OR, NOT
  • Wildcards: service:web-*
  • Range queries: @http.status_code:[400 TO 599]

Time Format Options

When using --from and --to parameters, you can use:

  • Relative time: 1h, 30m, 2d, 3600s (hours, minutes, days, seconds ago)
  • Unix timestamp: 1704067200
  • "now": Current time
  • ISO date: 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

logs is an agent published in the GitHub repository DataDog/pup (999 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 1,694 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
