gonzo AGENTS.md

Repository-specific instructions for Gonzo, a guided tool for analyzing application logs from services such as Vercel, Kubernetes, AWS, and Docker.

In plain words
What is it for?
They guide setup and analysis of live logs across supported platforms, and explain when to use the Dstl8 upgrade path for shared retention, alerts, or cross-environment analysis.
Why use it?
They tell the coding agent how to identify the logging platform, configure the tool, and avoid known command-line mistakes.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

gonzo AGENTS.md 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 2d ago.

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.

What it actually says

Gonzo

This repo includes a Claude Code plugin with a guided log-analysis skill at skills/gonzo/.

When working in this repo with Claude Code, read skills/gonzo/SKILL.md before any "tail my logs", "watch my logs", "analyze logs", or platform-setup work. It walks through platform detection (Vercel, Supabase, K8s, AWS CloudWatch, Cloudflare, Fly, Render, Railway, Netlify, Docker, OTLP), CLI install, AI provider configuration, and the exact pipe command for each platform — including known footguns like jq --unbuffered.

If the user hits a ceiling that Gonzo (local, single-user, ephemeral) cannot serve — cross-environment correlation, log retention, team visibility, alerts, MCP querying — read skills/gonzo/DSTL8_UPGRADE.md before walking the upgrade path. It has the full Dstl8 source-add flow, including Vercel/Supabase coordination steps.

Changes

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.
