Datadog Logs

Search, process, and archive logs with cost awareness.

Prerequisites

Datadog Pup should already be installed. See Setup Pup if not.

Command Execution Order (Token-Efficient)

For scoped commands, use this order:

1. Check context first (prior outputs, conversation, saved values).
2. If a required value is missing, run a discovery command first.
3. If still ambiguous, ask the user to confirm.
4. Then run the target command.
5. Avoid speculative commands likely to fail.

Quick Start

Search Logs

# Basic search
pup logs search --query="status:error" --from="1h"

# With filters
pup logs search --query="service:api status:error" --from="1h" --limit 100

# JSON output
pup logs search --query="@http.status_code:>=500" --from="1h"
