Practical guide
Filter long logs before asking AI for help
Use chocoGrep to combine keywords, regular expressions, AND/OR and exclusion filters. Narrow down relevant lines for troubleshooting and AI-assisted analysis.
Find the relevant evidence first
Use the browser tool to find errors, related identifiers and relevant processing steps in a long log. No installation is needed.
Build a focused view
- Paste the log into the input area.
- Set keywords, AND/OR conditions or a regular expression. Exclude noisy lines where useful.
- Use separate tabs for different filters. Line numbers and highlighting help relate each result to the source.
An example request for AI
“These log lines relate to an error. Explain the sequence of events and separate confirmed observations from questions that need further investigation.”
Check surrounding context before drawing conclusions. Review contact details and credentials before sharing. The PII-Fi Scan log-sharing guide (Japanese) describes a separate workflow for reviewing and masking personal information.
