{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cloud-logging": {
      "command": "bun",
      "args": ["run", "/path/to/cloud-logging-mcp/src/main.ts"],
      "env": {
        "GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT": "your-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Example Tool Usage

Query Logs

Search and filter logs from Google Cloud Logging.

{
  "tool": "queryLogs",
  "input": {
    "projectId": "my-project",
    "filter": "resource.type=\"cloud_run_revision\" AND severity>=ERROR",
    "orderBy": {
      "timestamp": "desc"
    },
    "pageSize": 50
  }
}

Parameters:

• projectId: GCP project ID

• filter: Log filter query (follows GCP logging query syntax)

• orderBy: Sort order for results

• pageSize: Number of results per page

• pageToken: Token for pagination

• resourceNames: Specific log resources to query

• summaryFields: Fields to include in the summary

Get Log Detail

Retrieve complete details for a specific log entry.

{
  "tool": "getLogDetail",
  "input": {
    "projectId": "my-project",
    "logId": "65f5a7b60000000001234567"
  }
}

Parameters:

• projectId: GCP project ID

• logId: The unique identifier of the log entry

List Projects

List all accessible Google Cloud projects.

{
  "tool": "listProjects",
  "input": {}
}

Parameters: None

Common Filter Examples

• By severity: severity>=ERROR

• By time range: timestamp>="2024-01-01T00:00:00Z"

• By resource: resource.type="cloud_run_revision"

• By text search: textPayload:"connection timeout"

• Combined: resource.type="k8s_container" AND severity=ERROR AND timestamp>="2024-01-01T00:00:00Z"

Troubleshooting

1. Authentication errors: Ensure your Google Cloud credentials are properly configured

2. Permission errors: Check that your account has the logging.logEntries.list permission

3. No results: Verify your filter syntax and that logs exist for your query
