🚀 I Built an Open-Source CLI Tool That Fixes Errors From Logs Instantly.

Dwebugging logs has always been painful.

Most of the time, the workflow looks like this:

  • Copy error from terminal
  • Google it
  • Open multiple StackOverflow threads
  • Try random fixes

This process is slow, repetitive, and frustrating.


💡 The Idea

I wanted something simpler:

👉 What if logs could explain themselves?

So I built a small CLI tool that:

  • Extracts errors from logs
  • Explains the root cause
  • Suggests exact fix commands

âš¡ How It Works

Just run:

autofix analyze app.log

Example:

Input:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'

Output:

Error Type: ModuleNotFoundError

Fix: pip install requests


🧠 Behind the Scenes

The tool:

  1. Parses log files
  2. Extracts relevant error segments
  3. Sends them to an AI model
  4. Returns structured debugging output

🎯 Why This Matters

Debugging is something every developer does daily.

Even saving a few minutes per error can:

  • Improve productivity
  • Reduce frustration
  • Speed up development cycles

🔓 Open Source

I’ve made this project fully open-source so anyone can:

  • Use it
  • Improve it
  • Contribute

🤔 Looking for Feedback

I’d love to know:

  • How do you currently debug logs?
  • What would make this tool more useful?
  • What features should I add next?

🔮 Next Steps

Planned improvements:

  • Real-time log monitoring
  • Multi-error detection
  • Offline support
