remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

Integrations

Enables VSCode with GitHub Copilot to access real-time production logs, metrics, and exceptions through the MCP server.
Integrates with OpenTelemetry to gather production telemetry data, enabling access to logs, metrics, and traces for AI-assisted debugging.

Last9 MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server implementation for Last9 that enables AI agents to seamlessly bring real-time production context — logs, metrics, and traces — into your local environment to auto-fix code faster.

Status

Works with Claude desktop app, or Cursor, Windsurf, and VSCode (Github Copilot) IDEs. Implements the following MCP tools:

get_exceptions: Get list of exceptions.
get_service_graph: Get service graph for an endpoint from the exception.
get_logs: Get logs filtered by service name and/or severity level.
get_drop_rules: Get drop rules for logs that determine what logs get filtered out at Last9 Control Plane
add_drop_rule: Create a drop rule for logs at Last9 Control Plane

Tools Documentation

get_exceptions

Retrieves server-side exceptions over a specified time range.

Parameters:

limit (integer, optional): Maximum number of exceptions to return. Default: 20.
start_time_iso (string, optional): Start time in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
end_time_iso (string, optional): End time in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
span_name (string, optional): Name of the span to filter by.

get_service_graph

Gets the upstream and downstream services for a given span name, along with the throughput for each service.

Parameters:

span_name (string, required): Name of the span to get dependencies for.
lookback_minutes (integer, optional): Number of minutes to look back. Default: 60.
start_time_iso (string, optional): Start time in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).

get_logs

Gets logs filtered by optional service name and/or severity level within a specified time range.

Parameters:

service (string, optional): Name of the service to get logs for.
severity (string, optional): Severity of the logs to get.
start_time_iso (string, optional): Start time in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
end_time_iso (string, optional): End time in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
limit (integer, optional): Maximum number of logs to return. Default: 20.

get_drop_rules

Gets drop rules for logs, which determine what logs get filtered out from reaching Last9.

add_drop_rule

Adds a new drop rule to filter out specific logs at Last9 Control Plane

Parameters:

name (string, required): Name of the drop rule.
filters (array, required): List of filter conditions to apply. Each filter has:
- key (string, required): The key to filter on. Only attributes and resource.attributes keys are supported. For resource attributes, use format: resource.attributes[key_name] and for log attributes, use format: attributes[key_name] Double quotes in key names must be escaped.
- value (string, required): The value to filter against.
- operator (string, required): The operator used for filtering. Valid values:
  - "equals"
  - "not_equals"
- conjunction (string, required): The logical conjunction between filters. Valid values:
  - "and"
