teemux

Teemux is a tool for aggregating logs from multiple processes into a single view, designed to simplify log management for users running several services or applications concurrently. It enables users to monitor and filter logs without restarting long-running processes, addressing a common challenge in development and operations workflows.

The platform operates with zero configuration, as the first process started with teemux initiates the server, and subsequent processes connect automatically. Users can access log views through a web browser, which supports colored output, or via curl for plain text access. Teemux supports pattern-based filtering, allowing inclusion or exclusion of log entries using wildcards. It also features leader election with automatic failover, ensuring continued availability if the primary process exits.

Teemux can be used via the terminal or browser, and it integrates with MCP to provide AI agents with access to logs. Through MCP, agents can retrieve recent logs, search logs using patterns, list process names, and clear the log buffer. Installation is available via npm, and the tool can be run globally or with npx for quick use.

This tool is suitable for developers and others who need to aggregate and interact with logs from multiple processes, especially in environments where maintaining uninterrupted service is important. Its persistent server approach allows multiple AI agents to access logs as needed, without disrupting the development flow.
