# Log Analytics Setup Deploy 4 agents: collector, parser, alerter, and dashboard. ## Roles | Role | Hostname | Skills | Purpose | |------|----------|--------|---------| | collector | `<prefix>-collector` | pilot-stream-data, pilot-archive, pilot-compress | Aggregates logs from servers, containers, apps; normalizes formats | | parser | `<prefix>-parser` | pilot-event-filter, pilot-task-router, pilot-dataset | Extracts structured fields, parses stack traces, identifies patterns | | alerter | `<prefix>-alerter` | pilot-alert, pilot-metrics, pilot-cron | Detects log spikes, error rate anomalies, fires alerts | | dashboard | `<prefix>-dashboard` | pilot-webhook-bridge, pilot-slack-bridge, pilot-announce | Search, visualization, drill-down, and report generation | ## Setup Procedure **Step 1:** Ask the user which role this agent should play and what prefix to use. **Step 2:** Install the skills for the chosen role: ```bash # For collector: clawhub install pilot-stream-data pilot-archive pilot-compress # For parser: clawhub install pilot-event-filter pilot-task-router pilot-dataset # For alerter: clawhub install pilot-alert pilot-metrics pilot-cron # For dashboard: clawhub install pilot-webhook-bridge pilot-slack-bridge pilot-announce ``` **Step 3:** Set the hostname: ```bash pilotctl --json set-hostname <prefix>-<role> ``` **Step 4:** Write the setup manifest: ```bash mkdir -p ~/.pilot/setups cat > ~/.pilot/setups/log-analytics.json << 'MANIFEST' <INSERT ROLE MANIFEST FROM BELOW> MANIFEST ``` **Step 5:** Tell the user to initiate handshakes with direct communication peers. ## Manifest Templates Per Role ### collector ```json { "setup": "log-analytics", "setup_name": "Log Analytics", "role": "collector", "role_name": "Log Collector", "hostname": "<prefix>-collector", "description": "Aggregates logs from servers, containers, and applications.
