Node Logs
Tool
Use the node_script tool to run this skill:
node_script: node="<node>", skill="node-logs", script="get-node-logs.sh", args="<args>"
Parameters
Required (one of):
| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| --unit UNIT | Systemd unit name (e.g. containerd, kubelet). Use this or --file. |
| --file PATH | Log file path on the node (e.g. /var/log/messages). Use this or --unit. |
Optional:
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------------|
| --since DURATION | 1h ago | Time range for journalctl (only with --unit), e.g. 30m ago, 2h ago, today |
| --grep PATTERN | — | Case-insensitive grep filter pattern |
| --tail N | 200 | Maximum number of output lines |
Examples
Check containerd logs on a node:
node_script: node="node-1", skill="node-logs", script="get-node-logs.sh", args="--unit containerd --tail 50"
Search containerd logs for a specific image:
node_script: node="node-1", skill="node-logs", script="get-node-logs.sh", args='--unit containerd --grep "myregistry.com/myapp" --since "2h ago"'
Check kubelet logs for errors:
node_script: node="node-1", skill="node-logs", script="get-node-logs.sh", args='--unit kubelet --grep "error" --since "30m ago"'
Read a log file on the node:
node_script: node="node-1", skill="node-logs", script="get-node-logs.sh", args='--file /var/log/messages --grep "containerd" --tail 100'
Use Cases
Diagnose container runtime issues
Check containerd or cri-o logs when pods fail to start, images fail to pull, or containers crash unexpectedly.
Investigate kubelet problems
Check kubelet logs for node-level issues like pod evictions, volume mount failures, or resource pressure.
Check system logs
Read /var/log/messages, /var/log/syslog, or other log files for kernel or system-level issues affecting the node.
