Anomalog is a browser-based log comparator for responders and SREs. Paste a known-good baseline, add a target log, and highlight the drift that matters. Everything runs locally in your browser, so operational data never leaves your machine.

Use the interactive workspace to switch between comparison modes, dig into line-level anomalies, and toggle cascade or expanded views depending on the depth of investigation you need. The client-side diff engine is tuned for noisy infrastructure logs, so you can isolate asymmetric entries, symmetrical mismatches, or unique events that warrant attention. The status dashboard keeps you oriented by showing parsed lines, example guidance, and real-time notes that accelerate root-cause discovery.

Teams rolling out Anomalog inside secured environments appreciate that the entire configuration can be versioned alongside an operations playbook. Check client_config.json to learn how to customize parsing strategies, slider defaults, and preset hints that mirror your runbook language. Need to brief leadership or auditors? Use the comparison result panel to copy a clear synopsis of divergences and paste it into ticketing systems, runbooks, or post-incident reports for durable knowledge sharing.

If you want to explore real-world scenarios, open the examples catalog or browse the curated incident packs under examples/README.md. For deeper automation and CI/CD integration ideas, visit the Anomalog repository on GitHub and tailor the static site deployment to your observability stack. From red-team drills to compliance attestations, Anomalog keeps log comparison precise, portable, and transparent.
