Aura Logs: Export AI Context to Markdown

Capture network requests, console errors & state mutations into an AI-ready Markdown timeline. Debug smarter, faster.

Aura Logs: Export AI Context to Markdown Stop wasting time manually copying disjointed DevTools tabs. You choose which tabs to monitor, start the session when you're ready, and Aura Logs operates as a background flight recorder, capturing your network requests, console errors, and state mutations into a unified chronological timeline. With one click, export a perfectly formatted bug report to the AI assistant or IDE of your choice. While frontier models benefit immensely, this high-fidelity context is a massive advantage for non-frontier and local AI models, giving them the rich, structured information they need to punch above their weight, make expert-level coding decisions, and provide hallucination-free fixes. Permanently bridge the gap between live browser state and your IDE for faster frontend debugging and prompt engineering. ⚡️ CORE CAPABILITIES • Capture Frontend State Mutations: Monitors user-defined window.* variables and logs exact before-and-after values whenever state changes. Features two modes: Track Changes (polls every second) or Snapshot (fixed interval). • Export Network JSON & Payloads: Hooks into CDP network events to capture the full request/response lifecycle -- method, URL, headers, POST body, response status, and response body up to 5 MB -- and converts outbound payloads into ready-to-execute cURL commands. • Extract Console Logs & Uncaught Exceptions: Uses the Chrome Debugger Protocol to precisely capture console.log, console.warn, console.error, and uncaught exceptions. Each type is independently toggleable. • Record Reproducible Event Timelines: Passively captures user clicks, form submissions, and SPA navigations into an exact chronological event log, via a dedicated channel that never touches the page's own console. • Snapshot localStorage & Cookies (Pro): Periodically captures the full contents of localStorage and all cookies on monitored tabs. Configurable interval: fixed (1, 5, 10, or 30 min) or on-change only. • Monitor Multi-Tab Flows: Merges telemetry from up to 10 active browser tabs and background service workers into a single unified log file. • Optimize AI Context Windows: Uses configurable URL Deny Filters to strip out static assets, fonts, and framework noise (like Webpack HMR) before writing to disk. • Secure API Context & Redact PII (Pro): Smart Redaction middleware masks Authorization headers, Bearer tokens, JWTs, emails, credit cards, UUIDs, and custom regex patterns before any data is saved, applied to network, console, and storage streams alike. • Generate AI-Ready Markdown: Writes combined DevTools streams directly to your local file system as perfectly formatted .md files (or JSON), with automatic file rotation and continuous flushing to your workspace folder. 🎯 COMMON USE CASES • AI Prompt Engineering: Instantly generate rich context windows for any AI assistant, empowering cheaper or local models with the depth of information needed to make accurate code decisions. • SPA State Tracking: Monitor fleeting global variables and pinpoint silent mutations in React, Vue, and Next.js where traditional breakpoints interrupt the UI flow. • Complex API Troubleshooting: Export raw inbound response bodies and outbound network payloads as cURL commands when debugging tricky REST or GraphQL endpoints. • Diagnosing Race Conditions: Capture the exact chronological order of SPA router navigations, DOM clicks, and delayed API responses. • Secure QA Bug Reporting: Export reproducible, step-by-step error logs for issue trackers while proactively stripping out sensitive data. 🛡️ PRIVACY & PERMISSIONS: LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN Your code, API responses, and state data never touch our servers. Aura Logs operates under a strict local-first philosophy. To provide high-fidelity context, the extension requires the following permissions: • Debugger (chrome.debugger): Taps directly into the Chrome Debugger Protocol (CDP) for raw network payloads and deep runtime errors without injecting heavy DOM scripts. Chrome will display a "DevTools is debugging this browser" banner during active sessions, as this is a native browser requirement. • File System Access: Writes Markdown and JSON files directly to a designated folder on your local machine for instant IDE availability. Permission is granted per folder and expires when Chrome restarts. • Storage (chrome.storage): Securely saves your capture filters, UI preferences, and custom blocklists locally. • Cookies (chrome.cookies): Used exclusively to capture a local snapshot of cookie state as part of the localStorage & Cookie Snapshot feature. Cookie data is written only to your local log files and never transmitted. 🚀 PRICING All premium features are available on the Pro tier. Not sure if it's right for your workflow?
