How I Built a Free, Private Multi-Server Log Analyzer Using Local LLMs
Or more accurately, how I used Google AI mode to do it. Then after iterating a few times, changing the approach, and debugging it, I had it generate this generic version, and this blog post, including everything after this intro block.

Yes, yes I can. This post describes how to make that happen. -
