Watch it happen, then keep it
Tail an HTTP(S) endpoint into a bounded buffer and get the same filters, search and level toggles you'd have on a static file. When something interesting lands, save the buffer and carry on analysing it after the stream ends.

Five things it does while connected.
- 01
Connect
Point it at an HTTP(S) endpoint whose body is a stream of text. Custom request headers are set as JSON, so an Authorization bearer token or an internal API key goes in before you connect.
- 02
Parse as it lands
Bytes are read chunk by chunk and split into lines, then run through the same detection as a static file. Filters, search and level toggles behave identically — there is no separate live-only mode to learn.
- 03
Pause honestly
Pausing records a real interval, and the chart draws that as a break rather than closing the line over it. You can always see that you looked away, and for how long.
- 04
Alert once, not per line
Incoming batches are checked against your severity triggers and fire a single summarising email, subject to a cooldown — sent through the main process, because the email API sends no CORS headers.
- 05
Keep what you saw
“Save to editor” turns the current buffer into a snapshot file you can keep scrolling, filtering and searching after the stream ends.
Four things it is not.
This is the feature people most often assume is something else. Better to find out here than after paying — and if any of these four is what you actually need, Logier is the wrong tool and we’d rather say so.
Not a file tailer
It doesn't watch a path on disk. The source has to answer over HTTP or HTTPS with a streaming text body.
Not an SSH agent
There's no shell, no key handling and no jump host. If the only way to the log is SSH, put something in front of it that speaks HTTP.
Not a 24/7 monitor
It's scoped to an open window on your machine. Close it and the stream ends. For unattended production monitoring you want a real observability stack.
Not unbounded
The buffer holds 5,000 lines by default. Past that, the oldest drop off as new ones arrive, so a long session doesn't grow memory forever.

Where this fits
For the logs you can't SSH into.
An endpoint, a bearer token, and the same filters you'd use on a file. Save the buffer when something interesting shows up.
