### What we like

Processes logs as a stream from stdin, files, network, OTel. Auto detects format, parses, colorizes. Shows real time graphs with word frequency, severity, time series, attributes. Auto scroll with pausing. Filters by regex, attributes, severity. Optional AI support (local or cloud models) with pattern detection, root cause suggestions, etc.

### Tradeoffs
