Agent skill
b2c-logs
Retrieve or monitor logs from B2C Commerce instances with the b2c cli. Always reference when using the CLI to fetch logs, search log entries, filter by level/time, or tail logs in real-time. Also use when a user reports errors, broken functionality, or issues with controllers, script APIs, custom API backends, jobs, or other SFCC server-side components.

B2C Logs Skill
Use the b2c CLI to retrieve and monitor log files on Salesforce B2C Commerce instances. The logs get command is designed for agent-friendly, non-interactive log retrieval with structured JSON output.
Tip: If
b2cis not installed globally, usenpx @salesforce/b2c-cliinstead (e.g.,npx @salesforce/b2c-cli logs get).
Agent-Friendly Log Retrieval
The logs get command is optimized for coding agents:
- Exits immediately after retrieving logs (non-interactive)
- Supports
--jsonfor structured output - Filters by time, level, and text search
- Auto-normalizes file paths for IDE click-to-open
Examples
Get Recent Logs
# Get last 20 entries from error and customerror logs (default)
b2c logs get
# Get last 50 entries
b2c logs get --count 50
# JSON output for programmatic parsing
b2c logs get --json
Filter by Time
# Entries from the last 5 minutes
b2c logs get --since 5m
# Entries from the last 1 hour
b2c logs get --since 1h
# Entries from the last 2 days
b2c logs get --since 2d
# Entries after a specific time (ISO 8601)
b2c logs get --since "2026-01-25T10:00:00"
Filter by Log Level
# Only ERROR level entries
b2c logs get --level ERROR
# ERROR and FATAL entries
b2c logs get --level ERROR --level FATAL
Search Text
# Search for "OrderMgr" in messages
b2c logs get --search OrderMgr
# Search for payment errors
b2c logs get --search "PaymentProcessor"
Combined Filters
# Recent errors containing "PaymentProcessor"
b2c logs get --since 1h --level ERROR --search "PaymentProcessor" --json
# Last hour of errors and fatals from specific log types
b2c logs get --filter error --filter warn --since 1h --level ERROR --level FATAL
List Available Log Files
# List all log files
b2c logs list
# List specific log types
b2c logs list --filter error --filter customerror
# JSON output
b2c logs list --json
Real-Time Tailing (Human Use)
For interactive log monitoring (not for agents):
# Tail error and customerror logs
b2c logs tail
# Tail specific log types
b2c logs tail --filter debug --filter error
# Tail only ERROR and FATAL level entries
b2c logs tail --level ERROR --level FATAL
# Tail with text search
b2c logs tail --search "PaymentProcessor"
# Combined filtering
b2c logs tail --filter customerror --level ERROR --search "OrderMgr"
# Stop with Ctrl+C
Downloading Full Log Files
To download the complete log file, use the file field from the JSON output with b2c-cli:b2c-webdav:
b2c webdav get error-odspod-0-appserver-20260126.log --root=logs -o -
JSON Output Structure
When using --json, logs get returns:
{
"count": 1,
"entries": [
{
"file": "error-odspod-0-appserver-20260126.log",
"timestamp": "2026-01-26 04:38:03.022 GMT",
"level": "ERROR",
"message": "PipelineCallServlet|156679877|Sites-Site|...",
"raw": "[2026-01-26 04:38:03.022 GMT] ERROR PipelineCallServlet|..."
}
]
