+## 🖥️ Admin UI Log Viewer
+
+MCP Gateway includes a built-in log viewer in the Admin UI that provides real-time monitoring, filtering, and export capabilities without requiring direct file access.
+
+### Enabling the Log Viewer
+
+The log viewer is automatically available when the Admin UI is enabled:
+
+```bash
+# Enable Admin UI (includes log viewer)
+MCPGATEWAY_UI_ENABLED=true
+
+# Configure in-memory log buffer size (default: 1MB)
+LOG_BUFFER_SIZE_MB=2 # Increase for more log history
+```
+
+### Features
+
+#### Real-Time Monitoring
+- **Live streaming** via Server-Sent Events (SSE)
+- **Automatic updates** as new logs are generated
+- **Visual indicators** with pulse animation for new entries
+- **Color-coded severity levels**:
+ - Debug: Gray
+ - Info: Blue
+ - Warning: Yellow
+ - Error: Red
+ - Critical: Purple
+
+#### Filtering & Search
+- **Filter by log level**: Debug, Info, Warning, Error, Critical
+- **Filter by entity type**: Tool, Resource, Server, Gateway
+- **Full-text search**: Search within log messages
+- **Time range filtering**: Filter by date/time range
+- **Request ID tracing**: Track logs for specific requests
+
+#### Export Capabilities
+- **Export to JSON**: Download filtered logs as JSON file
+- **Export to CSV**: Download filtered logs as CSV file
+- **Download log files**: Direct access to rotated log files (if file logging enabled)
+
+### Accessing the Log Viewer
+
+1. Navigate to the Admin UI: `http://localhost:4444/admin`
+2. Click the **"Logs"** tab in the navigation
+3. Use the filter controls to refine your view:
+ - Select entity type from dropdown
+ - Choose minimum log level
+ - Enter search terms
+ - Set pagination options
+
+### API Endpoints
+
+The log viewer also exposes REST API endpoints for programmatic access:
+
+```bash
+# Get filtered logs
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
+ "http://localhost:4444/admin/logs?level=error&limit=50"
+
+# Stream logs in real-time (SSE)
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
+ "http://localhost:4444/admin/logs/stream"
+
+# Export logs as JSON
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
+ "http://localhost:4444/admin/logs/export?format=json" \
+ -o logs.json
+
+# List available log files
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
+ "http://localhost:4444/admin/logs/file"
+```
+
+### Buffer Management
+
+The log viewer uses an in-memory circular buffer with configurable size:
+
+- **Default size**: 1MB (approximately 2000-5000 log entries)
+- **Size-based eviction**: Oldest logs automatically removed when buffer is full
+- **No persistence**: Buffer is cleared on server restart
+- **Performance**: Minimal memory overhead with O(1) operations
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+| Variable | Description | Default | Example |
+| -------------------- | ------------------------------------ | ------- | ------- |
+| `LOG_BUFFER_SIZE_MB` | In-memory buffer size for UI viewer | `1` | `2`, `5`, `10` |
+
+### Best Practices
+
+1. **Adjust buffer size** based on your monitoring needs:
+ - Development: 1-2MB is usually sufficient
+ - Production: Consider 5-10MB for longer history
+
+2. **Use filters** to focus on relevant logs:
+ - Filter by error level during troubleshooting
+ - Filter by entity when debugging specific components
+
+3. **Export regularly** if you need to preserve logs:
+ - The buffer is in-memory only and clears on restart
+ - Export important logs to JSON/CSV for archival
+
+4. **Combine with file logging** for persistence:
+ - UI viewer for real-time monitoring
+ - File logs for long-term storage and analysis
