The value of logging systems to developers
Any LLM in Claude Code provides sophisticated logging capabilities that are uniquely valuable to AI developers and cueing engineers. By setting environment variables such as FILE_LOG_LEVEL and LOG_REQUEST_BODY, users can log Claude Code's request content and model responses in detail.
The working mechanism of the logging system consists of 1) request logging - capturing raw hints and parameters, 2) response tracking - saving model outputs, and 3) multi-level control - regulating the level of detail through levels such as DEBUG/INFO. These logs are saved in the claude-proxy.log file, providing first-hand data for hint optimization and model evaluation.
In practice, this feature is particularly helpful for 1) debugging optimization - to find out the room for improvement of the hint templates; 2) performance comparison - to analyze the performance of different models; and 3) teaching and research - to understand the process of model interaction. The project recommends turning off sensitive logging in production environments to ensure data security.
