Show HN: LogWhisperer – Local AI-powered system log summarizer (no API keys)

I've been working on an open-source tool called LogWhisperer. It's a CLI-based log summarizer that uses a local LLM (via Ollama) to interpret and summarize Linux system logs like journalctl or /var/log/syslog — with zero internet or OpenAI API dependency.

It's useful for:

Quickly triaging large volumes of logs

Identifying systemd failures or boot issues

Getting human-readable summaries from raw log lines

Under the hood, it uses mistral or phi via Ollama, and supports:

File or journalctl sources

CLI flags for easy customization (--entries, --model, etc.)

Markdown output reports

Spinner/progress UX to avoid CLI "hang" confusion

* Works entirely offline * Lightweight, installable with a one-liner * No cloud calls or token dependencies
