Short answer

How can I use AI to debug my Clever Cloud apps?

Your AI accesses live application logs and instance status to pinpoint why a deployment failed or why an app is crashing. You get a direct breakdown of error patterns and instance health. This allows you to move from error detection to a fix in one conversation.

Debugging outcomes.

Where your debugging data lands.

The AI processes raw cloud data into actionable insights.

LOGS

Error pattern detection

The AI scans recent logs to find stack traces or specific error codes. You get a summary of what actually broke.

STATUS

Instance health checks

The AI checks if your instances are running or stuck in a crash loop. You'll see if the infrastructure is actually up.

DEPLOY

Deployment failure analysis

The AI compares application state against recent logs to find why a new build failed. You get the root cause of the deployment issue.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The AI identifies the specific line of code or config causing the crash. You decide how to apply the fix in your codebase.

The workflow

What your AI does when a deployment fails.

The AI acts as a bridge between your terminal and your chat window.

  1. Identify the app

    The AI looks up your specific application details to ensure it's looking at the right environment.

    get_application
  2. Check instance health

    The AI pulls a list of all running instances to see if any are offline or restarting constantly.

    list_instances
  3. Fetch error logs

    The AI grabs the most recent log entries to find the exact moment the application threw an exception.

    get_application_logs
  4. Summarize the crash

    The AI correlates the instance status with the log errors to explain why the app isn't responding.

    get_application_logslist_instances

  • Check the status of my 'web-api-prod' application and tell me if any instances are down.

  • Pull the last 50 lines of logs for 'frontend-app' and explain the error.

  • Why did my 'worker-service' deployment fail? Check the logs and instance status.

  • List all instances for 'payment-gateway' and let me know if they are healthy.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI restart my instances?

    No. The AI can only read logs and check the status of your instances. You must trigger restarts or deployments yourself.

  • 02

    Can the AI change my application configuration?

    No. This MCP is read-only for logs and status. It cannot modify environment variables or app settings.

  • 03

    How recent are the logs the AI sees?

    The AI pulls the real-time logs available through the Clever Cloud API at the moment you ask.

  • 04

    Does the AI see all my applications?

    The AI can see any application that your connected Clever Cloud account has permission to access.

  • 05

    Can the AI fix the code for me?

    No. The AI identifies the error and suggests a fix, but you have to apply that change to your code manually.
