Log Analysis with Claude Code: Sandbox Policy
A production playbook for log analysis in cross-industry operations using Claude Code: sandbox policy, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Platform and support teams
The problem
Platform and support teams need log analysis to run repeatedly against application logs, traces, metrics exports, and incident notes. In cross-industry operations, the pain is not one good answer; it is repeatability, auditability, exception handling, and evidence that survives handoff.
Implementation path
Run log analysis in an ephemeral sandbox, keep provider credentials in the broker, expose narrow tools, and store logs outside the workspace for review.
Tradeoffs and failure modes
A narrower runtime blocks ambient machine behavior, but it gives security reviewers a concrete boundary. For log analysis, the practical test is whether a second run can be debugged, retried, and consumed by a product without reading the raw agent transcript.
Runtime boundary
filesystem: /skill and /skill/.argo/inputs only
network: deny by default
artifacts: /skill/output/artifacts
logs: retained outside sandbox
