A simple log collection agent that follows the logs for user defined services and agregates them in a single stream. This allows the supervisor to collect and send the logs to the API and provides users and support agents with an extra source of data to diagnose potential device issues. By default only log entries with priority error or higher are collected.

• Lightweight. Uses journalctl to monitor and filter logs.
• Configurable. Only collect relevant logs to avoid unnecessary bandwidth usage.
• Small image size
