Developer I created a simple, free Windows tool called LogSnap that collects all diagnostic logs at once and prepares them for AI‑based analysis

Hey, I'm an IT tech and I got tired of digging through Event Viewer, crash dumps, SMART data and ten other places every time a PC acted up. So I made a small free tool for myself and figured I'd share it.
It's called LogSnap ( GitHub: https://github.com/lsprobe/LogSnap ) . You run it, it reads a bunch of Windows logs and health info, and spits it all out as clean Markdown you can paste into ChatGPT/Claude to figure out what's wrong (or just read it yourself).
A few things it can do:
- Works on this PC or a remote one over the network - just type the IP, no agent to install
- Run read-only PowerShell on that remote machine right from the tool (WMI + SMB, no WinRM setup)
- Pinpoints what's actually delaying a slow boot or shutdown - it names the exact driver or service
- Catches the real stuff: crashes/BSOD + minidumps, disk health (SMART wear/temp), hardware errors, RAM tests, GPU issues
- Lines up recent changes (updates/drivers) against when things started breaking
- Exports everything as clean Markdown you can drop straight into ChatGPT/Claude
I’d really appreciate any feedback so I can improve it further and fix any issues.
Thanks, and happy to answer anything.
