…SK-037-02) Replace all raw console.log/warn/error calls across 17 inspector/src files with scoped logger instances using createLogger(). Each module gets a descriptive source name for log filtering. - 17 files migrated to structured logger - Stale eslint-disable no-console comments removed - Tests updated to match new console.info output format - bin/mcp-inspector.ts and widget-server-templates.ts untouched - proxy-resources.ts skipped (console call is in client-side template)
…tions Replace `const self = this` pattern with arrow function `this` capture in mock class constructors. Arrow functions in setTimeout already capture the enclosing constructor's `this`, making the alias unnecessary. Removes 2 eslint-disable comments.

🧹 Nitpick comments (6)
packages/inspector/src/widget-server.ts (1)
432-436: Note: Double gating may cause unexpected behavior.The
log()method has two gating mechanisms:
- Instance-level
this.options.debugflag- Global
MCP_APPS_LOG_LEVELenvironment variable (insidelogger.info())This means logs only appear when both conditions are met. This is likely intentional (instance debug flag + global level), but worth documenting if it causes confusion during debugging.
packages/inspector/src/tools/call-tool.ts (1)
162-164: Minor: Inconsistent naming between logger source and message prefix.The logger source is
"call-tool"(hyphen) while message prefixes use[call_tool](underscore). This results in log output like:[INFO] [call-tool] [call_tool] Creating session for...Consider aligning the naming convention for consistency, though this is a minor cosmetic issue.
🔧 Optional: Remove redundant prefix from messages
Since the logger already prefixes with
[call-tool], the[call_tool]in messages is redundant:- logger.warn( - `[call_tool] Failed to extract widgetSessionId from page URL: ${pageUrl}` - ); + logger.warn(`Failed to extract widgetSessionId from page URL: ${pageUrl}`);- logger.info( - `[call_tool] Creating session for ${input.name}, widgetSessionId: ${widgetSessionId}, hostUrl: ${pageUrl}` - ); + logger.info( + `Creating session for ${input.name}, widgetSessionId: ${widgetSessionId}, hostUrl: ${pageUrl}` + );- logger.info(`[call_tool] Session created: ${sessionId}`); + logger.info(`Session created: ${sessionId}`);- logger.warn(`[call_tool] Failed to render widget:`, error); + logger.warn(`Failed to render widget:`, error);Also applies to: 174-176, 190-190, 196-196
packages/codegen/src/watcher.ts (1)
20-46: The suggestion to usepackages/codegen/src/utils/logger.tsis incorrect; consider extracting enhanced logger utilities to a shared location instead.The
utils/logger.tsexports a simplified logger with only a static prefix, lacking the enhanced features inwatcher.ts(timestamps,MCP_APPS_LOG_LEVELenvironment variable support, and per-source filtering). Thewatcher.tslogger is intentionally local and more sophisticated.However, a real duplication concern exists across packages: similar IIFE-based logger patterns with identical timestamp and level-gating logic appear in
packages/ui-react/src/hooks.tsandpackages/inspector/src/debug/logger.ts. Rather than merging intoutils/logger.ts, consider extracting the enhanced logger pattern into a shared utility package (per the project pattern of moving shared utilities down or into dedicated packages).packages/inspector/src/session/session-store.ts (1)
83-84: Consider removing redundant prefix from log messages.The logger already prefixes output with
[session-store], so the[SessionStore]prefix in the message creates duplication like:
[timestamp] [INFO] [session-store] [SessionStore] Created session ...This applies to all logger calls in this file (lines 83, 264, 291, 320, 337).
Example fix
if (this.debug) { - logger.info(`[SessionStore] Created session ${options.sessionId}`); + logger.info(`Created session ${options.sessionId}`); }packages/inspector/src/connection.ts (1)
229-231: Same redundant prefix pattern.Similar to session-store.ts, the
[inspector]prefix is redundant since the logger source is"connection". Consider removing manual prefixes for cleaner output.This is a low-priority consistency improvement that applies to all ~30 logger calls in this file.

Critical: logger is undefined in browser context - runtime error.
The getPlaywrightInitScript() method returns a JavaScript string that executes in Playwright's browser context. The logger.info() calls on these lines are inside this string template, but logger only exists in the Node.js context where this file runs—not in the browser.
This will cause ReferenceError: logger is not defined when the init script executes in the browser.
🐛 Proposed fix: Use console.log for browser context
if (message && message.jsonrpc === '2.0' && message.method === 'ui/initialize') {
- logger.info('[MCP Host Emulator] Received ui/initialize, responding...');
+ console.log('[MCP Host Emulator] Received ui/initialize, responding...');
// Respond with initialization success window.dispatchEvent(new MessageEvent('message', {
data: response,
origin: '*',
source: window,
}));
- logger.info('[MCP Host Emulator] Sent ui/initialize response');
+ console.log('[MCP Host Emulator] Sent ui/initialize response'); // Then send the tool result after a longer delay to ensure widget is ready
setTimeout(function() {
- logger.info('[MCP Host Emulator] Sending ui/notifications/tool-result...');
+ console.log('[MCP Host Emulator] Sending ui/notifications/tool-result...');
var resultMessage = { // Update emulator state
emu.displayMode = requestedMode;
emu.viewport = { width: sizing.width, height: sizing.height };
- logger.info('[MCP Host Emulator] Display mode changed to:', requestedMode, 'sizing:', sizing);
+ console.log('[MCP Host Emulator] Display mode changed to:', requestedMode, 'sizing:', sizing);Alternatively, keep console.log for browser-context code in the init script while using logger for Node.js-context code (like in injectIntoJSDOM and handlePostMessage).

logger is not defined in browser context - this will throw ReferenceError.
The getPlaywrightInitScript() method returns a string that is executed in the browser via Playwright's addInitScript. The logger variable exists only in Node.js context and is not available when this code runs in the browser.
This will cause a runtime error: ReferenceError: logger is not defined.

Add ESLint disable for no-undef to silence the process global error.
The static analysis tool flags process as undefined. While the typeof process !== "undefined" guard makes this safe at runtime, ESLint doesn't understand this pattern. The existing disable comment only covers @typescript-eslint/no-unnecessary-condition.
