[Enhancement] Add Timeline and Step Analysis to Build Log Retrieval Tool (get_build_log) #670
Description
Summary
Enhance the get_build_log tool in the Azure DevOps MCP server to allow for enhanced build analysis by integrating step level data as mentioned below
Each log entry is associated with this info
- Step Information: Name, type (Task/Job/Stage), execution state, and result
- Timing Data: Start time, finish time, and duration tracking
- Hierarchy: Parent-child relationships between steps
- Log Correlation: Direct mapping between steps and their log outputs
Benefits
🚀 Improved Build Failure Analysis: Quickly identify which specific steps failed
⏱️ Performance Insights: Understand step execution timing and bottlenecks
🔗 Better Context: Log entries now have associated step metadata
📊 At-a-Glance Status: Summary statistics provide immediate build health overview
Allows for quick comparisions between multiple jobs on timing and performance to see if there are any patterns on slowdown.
