How SPL Judge Works

SPL Judge analyzes your SPL queries entirely within your browser:

  • Reads the SPL query from the Splunk search bar when you run a search

  • Stores the query and score in local storage for trend tracking
  • Displays results in a badge and tooltip overlay on the page

All analysis happens client-side. No data ever leaves your browser.
