Status Highlighter

Format arrays of log entries into newline-separated output that colorizes status labels with the standard foreground palette and uses a bright alias for supporting metadata. Each line follows the pattern (<timestamp>) STATUS: message when a timestamp exists, otherwise STATUS: message, with no trailing newline.

Capabilities

Standard color labels

• A single entry with status error renders as ERROR: message with the status label colored using the standard red foreground and the message unstyled. @test
• A single entry with status info renders as INFO: message with the status label colored using the standard cyan foreground and the message unstyled. @test

Bright alias metadata

• When an entry includes a timestamp, the timestamp is prefixed in parentheses ahead of the status label and styled using the bright gray alias foreground, while the status color and message remain intact. @test

Mixed entry list

• Multiple entries are formatted in order as separate lines, each applying the standard foreground color mapping {error→red, warn→yellow, info→cyan} to the status label, and leaving unknown statuses unstyled. @test
