The goal of this article is to extend the work of Voevodsky and Morel on the homotopy t-structure on the category of motivic complexes to the context of motives for logarithmic schemes. To do so, we prove an analogue of Morel’s connectivity theorem and show a purity statement for $({\mathbf {P}}^1, \infty )$ -local complexes of sheaves with log transfers. The homotopy t-structure on ${\operatorname {\mathbf {logDM}^{eff}}}(k)$ is proved to be compatible with Voevodsky’s t-structure; that is, we show that the comparison functor $R^{{\overline {\square }}}\omega ^*\colon {\operatorname {\mathbf {DM}^{eff}}}(k)\to {\operatorname {\mathbf {logDM}^{eff}}}(k)$ is t-exact. The heart of the homotopy t-structure on ${\operatorname {\mathbf {logDM}^{eff}}}(k)$ is the Grothendieck abelian category of strictly cube-invariant sheaves with log transfers: we use it to build a new version of the category of reciprocity sheaves in the style of Kahn-Saito-Yamazaki and Rülling.
