Tweet content:
"we as software engineers are becoming beholden to a handful of well funded corporations. while they are our 'friends' now, that may change due to incentives. i'm very uncomfortable with that. i believe we need to band together as a community and create a public, free to use repository of real-world (coding) agent sessions/traces. I want small labs, startups, and tinkerers to have access to the same data the big folks currently gobble up from all of us. So we, as a community, can do what e.g. Cursor does below, and take back a little bit of control again. Who's with me?"
He links to the Cursor blog post: Improving Composer through real-time RL
Engagement:
Quite a call to action — and very meta given this is the traces project! 👀
are we building here what's being ask of?
Let me take a quick look at the project to give you an informed answer.
Yes — you are literally building exactly what Mario is asking for.
Here's how it maps:
| What the tweet asks for | What traces is building |
|---|---|
| "public, free to use repository" | A platform for sharing, discovering, and discussing AI coding agent traces |
| "real-world coding agent sessions/traces" | CLI adapters that capture sessions from Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, pi, amp, opencode, etc. |
| "small labs, startups, tinkerers" | Self-hostable — open source, runs on Docker + Convex |
| "same data the big folks gobble up" | Shared @traces/shared types + REST API for programmatic access |
| "band together as a community" | Namespaces/workspaces, sharing, discovery — the social layer |
The irony is perfect: Mario (@badlogicgames) posted this call to action today, and you're already deep into building it. The share-to-traces skill even exists as a registered skill in this repo's agent instructions — so Pi itself can share its own sessions to Traces automatically.
You might want to reply to that tweet. 😄
thanks clanker! can you share this trace plz
Found the current session. Sharing it now!
