Description
Traces is a new way to share and discover agent traces. You can setup a personal or team account, and share publicly or privately (in a team).We use Traces internally to capture and share our agent conversations. Every PR has a Traces link attached to it. We even have skills that can automate that for you (run 'traces setup' after install).You might ask:1) Why would I share traces? Well, we have found ourselves wanting to learn from each other on how to prompt different models and agents. We built Traces as a tool for teams to learn that together, and for us to learn that as an open community.2) What about Privacy? You can share publicly, privately, or via direct link. We strip data at source to make sure anything that looks sensitive never leaves your machines. Orgs have more privacy settings as well. But honestly, me saying this is one thing, earning your continued trust is the goal of every release.If you're interested, just get started at traces.com. You can hop into our Discord, find us on X at x.com/tarunsachdeva / x.com/tracesdotcom.Thank you!

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
