XTrace

Learn once. Build on it together.

Build on what your team already knows.

Explain the same thing once, from anywhere.

Turn a message from Slack or your preferred coding agent into a shared rule, so your team doesn’t have to repeat the same guidance.

New rule in XTrace

Use the shared job runner

For scheduled jobs, reuse the runner the team already maintains.

Created from Priya’s Slack message

Build on what already works.

Bring the same rule to your team's coding agents, so each agent reuses the team’s work instead of building another version.

Put rules where agents take action.

A rule in a file still depends on the agent following it. XTrace checks matching actions at the harness level, before they proceed.

Instructions in context

A file or review prompt tells the agent what to do.

instructions.md“Run required checks before finishing.”
The agent decides how to apply it

The instruction can be missed.

A reviewer catches the omission

Another correction. Another review cycle.

Rules in the execution path

XTrace checks matching actions through the agent’s harness.

Agent attempts to finishRequired checks have not passed.
XTrace runs the configured check

The check runs before completion proceeds.

Completion blocked

The agent fixes the issue and reruns the checks.

Your team chooses the control.

Use guidance for working practices and blocking checks for requirements. Enforcement applies to configured triggers in supported agent integrations.

Uncover the mistakes your team keeps repeating.
