Show HN: Groundtrack – Continual learning for coding agents

https://groundtrack.dev/
1•reybahl•55m ago
Hi HN! I built Groundtrack to help coding agents continuously learn and improve from their work across a company.

With coding agents handling most of code implementation, a lot of things like review corrections, failed approaches, and discovered constraints stay trapped in individual agent sessions, so future agents can repeat the same failures. Sometimes a broken or agent-unfriendly tool or workflow can cause those issues too; if multiple agents independently find workarounds, those failures don’t get connected and aren’t used to improve the system around the agents.

Groundtrack turns those learnings into scoped and shared engineering experiences that can help future agents across teams working with Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenCode. It retrieves relevant lessons during later work, records whether they helped, and updates or supersedes knowledge as it learns over time.

It also identifies recurring friction that shouldn’t just become another stored experience. If agents repeatedly struggle with the same tool or workflow, Groundtrack creates an evidence-backed draft initiative so the team can fix the underlying environment and prevent a certain class of mistake systemically.

For example, on the landing page, I follow a database migration incident through the entire loop. Groundtrack turned the original workaround into a scoped experience, surfaced it when a later agent encountered similar migration drift, and recorded that it was successfully applied. After connecting evidence from seven sessions, it also proposed making the safe migration workflow a permanent part of the engineering environment and prevent the issue altogether.

There have been many challenges I’ve already run into to make this helpful (and still many unsolved things!), one of which has been generalizing and determining the applicability of one lesson to another session. I wrote about some of my retrieval experiments here: https://groundtrack.dev/blog/retrieving-knowledge-that-appli...

It’s an early product and I’d really love any and all feedback I can get. If you or your team regularly use coding agents, please try it on an active project and see if it helps your agents learn and improve over time. It’s free for solo use.
