Every developer I know now runs an AI coding agent in something like auto-accept mode. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor: you give it a task, it runs commands, edits files, installs packages, and you review... the diff, maybe. The commands? The installs? The thing it did in that folder outside the repo? Nobody looks. The activity scrolls off the terminal and is gone.
That asymmetry bothered me. We built an entire industry around audit trails for humans (git blame, CI logs, access logs), then handed the keyboard to agents and kept none for them.
So I built Tracon: a local flight recorder for AI coding agents. The name is the FAA's term for Terminal Radar Approach Control, the radar room that tracks every aircraft in an airspace. This one tracks every agent on your machine.
What it does
Tracon is a Mac and Windows desktop app (Tauri 2, Rust core, React UI, SQLite store) that sits in the tray and records what your agents do:
