TrackCTL

Config-as-code PostHog implementation and research preserved after the standalone product thesis was killed: computer-use automation absorbed most click-ops, no TrackCTL-specific demand was validated, and the remaining cross-cutting secrets problem belongs in the EnvBank experiment.

Current status

Killed 2026-08-24 after general computer-use automation erased most of the browserless setup wedge and no customer or adoption evidence justified a separate analytics-governance product.

Cause of Death

Computer-Use Substitution and No Validated Demand

Lessons Learned

A browserless agent workflow is not a durable product wedge when general computer-use systems can absorb the same task. Validate whether buyers require durable declarative state, review, and drift control—not merely automation—and keep cross-cutting credential infrastructure separate from a vertical wrapper.

What I'd Do Differently

Test the complete workflow with current computer-use agents before building a dedicated control plane, and obtain named customer evidence for configuration review or drift-management pain before investing beyond a thin prototype. Do not revive TrackCTL unless real PostHog teams demonstrate that declarative governance remains urgent after computer-use automation and EnvBank-style secret handling are available.
