- Writing SkillsGuide for writing PostHog agent skills — job-to-be-done templates that teach agents how to use MCP tools to achieve a goal. Use when adding new product functionality that agents should know how to work with, creating a new skill, or updating existing skills in products/*/skills/ or .agents/skills/.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Downloading Batch Export FilesExport PostHog events, persons, sessions, or the results of a HogQL query on demand and download the resulting files. Use when the user asks to download/export raw PostHog data, export HogQL query results, create a one-off file export, fetch a Parquet or JSONLines export, or use the file_download_batch_exports API. Covers starting the export with MCP, polling completion, and downloading via the existing REST redirect endpoint.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Grouping Noisy ErrorsConsolidate PostHog error tracking issues that are the same actual error reported under different fingerprints. Use when the user asks "why do I have so many TypeError issues that look the same?", "merge these duplicates", "stop splitting this error into new issues", or wants to clean up fingerprint sprawl. Decides between a one-shot merge of existing issues and a durable grouping rule that keeps future events from creating new fingerprints. Does NOT group conceptually similar bugs across dif...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Investigating Error IssueInvestigates a single PostHog error tracking issue end-to-end. Use when the user provides an issue ID or pastes an issue URL (`/error_tracking/<id>`) and wants to understand the error — who it affects, what triggers it, when it started, whether it correlates with a release, browser, OS, or feature flag, and what the next step should be. Pulls aggregated metrics, sample exception events, segment breakdowns, linked replays, and synthesizes a hypothesis-grade summary in one pass.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Suppressing Noisy ErrorsCreate PostHog error tracking suppression rules to drop high-volume, low-value errors at ingestion. Use when the user asks "stop capturing this error", "drop browser extension errors", "ignore ResizeObserver loops", "suppress bot-driven errors", or wants to reduce ingestion cost from noisy unactionable errors. Identifies suppression candidates, scopes the filter tightly, decides between full suppression and sampling, and confirms the rule before creating it. Suppressed errors are dropped perm...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Triaging Error IssuesTriage PostHog error tracking issues during a daily or on-call review. Use when the user asks "what's broken?", "what new errors do we have?", "show me top errors today", "what should I look at this morning", or wants a prioritized list of active issues to work on. Surfaces new and high-impact issues, ranks by users affected and recency, points at linked replays, and proposes next actions (investigate, assign, suppress, merge).Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Finding Sessions To WatchGuides a user from "I want to watch recordings but don't know which ones" to a short, high-signal list of sessions worth watching. Use when the user asks which sessions or replays to watch, wants help finding interesting / useful recordings, says they don't know where to start in session replay, or wants to watch sessions about a goal (signup, pricing, onboarding, checkout, a feature, rageclicks, errors, mobile, a specific person) without naming exact filters. Turns a vague intent into a focu...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Creating Replay Vision ScannersGuides agents through creating and safely sizing a Replay Vision scanner: choosing the scanner type (monitor/classifier/scorer/summarizer), shaping the RecordingsQuery that selects sessions, and — crucially — estimating the credits it will spend and checking the org's remaining budget before creating, so a broad scanner doesn't exhaust the budget on its first scheduled sweep.\nTRIGGER when: user asks to create, set up, or configure a Replay Vision scanner, OR when you are about to call vision...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Debugging Signals PipelineDebug the signals pipeline locally end-to-end. Covers emitting test signals from fixtures, monitoring Temporal workflows via the REST API, reading sandbox agent logs from object storage, inspecting Docker sandbox containers, and diagnosing common failures (stale ClickHouse embeddings, agentsh network denials, inactivity timeouts). Use when a signal isn't reaching the inbox, a signal-report-summary workflow fails, or a sandbox task run times out.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout Csp ViolationsSignals scout for Content Security Policy violations. Watches `$csp_violation` events for blocked-URL clusters, per-directive bursts, post-deploy regressions, and suspicious third- party domains.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout Error TrackingSignals scout for PostHog error tracking. Watches `$exception` bursts, stuck loops, multi- fingerprint clusters, and status regressions.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout GeneralCross-product Signals scout. Looks for cross-product correlations and explores the surfaces the per-product specialist scouts don't cover.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout LogsSignals scout for PostHog logs. Watches for emerging and rate-shifted message patterns, volume bursts, severity-distribution shifts, service silence, and trace-correlated bursts.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout Observability GapsSignals scout for observability gaps — significant event volumes with no insight, dashboard, or alert coverage. Recommends new insights, dashboards, or alerts as the product evolves.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout Revenue AnalyticsSignals scout for PostHog revenue analytics. Watches for upstream failures (Stripe sync stalls, capture regressions), config drift, and goal-miss escalations.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Signals Scout SurveysSignals scout for PostHog surveys. Watches active surveys for score regressions, response- volume drops, abandonment spikes, and targeting drift, and aggregates open-text responses into recurring themes.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Assessing HeatmapsAssesses what a page's heatmap is telling you and recommends concrete changes. Pulls click / rageclick / scroll-depth data for a URL, names the hot elements by cross-referencing autocapture events on the same page, and can create a saved heatmap the user opens in PostHog, then summarizes the behavior and proposes improvements.\nTRIGGER when: user asks what a heatmap shows, why people aren't clicking something, where users rage-click, how far they scroll, what to change on a page based on heat...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Clickhouse Autoresearch CampaignRun a ClickHouse query optimization campaign on one git branch using pi-autoresearch, dynamic lanes and hypotheses, baseline result capture, correctness checks, and stagnation-aware lane/campaign review.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Check Posthog LoadingInspect how the PostHog JavaScript SDK is loaded across a list of URLs. Use to confirm consistent installation across pages, find pages missing the snippet, detect mismatched API keys or hosts between pages, and verify the load method (head snippet vs deferred vs array.js).Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Simulate New UserSend synthetic first-time-visitor traffic to a URL and confirm that PostHog $pageview events fire. Use when a customer wants to verify that anonymous visitor tracking works, after deploying instrumentation changes, or when debugging "events not arriving" reports.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Simulate Returning UserSend synthetic single-session multi-page traffic to a URL and confirm PostHog $pageview events fire across page views. Use when verifying that cookies persist correctly, that the same distinct_id is reused across navigations, or when debugging session-stitching issues.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Verify Posthog InstrumentationUse this skill to verify that PostHog instrumentation is firing correctly on a website. Drives a real browser at one or more URLs, observes which PostHog events actually arrive, and reports a pass/fail summary. Use after installing the PostHog SDK on a site, after a deploy that touches tracking code, or when events appear missing in the PostHog dashboard.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adding Inbox SourcesAdd a new warehouse-backed source to the PostHog Desktop Self-driving Inbox (the feature that ships GitHub, Linear, Zendesk, pganalyze, Jira). A source syncs one warehouse table (issues/tickets/conversations) and a cloud "signals scout" watches it and emits findings. Use when asked to "add a new inbox/self-driving source", "wire up <Jira/GitLab/Sentry/Intercom/Freshdesk/Front/Gorgias/etc> as a signal source", or to extend the source-toggle grid. Covers all three surfaces (posthog/posthog scou...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adding Ingestion WarningsHow to add a new ingestion warning type to the event ingestion pipeline. Use when emitting a new warning from nodejs ingestion code (emitIngestionWarning, captureIngestionWarning, pipeline `warnings` arrays, `drop()` with warnings), when adding a warning type, category, or severity, or when a typecheck error says a string is not assignable to IngestionWarningType. Covers the INGESTION_WARNING_TYPES registry (the single source of truth for type, category, and severity), the details-key convent...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adding Mcp Store ServersAdd a third-party MCP server (Linear, Notion, GitHub, ...) to the PostHog MCP store catalog. Use when asked to "add X to the MCP store", expand the MCP server marketplace, or fix a broken catalog entry. Covers finding the vendor's remote MCP endpoint, probing it (handshake, OAuth discovery, DCR), authoring the catalog entry in products/mcp_store/backend/catalog.py, verification tiers, and the operator handoff for servers without Dynamic Client Registration.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adding Personhog RpcGuide for adding a new RPC to personhog-replica and personhog-router. Covers eligibility checks, proto definition, code generation for Python and Node.js clients, Rust implementation (storage trait, postgres queries, service handler, router wiring), and index compatibility validation.

Not for configuring ...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adding Project Secret Api Key AuthHow to gate a PostHog API endpoint with project secret API key (PSAK) auth — a project-scoped, user-less service credential. Use when adding PSAK support to a viewset action, allowing a new scope for PSAKs, handling synthetic users (ProjectSecretAPIKeyUser), or choosing PSAK-aware rate throttles. Trigger terms: PSAK, ProjectSecretAPIKey, project secret API key, phs_ token, service auth, programmatic endpoint auth.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Adopting Generated Api TypesUse when migrating frontend code from manual API client calls (`api.get`, `api.create`, `api.surveys.get`, `api.dashboards.list`, `new ApiRequest()`) and handwritten TypeScript interfaces to generated API functions and types. Triggers on files importing from `lib/api`, files with `api.get<`, `api.create<`, `api.<entity>.<method>`, manual interface definitions that duplicate backend serializers, or any frontend file that constructs API URLs by hand. Covers the full replacement workflow — findi...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Analyzing Experiment Query PerformancePull and interpret production experiment query-performance data from the staff-only `/api/debug_ch_queries` endpoints backing the `/experiments/staff` scene: slowest experiment queries, precompute read/build health, and preaggregation cache footprint. Covers prod-US and prod-EU via a `query_performance:read` personal API key, all query params, and response field semantics (exception codes, exposure paths, precompute skip reasons, job states). Use when investigating slow or failing experiment ...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Analyzing Insights Across TeamsAnalyze PostHog insights, dashboards, or teams beyond the current project by querying the prod Postgres replicas synced into the dogfood data warehouse (US project 2, "PostHog App + Website"). Use when asked to analyze insights across all teams or projects, another team's insights, or fleet-wide insight/dashboard usage — cases where `system.insights` only returns the current project's rows and the agent would otherwise report the data as inaccessible. Covers the synced table names for US and ...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Announcing Behavior ChangesDecides whether a behavior-changing fix needs an in-app notice, then builds one that reaches only the affected users and can be removed later. Use when a change alters what an existing user sees without them doing anything — a metric moves, a chart shifts, a count drops, a date range resolves differently, a matcher matches differently — and when adding, reviewing, or removing such a notice. Trigger terms: behavior change, breaking change, semantics change, "results may differ", change notice,...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Auditing Llm Gateway ParityAudits services/llm-gateway against PostHog/ai-gateway and updates services/llm-gateway/PARITY.md from current implementation evidence. Use when either gateway changes auth, attribution, billing, endpoints, providers, models, routing, or metadata; when reviewing a Python gateway change; or when asked to refresh, verify, or report gateway parity. This skill updates the parity record but does not migrate callers.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Auditing Warehouse Source CoverageAudit already-implemented Data warehouse import sources for endpoints, schemas, and tables the vendor's API offers but we never wired up. Use when asked whether a source is missing endpoints, to find new endpoints a vendor has added since a source was built, to refresh COVERAGE_GAPS.md, to prioritize which source to deepen next, or to check coverage before an integration review. Covers dumping our real endpoint inventory credential-free, ranking sources by production adoption, diffing against...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Authoring Ci WorkflowsUse when adding or editing a GitHub Actions workflow, composite action, or reusable workflow under `.github/` — new CI jobs, triggers, matrices, checkout/clone tuning, action pinning, GitHub App token auth, concurrency groups, `timeout-minutes`, `paths` filters, caching, or runner choice. Covers PostHog's workflow-authoring conventions and the reasons behind them: the 500-runs/10s dispatch cap, shallow vs full clone, per-SHA push concurrency, dedicated App-token rate-limit buckets, and fork-s...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Autoresolving Pr ConflictsOperating procedure for the conflict-autoresolver agent: sweep open PostHog/posthog PRs that conflict with master, resolve the trivial conflicts (generated artifacts deterministically, source conflicts with judgment), land one merge commit on the PR head, and flag everything else for a human. Use when running as the scheduled conflict autoresolver, when asked to sweep or auto-resolve merge conflicts against master, or when asked to bring a conflicting PR up to date without rewriting its histo...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Building Product Empty StatesGuide for adding a product setup empty state — the skippable first-run screen a product scene shows until real data arrives, built on the shared ProductEmptyState component. Use when adding an empty state or first-run/setup screen to a product scene, declaring `emptyState` on a `SceneExport`, writing a product setup-status detection logic, building an animated example-data preview widget, or deciding between the scene-level `ProductEmptyState` gate and an inline `ProductIntroduction` panel. C...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048

- Debugging Ci FailuresDebugs failing GitHub Actions CI runs for PostHog PRs, commits, and branches, and answers broad CI-health questions ("is CI red?", "is master green today?", "what's broken right now?"). Use when the user asks why CI is red, asks for the current CI or master status, or mentions a failing check, GitHub Actions run, Depot runner, Depot CI run, workflow, job, shard, merge queue kick, flaky test, lint failure, typecheck failure, snapshot diff, migration check, generated types drift, or skills buil...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Debugging Local Task Agent RunsDebug the output of local PostHog task runs — the wizard cloud-run path that executes inside a Docker sandbox under the local Temporal `process-task` workflow (the wizard that integrates PostHog, then the coding agent that commits and opens the PR). Use when a local run looks stuck, failed, or silent, or when you need to read the wizard or agent logs. Covers the `.env.local` keys + `ai_features` intent required for cloud runs locally, finding the task UUID (docker ps, temporal CLI, Temporal U...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Debugging Table Access DeniedDebugs a TableAccessDeniedError from an error tracking issue, Slack alert, or user report. Use when investigating why HogQL denied a system or warehouse table and whether the occurrence is a real bug or expected behavior. Trigger terms include TableAccessDeniedError, table_access_denied, and "You don't have access to table".Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048

Also use when the user mentions depot build, depot bake...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Depot Github RunnersConfigures Depot-managed GitHub Actions runners as a drop-in replacement for GitHub-hosted runners. Use when setting up or migrating GitHub Actions workflows to use Depot runners, choosing runner sizes (CPU/RAM), configuring runs-on labels, setting up ARM or Windows or macOS runners, troubleshooting GitHub Actions runner issues, configuring egress filtering, using Depot Cache with GitHub Actions, or running Dagger/Dependabot on Depot runners. Also use when the user mentions depot-ubuntu, depo...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Django MigrationsDjango migration patterns and safety workflow for PostHog. Use when creating, adjusting, or reviewing Django/Postgres migrations, including non-blocking index/constraint changes, multi-phase schema changes, data backfills, migration conflict rebasing, and product model moves that require SeparateDatabaseAndState. Also use for any deletion or removal of a model, table, column, product, or app — including deleting migration files or retiring a feature — even when no migration is written.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Django Startup TimeKeep heavy imports off the django.setup() path that every process (web, celery, temporal, migrate, shell, CI) pays for. Use when touching AppConfig.ready(), wiring signal receivers, editing the lazy API router (posthog/api/rest_router.py or its __init__.py shim), deferring a heavy import or profiling import time (importtime, hothog), when the startup-import-budget guard fails, or when merging master into a long-lived branch that made the router lazy.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Documenting Warehouse SourcesWrite or update the user-facing posthog.com documentation for a PostHog Data warehouse import source. Use when adding a new source doc, fixing an inconsistent or stub source doc, or standardizing the docs at contents/docs/cdp/sources. Covers the canonical template, shared snippets, the auto-rendered <SourceParameters /> and <SourceTables /> components, frontmatter, and the docsUrl/slug rule that prevents 404s.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Establishing Code OwnershipDetermine which PostHog team owns a file, directory, or code path, or enumerate all code a team owns (via distributed `owners.yaml`, `products/*/product.yaml`, and `.github/CODEOWNERS`). Use when assigning a reviewer, attributing a bug or slow query to a team, routing work, scoping a team-wide audit, or answering "who owns X" / "what does team Y own".Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Extending Hobby Smoke TestsDesign, extend, review, or debug PostHog Hobby end-to-end smoke tests in bin/hobby-ci.py and .github/workflows/ci-hobby.yml. Use when adding an ingestion round trip, deciding whether a product belongs in Hobby CI, changing the CI Hobby service topology or API-key scopes, or diagnosing a smoke test that captures data but cannot query it.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Extending Personhog Test HarnessWhen and how to add scenarios, chaos events, and invariants to the personhog e2e test harness (rust/personhog-test-harness). Use after fixing a bug or regression in the personhog leader path (leader, router, writer, replica, coordination protocol) so the fix gets a permanent regression scenario; when adding a new failure mode to test (crashes, drains, zombies, lag, failover); or when a new correctness property needs asserting during runs. Trigger terms: personhog gate, chaos scenario, test ha...Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
- Finding Llm Gateway Migration CandidatesFinds and ranks callers that could move from services/llm-gateway to PostHog/ai-gateway. Use when asked what to migrate next, to find low-risk gateway migration candidates, to audit remaining Python gateway callers, or to identify callers blocked by Go gateway parity. Searches code and deployment wiring, inventories each caller's required contract, filters out unsupported migrations, and returns an evidence-backed shortlist without changing callers.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 40,048
