This repo assembles PostHog context for AI agents and LLMs into Agent Skills-compliant packages. Check out /context for details.
Need output in a different format? No problem. Let us know in #team-docs-and-wizard, or fire up a PR to augment the /context and /scripts directories with your preferred transformation.
Have a skill you want to make sure is maintained and distributed via the wizard?
We'd love your pull request!
The context mill gathers up-to-date content from multiple sources, packaging PostHog developer docs, prompts, and working example code into a versioned manifest which can be shipped anywhere as a zip file.
The PostHog MCP server currently fetches the examples repo manifest and exposes it to any MCP-compatible client as resources and slash commands. This is what currently powers the PostHog wizard.
The examples repo effectively acts as a context engine, an assembly line for turning disparate PostHog knowledge into something portable, something AI systems can reliably consume.
You can break its context engineering flow into three main stages.
1. Context sourcing: The examples repo pulls from the entire PostHog developer docs, with pages delivered from posthog.com as raw Markdown. It also includes curated, hand-crafted prompts and working example apps.
2. Context assembly: The examples repo transforms and packages the sourced context into a zip file manifest, which is meant to be portable and self-contained. We can structure and shape the manifest however we need.
3. Context delivery: The examples repo creates a versioned release for the manifest, which can be consumed by any agent or MCP server as a skill or resource.
We've got live, working example code that demonstrates PostHog in action. You can run these yourself to see events flow into your PostHog project.
These are more like model airplanes. They're dramatically simplified to make it easy to see PostHog in action. You shouldn't use these as starter projects or put them into production. The authentication is fake!
But the leanness makes these useful for agent-driven development. Use these as context to help your agent make better integration decisions about PostHog.

Run npm run build to generate the release artifacts:
| Output | Description |
|---|---|
dist/skills/<id>.zip | Per-skill bundles (SKILL.md + references + shared docs) |
dist/skills/manifest.json | Versioned manifest of every bundled skill and its download URL |
dist/skills/skill-menu.json | Category groupings and cliEntries — the wizard's command lookup table |
Releases are cut as GitHub releases. Consumers (the wizard, the MCP server,
anything else) fetch manifest.json / skill-menu.json from the latest
release and download the per-skill ZIPs on demand.
The manifest describes the built skills — one resource per skill, with id,
name, description, tags, uri, and a downloadUrl pointing at the
GitHub release asset. Each bundled skill contains a SKILL.md, references/
step files, and any shared docs pulled from posthog.com at build time.
Add numbered step files to context/skills/<skill>/references/ using the
convention <n>-<name>.md with next_step: frontmatter pointing to the next
file. The build script discovers, orders, and bundles them automatically.
Skills in this repo declare how they surface as wizard commands via a cli:
block in their config.yaml. That mechanism — role, parentCommand,
command, flat vs. family — is documented in
CONTRIBUTING.md.
The CLI was overhauled to consolidate commands into a smaller, extensible surface. If you (or your agent) knew an older command, here's where it went:
| Old command | New command | What changed |
|---|---|---|
wizard integrate | wizard (default flow) | Command removed; the default flow runs the integration |
wizard events-audit | wizard audit events | Now an audit-family subcommand |
wizard audit (single audit) | wizard audit <subcommand> | Now a family — see the audit subcommands below |
wizard audit-3000 | removed | Retired |
wizard revenue | wizard revenue-analytics | Renamed (old revenue removed) |
wizard upload-sourcemaps | wizard upload-source-maps | Renamed; upload-sourcemaps still works as an alias |
audit is the one family today whose subcommands are skills from this repo:
| Subcommand | Backing skill |
|---|---|
wizard audit events | audit-events (the default leaf) |
wizard audit all | audit |
wizard audit autocapture | audit-autocapture |
wizard audit feature-flags | audit-feature-flags |
wizard audit identify | audit-identify |
wizard audit session-replay | audit-session-replay |
wizard audit web-analytics | (wizard-native, not a skill in this repo) |
Commands vs. skills: those audit subcommands are skills, promoted to commands via
cli: role: command. A skill withrole: skillis reachable only throughwizard skill <id>. Same machinery, two surfaces — sowizard audit <subcommand>picks an audit area, it does not take a skill name.
Commands vs. programs:
integratewas the command; the program behind it isposthog-integration, which still exists and powers the default flow. The program id is internal — it was never a command you typed.
Reviews are auto-requested via .github/CODEOWNERS — the
file is the source of truth; this table just mirrors it for readability.
team-wizard-docs is the default reviewer; the team-owned skills below route
review to their owning team instead.

Ownership is by directory. Skills not listed above (audit, audit-*,
cost-cutting, creating-product-tours, error-tracking, events-audit,
feature-flags, llm-analytics, logs, migrate, omnibus,
posthog-best-practices, quack, tools-and-features) fall through the
default and are owned by team-wizard-docs. Today CODEOWNERS only
auto-requests review — approval is not a merge gate.
Before we ship any skills, we run them through the warlock, PostHog's security scanner for agentic flows. It reads the built skill bundles and looks for prompt-injection attempts and other risky content that could trick an agent downstream. An LLM triage pass then sorts the real threats from the false positives, so we're not chasing noise.
CI runs this automatically on every build and release, so most of the time you don't have to think about it. But if you want to check something locally:
pnpm security-scan:skills # scan all built skill ZIPs (this is what CI runs)
pnpm security-scan path/to/file.md # scan a specific file
Heads up, the skills scan reads from dist/, so run pnpm build first. If a scan flags something, fix the flagged content before releasing :)
