name	cursor-plugin-posthog-finding-experiments
description	Resolves a PostHog experiment reference from natural language to a concrete experiment ID by browsing `experiment-list` (not feature-flag tools), with disambiguation when multiple experiments match. Use when the user names or quotes an experiment ("split test demo", "the File engagement boost experiment", "onboarding retention test", "landing page hero experiment", "pricing experiment"), describes it loosely ("the signup experiment", "my pricing test", "the one with the new checkout"), uses a relative reference ("latest", "most recent", "the one I created yesterday"), filters by status (running, draft, stopped, archived), or otherwise refers to an experiment by anything other than its concrete ID.

Finding experiments

Users refer to experiments by name, description, or relative references — not by ID. This skill resolves natural language references to concrete experiment IDs.

How to find an experiment

Use the experiment-list tool from the Posthog-local MCP server.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT use feature-flag-get-all or any feature flag tool to find experiments. Use the dedicated experiment list tool: experiment-list.

This tool returns experiments with their id, name, status, feature_flag_key, start_date, end_date, and created_at. Browse the returned list to find the experiment matching the user's reference:

• By name: scan the name field for matches
• By recency: results are ordered newest first by default
• By status: match the status field (draft, running, stopped)
• By flag key: match the field
