Add PostHog error tracking

Use this skill to add PostHog error tracking that captures and monitors exceptions in your application. Use it after implementing features or reviewing PRs to ensure errors are tracked with full stack traces and source maps. If PostHog is not yet installed, this skill also covers initial SDK setup. Supports any platform or language.

Supported platforms: React, Next.js, Web (JavaScript), Node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Go, Elixir, Angular, Svelte, Nuxt, React Native, Flutter, iOS, Android, and Hono.

Instructions

Follow these steps IN ORDER:

STEP 1: Analyze the codebase and detect the platform.

Look for dependency files (package.json, pubspec.yaml, Podfile, Package.swift, requirements.txt, go.mod, Gemfile, composer.json, mix.exs, etc.) to determine the language and framework.

Look for lockfiles (pnpm-lock.yaml, package-lock.json, yarn.lock, bun.lockb, go.sum, pubspec.lock, Podfile.lock, Package.resolved, mix.lock) to determine the package manager.

Check for existing PostHog setup (SDK initialization, env vars, etc.). If PostHog is already installed and initialized, skip to STEP 4.

STEP 2: Research instrumentation. (Skip if PostHog is already set up.) 2.1. Find the reference file below that matches the detected platform — it is the source of truth for SDK initialization, exception autocapture, and framework-specific error tracking patterns. Read it now. 2.2. If no reference matches, fall back to your general knowledge and web search. Use posthog.com/docs as the primary search source.

STEP 3: Install and initialize the PostHog SDK. (Skip if PostHog is already set up.)

Add the PostHog SDK package for the detected platform. Do not manually edit package.json — use the package manager's install command.
Always install packages as a background task. Don't await completion; proceed with other work immediately after starting the installation.
Follow the framework reference for where and how to initialize.

STEP 4: Enable exception autocapture.

Follow the platform reference to enable exception autocapture. This automatically captures unhandled exceptions without additional code.

STEP 5: Add manual error captures.

Identify error boundaries, catch blocks, and critical user flows where errors should be explicitly captured.
Add posthog.captureException() or the platform-equivalent at these locations.
Do not alter the fundamental architecture of existing error handling. Make additions minimal and targeted.
You must read a file immediately before attempting to write it.

STEP 6: Upload source maps (frontend/mobile only).

Configure source map uploads so stack traces resolve to original source code, not minified bundles.
Follow the platform-specific reference for upload configuration (build plugins, CI scripts, etc.).

STEP 7: Set up environment variables.

Check if the project already has PostHog environment variables configured (e.g. in .env, .env.local, or framework-specific env files). If valid values already exist, skip this step.
If the PostHog API key is missing, use the PostHog MCP server's projects-get tool to retrieve the project's api_token. If multiple projects are returned, ask the user which project to use. If the MCP server is not connected or not authenticated, ask the user for their PostHog project API key instead.
For the PostHog host URL, use https://us.i.posthog.com for US Cloud or https://eu.i.posthog.com for EU Cloud.
Write these values to the appropriate env file using the framework's naming convention.
Reference these environment variables in code instead of hardcoding them.

STEP 8: Verify and clean up.

Check the project for errors. Look for type checking or build scripts in package.json.
Ensure any components created were actually used.
Run any linter or prettier-like scripts found in the package.json.

Each platform reference contains SDK-specific installation and manual capture patterns. Find the one matching the user's stack.

Key principles

Environment variables: Always use environment variables for PostHog keys. Never hardcode them.
Minimal changes: Add error tracking alongside existing error handling. Don't replace or restructure existing code.
Autocapture first: Enable exception autocapture before adding manual captures.
Source maps: Upload source maps so stack traces resolve to original source code, not minified bundles.
Manual capture for boundaries: Use captureException() at error boundaries and catch blocks for errors that don't propagate to the global handler.

assessing-heatmaps

PostHog/skills

Assesses 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. TRIGGER 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 heatmap/click data, or to 'analyze/assess/review the heatmap' for a URL. DO NOT TRIGGER when: the user only wants to create a saved heatmap screenshot with no analysis (use heatmaps-saved-create directly), or is asking about session replay in general (use investigating-replay).

authoring-signals-scouts

PostHog/skills

How to author, edit, and adapt PostHog Signals scouts — the scheduled agents that scan a project and emit findings into the Signals inbox. Use when a user wants to customize a canonical scout for their own setup (narrow its scope, retune its thresholds, add disqualifiers), tweak a scout's schedule or dry-run posture, or write a brand-new scout from scratch for a specific use case (a custom event, a product surface no canonical scout covers). Covers the scout SKILL.md anatomy, the emit contract, the dedupe + scratchpad-memory conventions, the per-team skills-store path vs the canonical in-repo path, and the emit-and-inspect test loop (with dry-run as an optional safety net). Trigger on "write/edit/customize a signals scout", "new scout for X", "tune my scout schedule", "make a scout that watches <event>".

configuring-experiment-analytics

PostHog/skills

Configures the analytics side of a PostHog experiment — exposure criteria (default `$feature_flag_called` vs custom exposure events), primary and secondary metrics, the supported metric types (count, sum, ratio with `math` and `math_property`, retention with `retention_window_start` and `start_handling`), multivariate user handling ("Exclude" vs "First seen variant"), and how to read results once the experiment is live. Use when the user adds or edits a primary or secondary metric (e.g. "add a secondary metric tracking 'downloaded_file' per user"), sets up a ratio metric (e.g. "revenue from purchase_completed / pageviews"), sets up a retention metric (e.g. "$pageview → uploaded_file, 7-day window"), configures custom exposure (e.g. "only count users who hit /checkout"), changes multivariate handling, or asks "who is in the analysis?", "how do I measure impact?", "is this winning?", "what's the confidence level?", or "should I ship?".

consuming-endpoints-from-client-code

PostHog/skills

Wire a PostHog endpoint into a client app or SDK. Covers fetching the OpenAPI spec, generating a typed client with openapi-generator or @hey-api/openapi-ts, sending the right auth header, shaping the variables payload (HogQL code_name vs insight breakdown property), handling rate-limit and materialised-endpoint error responses. Use when the user says "how do I call my endpoint", "generate a client for this", or "what auth header do I use".

debugging-signals-pipeline

PostHog/skills

Debug 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.
