exploring-mcp-tool-original-user-motive
exploring-mcp-tool-original-user-motive is the official agent skill of PostHog published by posthog, listed under analytics & experiments. It lives in the PostHog/skills repository, which has 75 GitHub stars and is licensed under MIT; we last read it on 2026-09-16.
Build a starting-point taxonomy for an MCP tool — what users were trying to accomplish before they reached the tool — and publish it as a PostHog notebook. Reconstructs each session's goal from its opening tool calls, then clusters those goals into named categories with size, share, and facet mix. Use when the user asks "why do people use this tool?", "what are users actually trying to do?", "what problem brings people here?", "where do these sessions start?", "segment usage of <tool> by goal", or wants a Clio-style taxonomy of MCP usage. Complements exploring-mcp-intent-clusters, which groups what agents did per call rather than why the session began. The agent running this skill writes the goal labels itself, reading the corpus query output session by session — the bundled scripts cover the mechanical facets but measurably lose the goal's altitude, so do not delegate that field to them.
Install
skills is a generic installer for any repository of Claude agent skills -- it reads PostHog/skills’s own structure rather than assuming one, the same way this page reads the skill’s own SKILL.md rather than assuming a format.

Unverified means a mention in the skill’s own description, not a citation. A wrong claim here costs nothing to correct and nothing to trust yet.
