Best practices for agents managing PostHog skills via the MCP `skill-*` tools — how to discover, read, create, update, and refactor skills efficiently, especially large skills with many bundled files. Use whenever you are about to call any `skill-*` tool, asked to author or edit a shared skill, or troubleshoot why a skill write was rejected. Pairs with `skills-store` (which covers the raw tool surface) by adding the decision-tree, efficiency, and pitfall guidance.
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.

Maintenance
Best practices for agents managing PostHog skills via the MCP `skill-*` tools — how to discover, read, create, update, and refactor skills efficiently, especially large skills with many bundled files. Use whenever you are about to call any `skill-*` tool, asked to author or edit a shared skill, or troubleshoot why a skill write was rejected. Also use when asked what skills are good for or how to shape one (project hub, runbook, catalog, handover, daily driver). Pairs with `skills-store` (which covers the raw tool surface) by adding the decision-tree, efficiency, pattern, and pitfall guidance.
