Working with PostHog skills
This skill teaches agents how to use the llma-skill-* MCP tools well — minimum
context, minimum round-trips, minimum mistakes. If you are not yet familiar with
the tool surface itself, read the skills-store skill first for the catalog.
This document is about how to choose between the tools and how to scale the
workflow when skills get big.
Operating principles
- Progressive disclosure is non-negotiable. Lists return descriptions, get returns body + manifest, file-get returns one file. Never preload bundled files "just in case" — every preloaded script is wasted context for the actual task.
- Pick the smallest write primitive that does the job. A targeted
editsorfile_editsis cheaper, safer, and clearer in version history than a full body or full bundle replacement. - Reads are cheap; concurrent overwrites are not. Always have a recent
versionfromllma-skill-get(or from the response of the previous write)
