Authoring insight alerts

An insight alert checks one saved insight on a schedule and notifies people when the latest value breaks a rule. The job is to pick the rule that matches what the user means by "something is wrong", preview it against real history, and ship it with a cadence and a destination the user agreed to.

When to use this skill

• The user asks to alert on a saved insight, a metric, or a SQL query result.
• The user wants anomaly detection on a metric, or asks for the AI detector.
• The user asks which kind of alert fits a metric.

When not to use this skill

• Alerts on log lines: use authoring-log-alerts.
• Alerts on exceptions or error tracking issues: use authoring-error-tracking-alerts.
• Explaining why an existing alert fired: read its checks with posthog:alert-get, then investigate the metric.
