Querying Posthog Data

Category: Science & Research  ·  Sub-category: science-misc  ·  Last updated:
Explains how to choose typed queries or SQL for PostHog data. Read it before you write HogQL/SQL. Also read it before you call execute-sql against PostHog. Use it to find or aggregate PostHog entities. These entities include insights, dashboards, cohorts, feature flags, experiments, surveys, hog flows, warehouse data, and persons. Use it for trends, funnels, retention, lifecycle, paths, stickiness, web analytics, error tracking, logs, sessions, and LLM traces. Before you calculate a governed business or telemetry measure, check system.information_schema.metrics for an approved definition. Examples include MRR, activation, billable usage, active organizations, and failure rates. Use the approved definition before you derive a measure from raw events or use a typed domain tool. It also covers HogQL differences, system table schemas, functions, query examples, and schema discovery.

From the source SKILL.md

The [guidelines](./references/guidelines.md) explain SQL syntax and schema discovery. Read them when you choose posthog:execute-sql. You do not need them for typed queries.

What this skill does

Querying Posthog Data is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the science-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/querying-posthog-data/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Querying Posthog Data Claude Code skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
