  • Works in 5 steps: One-shot pull → Triage failures → Present the audit → …
  • The user asks which of my views are broken?

What it does

Auditing Warehouse View Health is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Audit the health of a PostHog project's materialized views (saved queries) — find every failed materialization and flag unused or stale materialized views that cost storage and compute. Use when the user asks "which of my views are broken?", "why is this materialized view failing?", "are any of my views wasting compute?", or wants a one-shot triage of view health. For source/sync health use auditing-warehouse-source-health.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Databases, covering Data warehousing. It works with PostHog. The repository describes itself as: :hedgehog: PostHog is the leading platform for building self-driving products. Our developer tools – AI observability, analytics, session replay, flags, experiments, error…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks which of my views are broken?
  • Why is this materialized view failing?
  • Are any of my views wasting compute?
  • Wants a one-shot triage of view health

Example prompts

  • “which of my views are broken?”
  • “why is this materialized view failing?”
  • “are any of my views wasting compute?”
  • “/auditing-warehouse-view-health”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. One-shot pull
  2. Triage failures
  3. Present the audit
  4. Go beyond active failures (when asked)
  5. Offer the next step

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c012c8d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Auditing Warehouse View Health loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 115 tokens; SKILL.md has 765 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~115
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 765 words (~1,770 tokens).

“This skill produces a project-wide audit of materialized views (materialized saved queries) in the data warehouse — which ones are failing, and which are materialized but unused. Use it when the user wants a summary of view health, not a…”
