What it does

Exploring Replay Vision Observations is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Guides agents through pulling a Replay Vision scanner's observations, reading the findings, and acting on them — summarizing patterns across sessions, drilling into individual recordings, and turning real, corroborated issues into PostHog tasks, insights, or an investigating-replay hand-off. TRIGGER when: user wants to pull/read/triage Replay Vision observations, asks "what has my scanner found", wants to act on or summarize scanner findings, turn observations into tasks/work, or points at a…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • : user wants to pull/read/triage Replay Vision observations
  • Asks what has my scanner found
  • Wants to act on
  • Summarize scanner findings

Example prompts

  • “what has my scanner found”
  • “Use the exploring-replay-vision-observations skill to guide agents through pulling a Replay Vision scanner's observations, reading the findings, and…”
  • “/exploring-replay-vision-observations”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Anchor on the scanner
  2. Pull the observations
  3. Read the findings
  4. Act on the findings

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 812e5c6. 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

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • us.posthog.com

    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

Exploring Replay Vision Observations loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 183 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,688 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~183
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.5k

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 1,688 words (~3,512 tokens).

“A scanner is a standing LLM probe over session recordings; each time it runs against a session it records one observation. This skill is about the other half of the loop — reading what the scanners have found and doing…”
