What it does

Finding Sessions To Watch is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Guides a user from "I want to watch recordings but don't know which ones" to a short, high-signal list of sessions worth watching. Use when the user asks which sessions or replays to watch, wants help finding interesting / useful recordings, says they don't know where to start in session replay, or wants to watch sessions about a goal (signup, pricing, onboarding, checkout, a feature, rageclicks, errors, mobile, a specific person) without naming exact filters. Turns a vague intent into a focused RecordingsQuery…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.6k 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 Mobile. 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 sessions
  • Replays to watch
  • Wants help finding interesting / useful recordings
  • Says they dont know where to start in session replay

Example prompts

  • “I want to watch recordings but don”
  • “Use the finding-sessions-to-watch skill to guide a user from "I want to watch recordings but don't know which ones" to a short, high-signal list of…”
  • “/finding-sessions-to-watch”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Pin down the goal
  2. Discover before you filter
  3. Run a minimal query
  4. Triage and present
  5. Offer the next step

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 (its code samples are json and sql).

    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

Finding Sessions To Watch loads about 2.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 203 tokens; SKILL.md has 975 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~203
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.6k

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 975 words (~2,573 tokens).

“Most people open session replay with a goal ("why are signups dropping?") but no idea which of thousands of recordings to watch. A raw, unfiltered list is the worst possible answer — it buries the useful sessions in noise. Your…”
