What it does

Hogli is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. PostHog developer CLI and repo tooling reference. Use when the user mentions hogli, asks about repo CLI tools, bin scripts, Makefiles, how to run/build/test/lint, or any dev environment commands.

Its SKILL.md is about 420 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 Development. 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 mentions hogli
  • Asks about repo CLI tools
  • How to run/build/test/lint
  • Any dev environment commands

Example prompts

  • “/hogli”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10f9ad7. 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

Hogli loads about 423 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 181 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~423

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 181 words (~423 tokens).

“Unified CLI for PostHog development. Wraps all repo scripts, bin commands, and tooling behind a single entry point. There is no Makefile — hogli is the equivalent.”
