What it does

Triaging Warehouse Sync Tickets is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Debug a customer's data warehouse source, schema, or table from a support ticket, using PostHog's own production data. Use when a ticket says a warehouse table is stale, empty, stuck, duplicated, missing rows, or failing to sync, and you need the real state of the sync rather than the customer's description. The customer is on a team your MCP session cannot reach, so every answer comes from execute-sql with a connectionId set to a direct-connect source over PostHog's live production databases, which hold all…

Its SKILL.md is about 6.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/query-cookbook.md`).

It sits in Databases, covering Data warehousing, Customer support and SQL. It works with PostHog, SQL, ClickHouse and PostgreSQL. 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

  • A ticket says a warehouse table is stale
  • Failing to sync
  • You need the real state of the sync rather than the customers description

Example prompts

  • “s live production databases, which hold all customers”
  • “/triaging-warehouse-sync-tickets”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Find the region
  2. Open the right connections
  3. Locate the source, the schema, and the table
  4. Read the job history
  5. Read the logs
  6. Check the metrics
  7. Build the picture, then recommend

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).

    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

Triaging Warehouse Sync Tickets loads about 6.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 261 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,257 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~261
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~6.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~9.8k

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: warnings

The automated check found patterns that need a careful read before installing.

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 3,257 words (~6,303 tokens).

“A support ticket tells you what a customer sees. This skill tells you what actually happened. The output is a diagnosis plus one recommended action for the support agent.”
