What it does

Using Kea Disposables is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Use when adding timers (setInterval, setTimeout), event listeners (window.addEventListener, document.addEventListener, MediaQueryList.addEventListener), or any other resource that needs cleanup inside a kea logic. Every logic has cache.disposables.add(setup, key?, options?) and cache.disposables.dispose(key) available via the globally registered disposablesPlugin from the kea-disposables package. Replaces the bare cache.foo = setInterval(...) + beforeUnmount: clearInterval(cache.foo) pattern and auto-pauses…

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

  • Adding timers (setInterval
  • Event listeners (window.addEventListener
  • Document.addEventListener
  • MediaQueryList.addEventListener)

Example prompts

  • “/using-kea-disposables”

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 typescript).

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.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

Using Kea Disposables loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 149 tokens; SKILL.md has 847 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~149
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3k

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 847 words (~2,975 tokens).

“Every kea logic in this repo has cache.disposables injected by disposablesPlugin from the kea-disposables package, registered globally in frontend/src/initKea.ts and in frontend/src/toolbar/index.tsx. Reach for it whenever you create a resource that needs explicit teardown — the plugin runs cleanup on…”
