Apply production-ready PostHog SDK patterns for TypeScript and Python. Use when implementing PostHog integrations, refactoring SDK usage, or establishing team coding standards for PostHog. Trigger with phrases like "posthog SDK patterns", "posthog best practices", "posthog code patterns", "idiomatic posthog".
From posthog-packnpx claudepluginhub nickloveinvesting/nick-love-plugins --plugin posthog-packThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
Guides Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR) with cacheComponents enabled. Implements 'use cache', cacheLife(), cacheTag(), revalidateTag(), static/dynamic optimization, and cache debugging.
Migrates code, prompts, and API calls from Claude Sonnet 4.0/4.5 or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5, updating model strings on Anthropic, AWS, GCP, Azure platforms.
Details PluginEval's skill quality evaluation: 3 layers (static, LLM judge), 10 dimensions, rubrics, formulas, anti-patterns, badges. Use to interpret scores, improve triggering, calibrate thresholds.

| Pattern | Use Case | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Safe wrapper | All API calls | Prevents uncaught exceptions |
| Retry logic | Transient failures | Improves reliability |
| Type guards | Response validation | Catches API changes |
| Logging | All operations | Debugging and monitoring |
