checking-deploy-timing

Determine when a PostHog code change reached a given environment by reading the hidden GIT deploy annotations in the project and correlating them with the merge commit on GitHub. Use when PostHog staff ask "when was X deployed", "is my change live in the US/EU yet", "has my PR shipped", "did the fix roll out to prod-us", or otherwise want to know whether/when a commit, PR, or feature went out to a region. Do not answer deploy-timing questions from event/data volume alone — that only shows when data changed, not when code shipped.

Quality

Content

100%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The content is a tight, actionable runbook with concrete GitHub and PostHog commands, an explicitly validated workflow with a retry loop, and clean section organization. It stays within scope and adds only what Claude would not already know.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — it does not re-explain git ancestry theory or what annotations are, and every line conveys PostHog-specific operational knowledge that earns its place. Minor explanatory phrases exist but not enough to drop it to the mostly-efficient anchor.

3 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands — `posthog:annotations-list` with `{"search": "deploy"}`, `gh search prs`, `gh pr view --json`, and the `gh api compare` call with a clear `behind_by: 0` interpretation — matching the executable-examples anchor.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear 4-step numbered sequence with an explicit validation checkpoint in step 3 (compare ancestry, check `behind_by`) and a feedback loop ('move to the next newer deploy... and re-check'), plus a pagination caution in step 2.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

A short, single-purpose skill (under 50 lines) with no external references and well-organized sections (annotations, workflow, notes), which the rubric allows to score 3 on organization alone; no nested or broken references exist.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is specific, uses concrete third-person actions, and supplies explicit trigger phrases along with negative scope guidance. It cleanly answers both 'what' and 'when' while remaining concise.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names multiple concrete actions in third person — 'reading the hidden GIT deploy annotations' and 'correlating them with the merge commit on GitHub' — matching the anchor for listing several specific concrete actions rather than just naming a domain.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what the skill does and when to use it via a clearly marked 'Use when PostHog staff ask...' clause plus a negative-scope 'Do not answer...from event/data volume alone', satisfying the explicit-trigger requirement for the top anchor.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Surfaces natural phrasings users would actually say — 'when was X deployed', 'is my change live in the US/EU yet', 'has my PR shipped', 'did the fix roll out to prod-us' — giving strong coverage of common variations, not just jargon.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche — PostHog deploy timing via hidden GIT annotations correlated with GitHub merge commits — with triggers unlikely to match unrelated skills, matching the clear-niche anchor.
