diagnosing-missing-recordings

Diagnoses why a session recording is missing or was not captured. Use when a user asks why a session has no replay, why recordings aren't appearing, or wants to troubleshoot session replay capture issues for a specific session ID or across their project. Covers SDK diagnostic signals, project settings, sampling, triggers, ad blockers, and quota/billing scenarios.

Quality

Content

93%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

A tight, executable diagnostic workflow that respects the context budget and pushes detail to one-level-deep references. The only minor gap is the absence of an explicit validate/retry loop for the "Unknown" verdict path, which keeps workflow clarity just below the top anchor.

Suggestions

Add a brief feedback step for the "Unknown" verdict (e.g., query the session's full event timeline and re-evaluate against the signal list) to close the workflow's only validation gap.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — it never explains what PostHog, an SDK, or an ad blocker is; every table, SQL query, and verdict entry earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable guidance: copy-paste `posthog:session-recording-get` call, exact-property SQL queries, and a verdict→recommendation table covering the common diagnostic cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear 5-step sequenced workflow with branching at Step 1 (exists vs 404) and prioritized verdicts at Step 3; it lacks an explicit re-query/retry feedback loop for the "Unknown" verdict, which is a minor validation gap.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is a concise overview with clearly signaled, one-level-deep markdown links to three real reference files (diagnostic-signals.md, diagnosis-logic.md, examples.md); detail is appropriately split and easy to navigate.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

A strong, well-scoped description: concrete action, explicit trigger guidance with natural user phrasings, comprehensive sub-scenario coverage, and clear distinctiveness. No padding or over-claims.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Diagnoses why a session recording is missing or was not captured" states a concrete action, and the coverage list ("SDK diagnostic signals, project settings, sampling, triggers, ad blockers, and quota/billing scenarios") names multiple specific sub-scenarios comprehensively.

5 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers "what" (diagnoses missing/not-captured recordings across the listed domains) and "when" via a concrete "Use when..." clause with multiple trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

"Use when a user asks why a session has no replay, why recordings aren't appearing, or wants to troubleshoot session replay capture issues" captures the natural phrasings a user would actually say, with synonyms (no replay, aren't appearing, troubleshoot).

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The session-replay-capture-diagnosis niche is clearly bounded with distinct triggers, making overlap with other skills minimal.
