diagnosing-stacktrace-symbolication

Help users debug PostHog Error Tracking stack-trace symbolication for any supported platform — JavaScript/TypeScript web, React Native (Hermes), Android (Proguard / R8), or iOS / macOS (dSYM). The PostHog symbol-set lookup flow is universal across platforms; build-tool and artifact details live in per-platform references (JavaScript is fleshed out, others come as we encounter them). Use when stack frames stay minified or obfuscated after symbols are uploaded, PostHog symbol sets show last_used but frames are not readable, chunk IDs or dSYM UUIDs do not match, "Token not found" appears, uploaded source maps / dSYMs / Proguard mappings look empty, or bundler / symbol-upload configuration needs troubleshooting.

Quality

Content

100%

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

A tightly written diagnostic skill: lean prose, executable commands and named MCP tools, a sequenced workflow with validation checkpoints, and clean progressive disclosure to verified per-platform references. Minor opportunity is the three unbuilt platform references, but they are honestly flagged.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean: a one-sentence cross-platform framing of symbolication followed by a tight build→artifact→symbol-set→frame pipeline, with no padded library background or restatement of generic concepts. Every section earns its place.

3 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable commands (the Vite config block, `posthog-cli symbol-sets extract` with npx/bunx variants), exact MCP tool names with parameters, and a verified helper script, plus concrete field-interpretation guidance.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear 5-step sequenced workflow with explicit validation checkpoints (fix the build before debugging the upload; download immediately; compare local/uploaded/served), a feedback loop, and a cross-platform failure-matrix checklist.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The SKILL.md is a well-signaled overview that points one level deep to a verified `references/javascript.md` and `scripts/inspect_sourcemaps.py`, with platform detail appropriately split out and honest "_coming soon_" placeholders; navigation via the Platforms table and inline callouts is easy.

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.

A strong, specific description with an explicit trigger clause and natural diagnostic keywords. It clearly answers both what the skill does and when to use it within a well-defined, low-conflict niche.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the precise domain (PostHog Error Tracking symbolication across four specific platforms) and lists several concrete diagnostic actions and failure signals rather than vague verbs. It is comprehensive rather than naming only some actions, so it clears the top anchor.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly states what it does (debug symbolication) and provides an explicit "Use when..." clause enumerating multiple trigger conditions, answering both what and when.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Uses terms a developer hitting this problem would actually say — "stack frames stay minified or obfuscated", "Token not found", "source maps", "dSYMs", "Proguard mappings", "chunk IDs", "symbol-upload" — giving good natural-language coverage.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The niche — PostHog Error Tracking symbolication for four named platforms — is narrow and tied to distinctive triggers, making conflict with other skills unlikely.
