resolving-ingestion-warnings

Diagnoses and resolves PostHog ingestion warnings — problems recorded while ingesting events (dropped events, rejected person merges, oversized payloads, invalid data). Use when a user asks why events are missing, dropped, or undercounted, why identify/alias calls don't work or accounts stay duplicated, why person or group properties aren't updating or profiles look inflated, why recordings have gaps, heatmaps are empty, LLM token counts are missing, why cookieless events vanish, or whenever the `ingestion_warning` health check fires. Explains severity triage (error = dropped, warning = modified, info = intentional) and routes all warning types — size limits and enrichment, merges and distinct IDs, `$process_person_profile`, timestamps, cookieless, heatmaps, transformations, session replay — to per-issue reference files with code-level causes and per-SDK fixes.

Low

W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

What this means

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.

Why it was flagged

The required runtime workflow queries PostHog health issues and then uses `posthog:execute-sql` against `system.ingestion_warnings` to fetch `details` (raw JSON, including fields like `distinctId`/`eventUuid`) which is explicitly treated as untrusted event-supplied input and therefore originates from outsider-authored event payloads at runtime.
