Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Guidelines to create/update a new mode for PostHog AI agent. Modes are a way to limit what tools, prompts, and prompt injections are applied and under what conditions. Achieve better results using your plan mode.Key capabilities
- →Define agent modes for specific tasks
- →Configure mode-specific toolkits
- →Implement mode-based prompt injections
- →Manage mode registry and feature flags
- →Create JTBD-style trajectory examples
How it works
The skill guides the implementation of agent modes by defining presets, toolkits, and definitions that manage the agent's context, tool availability, and behavior based on the specific product or use case.
Inputs & outputs
When to use implementing-agent-modes
- →Create a new agent mode for specialized tasks
- →Configure tool availability for agent modes
- →Refine prompt injection logic for agents
- →Update existing agent operational constraints
About implementing-agent-modes
Provides structure for creating specific agent modes in PostHog, allowing developers to define constrained environments with specific tool availability and prompt configurations to improve output consistency.
Guidelines to create/update a new mode for PostHog AI agent. Modes are a way to limit what tools, prompts, and prompt injections are applied and under what conditions. Achieve better results using your plan mode.
When not to use it
- →Merging unrelated modes into a single configuration
- →Creating frontend-only tools without backend context
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires feature flagging for all new modes
- →Tools should be backend-first
How it compares
It provides a structured framework for creating constrained agent environments that improve output consistency by limiting tools and prompts to relevant tasks.
