FAQPage Schema
How do I expose a PostHog API endpoint as an MCP tool?

To expose a PostHog API endpoint as an MCP tool, you define a YAML configuration that scaffolds the tool definition and generates the corresponding TypeScript tool handler for agent discoverability.

What is the pipeline for creating MCP tools from Django serializers?

The MCP tool creation pipeline flows from Django serializers to OpenAPI specifications, then to Zod schemas, culminating in YAML configurations and TypeScript tool handlers.

Do I need YAML configuration to define agent tools in PostHog?

Yes, YAML configuration is required to scaffold and define the MCP tools that facilitate agent interaction with PostHog product endpoints.

How do I scaffold a starter YAML configuration for a new product endpoint?

You can scaffold a starter YAML configuration for a new product endpoint by using the implementing-mcp-tools skill, which streamlines the generation of required agent tool definitions.

What serializer best practices should I follow for agent discoverability?

For agent discoverability, serializer best practices involve structuring your Django serializers to accurately flow into OpenAPI specifications and Zod schemas for MCP tool generation.
