What is checking-deploy-timing?

Determine when a PostHog code change reached a given environment by reading the hidden GIT deploy annotations in the project and correlating them with the merge commit on GitHub. Use when PostHog staff ask "when was X deployed", "is my change live in the US/EU yet", "has my PR shipped", "did the fix roll out to prod-us", or otherwise want to know whether/when a commit, PR, or feature went out to a region. Do not answer deploy-timing questions from event/data volume alone — that only shows when data changed, not when code shipped.

Checking when something was deployed

PostHog's CI writes a deploy marker into the project as an annotation every time a commit ships to an environment. These annotations are hidden_in_user_interface: true, so they don't show in the UI and are easy to forget — but they are the source of truth for "when did this go out". Always check them when staff ask about deploy timing, rather than inferring from when a metric or event volume changed (that conflates a capture change with a query/code change).

The deploy annotations

List them with posthog:annotations-list using {"search": "deploy"}. Each deploy marker looks like:

  • content: Deployed PostHog/posthog@<sha> to <env> — env is prod-us, prod-eu, or dev
  • creation_type: GIT
