Converts engineering analytics (PR / CI) data into saved PostHog insights, dashboards, and subscriptions, and explains what data the product reads so it can be queried directly with SQL. The engineering analytics dashboard and MCP tools run curated HogQL privately over per-team GitHub warehouse tables; this skill teaches discovering those tables via engineering-analytics-sources, replicating the curated column semantics in HogQL, reading the exposed engineering_analytics_* warehouse views where product logic is involved (CI cost, fingerprinted failure lines, commit attribution), saving the query with insight-create, and scheduling delivery with subscriptions-create. Use when asked to "save this as an insight", "put CI health / merge times on a dashboard", "email me PR throughput weekly", "chart CI cost", "track time to first review", "subscribe to these numbers", "alert on CI success rate", or "what data/tables/views does engineering analytics read". For ad-hoc CI and merge questions use diagnosing-ci-and-merge-bottlenecks; to investigate one specific CI failure use investigating-ci-failures.

Documentation
README · ~6 min readTurning engineering analytics into insights and subscriptions
The engineering analytics dashboard and MCP tools (pull-requests, workflow-health, pr-lifecycle, engineering-analytics-broken-tests, …)
run curated HogQL privately: nothing in the UI or the tool output names the underlying tables,
and the endpoints cannot themselves be saved as insights or subscribed to.
The data, however, is queryable directly, through two substrates:
- Raw warehouse tables —
<prefix>github_pull_requests,<prefix>github_workflow_runs,<prefix>github_workflow_jobs,<prefix>github_reviews, and<prefix>github_teams/<prefix>github_team_members(org team membership — the author→team map) — ordinary team-scoped tables you query with HogQL. - Three curated warehouse views with fixed names —
engineering_analytics_job_costs,engineering_analytics_ci_job_history,engineering_analytics_ci_failures— provisioned per team from the
