tracking-implementation

A guided skill for implementing Mixpanel analytics, a service that records how people use an application. It covers new setups, additions, and audits, and asks for project details before producing code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan or review Mixpanel tracking, add events to an existing app, build a production setup, or audit analytics implementation.
Why use it?
It helps avoid incorrect SDK choices, missing user-consent controls, incomplete event tracking, and duplicate data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tracking-implementation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Mixpanel Implementation

Engine optional — the core flow (SDK code generation, Live View verification) needs no engine. When schema lookups or post-deploy query checks come up, use an available engine per ENGINE.md; otherwise use the documented fallbacks (direct the customer to Mixpanel Reports and Lexicon). Never stop for a missing engine.

CRITICAL -- DO NOT WRITE ANY CODE YET

This skill is a guided conversation, not a build template. You MUST collect answers from the user before generating any implementation code. Writing Mixpanel code without the inputs below will produce a broken implementation -- wrong SDK, wrong events, missing consent gates, or duplicate data pipelines.

Before writing ANY code, you must know ALL of the following:

  1. Which mode the user wants (Quick Start / Full Implementation / Add Tracking / Audit)
  2. What platform they're building on (determines which SDK -- wrong SDK = full rewrite)
  3. Whether they use a CDP like Segment (if yes, direct SDK installation is wrong -- data must route through the CDP)
  4. Whether they have EU or California users (if yes, events fired before consent = compliance violation requiring data deletion)
  5. What their Value Moment is -- the most important user action (you can't write tracking code without knowing what to track)
  6. For web/JavaScript platforms: whether they want Autocapture and/or Session Replay enabled -- if Autocapture is on, do NOT also set track_pageview: true or write manual page view events (duplicates)

If you do not have explicit answers to items 2--5, ASK. Do not assume. Do not infer from the project name. Do not start building.

The sections below tell you what to ask, in what order, and what to do with the answers. Follow the conversation flow -- it exists because wrong assumptions here create irreversible rework.


Full guidance, vertical-specific event examples, and governance detail are in reference.md. All per-language SDK code snippets are in sdk-snippets.md. Read specific sections on demand as you work through each mode.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

tracking-implementation is a skill published in the GitHub repository mixpanel/ai-plugins (15 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 4,042 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
