exploring-mcp-intent-clusters

exploring-mcp-intent-clusters is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PostHog/posthog-foss. It costs 130 tokens per session (1,773 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An analytics tool for grouping the goals agents attach to MCP tool calls, then showing which tools serve each group and how often they fail. MCP is a standard way for agents to use external tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore intent clusters, compare tool usage and error rates across goals, and inspect which user goals lead agents to each tool.
Why use it?
It helps you see what agents are trying to accomplish instead of only counting tool calls. It also shows whether tools are discovered, fit their descriptions, overlap with others, and work reliably.

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

exploring-mcp-intent-clusters 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 9d 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.

Exploring MCP intent clusters

Intent clustering takes the free-text $mcp_intent values agents attach to their tool calls, embeds them, and groups semantically similar goals into clusters. Attribution is per call: each call is credited to its own intent (calls without one inherit the most recent prior intent in the same session), so a tool's counts reflect the intent it actually served. Each cluster carries its tool distribution, call counts, and error rates — answering "what are people trying to do, and does it work?" rather than "which tool was called". The snapshot also carries a tool-centric pivot answering the reverse question: for a given tool, which intents drive its usage, how often do agents find it, and who does it compete with.

Unlike tool quality and sessions (which ultimately aggregate $mcp_tool_call), clustering needs embeddings and is not expressible in SQL. It is served by two typed tools backed by a stored snapshot.

Tools

Tool Purpose
posthog:mcp-analytics-intent-clusters-retrieve Fetch the latest cluster snapshot for the project
posthog:mcp-analytics-intent-clusters-recompute Trigger an async recompute of the snapshot

Workflow: read the current clusters

posthog:mcp-analytics-intent-clusters-retrieve
{}

Returns a snapshot with status, last_computed_at, computed_with (the embedding model, clustering parameters, and sample-coverage percentages), a clusters array, a tools array (the tool pivot), and tool_overlaps. Each cluster has a label, intent_count, call_count, error_count, error_rate_pct, routing_entropy, a tool_distribution (which tools that goal routes to, with per-tool error rates), sample_intents, plus switches (errored call immediately followed by a different tool for the same intent — the strongest "agents mix these tools up" evidence) and self_retries (errored call immediately retried with the same tool — a sign the tool's error messages aren't helping agents self-correct).

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.

exploring-mcp-intent-clusters is a skill published in the GitHub repository PostHog/posthog-foss (715 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 130 tokens to every session and 1,773 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-09-03.
