PostHog MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to PostHog and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 583 PostHog actions (279 reads, 227 writes and 77 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the PostHog credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces PostHog's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect PostHog in three steps.

  1. 01

    Add actionlake to Claude.

    Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect PostHog.

    Bearer token. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    • tokenPostHog personal API key (phx_...)
    • hostWhere your PostHog lives: your host
    • project_idYour PostHog project id
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "posthog" }
# free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
  3. 03

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

    Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

Top actions

The PostHog API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 243 of PostHog's 264 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Each one names the PostHog actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

The plan store

Ready-made plans for PostHog.

10 plans in the store. Install one and your agent runs it by name; the reply says which connections are still missing. A schedule can run a plan on a timetable. There are no triggers or webhooks, by design.

Governance for PostHog

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

77 PostHog actions are destructive. The first 10:

  • Delete Groups Typesposthog.groups_types.delete
  • Delete Dashboardsposthog.dashboards.delete
  • Delete Dashboard Templatesposthog.dashboard_templates.delete
  • Delete Usersposthog.users.delete
  • Delete Organizations Membersposthog.organizations.members.delete
  • Create Persons Bulk Deleteposthog.persons.bulk_delete.create
  • Delete Actionsposthog.actions.delete
  • Delete Cohortsposthog.cohorts.delete
  • Delete Experimentsposthog.experiments.delete
  • Delete Web Experimentsposthog.web_experiments.delete

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Questions

The PostHog MCP server, answered.

Is there a PostHog MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 583 PostHog actions across error tracking, organizations, experiments and dashboards, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by PostHog.

What do I need to connect PostHog?

PostHog personal API key (phx_...). Plus your host and your project id. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "posthog" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in PostHog?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 77 PostHog actions are destructive, including delete Groups Types, delete Dashboards and delete Dashboard Templates. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my PostHog API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the PostHog service file: 240 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (262 PostHog actions can be), which never reaches PostHog.

What does a PostHog action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (583 PostHog actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls PostHog refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which PostHog API does it cover?

The PostHog API 1.0.0 at your PostHog instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from PostHog's documentation as read on 18 September 2026. 583 actions in 41 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my PostHog data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your PostHog credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
