Connect PostHog to enable agents to:

  • Update analytics dashboards automatically after PRs merge
  • Keep tracking and feature usage aligned with shipped code
  • Analyze user behavior and product adoption trends
  • Reduce manual analytics maintenance for engineering teams

Official Workflow Templates

The following official workflow template is maintained by the Continue team and is available directly in the Mission Control Hub. This workflow is designed to work out of the box and represents the recommended way to automate PostHog updates.

Update PostHog Dashboards

When a pull request is merged, this workflow updates PostHog dashboards and tracking to reflect newly shipped features or changes.
Official workflow templates may expand over time as new analytics patterns are validated. You can view, enable, and configure this workflow in Mission Control → Integrations → PostHog.

Advanced Use Cases

These examples are not officially maintained by the Continue team, but illustrate what’s possible with custom workflows.
  • Generate product insights from usage data and open follow-up issues
  • Detect tracking gaps when new features ship
  • Summarize weekly product metrics for stakeholders
  • Correlate feature flags with user adoption and retention
  • Trigger investigations when key metrics regress
