Verdicts

PostHog

PostHog suits agents that need to query product data and manage flags or experiments. Its hosted MCP server has OAuth scopes, a read-only mode and a one-tool CLI mode over 1,096 tools. The status page shows 31 incidents in 90 days, four on analytics queries, and three security incidents were disclosed in the last year.

Woopra

Woopra's REST API returns saved Trends, Journeys, Retention and Attribution reports, profiles and raw session logs, with published limits of 300 calls a minute and 3,000 a day per project. A report must first be built in the web app, the tracking endpoints accept events without a secret by default, and no changelog or SLA was found.

Before you call either

PostHog

  1. Add ?readonly=true or the x-posthog-read-only header to the MCP URL unless the task needs writes
  2. Pin the session with x-posthog-project-id, which also removes the switch-project and switch-organization tools
  3. In CLI mode run info <tool> once before call, and send one exec command per request
  4. On a 429 with code api_queries_budget_exceeded, wait for Retry-After and read X-PostHog-Query-Budget-Remaining-Bytes
  5. Page SQL results by keyset on timestamp. OFFSET returns 400 for personal API keys, and results cap at 50,000 rows

Woopra

  1. Ask the owner to build and save each report in the web app first, then pass the last path segment of its URL as report_id
  2. Authenticate REST calls with HTTP Basic, using the App ID and Secret Key from the Access Keys tab, against https://www.woopra.com/rest/3.10/
  3. Stay under 300 calls a minute, 600 an hour and 3,000 a day per project. A 429 carries no documented retry interval, so back off on your own schedule
  4. Reuse the snapshot ID from the first response when paging with offset, or pages past 1,000 records may not agree
  5. Send cookie or a cv_ identifier such as cv_email on every track call. Without one the event lands on a random profile that can't be identified later
  6. When reading /logs/export, delete the profile named in each type: "delete" line. The following lines log its data again under new_id
