## What it does

The skill covers Roblox analytics through the built-in `AnalyticsService` — no third-party SDK involved. Three event types: Custom for counters and values, Economy for currency flow, Funnel for step progression. The rate limit is 120 + (20 × CCU) calls per minute, so it advises batching.

The economy section flags a common bug: report the balance the committed mutation returned, never recompute it from the `leaderstats` replica, because re-adding double-counts. Sources (earned) and sinks (spent) are logged separately, per SKU. The dashboard lags about 24 hours, while "View Events" validates in real time.

Inside you get API tables, code examples and edge cases in `references/full.md`. There is a Creator Rewards section: no grant event exists in `AnalyticsService`, so you track leading indicators like session duration and onboarding, and payouts live in the Creator Dashboard. First-session traces need a bounded buffer, a shared save owner, and RTBF plus retention handling.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --skill roblox-analytics -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/roblox-analytics/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --skill roblox-analytics -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --skill roblox-analytics -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install TabooHarmony/roblox-brain roblox-analytics
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --skill roblox-analytics -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --path skills/design/roblox-analytics
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TabooHarmony/roblox-brain --skill roblox-analytics -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/TabooHarmony/roblox-brain/tree/HEAD/skills/design/roblox-analytics/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- log an AnalyticsService event without a third-party SDK
- separate currency sources and sinks per SKU
- build a funnel and spot a skipped step
- find where players leave onboarding
- check events are logged and stay under the rate limit

## Example prompts
- add an Economy event for the skin purchase and log the returned balance
- read the onboarding funnel and tell me which step players drop at
- check my AnalyticsService events stay under the rate limit

# Roblox Analytics Reference

## When to Load

Load when tracking player behavior, economy events, funnels, or onboarding traces, or building `AnalyticsService` instrumentation.

## Quick Reference

Key rules:
- Built-in `AnalyticsService`; no third-party SDK.
- Event types: Custom (counters/values), Economy (currency flow), Funnel (step progression)
- Rate limit: 120 + (20 × CCU) calls/minute. Batch where possible.
- Economy events report committed changes; diagnostic events can record failed attempts.
- Report the balance the committed mutation RETURNED; never recompute it from the `leaderstats` replica — re-adding double-counts.
- Economy events track sources (earned) and sinks (spent) separately.
- Funnel steps need not fire in order; skipped steps back-fill when a later step logs.
- Dashboard ~24-hour delay; "View Events" validates in real time.
- Server-side logging preferred; client-side only for UI interaction tracking.
- Creator Rewards: no AnalyticsService grant event. Track leading indicators (session duration, onboarding, referrals); Creator Dashboard owns payouts.
- First-session traces: bounded buffer, shared save owner, RTBF + retention. Eligibility from player history, not missing traces; attempts matter. full.md §8.

**Economy health (decision layer):**
- Instrument from day one; you cannot backfill history.
```
