## What it does

The skill standardises analytics implementation across web and product surfaces. It scans for context files such as `.agents/product-marketing.md` or `.claude/product-marketing.md` before prompting for missing project details. Output follows an object-action convention like `signup_completed` or `cta_clicked`, pairs events with non-PII properties, and drafts `dataLayer.push` snippets for Google Tag Manager.

Production safeguards block modifications to live tags, consent defaults, or destinations without verified rollback versions. If authorization or a rollback path is missing, the skill stops and offers safer alternatives, such as generating diffs or inspecting events inside GTM Preview.

Scope boundaries are strict. This skill handles data collection and verification, while routing attribution modeling to `suede-attribution`, experiment significance to `suede-ab-testing`, and campaign tuning to `suede-ads`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-analytics -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-analytics -a codex
```

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

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-analytics -a cursor
```

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

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills suede-analytics
```

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

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-analytics -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --path skills/suede-analytics
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

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

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-analytics -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

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

## When to use it
- Build an object-action tracking plan for marketing sites and web apps
- Configure Consent Mode v2 defaults and custom key events in GA4
- Implement GTM data layer pushes for user interactions and form submissions
- Separate AI assistant referrals from regular traffic using custom regex channel groups

## Example prompts
- Draft a tracking plan for our SaaS onboarding flow using standard properties
- Create GTM data layer code and triggers for tracking checkout errors
- Configure an AI assistant channel group regex for GA4

# Suede AI Analytics Tracking

Use this measurement playbook to build tracking that supports auditable marketing and product decisions.

## Initial Assessment

Check for `.agents/product-marketing.md` (or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md`) and read it if present: the key conversions, the decisions the data has to serve, and the tools already in place drive every recommendation here.

Then work the intake list under Task-Specific Questions below; ask only what the context file did not already answer.

## Production Changes: Halt Before Mutating

Editing live tags, properties, destinations, or consent settings is the
highest-consequence action in this skill, and Boundaries below forbids doing it
without explicit authorization and a rollback plan. When a task requires one and
you do not have both, halt in four parts:

1. Stop. Do not publish the container, edit the property, or change the consent
   configuration.
2. Name the blocker in one line ("publishing this GTM container version changes
   what fires for all live traffic; I have no rollback version identified").
3. Offer 2-4 options (stage it in Preview and hand over the trace; write the
   change as a diff for the owner to publish; publish after the user names the
   rollback version; scope the change to a test environment).
4. Wait for the answer. Do not pick one and continue.

The same halt applies to anything the Privacy and Compliance section below sends
to legal or privacy review: an unresolved lawful-basis question blocks
implementation, it does not get an assumption.
