PR Evaluation Report

Summary

This PR integrates PostHog analytics into a Nuxt 4 movies application, adding both client-side (posthog-js) and server-side (posthog-node) tracking. The implementation includes user identification, session management, comprehensive event tracking across 13 different user interactions, and error/exception capture.

Files changed	Lines added	Lines removed

Confidence score: 3/5 🤔

• Missing page view tracking: No automatic page view tracking is configured. The PostHog client init does not include capture_pageview: true or capture_pageleave: true options, missing baseline analytics. [MEDIUM]
• Server-side SDK instantiation on every request: Creating a new PostHog instance and calling shutdown() on every API request is inefficient. Should use a singleton pattern or Nuxt plugin. [MEDIUM]
• Missing reverse proxy configuration: No reverse proxy setup to circumvent ad blockers when sending events to PostHog. [MEDIUM]
• Invalid defaults config value: The posthogDefaults: '2025-11-30' in nuxt.config.ts is not a valid PostHog configuration option - this appears to be an error. [MEDIUM]
• Environment variables not documented: .env.example was not updated with PostHog environment variables (NUXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY, NUXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST). [LOW]

File changes

Filename	Score	Description
plugins/posthog.client.ts	4/5	PostHog client initialization with Vue error hook. Good structure but missing page view config
nuxt.config.ts	3/5	Runtime config added but posthogDefaults value is invalid
package.json	5/5	Correctly adds both posthog-js and posthog-node dependencies
server/api/auth/login.post.ts	3/5	Server tracking works but creates new PostHog instance per request
server/api/auth/logout.post.ts	3/5	Server tracking works but same inefficiency concern
pages/login.vue	5/5	Proper identify and capture calls for login events
components/NavBar.vue	5/5	Correct logout tracking with posthog.reset()
components/ExternalLinks.vue	4/5	Good external link tracking across all platforms
components/LanguageSwitcher.vue	5/5	Good language change tracking with before/after values
components/media/Card.vue	5/5	Good media card click tracking with rich properties
components/media/Details.vue	5/5	Good tab change tracking with context
components/video/Card.vue	5/5	Good video play tracking
pages/search.vue	5/5	Good search tracking
error.vue	5/5	Excellent error tracking with both event and captureException
types/nuxt-app.d.ts	5/5	Proper TypeScript declarations
composables/useAuth.ts	5/5	Minimal style changes, preserves logic
middleware/auth.global.ts	5/5	Whitespace only change
unocss.config.ts	5/5	Style formatting only

App sanity check: 4/5 ✅

Criteria	Result	Description
App builds and runs	Yes	Standard Nuxt config, no breaking changes
Preserves existing env vars & configs	Partial	.env.example not updated with PostHog vars
No syntax or type errors	Yes	TypeScript declarations properly added
Correct imports/exports	Yes	All imports use proper Nuxt auto-imports and package imports
Minimal, focused changes	Yes	Changes are focused on PostHog integration only

Issues

• Environment variables not documented: .env.example should include NUXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY and NUXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST entries for developer onboarding. [LOW]
• Invalid posthogDefaults config: The value '2025-11-30' passed to defaults option is not a valid PostHog configuration. This may cause runtime warnings or be silently ignored. [MEDIUM]

Other completed criteria

• TypeScript declarations properly added in types/nuxt-app.d.ts
• Consistent code style maintained throughout
• Error handling preserved in auth composable
• Proper optional chaining used for PostHog calls (posthog?.capture())

PostHog implementation: 3/5 ⚠️

Criteria	Result	Description
PostHog SDKs installed	Yes	posthog-js: ^1.345.5 and posthog-node: ^5.24.15 in package.json
PostHog client initialized	Yes	Client plugin initializes via posthog.init() with runtime config
capture()	Yes	13 distinct events captured across client and server
identify()	Yes	posthog.identify(username) called on successful login
Error tracking	Yes	captureException() in error.vue and Vue error hook
Reverse proxy	No	No reverse proxy configuration to circumvent ad blockers

Issues

• No automatic page view tracking: The PostHog initialization should include capture_pageview: true to track page views automatically. Currently only custom events are tracked. [MEDIUM]
• No reverse proxy for ad blocker bypass: Events sent directly to posthog.com will be blocked by ad blockers. A reverse proxy through the app's domain should be configured. [MEDIUM]
• Inefficient server-side SDK usage: Creating a new PostHog instance and calling shutdown() on every API request is wasteful. Should use a server plugin singleton pattern. [MEDIUM]
• Server-side tracking relies on client headers: Server events rely on x-posthog-session-id and x-posthog-distinct-id headers, but no configuration enables these headers in the client SDK (__add_tracing_headers is not set). [CRITICAL]

Other completed criteria

• API key passed via environment variable (not hardcoded)
• Correct API host configuration via env var
• posthog.reset() called on logout for session cleanup
• Debug mode enabled in development
• Vue error hook captures exceptions globally

PostHog insights and events: 4/5 ✅

Filename	PostHog events	Description
pages/login.vue	user_logged_in, login_failed	Tracks authentication success/failure with error messages
components/NavBar.vue	user_logged_out	Tracks logout with session reset
pages/search.vue	search_performed	Tracks search queries for product analytics
components/media/Card.vue	media_card_clicked	Tracks content engagement with media_id, type, title, rating
components/media/Details.vue	media_tab_changed	Tracks tab navigation with context
components/video/Card.vue	video_played	Tracks video engagement with video details
components/ExternalLinks.vue	external_link_clicked	Tracks outbound clicks by platform
components/LanguageSwitcher.vue	language_changed	Tracks i18n preference changes
error.vue	error_page_viewed, captureException	Full error tracking and exception capture
server/api/auth/login.post.ts	server_login_success, server_login_failed	Server-side auth tracking
server/api/auth/logout.post.ts	server_logout	Server-side logout tracking

Issues

• Missing page view tracking: No automatic pageview events are captured, which is essential baseline analytics. [MEDIUM]
• Missing feature flag support: No feature flag integration implemented. [LOW]

Other completed criteria

• Events represent real user actions (login, search, content interaction)
• Events include relevant properties for analysis (media_id, search_query, platform)
• Funnel potential: search_performed → media_card_clicked → video_played
• Error tracking with both event and exception capture
• Server-side events maintain session correlation
