HOW IT IS WIRED

Real code from the GAS template

The excerpt below is lifted verbatim from lib/posthog.ts in the gas-template repository. This is the code your generated app gets, not pseudocode, not a description of intent.

// lib/posthog.ts — consent-aware PostHog initialization
export async function getPostHog(): Promise<PostHog | null> {
  if (!await isAnalyticsConsentGranted()) return null;
  if (_posthog) return _posthog;

  const apiKey = gasConfig.backend.posthog.apiKey;
  const host   = gasConfig.backend.posthog.host ?? 'https://app.posthog.com';
  if (!apiKey) return null;

  _posthog = new PostHog(apiKey, { host });
  return _posthog;
}

export async function captureEvent(
  event: string,
  properties?: AnalyticsProperties,
): Promise<void> {
  const ph = await getPostHog();
  if (!ph) return;
  ph.capture(event, properties ? sanitize(properties) : undefined);
}

export async function identifyPostHogUser(
  userId: string,
  traits?: AnalyticsProperties,
): Promise<void> {
  const ph = await getPostHog();
  if (!ph) return;
  ph.identify(userId, traits ? sanitize(traits) : undefined);
}
