# Onboarding Flow Skill


## How this skill behaves (read first)

This is a **generative** skill, and onboarding is a prime **over-design** trap: the default instinct is a multi-screen tour nobody reads plus a wall of upfront questions and "enable all permissions" prompts — which actively *blocks* the product and drives drop-off. The lessons are blunt: **most apps don't need a tutorial; users learn by using.** So this skill gates hard:

1. **First gate: does this even need onboarding?** Often the answer is "barely" — and the best onboarding is the lightest one that gets users to value.
2. **Apply the always-true core** — the principles that hold for any first-run experience.
3. **Choose the method and asks deliberately** — surface the context-dependent decisions with trade-offs; don't default to a 6-screen carousel.

Then **hand off to the audits** — especially `dark-patterns` (onboarding is where forced permissions/notifications and friend-spam concentrate).
