What's Missing in Standard Dokku Architecture
Dokku handles deployments successfully, but these technical events don't automatically trigger user notifications or feature announcements.
Standard Dokku Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow
Standard Flow
1
User has access to Dokku features
2
Features available but usage not monitored
3
No activation prompts for unused features
Skene Flow
1
Monitor Dokku usage patterns and feature adoption
2
Identify users who haven't used key features
3
Trigger feature discovery emails with examples and use cases
4
Track feature adoption and send advanced usage guides

How Skene Fixes This
The Skene setup for Dokku monitors deployment success and automatically sends feature announcements to active users, celebrating technical milestones and driving re-engagement.
Implementation Comparison
Using Skene Infrastructure
Auto-managed state. Installed via Prompt.
Install via Prompt
cursor.mdc
@task: Initialize Skene.
@action: Analyze my local code, validating subscription via `npx skene login`, and generate `skene.config.ts` to implement the Post-Deploy Activation pattern for Dokku.Copy Skene Prompt for Cursor
