GROWTH PATTERN

Implementing User Segmentation with Hasura

While Hasura handles database operations well, state changes don't automatically trigger user engagement or retention campaigns.

What's Missing in Standard Hasura Architecture

Hasura stores data efficiently, but there's no system to track user behavior patterns and identify when users become inactive or hit growth milestones.

Standard Hasura Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow

Standard Flow
1

User has access to Hasura features

2

Features available but usage not monitored

3

No activation prompts for unused features

Skene Flow
1

Monitor Hasura 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 infrastructure for Hasura tracks user activity and segments users by engagement. It automatically triggers retention campaigns for dormant users and celebrates milestones for active users.

Implementation Comparison

Using Skene Infrastructure

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 Retention Loop pattern for Hasura.

Copy Skene Prompt for Cursor

Generated skene.config.ts

skene.config.ts
// skene.config.ts - The Automated Way
import { defineLoop } from '@skene/sdk';

export default defineLoop({
  type: 'retention',
  opinion: 'Detect dormant users and trigger personalized re-engagement campaigns',
  steps: [
    {
      trigger: {
        type: 'schedule',
        cron: '0 9 * * *' // Daily at 9 AM
      },
      condition: {
        type: 'query',
        query: `SELECT * FROM users WHERE last_activity_at < NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days' AND re_engagement_sent = false`,
        timeout: '10m'
      },
      action: {
        type: 'email',
        provider: 'resend',
        template: 're_engagement',
        personalization: {
          name: '{{user.name}}',
          lastActivity: '{{user.last_activity_at}}'
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  recovery: {
    retries: 3,
    backoff: 'exponential'
  }
});
