What's Missing in Standard Hono Architecture

While Hono provides a solid foundation, there's no automated onboarding to help developers discover framework-specific best practices and features.

Standard Hono Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow

Standard Flow
1

Hono is installed

2

Framework configured but setup progress not tracked

3

No guidance for framework-specific best practices

Skene Flow
1

Track Hono setup milestones (first page, API route, deployment)

2

Identify setup completion milestones

3

Send framework-specific guidance and best practices

4

Track developer progress and send advanced tips

How Skene Fixes This

The Skene setup for Hono tracks developer progress through framework setup and automatically provides guidance when milestones are reached, helping developers discover advanced features.

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 Framework Onboarding pattern for Hono.

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'
  }
});
