What's Missing in Standard June Architecture
Without an infrastructure layer listening to your database events, you rely on manual cron jobs or messy webhooks to track when users reach their first value milestone. Most setups require custom code to detect activation.
Standard June Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow
User signs up via authentication
User record created in your database
No automatic trigger - manual follow-up required
Watch your database 'users' table for new signups using standard API
Detect when user completes first key action (e.g., performing their first search) using your database queries
Trigger activation email sequence via Resend with personalized onboarding
Track activation completion and send milestone emails

How Skene Fixes This
This Skene Prompt installs activation detection into June by watching your database tables for key user actions. When users complete their first value milestone like performing their first search, it triggers welcome sequences and feature discovery emails.
Implementation Comparison
Using Skene Infrastructure
Install via Prompt
@task: Initialize Skene.
@action: Analyze my local code, validating subscription via `npx skene login`, and generate `skene.config.ts` to implement the Analytics Activation pattern for June.Copy Skene Prompt for Cursor
