What's Missing in Standard Knock Architecture
Knock handles email delivery, but all users receive generic messages regardless of their engagement patterns because there's no segmentation system.
Standard Knock Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow
Standard Flow
1
User has access to Knock features
2
Features available but usage not monitored
3
No activation prompts for unused features
Skene Flow
1
Monitor Knock 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
This Skene configuration tracks Knock email engagement and automatically segments users by open rates. It triggers re-engagement campaigns for inactive users and celebrates high engagement.
Implementation Comparison
Using Skene Infrastructure
Auto-managed state. Installed via Prompt.
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 Email Engagement pattern for Knock.Copy Skene Prompt for Cursor
