Implementing User Onboarding with Logto

Logto handles authentication perfectly, but there's no system to detect when users complete their first value milestone after signing up.

What's Missing in Standard Logto Architecture

Logto handles authentication correctly, but there's no system to detect when users complete their first value milestone. You'd need to manually track user actions or set up custom event monitoring.

Standard Logto Flow vs Optimized Skene Flow

Standard Flow
1

User signs up via Logto

2

User record created but no activation tracking

3

No automatic trigger for activation milestones

Skene Flow
1

Watch Logto user events for signup and first actions

2

Detect when user completes first value milestone

3

Trigger activation email sequence with personalized onboarding

4

Track activation completion and send milestone emails

How Skene Fixes This

The Skene infrastructure for Logto tracks user progress after signup and automatically sends milestone emails when users complete key actions like creating their first project or inviting team members.

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 Activation Loop pattern for Logto.

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: 'activation',
  opinion: 'Detect when users complete their first key action and trigger personalized onboarding',
  steps: [
    {
      trigger: {
        type: 'database',
        table: 'users',
        event: 'insert'
      },
      condition: {
        type: 'query',
        query: `SELECT * FROM user_actions WHERE user_id = $1 AND action_type = 'first_project_created'`,
        timeout: '5m'
      },
      action: {
        type: 'email',
        provider: 'resend',
        template: 'activation_welcome',
        personalization: {
          name: '{{user.name}}',
          activationLink: '{{user.activation_link}}'
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  recovery: {
    retries: 3,
    backoff: 'exponential'
  }
});
