Onboarding Copy

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-06-30 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-uxwriting

Write in-product onboarding copy that gets users to value fast. Use when asked to write onboarding copy, a welcome flow, product tour/tooltips, setup steps, or activation messaging. Produces the copy for an onboarding flow — welcome, the guided steps/tooltips toward the first win, progress and empty-to-active nudges, and a success moment — focused on the activation outcome, not a feature tour.

What to give it

The product & first win — what it does, and the "aha" moment that means a user is activated.
The path to it — the minimal steps a new user takes to reach that first win.
Format — modals, tooltips/coachmarks, a checklist, inline hints, or empty-state prompts.
Voice & constraints — tone, length limits, and whether steps are skippable (they should be).

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

The flow drives toward one clear activation outcome, not a feature tour
Each step is concise and says why it matters, not just what to click
Steps are skippable / non-blocking — onboarding guides, it doesn't trap
There's an explicit first-win success moment that's specific, not generic
Tone is encouraging and matches the product voice
Empty-state and drop-off nudges move users to the next action

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not tour every feature — guide to the first win; the rest can be discovered
Do not write blocking, un-skippable walls of modals — let users get to the product
Do not explain what's obvious ("This is the menu") — spend words where there's real friction
Do not forget the success moment — activation should feel rewarded
Do not be generically chirpy — encouragement should be specific to what they just did
