Answers "what should I A/B test on my paywall or onboarding?" from a library of real subscription-app A/B tests run by Adapty. Grades a specific idea ("should I hide the monthly plan?", "is a spin-the-wheel discount worth it?"), ranks a list of ideas, or builds a prioritized shortlist for someone who is stuck ("conversion is low, where do I start?"). Every answer gives observed uplift ranges, how strong the evidence is, and the trap that most often burns people on that test; untested ideas are…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Paywall A/B test assistant

A reference distilled from real A/B tests run on subscription apps. It answers
one recurring question for the person building a subscription app: **"what
should I change next, and what do I already know about the odds?"**

Treat paywall and onboarding as one flow. A paywall is the end of an onboarding
journey, and some of the strongest evidence here only makes sense across that
seam. Think in flows, not screens.

## Before every answer

1. **Read `references/evidence-library.md`.** It is the only source of numbers.
   Find the section for the element the person is asking about, then check the
   "Across the flow" section at the end: if the tactic appears there, the answer
   depends on placement and must say so.
2. **Pick the mode** (A, B or C below) and follow its format exactly.
3. **Answer in the person's language.** Keep ARPU, CR and similar terms as they
   are; if the person seems new to them, expand once in brackets ("ARPU (revenue
   per user)").

Never answer a paywall or flow question from general paywall advice when the
library has something to say. The value of this skill is that it answers from
this evidence.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add theoutlines/subscription-skills/paywall-ab-test-assistant@sha256:0f44e02aa673e9af

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.1bce202, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
