Designing first-run product onboarding wizards that get users to the ah-ha moment without overwhelming them. Step architecture, progressive disclosure, escape hatches, completion incentives, drop-off measurement. Honest about tutorial-overload (dump everything upfront), skip-friendly-empty (skipped onboarding leads to abandoned product), and earned-progressive-disclosure (right things at the right moments) patterns. Triggers on onboarding wizard, product onboarding, first-run experience…

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

# Onboarding Wizard Design

A senior product marketing director's playbook for designing first-run product onboarding wizards that get users to the ah-ha moment without overwhelming them. Step architecture, progressive disclosure, escape hatches, completion incentives, drop-off measurement. The discipline of building an onboarding sequence the user actually completes.

Most product onboarding wizards fail in one of two ways. They cram every feature into a 12-step intro the user has not earned the patience for. Or they offer a "skip onboarding" button so prominent that users skip into an empty product with no context, and then churn the next day because they never found the value. The activation rate is the metric that matters, and most wizards are optimizing for the wrong thing.

The wizards that work do something different. Each step earns the user one step closer to value. The wizard surfaces the right thing at the right moment, not everything upfront. Skip exists but is balanced against staying engaged. The user reaches the ah-ha moment with a sense that the product respected their time.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rampstackco/claude-skills/onboarding-wizard-design@sha256:381fcce8e470a997

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260507.ac2b078, 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.
