Onboarding copy
Principles
- One job per screen — do not explain the whole product at once.
- Lead with outcome: "Track invoices in one place" not "Welcome to our platform".
- Short sentences; active voice; no jargon on step 1.
Patterns
| Moment | Copy pattern |
| Welcome | Benefit + single CTA |
| Empty state | What's missing + why + CTA |
| Tooltip | ≤ 120 chars; optional "Learn more" link |
| Checklist onboarding | 3–5 steps max; celebrate completion |
Progressive disclosure
- Advanced features introduced after first success (aha moment).
- Skippable tours; remember skip in localStorage or profile.
Accessibility
- Tooltips keyboard-dismissible; don't block primary task.
Deliverable
Provide copy per component/screen:
- Headline
- Body (optional)
- Primary CTA label
- Secondary (skip) label
Avoid
- Lorem ipsum or "[Title here]".
- Blocking modal chains > 3 steps without skip.
- Identical copy on every empty state.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
