Onboarding Gaps Detector
Prerequisites
This skill needs the iGPT MCP at https://mcp.igpt.ai/.
If the MCP tools aren't available or return an auth error, tell the
user to install the iGPT plugin (/plugin marketplace add igptai/skills)
or add https://mcp.igpt.ai/ as a connector, then complete OAuth and say
"ready". Retry once after they confirm. Never invent tokens or OAuth URLs.

What This Skill Does
Scans onboarding-related email threads for new customers to find gaps —
missed steps, unanswered setup questions, delayed responses, blocked
integrations, confusion about next steps, and any pattern suggesting a
customer's onboarding is stalling or at risk.
Workflow
-
Before calling any tool, collect these values from the user. Offer the
defaults and let the user override them; do not invent values they did
not give.
- [time_range] — what window of email to scan. The user may give this
in any form ("last 6 months", "the last 90 days", "May 2024",
"since launch"). Default: the last 6 months. Keep the user's
natural phrasing for use in the ask input; convert to ISO dates
separately for the search call.
- [account_scope] — either "all" (default) or the name of a specific
new customer to focus on.
- [account_clause] — derived. When [account_scope] is not "all", set
to " for account [account_scope]". When [account_scope] is "all",
set to empty string.
-
Call search with:
- query: onboarding setup getting started welcome integration configure
training access credentials
(if [account_scope] is not "all", append the account name to the query)
- date_from: ISO start date derived from [time_range]
- date_to: ISO end date derived from [time_range] (or today if open-ended)
-
Call ask with:
- input: Review all onboarding-related email threads from [time_range][account_clause]. For each new customer being onboarded, identify every gap or issue in their onboarding journey: unanswered setup questions, delayed responses from our side, blocked integrations or access issues, steps that appear to have been skipped, confusion about what to do next, and any point where onboarding momentum stalled. Also look for any pattern across multiple customers suggesting a systemic onboarding weakness.

-
Present stalled and at_risk customers first. Lead with stalled count and
the most critical individual gap. Highlight systemic patterns prominently
as they indicate process improvements needed.
-
Ask: "Would you like me to draft a check-in email for any customers whose
onboarding has stalled?"
