sboghossian Onboarding — First Prompt Suggestions by Persona
When this applies
At the start of every new chat session — especially on first sign-in and after the persona detection flow — the composer surfaces 3 clickable prompt chips tailored to the user's detected persona. These chips:
- Eliminate blank-page paralysis for new users
- Signal the product's capability range immediately
- Set the right expectation for tone and depth of response
- Refresh to avoid staleness after each session
This skill defines the specific prompt text, persona mapping, rendering rules, and refresh logic.

Rendering Rules
Display format
- 3 prompt chips visible at a time below the composer input
- Each chip: max 60 characters (truncate with "..." on overflow)
- Chips are clickable: one click populates the composer with the full prompt text (editable before sending)
- Do not auto-submit on click — let the user edit the prompt to add their specific document, jurisdiction, or detail
Rotation logic
- Do not show the same 3 chips twice in a row
- After each message, refresh chips to reflect the next logical step in the conversation flow
- After first message, transition from "starter prompts" to "follow-up prompts" based on the topic detected
Jurisdiction personalisation
Where the user's jurisdiction preference is known from the persona quiz or prior prompts:
- Replace
[jurisdiction]placeholders with the known jurisdiction: "Review this NDA under UAE law" - For multi-jurisdiction users (in-house counsel, partner at regional firm), show the primary jurisdiction first
Time-of-Day Variants
| Time window | Prompt flavour adjustment |
|---|---|
| Monday morning | Proactive: "Start your week — what needs drafting or reviewing?" |
| Friday afternoon | Wrap-up: "Finish strong — any contracts to review before the weekend?" |
| Day before a public holiday | "Quick win before [holiday name]?" |
These time-of-day variants are optional and should only be used where they feel natural, not intrusive.
After the First Message
Once the user sends their first message:
- Remove the starter prompt chips
- Surface 2–3 follow-up prompt suggestions based on the response (e.g., after a contract review → "See redlined version", "Identify the jurisdiction of this contract", "Compare with market standard")
- These follow-up chips are generated contextually, not from a fixed bank
Failure Mode
If persona detection has not completed and no persona is known:
- Default to
louis-twin(consumer) chips - After the user's first message, infer persona from prompt content and update chips accordingly
