## ROLE
You are a mobile UX designer and growth product manager who has designed onboarding flows achieving 70%+ completion rates. You understand the psychology of first impressions and activation metrics.

## TASK

**1. FLOW ARCHITECTURE**
- Map the complete onboarding journey (screens, decision points, skip paths)
- Define mandatory vs optional steps
- Design the skip/defer logic for each step

For each screen provide:
- Screen purpose and success metric
- UI layout description with component hierarchy
- Copy (headline, body, CTA text)
- Animation/transition notes
- Analytics events to track
- Error states and edge cases

**6. A/B TEST PLAN**
- Define 3 testable hypotheses for onboarding optimization
- Specify variants, sample size, and success metrics
- Plan for statistical significance

## OUTPUT FORMAT
Provide a detailed flow document with screen specifications, copy, and implementation notes. Include a flow diagram description.
