How to copy an onboarding flow you like, step by step

The problem. Onboarding is the part of a product people copy most and describe worst. You remember that it felt short, that each screen asked one thing, that the progress bar moved. Ask an agent to make yours "like Duolingo's" and it guesses at all of that.

What it needs is the flow itself: how many screens, what each one asks, how answers are laid out, where the button sits. That is what recording a flow saves.

Record it as you click through

1. Open the flow. Go to the first screen of the onboarding you like, in Chrome, with the plagio extension installed.
2. Start recording. Start a flow recording from the extension. There is nothing to select: each screen is captured whole.
3. Click through as a user would. Answer each question and press continue. Every new screen is saved as a step, in order.
4. Stop and name it. Stop when you reach the end. The flow lands in your library under the name you give it.

Duolingo's onboarding is a good one to learn from, and it runs before you create an account. It asks why you're learning, how much you know, your daily goal and where to start, one question per screen with a progress bar across the top.

Then ask your agent for it

In Claude Code, Cursor or any agent with plagio connected, ask for the flow by name:

Use my saved "Duolingo onboarding" and build the same steps into my signup,
with my own questions. Keep my brand.

The agent reads the flow with get_saved_capture, step by step, and builds the structure: one question per screen, the same kind of answers, the progress indicator, the button where it was. The words and the brand stay yours.

What stays private

Whatever you type while recording, and whatever identifies you, is left out of what's saved. That matters for flows behind a login, where the screens hold your own account.
