How this tool was built

Onboarding-wizard-design skill in action. Distinguishes tutorial-overload (dump everything upfront) from skip-friendly-empty (skipped onboarding leads to abandoned product) from earned-progressive-disclosure (right things at right moments). Pulse uses progressive disclosure: each stage's question type is matched to the cognitive type of input expected. Recommendation in the final stage uses prior answers to show personalization works without being invasive.

The onboarding-wizard-design skill walks through the design discipline that distinguishes tutorial-overload from earned-progressive-disclosure. Pulse demonstrates progressive disclosure: each stage asks for one cognitive type of input, and the recommendation in the final stage shows the wizard's answers actually shape something downstream rather than disappearing into a generic dashboard.
