Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

Skene reads your codebase and produces a user journey for your product: the lifecycle stages a user moves through, the milestones inside each stage, and the code or database evidence that proves each milestone is real.

Quick Start

Install and launch the interactive terminal UI:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SkeneTechnologies/skene/main/tui/install.sh | bash
skene

The wizard walks you through provider selection, authentication, and analysis — no configuration needed upfront.

What It Does

Skene turns a repository into a single journey.yaml describing your product's user lifecycle, and renders it as an interactive diagram.

  • Agentic analysis — two parallel agents read your project: one walks the codebase, one walks your SQL schemas. They each propose candidate milestones, which are then merged and classified into a canonical seven-stage lifecycle.
  • Seven-stage user journey —

Questions

What is the Skene MCP server?

Product-Led Growth (PLG) analysis toolkit that detects tech stacks, plans growth loops and builds the loop iteratively.

What tools does Skene expose?

3 in total: 3 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is Skene safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.

What credentials does Skene need?

It reads SKENE_API_KEY and SKENE_UPSTREAM_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (b8c38f5c5ea1), read on 2026-10-07. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
