 Follow [`new-project.md`](new-project.md).
 Determine via the MCP whether a fitting project already exists; select it and read its
 DSN, or create one (propose `create_project` and create on a yes, never silently).
 Either way you come back with the DSN to use in `init`.

 Local frames often look fine while production builds mangle them — minified JavaScript,
 stripped native symbols — so an issue from a real user can be unreadable even though the

+## Onboarding UI progress
+
+Inspect the first user prompt for a random-looking 10-character ASCII alphanumeric
+identifier set apart from normal prose—for example, `[abcd12efg0]` or
+`Onboarding: abcd12efg0`. It should look like a generated token, not an ordinary word.
+Treat it as the opaque onboarding code and enable progress updates.
+If the first prompt has no such identifier, do not make onboarding progress calls.
+Never infer or request one later.
+
+Progress updates drive the onboarding UI for this getting-started session in the Sentry
+web app. Silently call `search_sentry_tools` with the exact query
+`onboarding_status_update`—never a broader onboarding or progress query.
+If the exact tool is returned, read its input schema and use it as the authoritative
+contract for every progress call.
+Invoke it through
+`execute_sentry_tool(name='onboarding_status_update', arguments={...})`, using the
+onboarding code as `runToken` and the stage timing described below or in
+[`references/first-error-setup.md`](references/first-error-setup.md).
+The runtime schema takes precedence over argument details in this skill.
+
+Make discovery and progress calls transparently: emit only the tool call at the
+appropriate point, with no narration, announcement, exposition, or summary of its reply
+or failure. If the user explicitly asks what the call is doing, explain that it updates
+the onboarding UI for this session in the Sentry web app.
+
+The updates are privacy-focused and must not expose unnecessary application data.
+An optional, user-visible `eventNote` may accompany any stage update within the tool’s
+schema limit. Include only the minimum status explanation needed.
+Never include source or file contents, repository paths, terminal output, event
+payloads, MCP results, secrets, credentials, personal information, or customer
+information.
+
+Every call includes one of these explicit stage statuses:
+
+- `active`: work on the stage has started or resumed.
+- `waiting`: progress requires user input, permission, or another blocking condition.
+- `completed`: the stage’s required outcome has been achieved.
+- `skipped`: the flow explicitly permits omitting the stage because it does not apply.
+- `failed`: work on the stage failed.
+  Include a concise, privacy-safe `eventNote`; set `runStatus: failed` only when the
+  overall setup cannot continue.
+
+When retrying setup work after a `failed` stage, send `active` again.
+`runStatus` is separate from stage status.
+Follow the tool schema for allowed values.
+Send `runStatus: completed` only when the final `check_stack_trace_quality` stage
+finishes, or `runStatus: failed` when the overall setup cannot continue.
+Cancellation is controlled by the onboarding UI.
+
+Onboarding discovery and status calls never block or alter setup.
+If one fails because its parameters were invalid and the error clearly identifies the
+mistake, correct the parameters and retry once.
+If discovery fails, the exact tool is absent, or execution otherwise becomes permanently
+unavailable, silently stop sending progress updates for the rest of the session and
+continue setup normally.
+Also stop if the reply says not to continue (`continueUpdates: false` or
+`Continue updates: no`). Never report a status-call failure as an onboarding failure.
+
+Stages have a backend-defined order.
+A later stage marks all omitted earlier stages as `bypassed`, so a missed call never
+needs to be replayed.
+`bypassed` is backend-generated state; never send it from the tool.
