Skills: reusable instructions for your AI agents
Package a procedure once and let any AI agent load it when a conversation needs it.
Updated
Every team has procedures it wants followed the same way every time. Skills package those instructions, and the tools they need, so any agent can use them.
What's new#
- Skills in the sidebar: create, edit, search and enable your workspace's skills.
- A skill is a name, a description, Markdown instructions and the tools it brings.
- Two loading modes. On demand skills are listed for the agent, which loads the instructions only when they're relevant. Always in context skills are added to every turn.
- Attach skills to an agent from the new Skills field on the agent, or pick skills for a single conversation in AI Chat.
- Quality review. When it's turned on for your workspace, each skill gets an automatic review with suggestions to make it clearer.
- Built-in checks. A skill needs real instructions, not a one-liner, before it can be saved.
The description matters most: it's how the agent decides a skill is relevant, so say what it covers and when to use it.
