Skills ​

Skills are markdown skill files attached to an agent — scoped instructions, allowed tools, and optional media. Manage them under Agent settings → Knowledge → Skills.

Product Skills ≠ Warps. Warps are executable workflows. Skills teach the agent how to behave and which tools to prefer. You often use both.

Overview ​

  • Create / edit / delete skill documents in Knowledge
  • Scope and allowed-tools metadata guide the agent
  • MCP: list_skills, create_skill, update_skill, delete_skill
  • Public skill pages may appear on the store host — Public surfaces

In the app ​

  1. Agent settings → Knowledge → Skills
  2. Create a skill (title + markdown body + options)
  3. Update when procedures change
  4. Delete unused skills

To give an agent a new action, create a Warp and optionally a Shortcut. To teach policy and tool choice, add a Skill.
