Skills

Extend your agents with
powerful Skills.

Skills are modular capabilities that extend what your agent can do. Enable built-in features or create your own.

What are Skills?

Skills are specialized modules that give your agent new capabilities. Each skill includes prompting instructions that tell the agent when and how to use it, plus optional code that implements the skill's logic. Think of them as plugins for your AI—easy to enable, configure, and create.

Prompting

Natural activation

Each skill has prompting that describes when it should activate. Your agent reads these and decides automatically when to use each skill based on your request.

Code

Custom logic

Skills can include Python code that implements specialized functionality—API integrations, data processing, or any custom logic your workflow needs.

Toggle

Full control

Enable or disable skills per conversation. Keep your agent focused by only activating the skills you need for each task.
