Skills

A skill is a small package that teaches an employee to do one thing well: edit PDFs, build slide decks, test a web app, profile a CSV. Employees load an installed skill only when a task needs it, so they stay fast the rest of the time.

Finding skills

• The Marketplace in the sidebar has a Skills section with ready made skills in categories like Software, Documents, Data, Media, Web, and Text. Think “convert CSV to Excel,” “merge PDFs,” “turn a video into a GIF.”
• A curated library covers bigger tool kits, like a full PDF toolkit and Word, PowerPoint, and Excel document skills.
• GitHub. Any public repo that contains skills in the standard format can be installed by name or URL.

Installing one

1. 1

   From the Marketplace

   Open a skill card and hit Install, then pick which employee gets it. It's usable right away, including from the / menu in chat.

2. 2

   Or just ask in chat

   Employees can search for and install skills themselves. “Find a skill for editing PDFs and install it” works, and installing a repo with several skills installs them all.

How they're used

Once installed, a skill shows up in the employee's / menu and gets picked up automatically when a task matches it. Skills unpack onto the employee's computer, so file heavy skills, like document conversion, run there.
