Skills

Teach it once, and it does it your way

A skill is how a kind of task is done: the steps, what the result looks like and the rules to follow. Your agent picks the right one when it fits, or you choose one by name.

What it does

  • Used when it fits

    When what you ask matches a skill, your agent uses it and the chat shows which one. Questions and small talk need no skill.

  • Ready-made skills

    Research reports, a competitor weekly, newsletter issues, paper and earnings quick reads, meeting notes to actions, rewrites for social media.

  • Your own way of working

    Describe how you want something done, or say “save how we just did this as a skill”. Next time it does it that way.
