# Skills

> Save a set of instructions the agent can follow whenever a task comes up again.

A skill is a saved set of instructions for the agent — a repeatable task or a house style. "How we write case studies", "our weekly report format", "the checklist for onboarding a new client". Once a skill exists, anyone in the workspace can benefit from it: the agent loads it when it's relevant, or when you ask for it by name.

## Creating a skill

A skill is an entry like any other. Create one from the **New entry** picker and choose the skill type. The body is plain instructions written in English — describe the task, the steps, the tone, whatever the agent should follow. No special format required.

For example, a "Weekly report" skill might describe which folders to pull updates from, the section order, and how long each section should be.

## Using a skill

You don't have to do anything special. When a request matches a skill — "write up the Meridian project as a case study" — the agent loads the matching skill and follows it. You can also name it directly: "use the weekly report skill".

<Tip>
  Just finished walking the agent through something you'll want again? Ask it to write the skill for you: "save what we just did as a skill". The agent turns the steps you worked out together into a reusable skill entry, and you can edit it afterward like any other entry.
