Skills
The first time it does a job, the agent finds its way by trying. When the same job comes up a second or third time, starting from scratch is waste. Skill distillation solves this by extracting a repeatable playbook from successful tasks.
What is a skill?
A skill is a distilled procedure that captures how the agent runs a specific kind of job: which tools, in what order, watching out for what. When a successful task completes, the agent can turn that experience into a skill.
What it gives you
- Consistency: the same job runs at the same quality every time.
- Speed & accuracy: less trial and error; the agent gets straight to work.
- Accumulation: your team's way of working settles into the agent over time.
Visibility & management
Distilled skills are visible in the panel — you see what was learned, and can pause or delete them if needed. Skills are part of the memory family and subject to the same consent + GDPR controls. See Memory system.
Skills differ from tools: a tool gives one capability (send email); a skill remembers how to do a whole job (prepare the weekly report).
