Skill configuration

Skills define the methods, steps, and rules an agent uses for specific tasks. You can bind existing skills to an agent or create custom skills for your business needs.

What skills provide

  • Consistent task processing: Define clear methods and output requirements for specific tasks.

  • Expanded capabilities: Let agents handle specialized tasks such as document review, content generation, and data analysis.

  • Reusable business methods: Allow a skill to be bound to multiple agents.

Knowledge bases provide business information and supporting material. Skills define how to handle tasks, and tools query external systems or perform actions.

Skill types

  • Built-in skills: Provided by the platform and available for direct binding to an agent.

  • Custom skills: Created by users for specific business requirements and available for editing, use, and management.

Bind an existing skill

  1. Open the target agent’s configuration page.

  2. In the Skills section, select Add.

  3. Select the skill to use.

  4. Confirm the selection and save the configuration.

When creating an agent, the system may recommend relevant skills based on the agent plan. Confirm a recommendation to bind it.

Create a custom skill

  1. Open the skill configuration area and select New skill.

  2. Enter a skill name and summary.

  3. Write the execution instructions.

  4. Add tags as needed.

  5. Save the skill and bind it to the target agent.

A custom skill contains:

  • Name: Identifies the skill and should clearly describe the task it handles.

  • Summary: Describes when the skill applies and helps the agent decide when to use it.

  • Execution instructions: Define the processing steps, decision rules, and output requirements.

  • Tags: Support skill classification and discovery.

You can also import a compatible skill file or use AI Polish to improve the skill content.

Manage skills

In the skill configuration area, you can view an agent’s bound skills, add skills, or remove bindings that are no longer needed. You can also update custom skill settings or delete custom skills that are no longer used.

Unbinding does not delete the skill or affect other agents that use it. Changes to a custom skill apply to agents that use the skill.
