Use Skills

Build a small, useful library

A Skill packages instructions and supporting resources for a particular job. Use Discovery to find supported local Agent skills, and Library to organize the Skills you bring into Orylo.

Inspect a Skill’s instructions and origin before using it. A Skill is not a security boundary and does not grant permissions or tools by itself.

Use a Skill in a request

1. 1

   Assign reusable Skills

   Choose the Skills an Assistant should have available in its settings. Keep the set relevant to that Assistant’s role.

2. 2

   Select a Skill explicitly

   Use @ in Composer or the available Skill picker to reference a Skill in your request. The reference stays at the point where you inserted it.

3. 3

   Review before sending

   Check the request and references. If the Skill needs a tool or file, make sure the chosen Assistant actually has access.

Create and improve Skills

You can work with a configured Agent to create or refine a Skill for a repeated task. Review the resulting instructions and resources before adding or assigning it.

Changing a Skill does not retroactively change replies already generated. Test the revised Skill with a small request and inspect the result.
