Skills
UserSkills (menu item Skills, route /skills) are reusable instructions that teach the AI specialized abilities — from document templates to domain-specific workflows. This page is the catalog: here you see which Skills are available and what they do.
Interface
Section titled “Interface”On the left you browse the Skill tree; on the right the name, description and full instructions of the selected Skill appear. An origin chip shows whether a Skill comes from the shared (administratively configured) catalog or from a local source.
What the Skills page can do
Section titled “What the Skills page can do”- Browse the catalog — all available Skills, grouped by origin, with a full instruction view.
