Instead of requiring every agent to carry all supporting instructions and domain knowledge at all times, Skills create a reusable library of focused expertise that agents can discover and apply dynamically. This helps agents stay focused while still giving them access to the deeper context needed for specific scenarios. Skills can be created and managed centrally, reused across multiple agents, versioned and published independently, and optionally configured to load by default for specific agents. This provides teams with a scalable way to continuously improve agent behavior and investigation quality without overloading every interaction with unnecessary context. *** ## Adding New Skills In the Skills tab, in the top-right corner, click " New Skill" button. * **Name** – The name of the skill * **Description** – A description of the skill’s functionality and purpose. * **Content**- Add the instructions, knowledge, guidelines, or other contextual information that should be provided to an agent when the skill is used. * **Tags**- Assign tags to the skill Once created, the skill is added to the Skills library, where you can view and manage it and assign them to [agents](/docs/agent-builder/building-the-agent#skills).
