Reusable instruction blocks you can attach to sub-agents
Overview
Skills are reusable instruction blocks that you can attach to multiple sub-agents. They help you keep shared rules, tone, and formatting consistent across the agent graph while still allowing each sub-agent to focus on its own role.
Create a skill
- Go to Skills in the left sidebar.
- Click Create skill.
- Fill in the required fields and save.
Fields
- Name: A short identifier.
- Description: When to use this skill.
- Content: The Markdown body, write whatever helps agents perform the task effectively.
- Metadata (JSON): Additional properties not defined by the Agent Skills spec.
Attach skills to sub-agents
Open an agent in the Visual Builder, select a sub-agent node, and use the Skills picker to attach one or more skills. You can drag to reorder them and control their priority.
Use Always loaded to include a skill in every prompt. It's off by default so skills load on demand unless you enable it.
On-demand skills appear as an outline in the system prompt and can be loaded when needed via the built-in
load_skill tool.
