Your Skills Library
The Skills page is like a shared toolbox for your whole workshop — instead of opening each agent to see what it can do, you get one shelf that shows every skill you own, no matter which agent it lives on. From here you can jump in to edit a skill, copy it onto another agent, or clear out ones you no longer need.
Why it matters
Once you have a few agents, your skills end up scattered — a report builder on one agent, a data formatter on another, a summarizer on a third. To change or reuse any of them, you'd normally have to remember which agent it's on and open that agent first.
The Skills page gathers them all in one list. You can see everything you've built at a glance, spot duplicates, reuse a good skill across more agents, and tidy up the ones that are no longer pulling their weight — without hopping between agents.
Opening the Skills page
- Go to the Agent Control Panel.
- Open the Skills page (the account-wide skills view, separate from any single agent).

The page has two tabs:
| Tab | What it shows |
|---|---|
| My Skills | Every skill across all your agents, in one grid. Each card is labeled with the agent it belongs to. |
| Community | The same community skill library you can browse from inside an agent — view a skill's details or add it to one of your agents. |
My Skills — every skill, every agent
The My Skills tab lists each skill as a card. The card names the agent it lives on, the skill's name and description, and the tools it uses (shown as small chips with their icons).
Because a skill can be copied between agents, the same skill name can appear more than once — once for each agent that has a copy. Each card is tied to one specific agent, and copies are marked so you can tell an original from a copy.
What you can do with a skill
Each card has its own set of actions:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Edit in Dev Mode | Jumps into that agent's Developer Mode, ready to start changing the skill by chatting. |
| View details | Opens the skill's full details — description, documentation, the inputs it accepts, and its files. |
| Copy to another agent | Copies the skill onto one of your other agents (you can give the copy a new name first). |
| Delete | Removes the skill from that agent only. Other agents that have their own copy are unaffected. |
Edit in Dev Mode always opens the skill on the agent it belongs to. If two agents each have a copy of the same skill, editing one agent's copy never changes the other — they're independent (see copying a skill between agents).
Copying a skill to another agent
The Skills page is the quickest way to spread a good skill across more of your agents:
- Find the skill on the My Skills tab.
- Choose Copy to another agent.
- Pick the agent you want to copy it onto.
- Optionally, give the copy a new name — useful when the target agent already has a skill by that name, or when you just want a clearer label.
- Confirm.

The skill — and any new tools it needs — is copied onto the chosen agent right away.
A few things to keep in mind, the same as when you reuse a skill from inside an agent:
- The skill's tools come along too. Any tool the skill relies on is added to the target agent automatically.
- The 25-tool limit still applies. Each agent can have up to 25 tools (custom and database tools combined). Only new tools count — tools the target already has, and built-in tools, are free. If a copy would push the agent over the limit, you'll need to free up room first.
- Each copy is independent. The copy is a separate skill with its own files. Changing it later on one agent won't change it on another.
Community tab
The Community tab is the same shared skill library you can reach from inside an agent. Browse by category, open a skill to read its details, and add it to whichever agent you choose. For the full walkthrough, see installing a community skill.

Common mistakes
| Mistake | Why it's a problem | Better approach |
|---|---|---|
| Editing a copy and expecting every agent to update | Copies are independent — each agent keeps its own version | Edit the skill on each agent, or keep the shared logic on a single agent |
| Deleting a skill to remove it "everywhere" | Delete only removes it from the agent on that card | Delete the skill on each agent that has a copy |
| Copying a skill that pushes an agent over 25 tools | The copy is blocked until there's room | Remove an unused tool or skill from the target agent first, then copy |
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| The same skill shows up several times | That's expected — each copy on a different agent gets its own card. The label tells you which agent each one belongs to. |
| I deleted a skill but another agent still has it | Delete only affects the agent on that card. Remove it from each agent that has a copy. |
| Copy to another agent won't let me confirm | The copy would put the target agent over its 25-tool limit. Free up a tool or skill on that agent, then try again. |
| A skill name is already taken on the target agent | Give the copy a new name in the copy step before confirming. |
