What are Agent Skills

Skill = turning one successful run into a reusable standard your agent can follow.
A Skill defines how a class of tasks should be done—what inputs to use, what steps to follow, and how to structure the output. Skills are especially useful when:

• You repeat similar tasks and want consistent results
• Your deliverable must follow a strict format, checklist, or spec
• You want a pipeline (multi-step flow) rather than a one-off output

A Skill typically has three parts:

• Workflow: repeatable steps and decision rules for a specific type of work
• Output format: a consistent deliverable structure (sections, fields, templates)
• Tools & rules (optional): tools, constraints, and checks that keep the workflow on track (e.g., must cite sources, must output a table, must follow an approval gate)

A Skill is not “a longer prompt.” More precisely, it’s a reusable workflow + a stable output structure: once you capture a great run, you can reliably reproduce it for similar tasks.

​

Getting started with Skills

You can manage Skills from the Skills panel. Open it to view your added Skills, browse official Skills, and add new ones to your workspace.

30-second quick start (fastest way to get your first win)

1. Explore skills panel → pick a Skill → click Try or Add
2. Go back to your chat/task → upload a file or paste a link
3. Say: “Use <Skill Name> to process this, and output in [your required structure].”

Example:
“Use PDF-Processing to extract tables from this PDF, and output: Summary / Key data / Risks / Action items.”

​

Adding Skills

1) Create via chat (Create a Skill by describing what you want—two common ways) A) Describe the Skill directly (fastest)
Tell AnyGen what the Skill should do, what inputs you’ll provide, and what the output should look like. AnyGen will generate a Skill draft and guide you through refining it.
Entry: in chat, say “I want to create a Skill…” (or Skills panel → Add → Create via chat)
Best for: turning a clear need or workflow into a usable Skill without writing specs from scratch. B) Package a successful run into a Skill (build as you go)
If you’ve completed a task and you’re happy with the result, ask AnyGen to package the current workflow into a Skill so you can reuse it next time.
Entry: during a task, ask AnyGen to save/package the current workflow as a Skill
Best for: high-frequency SOPs, fixed-format deliverables, review templates, and repeatable “good runs.” 2) Add from Explore Skills Browse a curated collection of ready-to-use Skills and add them to your workspace in one click. Each Skill includes a description, so you can quickly see what it does before using it. Path: Explore skills → choose a Skill → click Try or Add Best for:

• Getting value quickly
• Exploring officially curated, high-quality Skills
• Learning how different Skills are structured and used

💡 Tip: Use the category tabs (e.g., Recommended, Converters, Marketers, Students) to quickly find Skills relevant to your needs. 3) Upload skill (import a Skill) If you already have a Skill file, you can import it directly.
Path: Skills panel → Add (dropdown) → Upload skill
Supported formats: .zip / .md / .skill
Best for: importing a Skill for direct use or iteration.
Tip: if a Skill comes from someone else (especially if it includes scripts or external resources), review what it does and its boundaries before using it in production. 4) Write skill instructions Write a Skill by hand for maximum precision and control.
Path: Skills panel → Add (dropdown) → Write skill instructions
Best for: defining exactly how a Skill should be used and what the output should look like.

Using a Skill in a task

Once a Skill is added or created, you can use it in two common ways:

• Natural-language request (default): describe your goal and provide inputs; enabled Skills will be used when relevant.
• Explicit Skill call (more predictable): write Use <Skill Name> ... when you want a predictable workflow or a fixed output structure.

Use cases

​

1) Excel-Analysis (spreadsheet insights)

• Use when: you have an XLSX and want to quickly understand growth drivers, anomalies, and next steps
• Pain solved: hard to turn numbers into conclusions; slicing/pivots take time; outputs are inconsistent
• Typical output: key insights + anomaly explanations + suggested breakdowns (optionally with charts/dashboard recommendations)

One-line prompt: “Use Excel-Analysis to analyze this XLSX and deliver: 5 key insights / Top anomalies / 3 recommendations in a fixed structure.”

​

2) PDF-Processing (PDF extraction and structuring)

• Use when: you have a PDF report/contract/proposal/research doc and want to turn it into usable information fast
• Pain solved: tables are hard to copy, information is scattered, manual organizing is slow, key points are easy to miss
• Typical output: structured extraction (tables + text) + key points + conclusions + action items

One-line prompt: “Use PDF-Processing to extract all tables and key points from this PDF, and output: Summary / Key data / Risks / Action items.”

​

3) document-converter-suite (format conversion)

• Use when: you need to convert between PDF/DOCX/PPTX/XLSX/MD/HTML for editing, reuse, or publishing
• Pain solved: inconsistent formats increase collaboration cost; copy-paste is messy; repeated manual conversions before delivery
• Typical output: cleaner, editable artifacts (e.g., PDF→DOCX, PPTX→Markdown outline)

One-line prompt: “Use document-converter-suite to convert this PPTX into a Markdown outline: Slide title / Bullets / Speaker notes.”
