How is a skill different from a system prompt?

Skills load on demand: the agent pulls one in when the task matches, so instructions don't burn context on every message. They're also versioned, forkable, and shareable.

Can I publish a skill?

Yes. skills can be published and installed; installed copies are snapshots, so someone deleting the source never breaks your agent.

Do skills work in the CLI and MCP?

Yes. the same skill tool is available to agents, the CLI, and MCP clients.

Agents

What you get

Install from the catalog

Write your own

A skill is a SKILL.md plus optional files: instructions, templates, scripts.

Fork to customize

Take any skill, make it yours. Your fork stays yours.

Attach per agent

Give each agent exactly the skills its job needs: nothing else.

Slash to invoke

Who it's for

Teams

Codify house style, review checklists, and runbooks once: every agent applies them the same way.
