Agent skills
Agent skills are reusable packages of instructions and supporting resources that teach a compatible AI agent how to perform particular tasks. Formats and loading behaviour vary by platform.
Also known as:
In a sales team
A discovery-preparation skill provides a call-plan structure, evidence standards and worked examples for a defined sales motion.
Is an agent skill a separate AI agent?
A skill isn’t necessarily a separate agent, and it doesn’t automatically grant tool access. Installing a skill also doesn’t prove competence.
What to check in practice
Check when it’s invoked, which sources it uses and whether it works on representative deals.
