Teach bots with skills

Write playbooks like your brand voice or a release checklist, and have the AI and bots follow them when they're needed.

A skill is a short written guide: your brand voice, a checklist, a playbook, a policy. The AI and your bots read it when it fits the conversation.

Create a skill

  1. Open your team's skills and choose Create skill.
  2. Give it a name and a line about when to use it. The clearer that line, the better the AI knows when to read it.
  3. Write the skill. Switch between editing, a split view and a preview as you go.
  4. Turn on Pinned to load it in every chat, or add trigger phrases like "write a caption" so it only loads when someone says them.

Start from a template, or choose Import from GitHub and paste a link to bring in skills someone has published.

Use a skill

  • Type $ and the skill's name in a chat. The AI follows it for the rest of that chat.
  • When you edit a bot, pick skills under Follows skills and that bot always follows them.
  • The Bot maker can write a new skill for you while it sets up a bot.

Share skills

Skills live in your team, in your organisation, or come from Aden. A team on an organisation's roster gets the organisation's skills too, unless they are private. Copy a shared skill into your own space to edit it.
