Discovering Skills

Find the right skill for any task — from your personal library or the public marketplace.

Two Places to Look

Skills live in two places. Your agent knows the difference and searches the right one based on what you ask.

Your Drive

Skills you own, skills from your teams, and skills shared with you. These are ready to use immediately.

"What skills do I have?"
"Do I have anything for PDFs?"

The Marketplace

Hundreds of public skills and the GitHub skill catalog. Browse, import to your drive, and start using immediately.

"Find me a skill for data visualization"
"What's available for working with spreadsheets?"

Real-World Examples

Just describe what you need. Your agent handles the search, import, and execution.

Find a skill you already have

You: "I need to merge some PDF files. Do I have a skill for that?"

Agent: searches your drive → finds "PDF Manipulation" with 3 scripts → ready to run

Discover something new from the marketplace

You: "I need to analyze some survey data. Are there any skills for that on the marketplace?"

Agent: searches marketplace → finds "Data Analyzer" and "Survey Insights" → imports your choice → runs it on your data

See your full library

You: "Show me everything in my skill library."

Agent: lists all skills → shows your personal skills, team skills, and shared skills in one view

Import and use in one step

You: "Find a skill for creating presentations and use it to make a slide deck from this outline."

Agent: searches marketplace → imports skill → runs it → presentation created

Two Types of Skills

Skills come in two flavors. Your agent handles both automatically — you don't need to think about which type a skill is.

Script-Based Skills

Run code to get things done — convert files, analyze data, generate reports, process images.

Your agent runs the script in a cloud sandbox (or locally) and returns the results.

Template-Based Skills

Provide knowledge and guidelines — writing styles, brand guides, code patterns, workflows.

Your agent reads the skill's documentation and applies it to your task.

Skills from multiple sources

Your library automatically includes skills from your personal drive, team drives you belong to, and skills shared directly with you. All three sources are combined — no extra configuration needed.

Importing costs credits

Importing a skill from the marketplace charges credits based on the skill's size. Skills already in your drive are free to use anytime.
