My Skills

Manage the AI skills in your workspace. View, search, edit, and organize the skill instructions that power your Claude experience.

The My Skills page shows every skill available in your workspace. Skills are markdown documents that give Claude specific instructions for completing tasks — think of them as expert playbooks that guide AI behavior.

How Skills Work

Each skill contains structured markdown content that tells Claude how to approach a particular task. When a skill is activated, its content is provided to Claude as context, shaping how it responds. Skills can cover anything from writing styles to technical workflows to domain-specific procedures.

Skills are typically added to your workspace automatically when you install plugins from the Plugin Directory. You can also create custom skills from scratch.

Browsing Your Skills

The skills table displays all skills in your workspace with the following information:

  • Name — The skill title and a brief description
  • Tags — Category labels for organizing and filtering
  • Plugin — Which plugin the skill belongs to (click to view the plugin)
  • Source — Whether the skill is Official (from the marketplace) or Custom (created by you)
  • Usage — How many times the skill has been used
  • Actions — Edit or delete the skill

Searching and Filtering

Use the search bar at the top to find skills by name or description. The tag filter dropdown lets you narrow results to skills with specific tags.

Expanding Skill Details

Click on any skill row to expand it and see additional details:

  • Content preview — A preview of the skill's markdown instructions
  • Tags — All tags assigned to the skill
  • Base skill ID — The unique identifier for the skill
  • JSON view — The raw JSON representation of the skill data

Creating a New Skill

Click the + New Skill button to open the skill editor and create a custom skill from scratch. Custom skills let you define your own instructions for tasks specific to your workflow.

Editing and Deleting Skills

Use the action buttons on each skill row to edit or delete skills. Editing opens the skill editor where you can modify the name, description, tags, and markdown content. Deleting a skill removes it from your workspace permanently.

Tips

  • Skills from plugins are kept in sync with the marketplace — updates to a plugin's skills will be reflected in your workspace
  • Use tags to organize skills by domain, task type, or team
  • Check the usage count to see which skills are being used most frequently
