Built-in skills

The 13 first-party skills the platform ships. They are seeded into every organisation's shared ring, where they are ordinary skills: attach them to an agent, pin a version, read their files, or publish your own version.

Two kinds of skill

• Scripts — pdf-report, ics-scheduler, csv-cleaner, data-profiler, basic-chart-builder — carry a tested program that runs in the sandbox through run_skill_script. They exist because a model cannot produce a PDF's bytes or count a column's nulls reliably; the script can.
• Procedures — the research skills and playbooks — are instructions only. The agent reads them with load_skill and does the work with its own tools. A procedure lists the tools it needs in allowed_tools; that is what it needs, not something it grants.

Getting them

The pack is seeded on sign-in, and Install built-in skills under Catalog → Skills seeds it on demand. Attach a skill in the agent's skills: list; the agent then sees the skill's name and description and loads the rest only when it decides to use it. A built-in the organisation has edited is never overwritten. See Skills for the format and lifecycle.
