一种标准化的方式，为人工智能代理提供新的能力和专业知识。

什么是特工技能？

Agent Skills 是一种轻量级、开放的格式，用于扩展 AI 代理能力，结合专业知识和工作流程。

技能的核心是一个包含SKILL.md文件的文件夹。该文件至少包含元数据（name和description）以及指示代理执行特定任务的指令。技能还可以捆绑脚本、参考资料、模板及其他资源。

为什么是技能探员？

代理能力日益增强，但通常缺乏可靠完成实际工作的上下文。技能通过将程序知识和公司、团队和用户特定的上下文打包到可携带的版本控制文件夹中，供代理按需加载，从而解决这个问题。这为代理提供了：

• 领域专长：捕捉专业知识——从法律审查流程到数据分析流程再到演示格式——作为可重用的说明和资源。
• 可重复的工作流程：将多步骤任务转变为一致且可审计的流程。
• 跨产品重用：构建一次技能，并在任何技能兼容代理间使用。

Agent Skills

A standardized way to give AI agents new capabilities and expertise.

What are Agent Skills?

Agent Skills are a lightweight, open format for extending AI agent capabilities with specialized knowledge and workflows.

At its core, a skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file. This file includes metadata (name and description, at minimum) and instructions that tell an agent how to perform a specific task. Skills can also bundle scripts, reference materials, templates, and other resources.

my-skill/
├── SKILL.md          # Required: metadata + instructions
├── scripts/          # Optional: executable code
├── references/       # Optional: documentation
├── assets/           # Optional: templates, resources
└── ...               # Any additional files or directories

Why Agent Skills?

Agents are increasingly capable, but often don’t have the context they need to do real work reliably. Skills solve this by packaging procedural knowledge and company-, team-, and user-specific context into portable, version-controlled folders that agents load on demand. This gives agents:

• Domain expertise: Capture specialized knowledge — from legal review processes to data analysis pipelines to presentation formatting — as reusable instructions and resources.
• Repeatable workflows: Turn multi-step tasks into consistent, auditable procedures.
• Cross-product reuse: Build a skill once and use it across any skills-compatible agent.

How do Agent Skills work?

Agents load skills through progressive disclosure, in three stages:

1. Discovery: At startup, agents load only the name and description of each available skill, just enough to know when it might be relevant.

2. Activation: When a task matches a skill’s description, the agent reads the full SKILL.md instructions into context.

3. Execution: The agent follows the instructions, optionally executing bundled code or loading referenced files as needed.

Full instructions load only when a task calls for them, so agents can keep many skills on hand with only a small context footprint.
