> Save your recurring workflows as reusable Skills and invoke them with / in the Task input.



Skills let you save the workflows you use repeatedly — a sourcing brief format, an evaluation rubric, a reporting structure — and reuse them in any Task instead of describing the same requirements from scratch each time.

***

What are Skills [#what-are-skills]

A Skill is a set of saved instructions that tells Mira how to handle a recurring job. Skills are personal to your account, and come in two kinds:

* **Official Skills**: built and maintained by the Mira team. The first official Skill is **skill-creator**, which helps you create and edit your own Skills through conversation.
* **Personal Skills**: created by you, visible only to your account.

Invoke a Skill [#invoke-a-skill]

1. Type **/** in the Task input. A skill picker appears with your available Skills.
2. Pick a Skill, or keep typing to filter by name.
3. Describe the specifics of this run and send. The Skill name appears as a chip in your message, and Mira follows the Skill's instructions for the Task.

Mira can also apply a relevant Skill automatically: every Skill carries a short description, and when your request matches it, Mira routes to that Skill on its own.

Create a Skill [#create-a-skill]

Go to **Settings → Skills** and click **New Skill**. There are two ways:

Create via Chat [#create-via-chat]

Choose **Create via Chat**. Mira opens a new Task with the official **skill-creator** Skill, which turns the workflow you describe into a saved Skill through conversation.

Import File [#import-file]

Choose **Import File** and drop in a `SKILL.md`, `.skill`, or `.zip` file (up to 10 MB). A Skill package contains:

* `SKILL.md` — required. Frontmatter with the Skill ID (slug) and a short description of up to 80 characters — Mira uses it to decide when to auto-apply the Skill — followed by the instructions in markdown (up to 100 KB).
* Optional `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` folders for supporting files.

If the name collides with one of your existing Skills or an official Skill, rename it in the `SKILL.md` frontmatter and upload again.

Edit a Skill [#edit-a-skill]

* **Edit in Settings**: open the Skill in **Settings → Skills** and click **Edit** to change its description or instructions directly.
* **Edit through conversation**: from the Skill's detail page, hand the edit to **skill-creator** — Mira continues in a Task and applies the changes for you.

Manage your Skills [#manage-your-skills]

**Settings → Skills** lists everything in two tabs, **Official** and **Personal**.

{/* TODO: screenshot — Settings → Skills list page */}

For each Skill you can:

* **Enable or disable** it with the toggle. Disabled Skills aren't used.
* **Export** it as a `.skill` file.
* **Delete** it permanently. This removes `SKILL.md` and everything under `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/`, and can't be undone.

FAQ [#faq]

What official Skills are available? [#what-official-skills-are-available]

Currently **skill-creator**, for creating and editing personal Skills through conversation. New official Skills appear in the **Official** tab as the Mira team releases them.

What's inside a Skill? [#whats-inside-a-skill]

A `SKILL.md` file with the Skill's ID, description, and markdown instructions, plus optional `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` folders for supporting files.

Can I share a Skill with teammates? [#can-i-share-a-skill-with-teammates]

There's no built-in sharing yet. You can export a Skill as a `.skill` file, and anyone can import it from **Settings → Skills → New Skill → Import File**.
