# Skills

> Manage the skills your agents can load: turn them on or off, duplicate system skills, edit files, and make versions live.

Skills are ready-made workflows that Stella, digital workers, and the Human Twin load when a request matches a task. **Settings → Skills** is where you manage the catalog for your organization. You choose which skills are on, create your own, edit their files, and go back to an earlier version.

A skill runs for an agent only when both of these are true:

* It's attached to the agent. See [Configuring a Digital Worker](/digital-workers/configuring_a_worker#skills-tab), [Attaching skills to Stella](/stella-ai/advanced_features#attaching-skills-to-stella-admins), and [Human Twin skills](/admin/feature-flags#skills).
* It's turned on here.

## Who can manage skills

Admins and users with the **Builder** role can create, edit, turn off, duplicate, and archive skills, and make versions live. Other users who can open **Settings → Skills** see it read-only. See [User management and roles](/admin/user_management_and_roles_guide).

## The skills table

Go to **Settings → Skills**. The table has two sections:

* **System**: skills Statisfy publishes for every organization. You can turn them on or off for your organization, but you can't edit them.
* **Your organization**: skills your team created or duplicated. Only these can be edited and have versions.

Each row has a switch that turns the skill on or off for your organization, and a **⋮** menu:

| Section | Menu actions |
| - | - |
| **System** | **Duplicate to my organization** |
| **Your organization** | **Versions**, **Duplicate**, **Archive** |

Use the **Enabled** filter to show skills that are **On**, **Off**, or **Archived**. Archived skills are hidden by default. A line under the tables shows how many there are and turns the filter on. Click **Wrap text** to show full descriptions.

### Turning a skill off

When you turn a skill off, the dialog names the agents that stop loading it. The skill stays attached to those agents, so they pick it up again when you turn it back on. For a System skill, Statisfy also asks **Why is this being turned off?** and records your reason.

### Duplicating a skill

To customize a System skill, choose **Duplicate to my organization** from its **⋮** menu or from its panel. The copy appears under **Your organization**, where you can edit it and its files. Use **Duplicate** on one of your own skills to start a variant without changing the original.

### Archiving a skill

**Archive** permanently retires one of your organization's skills. It can't be undone. The skill stops loading for every agent and is removed from every agent that has it attached. The dialog names those agents before you confirm. An archived skill is read-only and shows only its **Overview** tab.

## Creating a skill

1. In **Settings → Skills**, click **New skill**.
2. Enter a **Name**, **Description**, and **Instructions**. Optionally turn on **Run in a sub-agent** and add a **Parent addendum**.
3. Click **Create**. The skill appears under **Your organization**.

You can also start from an agent. In the agent's **Add Skills** picker, click **Create a new skill**. Statisfy opens **Settings → Skills** in a new tab so you don't lose unsaved edits on the agent's form. When you create the skill there, Statisfy ticks it in the picker.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Digital workers can't run sub-agents. If you plan to attach the skill to a digital worker, leave **Run in a sub-agent** off.

## The skill panel

Click a skill to open its panel. The panel has four tabs.

### Overview

Shows the skill's description, runner, parent addendum, and instructions. For your organization's skills, click **Edit** to change them. Saving creates a new version and makes it live.

### Files

Shows the skill's attached files as a file tree, with a preview of the selected file. For your organization's skills, click **Edit files** to change them. From the tree's **⋯** menu, or a folder's menu, you can:

* **New file** and **New folder**
* **Upload files** or **Upload a folder**. You can also drag files onto the tree.
* **Rename**, **Move to…**, or **Delete** a file, and **Rename or move folder** or **Delete folder**
* **Replace all from .zip** to swap every file for the contents of a zip archive

Click **Save** to apply your changes. Saving creates a new version and makes it live. These limits apply:

| Limit | Value |
| - | - |
| Size of one file | 2 MB |
| All files together | 10 MB |
| Number of attached files | 25 |
| Size of an uploaded .zip | 10 MB |

### Versions

Lists every saved version of one of your organization's skills, with the live one marked **Live**.

* Click **Compare** on any version to see what differs from the live version, including instructions, settings, and files.
* Click **Make live** to make that version the live one. The dialog shows what changes before you confirm. To undo a change, make the earlier version live. To go forward again, make the newer version live.

### Used by

Lists the agents the skill is attached to, such as Stella, the Human Twin, and individual digital workers. Use it to check the impact before you edit, turn off, or archive a skill.
