# Prompt Agent skills

Part of the SocialArt.ai documentation. Index: https://socialart.ai/llms.txt · Open Tools: https://socialart.ai/tools

Skills are reusable instruction packs for the Prompt Agent. Activate one and the agent becomes a specialist that asks the right questions and writes your prompt in that style: a brand voice, a recurring content format, a niche, a preferred camera style.

## Where to find them

- **Tools → Skills** opens the skills dialog.
- Inside the Prompt Agent panel, the **Skill** chip under the message box opens the same dialog. The active skill is shown as a chip; remove it there to deactivate it.

## Using a skill in the Prompt Agent

1. Open the Prompt Agent in the Image or Video Studio.
2. Click the **Skill** chip under the message box. The skills dialog opens on My Skills.
3. Click **Use Directly** on the skill you want. The dialog closes and the skill appears as a chip above the message box.
4. Describe your idea as usual. The agent follows the skill's instructions in every turn of this conversation until you remove the chip with its ×.

One skill is active at a time. Pick another one from the dialog to switch.

## My Skills

- The skills you created, filtered by surface (image or video). Search them and sort by newest or most used.
- **Use Directly** activates a skill for the current Prompt Agent conversation (see above).
- Edit or delete your own skills from the card menu.

## Skill Library

- Ready-made skills published by SocialArt, for example genre guides for video scenes.
- Use one directly in the current conversation, or add it to My Skills to keep it at hand.

## Create Skill

1. **Name**, for example "My Vlog Style".
2. **Description** (optional): when the agent should use this skill.
3. **Surface**: image, video or both.
4. **Instructions**: what the agent follows while the skill is active. Write them like a brief to a creative: tone, framing, lighting, do's and don'ts.
5. **Thumbnail** (optional): an image for the skill card.
6. Save to My Skills. The skill appears in the agent for the surface you chose.

## Cost

Skills are free. Prompt Agent turns are metered as usual (see https://socialart.ai/llms/prompt-agent.txt).
