Overview
Skills give Sawmills Agent a predefined way to handle common tasks. A skill can guide how the agent approaches a request, which steps it follows, and how it structures the result.Why Skills Matter
Skills help make repeated work more consistent across a workspace. They are useful when a team wants the agent to follow the same process for similar requests. Examples include:- recurring investigation patterns
- standard summaries
- team-specific ways of working
Using Skills
When a skill applies to a request, Sawmills Agent can use it to follow a more consistent workflow than a general conversation alone. From a user point of view, this means:- more predictable results for common tasks
- fewer repeated instructions
- easier reuse of proven workflows
Managing Skills
In workspaces where custom skills are enabled, administrators can manage skills for their organization. Common management actions include:- creating a new skill
- updating an existing skill
- reviewing previous versions
- rolling back to an earlier version
Notes
Skill availability and management access depend on your workspace configuration.
