Workspace Skills

Deploy Skills across your entire workspace as defaults or mandated rules so every user benefits from day one.

Workspace Skills let admins make Skills available or mandatory for every user in the workspace. Instead of asking each person to find and install the right Skills, you set them up once and they are active for everyone automatically.

Before deploying a Skill, build it first. See Creating Skills for all three creation methods.

Two types of workspace deployment

Both options are configured from the Share dialog on the Skill itself. Open a Skill, click Share, and you will see a General access section (visible to admins only).

Workspace-shared Skills

Set General access to Anyone in workspace in the Share dialog. The Skill becomes visible to all workspace members. Users can discover it on the Skills page and choose to install it. Sharing does not force the Skill on anyone.

Workspace-mandated Skills

In the Share dialog, set General access to Anyone in workspace, then check Apply for all members. This makes the Skill active for every user automatically. Users cannot disable it. A locked toggle indicates that a Skill is mandated. Its tooltip explains that the Skill is applied to all workspace members.

The "Apply for all members" checkbox is only visible to admins.

Limit: A workspace can have a maximum of 8 mandated Skills.

What to put in workspace Skills

Skills work best when the instructions capture something your team does repeatedly and needs to do consistently. A few examples:

• Tone of voice. Your brand guidelines applied to every output, for every user, without anyone having to think about it.
• Output formats. Status updates, meeting summaries, and project briefs all following the same structure across the team.
• Compliance language. Legal or regulatory requirements injected automatically into relevant outputs so they are never forgotten.
• Customer-facing standards. Support replies and proposals that match your style guide, consistently.
• Integration workflows. A "Client Email" Skill with your CRM integration attached so users get that capability without setting it up themselves. See Skills and Integrations.

For more examples with full instructions you can copy or adapt, see the Skills Guide.

What happens when you mandate a Skill

When a Skill is mandated:

• It becomes active for all workspace members immediately.
• Users cannot toggle it off.
• It appears with a locked toggle in the Skills list.
• It does not count toward the user's personal active-Skill limit.
• If the workspace already has 8 mandated Skills, the action will fail. Remove one first.
