# Skills

> Publish skills that every AI agent in the instance can use.

<Tip>Available for self-hosted Business plan and above</Tip>

Path: Admin Panel → Skills

Use **Skills** to publish skills for the whole instance. A skill added here is available in every AI Chat, App Builder, and bot conversation, so use it for working methods your organization should share by default, such as a house writing style, a reporting convention, or a shared integration procedure.

Skills added by users elsewhere stay in their own scope. See [AI Chat](/en/basic/ai/ai-chat) for personal, base, and space skills.

## Add a Skill

Click **Import Skill** and choose where the skill comes from:

| Source               | What to provide                                                                                                     |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **GitHub URL**       | The link to the skill folder in a repository, for example `https://github.com/owner/repo/tree/main/skills/my-skill` |
| **ZIP / Skill File** | A `.zip` or `.skill` file that contains `SKILL.md`                                                                  |

If a skill with the same name already exists in this scope, importing replaces it.

## Manage Published Skills

The list groups skills by scope and shows where each one came from. Built-in skills are listed at the bottom for reference and are not editable.

* Use the switch on a row to enable or disable a skill without deleting it. A disabled skill stays in the list but is not offered to agents.
* For a skill imported from GitHub, click the refresh button to pull the latest version from its source.
* Click a row to read its `SKILL.md`, edit its name and description, download it, replace its files, or delete it.

<Info>Only instance administrators can add, change, or remove skills on this page. Every signed-in user can use the published skills in their conversations.</Info>

## When a Name Is Used Twice

A skill published here is the instance default. If a base, space, personal, app, or bot skill uses the same name, the narrower one is in effect for that conversation, and the instance skill is ignored there.
