Custom AI skills

A skill gives an AI assistant a repeatable way to do a task. It can turn a brief into a proposal using your template, review a draft against a checklist, structure research into a report or prepare a handover from notes.

• Inputs: the context, files or fields the assistant needs to start.
• Method: steps, decision rules and what to do when information is missing.
• Resources: examples, reference material and templates it can use.
• Output and checks: the expected format, review criteria and decisions that stay with a person.

We choose the format around the AI environment you use, including supported OpenAI tools where they fit. Instructions, templates and evaluation examples can be kept as versioned files. We check the skill against typical tasks, incomplete inputs and cases where it should ask for clarification.

A skill can guide the assistant without running on a schedule or accessing your systems. If it needs live records or must write to another tool, we scope an AI integration. If it should run when something happens or pass through several approvals, we scope a workflow.

Tell us which task you want to make repeatable, what a good result looks like and where the skill will run. A blank template, example with private data removed or existing checklist is a useful starting point.
