[en] Skills are reusable instructions for tasks you do often, like writing SEO content, adding calls to action or applying your brand. When a request matches a skill, Copilot follows its instructions, so you don't need to repeat them in every prompt.
[en] Skills work in Copilot in the Editor (Editor 2.0) and in Duda Vibe.
Note
[en] Skills aren't used when you generate a site with AI (Generate Site).
[en] There are two types of skills, shown in the Type column of the Skills page:
-
[en] System Default: built-in skills for common tasks. You can turn them on or off and duplicate them, but you can't edit or delete them or change who can use them.
-
[en] Custom: skills you create. You can edit and delete them.
[en] The list of system default skills can change over time. To see the current list, open the Skills page.
[en] The Skills page lists every skill in your account, with its type, where it works (Environment), who can use it (Permission Level) and an On/Off toggle. To find a skill, use the search box or the All Skills and All Environments filters.

-
[en] In the top right corner of the dashboard, click your initials.

-
[en] Type /, then select the skill.
