Connect Agent Skills

Extend a synthetic individual beyond conversation — give them the ability to actually do things.

Conversation is useful. Action is more useful.

By default, a synthetic individual can discuss, react, evaluate, and respond. Agent Skills extend what they can actually do — turning a passive research subject into an active participant in structured workflows.

This matters when your research question isn't just "what do you think" but "what would you do." A synthetic individual with the right Agent Skills can walk through a process, apply specialized logic, or interact with a defined workflow — producing outputs that go beyond qualitative insight.

To connect a skill:

  1. Open the individual's profile and go to Capabilities
  2. Find the Skills row and click Connect
  3. Select the Skill you want to attach
  4. Click Save

Extend what an individual can do beyond conversation. Examples:

  • Execute structured tasks
  • Apply specialized reasoning or logic
  • Interact with defined workflows

Use Agent Skills when you need your individuals to do something, not just say something.
