Skills

Skills are installable packages that bundle tool definitions (OpenAI function schemas) with their Python backend implementations. Each skill package contains a manifest (skill.json), lifecycle hooks (setup.py), tool definitions (tool-definitions.json), and Python backends (backend/tools/). Once installed and enabled, a skill’s tools are automatically available for assignment to agents.

Skills are managed via the Web UI (/skills page) or the evonic skill CLI commands.
