Skills in Studio is where you upload, manage, and share reusable skill packages across your workspace. Once uploaded, a skill is available to any agent in the workspace through the Agent Builder. If you want to understand what skills are and how they work conceptually, see Skills.

​
Upload a skill

Skills are packaged as a zip file or a GitHub repository. Each skill must contain a SKILL.md file at the root that defines its interface and behavior.
  1. Go to Skills in the Studio sidebar and select Create New.
  2. Choose how to add the skill:
    • Upload zip: drag and drop or select a .zip file from your computer.
    • GitHub repo: paste the repository URL and branch name.
  3. Lyzr validates the SKILL.md and displays the skill name, description, and parameters.
  4. Save. The skill is now available workspace-wide.

​
Lyzr built-in skill library

Lyzr provides a library of pre-built skills covering common patterns: web search, summarization, data extraction, code execution, and more. These appear in the skill selector without requiring you to upload anything.

​
Attach a skill to an agent

  1. Open the agent in the Agent Builder.
  2. Scroll to the Skills section and select Add.
  3. Choose from your uploaded skills or from the built-in skill library.
  4. Add any required skill instructions that tell the agent when and how to use this skill.
  5. Save the agent.

​
Update or remove a skill

To update a skill, re-upload a new version of the zip or push to the connected GitHub branch and trigger a refresh in Studio. All agents using the skill pick up the updated version automatically. To remove a skill from an agent, open the agent in the Agent Builder, find the skill under the Skills section, and remove it. Removing a skill from an agent does not delete it from the workspace.
