Skills.
Skills are reusable, scoped AI capabilities. install one, it becomes available to every agent and every store in your workspace, with the same procedure and the same guardrails.
What it is
A skill is a named, versioned procedure. for example "audit catalog SEO", "draft a BFCM playbook" or "generate seasonal hero variants". It bundles the prompt, the tool whitelist, the scopes it needs and the expected output shape.
How it works
- Each skill declares its scopes. Shopify, knowledge sources, integrations.
- Skills are invoked from chat, the workflow canvas or the API.
- Output is structured (typed JSON) so it can be piped into a workflow step.
- Per-store toggles: enable a skill on one store and disable it on another.
- Versioned. pinned per store so your playbooks do not drift unexpectedly.
When to use it
Use a skill when the task is repeatable across stores or seasons. One-off questions belong in a regular @Atlas chat; recurring procedures belong in a skill so you and your team get the same shape of result every time.
Limitations
- Skills run inside the BoostEcom runtime. not your local environment.
- Custom skills are gated to design-partner accounts at this stage.
- A skill is bound by the scopes of its host token. it cannot escalate.
Compose your operator playbook.
Skills make every store run on the same procedures. without you re-writing the prompt each time.
