Skills give you quick, command-driven access to powerful AI workflows directly within your creative space. Whether you are using Air's built-in tools or your team's custom-defined workflows, skills help you generate, edit, and transform assets with a simple slash command.

Skill access depends on the type of Skill and what you have access to in Air.

When you work in boards inside libraries, you can use available Skills in those board workflows based on your existing board/library and Skill access. You do not need a separate workspace-only permission to run an available Skill from a library board.

Users with the required management access can review and manage Skills in the workspace Skills management center. If a Skill is hidden from the slash-command picker with the Show skill control, it is removed from the picker for users but remains available in the workspace Skills management center for users with the required management access.

The Skills management center organizes Skills into Private skills, Workspace skills, and Built-ins tabs. Users with the required management access can review available Skills, manage visibility, and publish private Skills to the workspace.

Skills are accessible right where you work. Open the skills button in the Canvas chat composer or type a slash (/) to view command suggestions. The slash-command picker shows the available Skills that are visible to you.

You can start a skill workflow directly from the Canvas agent. Alternatively, using the Canvas Prompt action on an asset will automatically open the agent with your selected image or group already referenced and ready for your command.

Air provides built-in Skills to accelerate your creative process. Built-in Skills are Air-provided and appear from the Built-ins tab and the available Skills list when visible to you. Many of these Skills include guided workflows, follow-up questions, and inline inputs to help you get the exact result you need.

When you create or edit a Skill, the configuration includes its name, slash command, description, Source asset type, instructions, and workspace publishing controls.

Source asset type is the input or source asset type the Skill accepts. It does not control the type of asset the Skill produces. Current Skills accept images, video, both or none as the source asset type.
