Agent Skills

Agent Skills: Digital Superpowers

Skills are what transform a basic computer-use agent into a specialist. Take our ticker analysis skill - it lets agents scan crypto tickers in real-time and share market insights while streaming. That's just one example of how skills give agents incredible specialized abilities.

  • A streaming agent that creates engaging overlays and effects in real-time
