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.
Unlike plugins that just connect to external services, skills fundamentally change how agents use computers. Imagine:
A trading agent that can analyze multiple charts simultaneously while explaining its thinking
A gaming agent that masters FPS games with superhuman precision
A design agent that expertly navigates the Adobe suite
A streaming agent that creates engaging overlays and effects in real-time

Think of Skills as what makes each agent unique - like a gaming agent that masters FPS games with perfect aim, or a trading agent that can analyze charts across multiple screens while narrating its thought process.
The key difference from Plugins:
Skills: The unique ways an agent uses the computer (like a pro gamer or expert trader)
Plugins: External tools and services the agent connects to (like OBS streaming)
