# Skills overview

> Turn repeatable work into portable Agent Skills your workspace can review and reuse.

A skill is a `SKILL.md` file with YAML frontmatter and instructions. It can also include scripts, references, and assets in a bundle.

```markdown SKILL.md theme={null}
---
name: incident-brief
description: Build a concise incident brief from alerts and service context.
---

## Incident brief

Check the context map for service ownership before querying alerts.
Report impact, timeline, owner, current status, and the next decision.
```

Port of Context stores the original skill content and keeps its name, description, scope, placement, source, and review state with it.

## The skill library

The library gives members one place to:

* Author a new `SKILL.md`
* Search and import from a public registry
* Import a skill from a supported repository URL
* Upload a `SKILL.md`, `.zip`, or `.skill` bundle
* Add or remove bundled files
* Download a portable copy
* Submit a personal skill for workspace review

Admins can disable external skill import or require review before a skill is shared across the workspace.

## Scope

| Scope | Who can use it | Typical use |
| - | - | - |
| `personal` | The owner | Drafts, experiments, and individual workflows |
| `team` | The selected team | Workflows tied to one function or domain |
| `org` | Everyone in the workspace | Approved workspace-wide methods |

## Placement

Place a skill on a team, system, or domain when it applies there. Placement makes the skill discoverable from that part of the context map.

Leave a skill unplaced when it is a general personal or library skill.
