Skill & Memory
Skills
Skills are reusable custom instructions written in Markdown that tell the Agent exactly how to navigate a site or complete a task step by step. Think of a Skill as a precise playbook. When your task runs, the OS will reference relevant Skills to plan and execute actions.

Create or edit a Skill
Open the side menu.
Click Create new Skill.
Rename the
new-skill.mdfileA Markdown composer opens. Write or paste your Skill content.
The composer will automatically save
To edit later, open the side menu, select the Skill, update the Markdown, then Save.
Confirm a Skill is being used
During task execution, check the pink brain
icon to the left of any step. Hover to see the tooltip. The tooltip lists the Skill that influenced that step.
How to write a high quality Skill
Give the Skill a clear name and a one sentence objective.
Specify exact page locations to operate in.
Use literal click and type guidance for fragile UI.
State success criteria and the final deliverable.
Include guardrails such as date windows, quantity targets, formats, and required confirmations.
Prefer short, imperative sentences.
Skill Example
name: publish_video_on_Youtube description: Publish long videos or Shorts on YouTube website: '' related_skills: []
Publish Video on Youtube
Instructions
Obtain the file ID that needs to be uploaded. This could be the File ID returned from a previous download action, or it could be the ID of a file manually found in the file system based on the upload file description, or it could be a file uploaded by the user as an attachment.
Go to [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/](https://studio.youtube.com/channel/) , click the "Create" button in the upper right corner, and click "Upload Video" in the dropdown menu that appears.
Use the upload_file Action capability to upload the file that needs to be uploaded to the "Select File" element in the modal that pops up. It is strictly forbidden to directly click this element to upload.
Wait 10 seconds until the upload is complete and the modal displays a detailed information form. If it doesn't appear, continue repeating this step.
Fill in the video title and description in the form, then fill in the "Made for Kids" form item according to the specific content of the video and the audience.
If any confirmation bubble appears, click to close it.
In the next few steps, continue clicking "Next" until you reach the "Visibility" step. Select the visibility range as needed, then click "Publish"Maintenance tips
Keep Skills focused on one workflow. Create a new Skill for different sites, or to separate complex task on a single site
Review Skills that are not triggering. Update instructions or clarify steps as needed.
Troubleshooting Skills
The Skill did not trigger: make sure the Location line matches the active site and that the task prompt mentions the same site.
Steps are being skipped: try to add words from your skill file to your prompt to help the model
Memories
Memories are persistent facts the Agent should remember across tasks. Use them for context that improves decisions and output quality. Examples include brand voice, formatting preferences, target regions, approved tools, and stable account details that are not secrets.

Create or edit a Memory
Open the side menu.
Click Create new Memory.
Rename the
new-memory.mdfileA Markdown composer opens. Write the Memory content.
The composer will automatically save
To edit later, open the side menu, select the Memory, update the Markdown, then Save.
Confirm a Memory is being used During task execution, check the pink brain icon to the left of any step. Hover to see the tooltip. The tooltip lists Memories that influenced that step.
What belongs in Memories
Brand and tone guidelines with concrete examples.
Formatting rules such as preferred deliverables, column orders, and naming patterns.
Stable constraints such as budget ranges, date windows, and safe sources.
Tool preferences such as where to store outputs and which apps to use first.
Accepted definitions such as what qualifies as a lead or a win.
What does not belong in Memories
Secrets and credentials.
Rapidly changing facts such as daily prices or schedules.

Recommended Memory template
# Memory name: Marketing defaults for research and reporting
Voice and tone:
- Confident, clear, friendly
- Avoid slang
- Prefer short paragraphs with bullets for key points
Output defaults:
- Primary deliverable: Google Doc summary
- Secondary deliverable: CSV table in Assets when lists exceed 10 rows
- File naming: {yyyy-mm-dd}_{project}_{short-title}
Quality rules:
- Always provide direct links for claims and data
- Prefer sources published within the last 90 days for market data
- When uncertain, ask a single clarifying question before proceeding
Research scope:
- Priority sources: company sites, official docs, primary data
- Acceptable sources: trusted news and analyst outlets with bylines
- Exclude: forums unless explicitly requested
Constraints:
- Budget examples should use USD
- Target regions: United States and CanadaMaintenance tips
Keep Memories short and stable. If it grows beyond one page, split it into focused Memories.
Review Memories monthly and archive what is no longer useful.
Troubleshooting Memories
The output ignores formatting rules: confirm the Memory exists and is active, then restate the key rule in your prompt once.
Outdated preferences are applied: open the Memory, edit the outdated line, and Save.
The wrong region or source appears: tighten the Research scope section and add explicit exclusions.
Pro tips
Monitor the output of your task, then build skills and memories accordingly to avoid future mistakes or to replicate success.
Use precise Locations. If an output must land in Google Docs or Sheets, say so.
Set guardrails in Criteria. Define minimum counts, date windows, formats, and sources.
Chain deliverables. Ask for a summary, then a slide outline, then a final deck draft.
Attach context. Upload brand voice docs, target lists, CSVs, and style guides for higher fidelity.
while the task is running you can send follow-up prompts to send more instructions and the Agent will pause immediately to read your instructions
Troubleshooting
The OS stops to ask for a login - Sign in directly on the site. The OS cont qinues once authentication completes.
The site has infinite scroll or complex UI - Switch to Pro mode. Add explicit Criteria such as number of items to load.
The result is close but not perfect - review your prompt and the models output, then decide if the skill, memory or prompt needs updating
