FAQ
What's the difference between a Skill and a Guard?
A Skill is a playbook that guides how the worker handles a situation. A Guard is a rule that blocks a draft outright when it breaks a policy, regardless of which Skill produced it.
Can I create a Skill from scratch?
Yes. Click Create skill and write your own plain-language playbook, or start from one of the available platform templates.
Does editing a Skill affect it immediately?
Yes for the live version. Use Save as new version instead of Update current version if you want to keep the previous content as a restorable snapshot.
