Do the work once in chat before you turn it into instructions.

​
Turn a useful chat into a private skill

  1. Finish the task in chat and keep the thread open.
  2. Ask in plain English: Turn what we just did into a reusable skill for me.
  3. OpenWork saves the skill in your OpenWork Cloud organization as a private plugin. It is not written into your workspace and it is not shared with your organization.
  4. Give the skill a clear name if OpenWork asks, then let it confirm what it saved.
  5. Use it later by name in chat, or describe the same kind of task and let OpenWork trigger it when it matches.

​
Change or share it only when you choose

  1. To refine it, ask for the change in chat, such as Make the skill ask before sending email.
  2. To share it with teammates, publish it or grant access later by following Publish and copy a skill.
  3. If you ask for a workspace-local skill instead, OpenWork should create only that local copy, not both.
Creating the skill does not publish it. Sharing is a separate step you choose.
