Create reusable instruction modules that extend Shannon's capabilities. Skills let you build specialized tools the AI can invoke during conversations.
Skills are modular instruction modules that extend Shannon 1.6 Pro's capabilities beyond its base training. Each Skill contains specialized prompts and reference content that Shannon can intelligently invoke when relevant to your conversation.
Think of Skills as plug-in tools for your AI assistant. Rather than repeatedly explaining complex instructions or workflows, you create a Skill once and Shannon automatically applies it when the situation calls for it. This makes your AI interactions more powerful, consistent, and efficient.
Each Skill is a self-contained module that can be activated, deactivated, or shared independently
Shannon 1.6 Pro automatically decides when to apply Skills based on conversation context
Define complex workflows once and use them consistently across all your conversations
Share your Skills publicly or discover and use Skills created by the community
Each Skill consists of three essential parts:
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Name | A clear, descriptive name that identifies the Skill's function |
| Description | Helps Shannon understand when this Skill should be invoked |
| Content | The detailed instructions, prompts, or reference material Shannon uses |
Here are some examples of Skills you might create:
Automatically applies best practices, security checks, and style guidelines when reviewing code
Follows your content style guide, SEO requirements, and formatting preferences
Matches your professional tone, includes appropriate signatures, and follows company templates
Systematically diagnoses issues using your debugging framework and documentation
Maintains specific terminology, tone, and cultural considerations for translations
Creates summaries in your preferred format with specific length and detail requirements
Explains concepts using specific pedagogical approaches and learning progressions
Generates API documentation following your team's format and standards
The content of your Skill should be clear and comprehensive. Include specific instructions, examples, formatting requirements, and any constraints. The more detailed your Skill content, the more consistently Shannon will apply it.
Every Skill has an activation toggle. When active, Shannon 1.6 Pro can invoke the Skill during conversations when relevant. You can have multiple Skills active simultaneously - Shannon will choose the most appropriate one based on context.
From the Skills dashboard, you can:
Browse Skills created by the Shannon AI community. The Discover section lets you find and activate Skills created by other users, expanding your AI's capabilities without creating everything from scratch.
When you find a public Skill you want to use:
Contributing to the Community: When you make your Skills public, you help other users expand their AI capabilities. High-quality Skills with clear descriptions and useful functionality tend to see more usage and help grow the Shannon AI ecosystem.
| Do | Don't |
|---|---|
| Write clear, specific descriptions | Use vague descriptions Shannon can't match |
| Include detailed instructions in content | Rely on minimal or ambiguous content |
| Create focused, single-purpose Skills | Overload one Skill with unrelated tasks |
| Test Skills with various conversation types | Assume Skills work without testing |
| Provide examples in Skill content | Leave Shannon guessing about formats |
| Keep only relevant Skills active | Leave all Skills active all the time |
The description is crucial for Skill invocation. Write it as if you're explaining to Shannon when this Skill should be used. Include keywords and scenarios that would trigger its use. Example: "Use this Skill when the user asks to review code, check for bugs, or analyze code quality."
