A skill is a short set of instructions for the model. Model Hub comes with skills for answering about a note, writing help, web research, Obsidian Markdown, Bases and Canvas. Other plugins can register more. You can add your own in a folder in your vault.

Before you start

Decide on a folder for skills, such as Skills.

Steps

1. Open Settings → Model Hub → Skills.
2. In Skills folder, enter the folder's path.
3. Add a skill to the folder in one of two forms:
   • a subfolder holding a SKILL.md file, or
   • a note whose properties have a name and a description.
4. Select Reload, or run Model Hub: Reload skills. Edits inside the folder are picked up without reloading.

A SKILL.md starts with properties, then the instructions:

---
name: meeting-notes
description: Turn rough meeting notes into decisions, owners and next steps.
---

- Lead with decisions, then actions with an owner each.
- Keep the note's own wording for names and dates.

What you get

Available skills lists every skill with where it comes from. A skill of yours with the same name as a built-in one replaces it. Problems with a skill are listed at the top of the tab.

• A skill with mode: always in its properties joins every request that uses skills. Only skills in your vault may be always on.
• A skill with extends: <another skill> has that skill's instructions placed before its own.
