Skills

In the context of modern AI, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI agents, skills refer to the discrete functionalities the system is programmed or trained to execute. This can range from natural language processing tasks like summarization and translation to more complex actions like executing code, browsing the web, or interacting with third-party APIs. Skills are often modular, allowing developers to extend the utility of an AI agent by adding new capabilities through techniques like function calling or plugin integration without retraining the entire core model.
