# Skills

> Import, enable, and disable skill packs so the model can load a specialized workflow on demand.

Skills are on-demand skill packs that teach the model a class of repeatable tasks, such as a release check, commit convention, or in-project scaffold.

Open **Settings → Skills**. Claude and Codex Skills are shown in separate UIs.

## Where skills come from

The list is grouped by scope:

| Scope               | Meaning                             |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| Global / user       | Applies to projects on this machine |
| This project / repo | Applies only to the current project |

Use the top filter to show all, enabled only, or disabled only. You can also search by name.

## Import a skill

Click import and pick a target scope:

* Import as a global / user skill
* Import as a project / repo skill

You get a notice for success, partial success, or failure.

<Note>
  Skill packs should come from a source you trust. Read the description and the commands it will run before you import.
</Note>

## Enable and disable

Each skill has its own switch. After you disable it, the model no longer loads it, but the files stay.

Codex Skills also support a `$` prefix call and integrate with the enabled state in `config.toml`.

## Difference from Agents and prompts

| Capability     | When to use it                                    |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| Skills         | A reusable workflow the model loads on demand     |
| Agents         | A fixed persona and tool setup, selected with `#` |
| Prompt library | Insertable text, inserted with `!`                |

You can use all three together. See [Agents and prompt library](/en/jetbrains/customize/agents-prompts).
