Packaged workflows, one keystroke away.
A skill is a packaged set of instructions for a particular kind of work, so a task you do often does not need re-explaining each time. Selecting one attaches it to your next message as a chip; you type the actual task beside it.
Skills
Prepare a skill instruction in the ML.ai composer.
commit
Draft a precise Git commit message from the staged diff.
create-subagent
Define a custom subagent from a plain-language request.
ml-ai-proof
Explain what a proof card verifies in this release.
How it works
Type / to attach a skill to your next message. Five ship with the product, and your own project and global skills appear in the same list.
commit
Writes a Conventional Commits message from your current diff, rather than a generic summary of what changed.
create-subagent
Composes a new custom subagent from a plain-language description. Not a filled-in template: a definition written for that specific request.
pixis-proof
Explains, in plain language, what a run’s verification evidence actually establishes, so a green check is not taken on faith.
project-pdf and site-redesign-ui-ux
One generates a PDF overview of the current project. The other designs, audits or implements production-ready web interfaces.
A commit message in one slash
You type
/commit
You send with no other text
That is enough. The commit skill’s own instructions supply the task, so a chip with nothing typed beside it still does something specific.
ML.ai reads your current diff
Not a generic summary of what changed: a Conventional Commits message shaped from the actual diff sitting in your working tree right now.
You edit before committing
ML.ai proposes a Conventional Commits message for the diff, which you can edit before it actually becomes a commit.
Sent with nothing else typed
Reading current diff
Worth knowing
Removing the chip removes the skill from the pending message.
Valid project-level and global skills appear in the same catalog, read live from the engine.
A skill with malformed frontmatter is skipped by the engine and will not appear.

Agents
Choose a subagent for the composer and it stays selected until you remove or replace it. Each one is built for a different kind of work, and only general carries out changes end to end.
