These Skills can be created, adapted, and managed inside the Phi architecture, making it easier for product managers and domain experts to define powerful AI capabilities for concrete business tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With PhiSkills, teams can connect structured instructions, PhiAgents, PhiBox sources, and Tool Calls into one practical execution layer. The result is a flexible way to create repeatable AI behaviour that can access company knowledge, use existing tools, and support complex workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skills as a practical layer for AI product development<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many AI workflows require more than one prompt. They need clear instructions, access to the right documents, reusable procedures, and the ability to call tools or agents when additional processing is required. PhiSkills provides this layer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skills can describe how a task should be solved, which knowledge sources should be used, which tools may be called, and how the result should be structured. This makes them useful for repeatable processes such as document review, content generation, data extraction, classification, compliance checks, or customer-specific AI assistants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key capabilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skills in the Anthropic format<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PhiSkills supports the Anthropic Skills format and makes it available inside the Phi environment. This allows teams to work with a clear, structured and portable way of defining AI capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reusable AI instructions<\/strong> for recurring tasks and workflows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Structured task definitions<\/strong> that go beyond simple prompting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Portable skill logic<\/strong> based on a recognised Skills format<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clear separation<\/strong> between skill behaviour, data sources, and execution tools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Integration with PhiStudio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PhiSkills is designed to be used directly in PhiStudio. Product managers can create, configure, test, and refine Skills without needing to rebuild the whole AI architecture for every new use case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skill creation inside PhiStudio<\/strong> for fast iteration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Configuration for product teams<\/strong> instead of developer-only setup<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Testing and refinement<\/strong> within the existing PhiStudio environment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Consistent governance<\/strong> across prompts, agents, tools, and sources<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connection to PhiAgents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Skills can integrate with PhiAgents created in PhiStudio. This allows a Skill to become part of a larger agentic workflow, where different agents, tools, and sources can work together to complete a task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Use Skills inside PhiAgents<\/strong> for structured task execution<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Combine Skills and agents<\/strong> for multi-step reasoning and processing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Support complex workflows<\/strong> without hard-coding each process<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reuse proven Skills<\/strong> across different agents and projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Access to PhiBox sources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Existing sources from PhiBox can be connected to PhiSkills. This means Skills can use private company documents, structured knowledge, and project-specific content as the basis for their output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Connect Skills to existing PhiBox projects<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use private company knowledge<\/strong> in repeatable AI workflows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Work with document sets, metadata, and filtered sources<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Support knowledge-based answers<\/strong> instead of generic model output<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tool Calls from PhiBox and PhiStudio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PhiSkills can call Tool Calls from PhiBox or PhiStudio. This allows Skills to interact with external systems, execute functions, retrieve data, or trigger specific processing steps when required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Call existing PhiBox tools<\/strong> from inside a Skill<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use PhiStudio Tool Calls<\/strong> for project-specific automation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connect external databases and services<\/strong> through controlled tool access<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Enable action-oriented AI workflows<\/strong> beyond text generation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Designed for product managers and AI teams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Phi architecture makes it easy for product managers to define and manage powerful AI capabilities. Instead of asking developers to create a new custom workflow for every business case, product teams can assemble Skills, agents, sources, and Tool Calls into controlled AI processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This approach helps teams move faster from idea to working AI functionality. A product manager can define what a Skill should do, connect it to the right PhiBox sources, decide which tools it can use, and combine it with PhiAgents where more complex orchestration is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How PhiSkills connects the Phi architecture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<!-- PhiSkills Architecture Flow Infographic -->\n<style>\n  .phi-skills-flow {\n
