Custom skills - Allium Documentation Hub

A custom skill is a saved set of instructions that you run by name. Write the prompt once, then type / in the composer to run it again with today’s data.

Custom skills are private to your user. Other people in your organization or account can’t see or run them.

Ask the Assistant
In settings

Ask the Assistant to turn a prompt, or the conversation you just had, into a skill:

Save a weekly version of this as a skill

The Assistant drafts the name, description, and instructions, shows them to you, and saves the skill after you approve it. To change a skill later, ask the Assistant to update it.

Go to Settings > Skills, or type / in the composer and select Create skill.
Click Create Skill.
Enter a name, a description, and the instructions.
Click Create.

Edit or delete a skill from the same page.

Field	What to enter	Limit
Name	The command you type after `/`. Lowercase letters, digits, `-`, and `_`, starting with a letter or digit. Note: you can’t create skills with the same name as those created by Allium.	64 characters
Description	One line that shows in the `/` picker. The Assistant also reads it to decide when a skill applies.	500 characters
Instructions	What the Assistant does when the skill runs, written as if you typed it in full. Markdown is supported.	32,000 characters

Write instructions the way you would brief an analyst: the chains, the time window, the metric definition, the output format, and what to flag. Name tables when you know them.

Run a skill

Type / in the composer and pick a skill from the list, or keep typing to filter it. Any text after the skill name is passed as context, for example /wallet-xray 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045. You can link up to 10 skills in one message.

The Assistant composer with a skill picker open above it, listing the /weekly-dex-report skill and a Create skill row, with callouts on the Skills button and Create skill. — The skill picker

The Assistant can also pick a skill on its own when your question matches the skill’s description.

Custom skills sit on top of the skills Allium ships, such as SQL optimization and dashboard design. The Assistant always loads Allium’s skills, and you can’t edit them. To use Allium’s skills in your own agent, see Skills over MCP.
