Extend the Agent's capabilities

Skills, MCP, and capability boundaries

Agent already has built-in tools such as files, search, images, memory, workflows, scheduled tasks, etc. If you need a fixed way of working, add skills; if you need to connect external systems, add MCP. They solve different problems, so you don't need to install everything just for “more features.”

Prioritize the shortest path; only add MCP when the Agent truly needs to access external systems.

First determine what is needed

Need	Choose
A fixed set of steps, templates, or checklists	skills
Query databases, browsers, or third-party systems	MCP
Retrieve its own document materials	Knowledge base
Read and write current project files, generate images, or send notifications	Agent built-in tools

The most convenient way is to directly describe the goal in [Work], letting the Agent help you determine whether what's missing is a skill, MCP, or knowledge base. When you need to verify sources, connection parameters, or permissions, then go to [Settings] to manage manually.

The final step after installation

A global installation or successful connection does not mean every Agent can use it. Open [Work] → Agent menu → [Edit], and select respectively in [Skills], [MCP], or [Knowledge Base]. Configuration takes effect starting from the next message.

Configure the Agent's built-in tools, knowledge base, MCP, and skills separately, and enable them as needed for the task.
