# Getting Started with Muse Skills

## Overview

A skill is a portable, reusable playbook: a short markdown file called `SKILL.md` that describes a capability or workflow in plain language. The format follows the open Agent Skills convention — `--- name / description ---` frontmatter at the top, then a structured body. Because a skill is just text, it works anywhere Muse can read text: in chat, in a repo, on a website. Nothing to install, nothing to execute. The skill gives Muse shared context for the task; you still review and approve anything it does.

The honest state of things, as of 2026-09-26: Meta's official Help Center documents customizing Muse's personality, name, and memories through conversation, but there is no officially documented user-facing "install a SKILL.md" flow for Meta's personal Muse assistant — no verified settings page, upload button, or plugin store. So the practical path today is delightfully low-tech: open a skill's SKILL.md, paste its content into chat, and ask Muse to use it or remember it for relevant tasks. That works reliably right now, and everything in this repo is written with that workflow in mind.

## When to use

- You're new to Muse and heard skills are a thing — start here before anything else
- You want to use one of this repo's skills but don't know the mechanics
- You want to write your own skill and need the file format and conventions
- You want to contribute a skill back to this repo
