feat(skills): added skills to agent block #3149

waleedlatif1 · 2026-02-06T01:46:10Z

Summary

Adds Agent Skills as a first-class feature — reusable prompt/instruction packages that users can create, manage, and attach to Agent blocks. Follows the agentskills.io open specification.

Architecture

Skills use progressive disclosure to keep context lean:

Metadata only (name + description) is injected into the system prompt as <available_skills> XML so the LLM knows what's available
An auto-injected load_skill tool lets the LLM load full skill content on-demand when it decides a skill is relevant
Full markdown instructions enter context as a tool response — not bloating the system prompt

This works across all providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, etc.) using standard tool-calling — no provider-specific code needed.

What's included

DB schema: skill table with workspace-scoped unique name index
API: CRUD routes at /api/skills with workspace permission checks
Settings UI: Skills tab under Tools with create/edit/delete modal
Agent block: skill-input subblock (Combobox dropdown for skill selection)
Execution: skills-resolver.ts for metadata/content resolution, load_skill handler in tools/index.ts
Permissions: disableSkills wired end-to-end (permission groups API, access control UI, settings modal, executor validation)
Docs: Skills documentation page
Icon: agentskills.io hexagon favicon

Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

Introduces Agent Skills: workspace-scoped skill entities (name/description/content) with CRUD API and settings UI for creation/edit/deletion.
Extends agent block configuration with a skill-input sub-block and executor support for progressive-disclosure skill usage (inject metadata in system prompt + load_skill tool).
Adds access-control plumbing for disableSkills across permission group APIs, config parsing/defaults, and admin UI.
Includes related executor fixes/tests (edge-manager cascade queueing) and webhook improvements (Slack attachments + trigger output processing).

Confidence Score: 3/5

This PR is close to mergeable but has a couple of fix-required issues affecting permissions enforcement and UI stability.
Core feature wiring looks consistent (DB/API/UI/executor), but (1) load_skill execution currently bypasses the new disableSkills access-control check, and (2) the SkillInput UI can crash if permission config isn’t available on initial render. Fixing these should materially reduce merge risk.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/app/api/skills/route.ts	Adds CRUD API for workspace-scoped skills with permission checks and validation.
apps/sim/app/workspace/[workspaceId]/w/[workflowId]/components/panel/components/editor/components/sub-block/components/skill-input/skill-input.tsx	Implements skill selection UI for agent blocks; currently can crash if permission config is undefined while loading.
apps/sim/ee/access-control/utils/permission-check.ts	Adds SkillsNotAllowedError and validateSkillsAllowed enforcement helper.
apps/sim/executor/execution/edge-manager.test.ts	Adds regression tests ensuring sentinel_end not queued on fully deactivated loop branch.
apps/sim/executor/execution/edge-manager.ts	Adjusts cascade terminal control-node queuing to only occur when all outgoing edges deactivate.
apps/sim/executor/handlers/agent/agent-handler.ts	Injects skills metadata into system prompt and adds load_skill tool; permission bypass risk remains in tools/index.ts handler.
apps/sim/executor/handlers/agent/skills-resolver.ts	Implements skills metadata/content resolution and tool definition builder (no direct issues found here).
apps/sim/executor/utils/block-data.ts	Adds schema derivation for evaluator metrics and responseFormat fields (no critical issues found).
apps/sim/lib/webhooks/utils.server.ts	Adds Slack file download support with SSRF guards, size/count limits, and webhook input formatting updates.
apps/sim/lib/workflows/skills/operations.ts	Implements transactional upsertSkills with duplicate-name checks and workspace scoping.
apps/sim/tools/index.ts	Adds load_skill tool execution; currently does not enforce disableSkills permission (bypass).
packages/db/migrations/0152_parallel_frog_thor.sql	Adds skill table migration; file currently missing trailing newline.
packages/db/schema.ts	Adds skill table schema with workspace/name unique index and timestamps.

Missing authz for skill loads

executeTool handles load_skill by trusting params._context?.workspaceId, but it never verifies that the running agent/workflow is actually allowed to read skills for that workspace (or that the requested skill is among the agent’s selected skills). Any prompt/tool-call that can set _context.workspaceId can fetch arbitrary skill content from that workspace, bypassing the permission-group disableSkills enforcement added in the agent handler.

At minimum, gate load_skill with the same permission check used for execution (e.g. validateSkillsAllowed(ctx.userId, ctx)), and ideally restrict loads to the skill IDs/names attached to the agent block for this run (so the model can’t enumerate/fetch other workspace skills).

Comment:
**Missing authz for skill loads**

`executeTool` handles `load_skill` by trusting `params._context?.workspaceId`, but it never verifies that the running agent/workflow is actually allowed to read skills for that workspace (or that the requested skill is among the agent’s selected skills). Any prompt/tool-call that can set `_context.workspaceId` can fetch arbitrary skill content from that workspace, bypassing the permission-group `disableSkills` enforcement added in the agent handler.

At minimum, gate `load_skill` with the same permission check used for execution (e.g. `validateSkillsAllowed(ctx.userId, ctx)`), and ideally restrict loads to the skill IDs/names attached to the agent block for this run (so the model can’t enumerate/fetch other workspace skills).

How can I resolve this? If you propose a fix, please make it concise.
