# Group skills into skill sets

Group skills into skill sets [#group-skills-into-skill-sets]

A skill set is a named group of skills. Switching a set on for an agent gives it every skill in the set, including skills you add to the set later once the agent is published again.

Open **Agents** > **Skills** in the sidebar and select the **Skill Sets** tab. **Space**, **Alo** and **Platform** switch between your workspace's sets and the built-in ones.

Create a skill set [#create-a-skill-set]

1. On the **Skill Sets** tab, select **New skill set** > **Create manually**.

2. Fill in the fields and select the skills to include.

3. Select **Create**.

| Field           | What to enter                                                                  |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Name**        | How the set appears in lists and in the agent editor.                          |
| **Description** | When agents should use this group of skills.                                   |
| **Tags**        | Labels to filter sets by.                                                      |
| **Skills**      | Check every skill that belongs in the set: your workspace's and built-in ones. |

On the **Library** tab, each set shows as a group with its skills under it; skills in no set are under **Individual skills**.

Create a skill set from a ZIP [#create-a-skill-set-from-a-zip]

Select **New skill set** > **Upload ZIP** and choose a ZIP whose top-level folders each hold one skill with its `SKILL.md`. Every skill is imported, and a set named after the ZIP file is created around them. The ZIP rules are the same as for skills; see [Create a skill](/docs/platform/skills/create#upload-a-zip).

Use a skill set [#use-a-skill-set]

In the agent editor, open **Skills**, then the **Skill Sets** tab, and select the set. See [Configure an agent](/docs/platform/agents/configure).

Edit or delete a skill set [#edit-or-delete-a-skill-set]

Select a set's name to edit it, then **Save*&#x2A;. To delete one, open the &#x2A;*⋮** menu at the end of its row and select **Delete**.

* Deleting a set removes the group, not the skills in it.
* Deleting a set takes it off every agent's draft; agents keep its skills in their published version until they are published again, and keep any skill also switched on for them on its own.
* A change to a set reaches each agent that uses it when that agent is next published.
