Learn how to keep your Agent consistent with instructions, and save time with skills you can reuse

Instructions and skills are available for workspaces with Notion AI enabled. Learn more about Notion AI and availability in this article.

Use instructions to set how your Notion Agent shows up every day, and skills to save your favorite prompts so you can run them anytime.

What are instructions?

Instructions tell your personal Notion Agent how to respond by default (tone, formatting, and rules to follow). Your Agent uses your active instructions page in every chat. You can only use one instructions page at a time, but you can switch it anytime.

• Use instructions for things like tone, writing style, and rules you want followed every time.
• You can only have one active instructions page at a time.

Examples of instructions

• “Keep my writing concise and friendly.”
• “Always format action items as a checklist.”
• “When I ask for a summary, keep it under 5 bullets.”
• “End every response with next steps and a checklist.”
• “When I paste meeting notes, summarize decisions first, then action items.”

What are skills?

Skills are saved prompts you can run whenever you need them. A skill is just a page you’ve marked as a skill, so you can organize and share based on your preferences.

• Use skills for repeatable tasks like “Proofread,” “Explain,” or “Reformat.”
• Skills are pages, so you can organize and share them like any other page in Notion.
