The Editor

The Editor is where you build an agent's behavior. Open an agent and choose Editor to get here. The Editor shows the selected skill's task graph (Chat trigger → tasks → Run Completion) plus a list of the agent's skills.

The four tabs

Inside the agent, the Editor area has four tabs along the top:

TabWhat it's for
EditorCreate and edit skills (workflows) and their tasks
DesignerAn AI-assisted plan builder (Māui) for goals, inputs, and tasks
TestsCreate and run tests against the agent
ToolsAdd and manage the agent's tools

This Editor tab is the default and the focus of the next pages. The other three are summarized in Designer, Tests & Tools.

At the bottom of the Editor is the Skills list. A Search skills… box filters it live as you type — a non-matching query hides a skill, and a matching one brings it back.

You don't need the full name — a partial match is enough to find a skill.

If the list looks empty after searching

After clearing a search, the list may not always re-render fully. If that happens, reload the Editor for a clean, unfiltered list.

Skills / Topics toggle

Above the list is a toggle with two buttons — Skills and Topics — that switches the list between the two views. Skills is the default view (with the Add Skill button and the Search skills… box); switch to Topics to view the list grouped by topic.

The canvas toolbar

When you open a skill, its task canvas appears with a toolbar of six actions:

ActionWhat it does
Add TaskAdd a new task node to the skill
Test SkillRun the skill interactively
New VersionCreate a new version of the current skill
deleteDelete the skill (red trash button, asks to confirm)
settingsOpen the skill's settings
text_compareOpen the diff / compare view

Each skill row in the list also reveals inline edit and delete buttons on hover.

The toolbar needs a skill open

The canvas toolbar (including Add Task and Test Skill) only appears once a skill is selected. With no skill open, the canvas shows nothing to act on.
