Skills unlock superpowers
Skills aren't just labels β each one unlocks real capabilities on the lim that owns it. Think of it as RPG progression for your team.
What is a capability?
A capability is a UI section or runtime feature a lim gains by owning a specific skill. Examples:
| Skill | Capability unlocked | What appears |
|---|---|---|
Scheduling |
routines_panel |
Routines section on the lim's profile + ability to own cron jobs |
Instagram Expert |
instagram_feed_panel |
9-slot feed queue on the profile, carousel/reel/story tools in runtime |
Telegram Expert |
telegram_publisher_panel |
Telegram channel wiring on the profile, publish_telegram_message tool in runtime |
Web Research + related |
content_sources_panel (coming) |
Source list UI β add TG/RSS/blog feeds the lim will monitor |
How capabilities appear
Hover any skill chip on a lim's profile and you'll see a popover with:
- Tagline β one-line description of what the skill does
- ΠΠ°ΡΡ ΡΡΠΏΠ΅ΡΡΠΈΠ»Ρ β bullet list of every capability it unlocks
- Π‘ΠΊΠ°ΠΆΠΈ Π² ΡΠ°ΡΠ΅ β example chat commands that use this skill
Nexus is capability-aware
When you ask Nexus to do something, he matches the task to the right capability first, then picks a lim with a skill providing that capability. If no lim has it, he tells you: "No lim has Scheduling yet. Install it for Marcus, or I can delegate ad-hoc work without a recurring schedule."
Gamification & progression
Building a well-rounded studio is an RPG-style loop:
- Add lims to your studio (archetypes define their role)
- Equip each lim with skills from the catalog
- Each skill unlocks UI panels + prompt additions + tools for that lim
- As lims accumulate skills, their profile pages get richer with active features
- The studio becomes capable of more complex work without you installing any infrastructure
Cross-cutting: one skill, many lims
Multiple lims can have the same skill. If Aria and Marcus both have copywriting, Nexus will pick whichever is less busy (or matches the request's tone better). You don't need to specialize rigidly β flexibility is fine.
