Introduction

What a skill is

A skill is a playbook your AI assistant follows to answer one question from your connected business data. It checks what the workspace has connected, calls the Well MCP tools it needs, computes the answer, and shows the working. When something it depends on is missing, it says so instead of guessing.

Skills are authored in the open at WellApp-ai/skills, one directory per skill.

How skills relate to the Well MCP server

The MCP server is the connection. It hands your assistant tools such as well_render_runway, well_list_account_balances, and well_query_records, but it does not decide how to use them.

A skill is the instruction layer above those tools. It knows which ones to call for one question, in what order, what the workspace needs connected for the answer to hold, and how to present the result. Connect the MCP server once, then add the skills that match the questions you ask.

What ships today

Sixty skills. Forty-four answer a question you would actually ask, and sixteen are the setup steps those invoke to get what they need. Twelve of the sixty write rather than read, and every one of them shows you what it is about to do and waits for your confirmation first.
