Google has added a new AI feature called “Skills” to its Chrome browser to help users save and reuse their favorite AI tasks. The feature started rolling out on Tuesday for desktop users who are signed into their Google account and using English (US) as their browser language.
Skills works with Google’s Gemini AI, which is already built into Chrome. With this update, users can save prompts they often use and run them again on any webpage without typing them again. This helps make tasks faster and easier.
For example, if a user often asks Gemini to suggest vegan options while reading recipes, they can save that prompt as a Skill. They can then use it anytime with just a click or by typing a slash ( / ) or pressing the plus ( + ) button.
Users can save a Skill from their chat history and edit it anytime. The feature can also run across multiple open tabs. Google said early users tried Skills for tasks like checking nutrition in recipes, comparing products when shopping, and summarizing long articles.
To help users start, Google also added a Skills library. This includes ready-made tasks for productivity, shopping, recipes, and budgeting. Users can add these and change them based on their needs.
Before doing actions like sending emails or adding events, Skills will ask for user approval.
