Skill Workshop 2.0: Versions and Undo

v2026.10.5 added saved versions and Undo to Skill Workshop. You can inspect how a learned skill changed, compare versions, archive it, and restore an earlier procedure without rewriting the skill from scratch.

Background learning sends conversation and tool content to your configured model provider and can add usage charges. Official notes: choose Off to stop background learning and unused-skill cleanup; you can still request learning with /learn.

What to use it for

  • A skill that used to work started skipping a step after a long chat.
  • You want a diff between “what I wrote” and “what the agent learned.”
  • You archived a procedure and need it back next quarter.

Authoring a skill from zero is still custom skills and ClawHub. Workshop is for procedures the assistant already learned.

Operator loop

  1. Open Skill Workshop from the Control UI (sidebar was also refreshed in 10.5).
  2. Pick the learned skill. Compare versions before you Undo.
  3. Undo if the latest version is worse. Archive skills you are not ready to delete.
  4. If you do not want silent learning, turn background learning Off. Use /learn when you explicitly want a capture.

Privacy and cost

Learned skills are not free just because they live on your disk. The learning pass is a model call. For a cost view of the last 30 days see Usage reporting. Audit third-party skills separately: skills audit.
