Extensions and Skills
Understand the two mechanisms for extending the app and AI workflows.
Extensions and Skills both extend Vibecape, but they operate at different layers.
Extensions
An Extension changes the app itself. It can provide document types, document actions, commands, sidebar entries, settings panels, or Agent tools.
The Extensions page lists installed and available extensions, including their status, README, permissions, and errors. Before installing one, understand the problem it solves and the permissions it needs.
To build one yourself, see Developing custom extensions.
Skills
A Skill gives Chat or an Agent a reusable method for completing work, such as market research, producing a document format, operating an API, or checking a project with a defined workflow.
Type / in the Chat input to browse and reference available Skills.
In short: Extensions change the interfaces, document types, and commands Vibecape provides; Skills change how AI approaches a task.
