Skills in Happycapy

​
What are Skills?

Skills are “ability plugins” for Happycapy that transform AI from “good at chatting” to “good at working.” They’re not just simple text instructions - Skills can:
  • Call external APIs: Connect to GitHub, Notion, Google, and other third-party services to achieve cross-platform data synchronization
  • Run Python/JavaScript scripts: Perform complex data processing, image generation, video editing, and other tasks
  • Use MCP protocol (Model Context Protocol): Combine various tool capabilities like Lego bricks
Skills are the next generation of software: lightweight (a few KB text files), open source (GitHub shared), and easy to edit (5 minutes to customize). No need to install bloated apps - get professional functionality with just one Skill.

Complete Example: Job Resume Optimizer

“I submitted 100 resumes but got no response and don’t know how to change them.”
Create a Skill dedicated to optimizing your resume.
Help me create a Skill:

Name: Resume Optimizer

Function:
Input: My resume + target job JD

Process:
1. Analyze JD keywords and requirements
2. Compare with the resume and identify matches and gaps
3. Optimize wording to better fit the role
4. Quantify achievements with data
5. Improve layout to highlight key points
6. Generate 3 versions: conservative / balanced / aggressive

Output:
- 3 optimized resumes
- Usage guidance for each version
- Interview preparation points

And help me test it!
Once created, the Skill is saved in your Skill Store. Every time you submit your resume in the future, you only need to upload a new JD, and your Skill will automatically optimize it!

​
