# Knowledge, recipes and skills

> Workspace knowledge pages, step-by-step recipes and agent skills you can install.

## Knowledge

A knowledge page says what is true in your workspace: the post format for a clip on X, the caption case, how a posted clip is logged. Each page has:

* **Use when**: one line saying when it applies, such as "When drafting an X post for a clip".
* **Tools**: the tools it rides along with. When an agent calls one of them, the page comes back beside the result, so the agent has the rule without having to look for it.
* **Body**: markdown, versioned on every save with who saved it, a note and the source.

A page can be turned off without losing its history.

Pages reach agents in three ways, whatever the client: beside the replies of the tools they ride along with, in the instructions an MCP client gets when it connects, and as installable skills.

When someone corrects an agent, the agent proposes a change to the page with the correction and where it was made. A person accepts or dismisses the proposal on the Knowledge page.

## Recipes

A recipe is a step-by-step workflow for agents, such as preparing clips for review: the steps, the tools they use, CLI examples and the expected output. Reading a recipe never runs anything.

## Skills

Every recipe, and every enabled knowledge page in your workspace, is also an agent skill: a `SKILL.md` file that Claude Code, Claude Desktop and other agents load on their own. Install them with the CLI:

```bash theme={null}
npx contence skills install            # into ~/.claude/skills
npx contence skills install --project  # into ./.claude/skills
```

`--only` installs the listed skills, and `--no-knowledge` leaves out your workspace's knowledge pages. The Agents page in the app lists every skill with its `SKILL.md`.
