Save any prompt from chat history, trigger it with / or +, and run it across the page or multiple tabs. Includes a ready-to-use Skills library you can customize. From shopping comparisons to productivity boosts, streamline browsing with smarter, repeatable AI actions.

Intent

I need it when

Repeat the same AI task across multiple web pages without re-entering prompts

Skills in Chrome lets users save AI prompts as one-click tools that execute instantly on any page or multiple tabs. Users can save a prompt from chat history and reuse it by typing '/' or clicking '+' in Gemini in Chrome, eliminating manual re-entry of the same prompt.

Discover and use pre-built AI workflows for common browsing tasks

Google provides a Skills library with ready-to-use templates for frequent tasks such as breaking down product ingredients or selecting gifts by cross-referencing budget and recipient interests. Users can add library Skills as saved Skills and customize them as needed.

Create personalized AI workflows for recurring tasks like recipe modifications or product comparisons

Users can build custom Skills for domain-specific tasks (e.g., calculating protein macros, generating spec comparisons across tabs, extracting key information from documents). Skills can be edited and customized to fit individual needs, enabling tailored automation for health, shopping, and productivity workflows.

Maintain control and security while automating browser-based AI tasks

Skills are built on Chrome's security foundation with the same safeguards as Gemini prompts. Skills request confirmation before sensitive actions (adding calendar events, sending emails) and benefit from Chrome's layered protections including automated red-teaming and auto-update capabilities.

Access saved Skills across multiple devices seamlessly

Saved Skills are available on any signed-in Chrome desktop device, allowing users to manage and access their custom workflows across Mac, Windows, and ChromeOS by typing '/' in Gemini in Chrome and clicking the compass icon.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User does not use Chrome browser or prefers alternative browsers like Firefox, Safari, or Edge
  • User's Chrome language is not set to English-US, as Skills rollout is currently limited to English-US on Mac, Windows, and ChromeOS
  • User needs to automate workflows outside the browser or on non-desktop platforms, as Skills are desktop-only
  • User requires complex multi-step automation beyond AI prompt execution, as Skills are designed for repeatable AI tasks only
  • User operates in an environment with strict security policies that restrict Gemini integration or AI-powered features in the browser
