<!-- This issue template can be used as a great starting point for feature requests. Learn more about the process: https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/product-management/#customer-feature-requests. The section "Release notes" can be used as a summary of the feature and is also required if you want to have your release post blog MR auto generated using the release post item generator: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/blog/release-posts/#release-post-item-generator. The remaining sections are the backbone for every feature in GitLab. The goal of this template is brevity for quick/smaller iterations. For a more thorough list of considerations for larger features or feature sets, you can leverage the detailed [feature proposal](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/.gitlab/issue_templates/Feature%20proposal%20-%20detailed.md). --> ### Release notes <!-- What is the problem and solution you're proposing? This content sets the overall vision for the feature and serves as the release notes that will populate in various places, including the [release post blog](https://about.gitlab.com/releases/categories/releases/) and [Gitlab project releases](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/releases). " --> ### Problem to solve Administrators would like a way to centrally manage and enable skills across projects at an instance or top-level group level. ### Proposal Add a new AI Catalog Item type "skill" which can be created from a SKILL.md file from the Agent Skills specification. ### Intended users Any of the following users may want to create and enable skills across groups/projects: * [Sasha (Software Developer)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#sasha-software-developer) * [Priyanka (Platform Engineer)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#priyanka-platform-engineer) * [Simone (Software Engineer in Test)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#simone-software-engineer-in-test) * [Ingrid (Infrastructure Operator)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#ingrid-infrastructure-operator) * [Amy (Application Security Engineer)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#amy-application-security-engineer) * [Isaac (Infrastructure Engineer)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#isaac-infrastructure-security-engineer) * [Alex (Security Operations Engineer)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#alex-security-operations-engineer) * [Cameron (Compliance Manager)](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#cameron-compliance-manager) ### Feature Usage Metrics <!-- How are you going to track usage of this feature? Think about user behavior and their interaction with the product. What indicates someone is getting value from it? Explore (../../doc/development/internal_analytics/internal_event_instrumentation/quick_start.md) for a guide. --> We can track the number of skills that exist and the number of GraphQL calls to fetch skill items from the catalog. ### Does this feature require an audit event? <!--- Check out these docs to know more https://docs.gitlab.com/development/audit_event_guide/#what-are-audit-events https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/compliance/audit_event_reports/ ---> Yes, we'll want to introduce audit events for CRUD operations against skills in the AI Catalog. <!-- Label reminders Make sure to add the appropriate labels for the product stage and/or group (e.g ~"devops::plan") if known and add a comment tagging the appropriate Product Manager. Use the following resources to find the appropriate labels: - Use only one tier label choosing the lowest tier this is intended for - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/labels - https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/features/ Examples: /label ~group:: ~section:: ~Category: /label ~"GitLab Free" ~"GitLab Premium" ~"GitLab Ultimate" -->
