UiPath skills available to your coding agent, with an example prompt for each, grouped by stage along the automation lifecycle from discovery to troubleshooting.
These skills come with uip skills install and live in the public UiPath skills repository. You describe a task and your coding agent picks the right skill — naming one in your prompt nudges it if needed. The list below is grouped by lifecycle stage; the repo has the current set and the details.
