Luma adds reusable Skills to Luma Agents

Luma has added Skills to Luma Agents: saved creative workflows that teams can rerun on new images or video and share by link, so one person's working method can be reused across a team.

Generative-video company Luma has introduced Skills, a feature that saves a creative workflow inside Luma Agents so it can be run again on new assets.

Luma says each Skill has three parts. The input is a prompt plus any image or video. The tools are the models, tasks and actions available in Luma Agents. The instructions are step-by-step guidance for applying those tools to the input. The company says the instructions are what keep results consistent when the input changes. They are written in plain language with no special syntax, and Luma suggests spelling out edge cases, such as what to do when a face is hidden.

Users can write a Skill themselves, starting with a thumbnail, name, description and instructions. They can also ask the agent to build one from a plain-language request. In Luma's example, a request to add helmets to motorcycle riders in video produced a ready-made Skill called "Safety First."

There are three ways to run a Skill: pick it from the Skills menu, call it with a slash command, or let the agent choose one based on the request. For that last option, the agent reads each Skill's description to decide which one to use.

Skills can be shared as a link, bundled into packages that install several at once, or downloaded as a zip file. When someone imports a Skill, Luma asks them to confirm and reminds them to trust its creator.

Luma's post does not mention pricing, plan availability, usage numbers or how consistent the outputs actually are.
