Grant model

How granting works

A skill is a permission you hand to an agent — not a silent preload.

1Pick it in SkillsAll 24 built-in skills live in one list. Aster is there on day one — nothing to install.
2Grant it per agentA skill is a permission, not a preload. Each agent only carries the skills you've granted it, and you can take one back any time.
3It reaches only what's declaredThis one declares no access at all — the ledger below is the receipt.

Skills

App AutomationsBuild and run reusable app automations — your AI opens an app and taps, types, and scrolls through a flow for you (post to LinkedIn, search & play on YouTube, summarise Instagram activity, book an Uber up to payment, and more). Give it a topic and it writes the post — you pick from a few drafts before it publishes. Describe the flow once and your AI walks it on the real screen to learn the steps, then replays them fast and deterministically; it self-heals a step if the app changes, and hands off to you at logins and payments. Manage them from any chat. Schedulable. On-device, with your confirmation.

AsterYour AI's phone superpowers via the Aster companion — search contacts, find and remove duplicates, search your SMS, find spam, see which apps hold which permissions and how much space they use, and — when you allow it — drive your screen to complete multi-step tasks for you, all on-device with your confirmation.

Agent AdminBuild and run your own team of sub-agents — create a focused agent for a recurring job, give it a persona and an FAQ, grant it skills and business access, test it, and clean it up.

App BuilderBuild, edit, and run on-device React web apps & websites — scaffold a project, edit its source with read-before-write safety, compile it with esbuild, and style it from 14 curated design presets with preloaded fonts.

App GuideKnows OpenAlly inside-out — how to do anything in the app, the skills system, providers, Aster, privacy, support, and how to follow OpenAlly for feature updates. In in-app chat it can drop tappable buttons that open the right screen; in a messaging channel it gives written step-by-step directions.

Background TasksUnderstand and report on long-running background work. Some jobs — generating a video, a scheduled run — take longer than a single reply, so they run in the background: your AI starts the job, tells you it's working, and delivers the result back into the chat when it's ready. Check progress any time, and view, cancel, or mute tasks in the Background Tasks app.
