Built-in skill

Beam

Productivity

Share files over your own Wi-Fi with any device that has a browser. It works both ways, needs no internet, and you choose which agents may start a share.

  • Android — supported
  • iPhone — supported
  • Mac — supported

The other device never installs anything. You start a share, hand over a link and a six-digit code, and any browser on the same Wi-Fi sends or receives.

Grant model

How granting works

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

  1. Find it in Skills Beam is built in, so there is nothing separate to install.
  2. Choose who can use it Give the skill only to the agents that need this job, and change that choice whenever you want.
  3. Review its access This skill does not ask for additional access.
