# Skill templates

> Copy a reusable starting point or publish one for your organization.

Copy a Skill template to get a personal Skill you can adapt. Templates include built-in examples and templates published by people in your organization.

## Use a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Browse templates">
    Open the templates section in Skills and read a template's instructions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy it">
    Choose **Add to my skills**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make it yours">
    Edit the copy and choose [Auto or Manual](/product/skills/managing#auto-and-manual). Try it on one task before relying on it for recurring work.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The copy belongs to your personal library. Changes to the source template don't update existing copies, and your edits don't change the template.

## Publish to your organization

Open a Skill you own and choose **Publish to organization**. Teammates can find the published template and copy it.

Publishing captures a snapshot. Publish again after improving your personal Skill if you want to update the template offered to future users.
