Google is rolling out Skills to Chrome, and it's basically prompt templates for your browser. Instead of retyping the same AI instructions every time you need them, you can save your favorite workflows and pull them up on any website.
The feature builds directly on Gemini's existing browser integration. If you've been using Gemini in Chrome, you already know it can interact with web pages. Skills just makes that interaction more efficient by letting you store the prompts you use most.
This matters if you're doing repetitive AI tasks in your browser. Summarizing articles, extracting data, reformatting content, those kinds of workflows that you find yourself doing over and over. Now you can save the exact prompt once and reuse it anywhere.
It's part of Google's broader push to make AI feel less like a separate tool and more like a native part of how you browse. The company has been steadily adding Gemini features to Chrome, and Skills is the next logical step in that direction.
For anyone building AI into their daily workflow, this is the kind of quality of life improvement that actually saves time. No more digging through chat history to find that one prompt that worked perfectly last week.
