# Agent skills

Apolo MCP ships optional skills that teach supported agent clients how to combine tools into safe workflows. Skills do not add permissions or tools; they provide workflow instructions and client-facing selection metadata.

## [Apolo Platform User Context](https://github.com/neuro-inc/apolo-mcp/tree/init/skills/apolo-platform-user-context/SKILL.md)

**Skill name:** `apolo-platform-user-context`

**Client summary:** Resolve user context and Apolo terminology

Discover and explain a user's Apolo cluster, organization, project, presets, resource hierarchy, terminology, aliases, and URI resolution. Use before Apolo operations, when the user's target context or resource reference is ambiguous, or when routing questions to authoritative CLI, SDK, Flow, Apps, or platform documentation.

## [Apolo Research Job](https://github.com/neuro-inc/apolo-mcp/tree/init/skills/apolo-research-job/SKILL.md)

**Skill name:** `apolo-research-job`

**Client summary:** Run bounded research jobs with provenance

Stage, launch, monitor, evidence, and clean up bounded Apolo research or experiment jobs. Use for training, evaluation, data processing, reproducible scripts, mounted storage outputs, secret-backed jobs, or short compute tasks that need context, preset, provenance, and cost hygiene.

## [Apolo Flow Workloads](https://github.com/neuro-inc/apolo-mcp/tree/init/skills/apolo-flow-workloads/SKILL.md)

**Skill name:** `apolo-flow-workloads`

**Client summary:** Operate Apolo live workflows and batch bakes

Validate and operate Apolo Flow live jobs and batch bakes, including run, inspect, bounded logs/wait, failure diagnosis, restart, cancel, persistent outputs, and cleanup. Use when a request references flow YAML, a Flow project, live jobs, batch actions, bakes, attempts, tasks, or executors.

## [Apolo Applications](https://github.com/neuro-inc/apolo-mcp/tree/init/skills/apolo-applications/SKILL.md)

**Skill name:** `apolo-applications`

**Client summary:** Discover, operate, and debug Apolo Apps

Discover and compare Apolo App templates; inspect status, logs, events, and outputs; debug failures; and plan, install, update, roll back, or delete Apps with immutable checksum-bound files and state-drift protection. Use for any Apps discovery, operation, debugging, or lifecycle request.

## [Apolo Resource Management](https://github.com/neuro-inc/apolo-mcp/tree/init/skills/apolo-resource-management/SKILL.md)

**Skill name:** `apolo-resource-management`

**Client summary:** Manage Apolo resources with bounded safe operations

Inspect and safely manage Apolo storage, disks, images, buckets/blobs, secrets, and service accounts with explicit context, bounded transfers, protected credential sources/sinks, policy gates, and exact ownership. Use for platform resource inventory, metadata, creation, transfer, deletion, or cleanup.
