# Skills

> Guidance for completing tasks in Nuon.

You can use our catalog of skills to author App Configs and perform other tasks in Nuon.

## Loading Skills

To avoid polluting your agent's context window, skills are not loaded by default. If you are working on a task and want to load relevent skills there two methods.

### Using the MCP

If your client is already [connected to the Nuon MCP](/guides/agents/overview), you can simply ask for skills related to your task.

```
What skills are available for editing this app config?
```

If you know what skill you want, you can ask for it by name.

```
Load the write-rego-policy skill and help me add a policy that blocks public S3 buckets.
```

### Install skills with npx

If you are not using the MCP, you install the skills from [nuonco/skills](https://github.com/nuonco/skills) using npx.

```sh theme={null}
npx skills add nuonco/skills
```

You can also install individual skills.

```sh theme={null}
npx skills add nuonco/skills/write-readme
```

## Catalog

These are all the skills we publish and maintain.

| `write-rego-policy` | OPA/Rego policies in `policies/` — every policy type, warn vs. deny, testing a policy before syncing                       |
