What is a skill marketplace?
A skill marketplace is a catalog of pluggable capabilities agents install — SEO audits, unit economics, compliance checks. A skill packages prompts, tool scopes, examples, and evaluation rubrics so a role gains domain expertise without custom code each time.
In depth
General models are broad; business work is narrow. Skill marketplaces ship packaged expertise a role can attach: system instructions, required connectors, in-context examples, and pass/fail eval criteria.
A skill is more than an MCP tool — it orchestrates multiple tools and quality checks into one capability ('run SEO audit,' 'close books,' 'screen resumes').
Neuro OS uses Skills & Extensions in git — versioned, reviewable, reusable across roles — plus the Marketplace for shared patterns. Custom skills compose with installed ones; corrections compound for the whole org.
Contrast: wiring MCP servers by hand (maximum flexibility, engineering cost) vs one-click skills (faster time-to-value for operators).
Examples
- Marketing role installs 'AEO content brief' skill — output includes citation-ready definitions
- Finance role installs 'SaaS unit economics' — LTV/CAC in monthly close
- Custom skill in git — your ICP research rubric, shared by all outbound roles
- Neuro OS Marketplace — browse and attach skills to a role
