Скачать или смотреть What Are AI Skills? Securing Agentic Workflows with Caterpillar By Alice

Agents are everywhere - and so are AI skills.

In this video, Mo Sadek, Technical Director, and Iftach Orr, Co-Founder & CTO, at Alice, introduce Caterpillar, an internal tool built to help developers safely use AI skills in agentic environments.

AI skills act like shared templates or third-party dependencies for agents. While they make agents more powerful and reusable, they can also introduce serious security and permission risks if you don’t fully understand what a skill is doing under the hood.

Caterpillar helps solve this problem by scanning AI skills before (or after) installation, verifying that they meet security standards, and clearly contextualizing the risks instead of simply blocking usage.

In this demo, you’ll see:

What AI skills are and why they matter in agentic systems
Why skills can be risky when shared across the ecosystem
How Caterpillar scans skills for permissions and behavior risks
A real example of detecting an overly permissive, unsafe skill
How Caterpillar helps developers make informed decisions
A look at upcoming features like local and remote patching

Caterpillar started as an internal Alice tool, but it’s now open-sourced to the community so developers and AI enthusiasts can install skills with confidence, not fear.
