SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes friction from initial Cowork onboarding by guiding users through role selection, installing a matching plugin, trying a sample skill, and connecting external tools so they can use skills with real data quickly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Role-based onboarding: Prompts the user for their role using a role picker tool and tailors recommendations to that role.
  • Plugin discovery and install: Searches the plugin marketplace (including already-installed plugins), suggests the best match, and prompts the user to add it.
  • Skill trial and connector setup: Helps the user try a bundled skill, then searches connector registry and recommends connectors relevant to the chosen role.
  • Use Case: A new team member configures Cowork in minutes by selecting their role, adding a recommended plugin, trying a sample workflow, and connecting email and docs for real-time context.

Quick Start

Help me set up Cowork for my role, install a recommended plugin, and suggest relevant connectors.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up Cowork plugins and connectors for a new user?▼

Cowork setup is handled through a guided onboarding process that walks you through role selection, plugin installation from the marketplace, a sample skill trial, and connector configuration for external tools. Each step pauses so you can complete the required action before moving forward.

What is role-based onboarding and how does it affect plugin recommendations?▼

Role-based onboarding uses a role picker tool to identify your function and then tailors plugin and connector recommendations to match that role. This ensures the suggested marketplace plugins and external tool connectors are relevant to your specific workflow needs.

Can I configure Cowork connectors for email and docs during initial setup?▼

Yes, you can configure connectors for external tools like email and docs during initial setup. The onboarding process searches the connector registry and recommends relevant connectors based on your selected role, pausing for you to complete each integration.

How do I find and install the right plugin from the Cowork marketplace?▼

The setup process searches the plugin marketplace, including items already installed, and suggests the best match for your role. You are then prompted to add the recommended plugin before proceeding to try a bundled skill.

Does the Cowork onboarding process work if I already have plugins installed?▼

Yes, the onboarding works for both new and returning users. The marketplace search includes already-installed plugins alongside available ones, so it recognizes your current setup and still recommends the best match for your selected role.

What's the best way to try a Cowork skill before fully committing to a plugin?▼

The onboarding flow includes a skill trial step where you try a bundled sample skill after installing a recommended plugin. This lets you experience the workflow firsthand before moving on to connector configuration with real data.
