Two agents keep a live picture of what people can do, and of what their roles are starting to need.
Skills & Upskilling agent
Builds skills profiles from role descriptions and CVs, reads internal and external signals, and proposes the skills a role is starting to need.
A skills admin validates every new skill.

How skills profiles are built
From role descriptions
Upload a role description. The agent drafts a skills profile from your framework, each skill with a criticality, as an unpublished draft.
From CVs
People upload their CV. The agent suggests matching skills, with a one-line reason for each, for a manager to approve.
From signals, months ahead
When a role starts to need something new, the agent proposes the skill with its evidence and lead time, before any annual review would.
Where a person decides
The agents propose. People decide. You set where each approval sits.
- Publishing a skills profileDrafts stay unpublished until someone reviews and publishes them.
- Approving claimed skillsSkills above Accessory level go to a manager before they count.
- Adding a new skillA new skill joins your framework only when a skills admin validates it.

Step 2 · Teach against it
Once a gap is confirmed, the agents draft the training from your own sources.
