💠 Opal shines on in Skills! 💠
When we launched Opal in Google Labs, it was an experiment to learn how you customize your workflows. Your incredible creativity taught us so much — first inspiring Gems made by Labs, and today, supporting the global launch of skills in @GeminiApp! ✨
Skills are a faster way to automate repetitive tasks and save custom instructions right in chat - built from the learnings we had from Opal. As skills roll out globally, we will be saying a bittersweet farewell to Opal. The experiment will be shutting down on Nov 17, 2026.
Whether you built mini-apps on https://t.co/YOHh8P89yg or tried Gems in Gemini, thank you for shaping the future of customizable AI. Opal lives on in every skill you build next. 💙
CC the entire fam 🤝!
Today, we’re announcing the new CC – an AI agent built for families to spend less time on logistics and more time together.
You can now:
👤 Add up to 5 members to your CC agent
☀️ Start mornings aligned with a shared "Your Day Ahead" brief email
🗓️ Autosync schedules & to-dos with a shared Google Calendar and Tasks
💬 Coordinate in Google Chat with CC to offload relevant tasks (ie., crafting weekly meal plans, school supply shopping lists, etc)
📝 Delegate paperwork (ie., permission slips, forms, and more) for CC to complete under your direction
📌 Keep tabs on the details – CC remembers what applies to everyone (ie., family grocery lists, favorite restaurants) versus what applies to one person (ie., dietary restrictions, local timezones)
Ready to keep everybody on the same page? Join the waitlist or upgrade your existing CC (US only, 18+): https://t.co/6Id5GRBrVc
