You can trigger skills manually through the Innate Controller App, bypassing the AI agent. This is useful for testing, debugging, or directly controlling the robot.

​
Using the Skills Tab for Code-Defined Skills

  1. Open the Innate Controller App
  2. Navigate to the Skills tab -> Digital Skills.
  3. Select a skill then press Execute
The robot will execute the skill without going through the agent’s reasoning loop. For skills that take parameters, the app shows input fields for each argument.

​
Directly in Manual Control for Policy-Defined Skills

  1. Go to the Home tab
  2. Press Manual
  3. Select a skill in the dropdown then press the ▶️ button.
The robot will execute the skill without going through the agent’s reasoning loop.
