Gemini sidebar in Chrome for desktop is getting “Skills” for repetitive prompts.
If you use the same prompt repeatedly, you can now save it as a Skill, so you don’t have to retype it entirely again.
In addition to custom Skills, you can also browse the set of available Skills inside Chrome.
Google has a clear mission: to make Gemini accessible through as many touchpoints as possible. And as one of the most-used Google products, Google rightly deserves a spot on that table. Justifying its prominence, Google added Gemini to Chrome on desktop last May, and then enhanced it with a sidebar that not only allows quicker access to Gemini but also unlocks some agentic browsing features.
Today, Google is further improving Gemini in Chrome by making the existing functionality more efficient.
