Store — Community

The Community section of the Horizon Store is where organizations and developers share their custom-built skills, agents, and workflow templates with the broader Horizon ecosystem. It is a collaborative space that extends the platform’s capabilities beyond officially published content.

What the Community Offers

Community Skills

Skills built by other Horizon users to solve niche or industry-specific problems. These fill gaps where an official skill may not exist.

Community Agents

Pre-configured agents designed for specific use cases, often with opinionated behavioral instructions based on real-world experience.

Workflow Templates

Multi-step workflow blueprints that show how to chain multiple agents and skills together for complex automation scenarios.

Discussion and Feedback

Each community submission has a discussion thread where you can ask questions, share tips, and provide feedback to the author.

Browsing Community Content

Navigate to Store > Community to explore shared content. The community marketplace supports:

• Search — find content by name, description, keyword, or author.
• Category filters — narrow results by type (Skill, Agent, Template) and by business function.
• Tags — community content is tagged with relevant keywords (e.g., invoicing, lead-scoring, slack-bot).
• Sort options — most popular, most recent, highest rated, or trending.

Each listing shows:

• Title, description, and type (skill, agent, or template).
• Author name and organization (if public).
• Install count and community rating.
• Compatibility information — required connections and platform version.

Installing Community Content

1. Click on a community listing to open its detail page.
2. Review the description, requirements, and any community discussion.
3. Check the Trust and Verification section (see below).
4. Click Install.
5. The content is added to your workspace. For agents and templates, follow the setup wizard to configure connections and department assignments.

Caution

Community content is created by third parties and is not officially verified by Horizon unless marked as Verified. Review the content’s description, ratings, and discussion before installing, especially for skills that interact with sensitive data.

Trust and Verification

Community listings have trust indicators:

Badge	Meaning
Verified	The submission has been reviewed and tested by the Horizon team.
Popular	Installed by more than 100 organizations.
Active	The author has updated the content within the last 90 days.
Unverified	No formal review has been conducted. Use at your own discretion.

You can filter the community view to show only Verified content if you prefer a higher assurance level.

Contributing to the Community

Any Horizon organization can publish content to the community:

1. Build and test your skill, agent, or template in your workspace.
2. Navigate to Store > Community > Publish.
3. Select the content you want to share.
4. Write a title, description, and usage instructions.
5. Add relevant tags and select a category.
6. Choose a visibility level: Public (visible to all) or Unlisted (only accessible via direct link).
7. Submit for review. Verified badge submissions go through a review process. Standard submissions are published immediately.

Tip

Write thorough descriptions and usage instructions when publishing. Community content with clear documentation gets significantly more installs and better ratings.

Community Guidelines

When participating in the community, follow these guidelines:

• Provide accurate descriptions — clearly state what your content does, what connections it requires, and any limitations.
• Keep content updated — if a connection API changes or a skill breaks, update your submission promptly.
• Respect intellectual property — only publish content you have the right to share.
• Be constructive in discussions — feedback should be helpful and respectful.
• Report issues — flag content that is malicious, broken, or violates community guidelines.

Community Discussion

Each listing has a discussion tab where users can:

• Ask the author questions about setup or usage.
• Share tips and best practices for customization.
• Report bugs or compatibility issues.
• Suggest feature improvements.

Authors receive notifications when new discussion messages are posted on their content.
