# Routines and recipes

> Choose whether a routine, recipe, or skill is for you only or for everyone in the workspace, and what that changes.

A **routine** starts assistant work on its own: at a set time, or when a meeting summary is ready or approved. A **recipe** is a ready-made bundle of skills, connections, and routines that you add to an assistant in a few steps. A **skill** is a set of instructions an assistant follows.

Find routines on each assistant's settings page under **Settings > Assistants**. Add recipes under **Settings > Assistants > Recipes**, and manage skills under **Settings > Assistants > Skills**.

## Only you or everyone

When you create a routine, a recipe, or a skill, you choose who it is for under **Who can use it**:

| | **Only you** | **Everyone in** your workspace |
| - | - | - |
| Who can choose it | Every member | Administrators only |
| Floral data | What you can see | Only approved summaries and records everyone in the workspace can see |
| Accounts | Your accounts and team accounts | Team accounts only |
| Who sees the results | Only you | Every member of the workspace |

The label names your workspace, for example **Everyone in Sales**. For a skill, the choice only decides who can use the instructions. The data and account rows apply to routines and recipes.

## Routines for everyone

A routine for everyone works for the team, so it sees less than you do. It never uses anyone's own account, unapproved summaries, a personal calendar, or Intelligence suggestions.

Every member can read the results in Floral. The conversation shows **Shared with everyone in** your workspace. Members can't reply in it, because the assistant would then be working for one person inside shared work. Floral says **This conversation is shared and read-only here.** To follow up, start your own conversation.

Changes that a routine proposes still wait for approval, like any other change.

Routines that start when a meeting summary is ready or approved always run on your own meetings, for you only.

## Recipes for everyone

Only administrators can add a recipe for everyone. Each connection the recipe needs must then be a team account. Your own accounts can't fill it, because a routine for everyone never uses them. When no team account fits, the recipe asks you to ask an administrator to add one.

If a required connection is missing, the recipe's routines start paused. They resume once every required connection is in place.

## When the owner leaves

* Routines for everyone that the person owned are paused, not deleted. They stay in the list for an administrator to handle.
* The person's own routines, skills, and conversations are deleted.

## Limits

Each person can have 10 routines, and a workspace can have 50. Paused routines count toward both limits.

See [Your account and team accounts](/product/assistant-connections) for how connections work.
