Polymath is a special skill that essentially makes the character better at communication and IT tasks by allowing two additional private chat channels and granting 1 
per day (with the ability to store 2). In turn, it makes them slightly less effective at manual tasks - all chance-based actions like repairing, ship/personal combat, or firefighting.
It has a unique synergy with 
IT Expert in that they both give the same special action points. A character with both skills will receive 3 per day, to a maximum of 6, which can be saved up for a burst of activity.
Bug: Apparently this supply is always maxed upon picking the second skill, rather than being increased by 2 or 4.
Affected actions
Apparently every action that involves a chance of success has that chance lowered by a relative -10%.
Confirm: Not tested so far.
Examples:
Additional effects
Allows up to five private communication channels instead of just three.
Notes
This skill was added in Episode 5.
