What's on the bench.
Deepstream Dev
NVIDIA DeepStream SDK 9.0 development with Python pyservicemaker API. Use when building video analytics pipelines, GStreamer-based video processing, TensorRT inference integration, object detection/tracking, or Kafka/message broker integration.
Data Designer
Use when the user wants to create a dataset, generate synthetic data, or build a data generation pipeline.
Dali Dynamic Mode
DALI imperative dynamic mode (`nvidia.dali.experimental.dynamic`, ndd): use when working on ndd code or migrating pipelines; skip pipeline-only tasks.
Cupynumeric Parallel Data Load
Load a sharded, on-disk dataset (sharded .npy, Parquet/Arrow, raw binary, sharded HDF5, custom layouts) into a distributed cuPyNumeric ndarray via a manual partition + leaf @task launch with CPU/OMP/GPU variants. Use when no single-call loader fits, including when per-shard row counts differ across files. Prefer cupynumeric.load or legate.io.hdf5.from_file when they apply.
Cupynumeric Migration Readiness
Pre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.
Cupynumeric Install
Install and verify cuPyNumeric for Python — requirements, commands, verification. Source builds are out of scope.
Cupynumeric Hdf5
Read and write large cuPyNumeric arrays to HDF5 with Legate's parallel, distributed HDF5 I/O (legate.io.hdf5: to_file, from_file, from_file_batched). Use when a developer needs to save a cuPyNumeric array to an .h5/.hdf5 file, load an HDF5 dataset into a distributed cuPyNumeric array, read a large HDF5 dataset in chunks, hand arrays to an HPC pipeline as a single file, or accelerate HDF5 disk I/O with GPUDirect Storage (GDS). Do not use it for Parquet/cuDF/raw-binary or other sharded/custom layouts (see the cupynumeric-parallel-data-load skill), Zarr or object-store/S3 output, .npz or pickled archives, plain h5py without cuPyNumeric, or pure array compute such as FFT, matmul, or reductions.
Cuopt Skill Evolution
After solving a non-trivial problem, detect generalizable learnings and propose skill updates. Always active — applies to every interaction.
Cuopt Server Common
cuOpt REST server — what it does and how requests flow. Domain concepts; no deploy or client code.
Cuopt Server API Python
cuOpt REST server — start server, endpoints, Python/curl client examples. Use when the user is deploying or calling the REST API.
Cuopt Routing Formulation
Vehicle routing (VRP, TSP, PDP) — problem types and data requirements. Domain concepts; no API or interface.
Cuopt Routing API Python
Vehicle routing (VRP, TSP, PDP) with cuOpt — Python API only. Use when the user is building or solving routing in Python.
Cuopt Numerical Optimization Formulation
LP, MILP, QP — concepts, problem-text parsing, and formulation patterns (parameters, constraints, decisions, objective). Concepts only; no API.
Cuopt Numerical Optimization API Python
Solve LP, MILP, QP (beta) with cuOpt Python API — linear/quadratic objectives, integer variables, scheduling, portfolio, least squares.
Cuopt Numerical Optimization API CLI
LP, MILP, and QP (beta) with cuOpt — CLI only (MPS files, cuopt_cli). Use when the user is solving LP, MILP, or QP from MPS via command line.
Cuopt Numerical Optimization API C
LP, MILP, and QP (beta) with cuOpt — C API only. Use when the user is embedding LP, MILP, or QP in C/C++.
Cuopt Install
Install cuOpt for Python, C, or server via pip, conda, or Docker; verify the install. For building cuOpt from source, see cuopt-developer.
Cuopt Developer
Modify, build, test, debug, and contribute to NVIDIA cuOpt (C++/CUDA, Python, server, CI). Use for solver internals, PRs, DCO, and code conventions.
Cufolio
Use when a user asks to build, optimize, backtest, rebalance, or analyze a stock portfolio with Mean-CVaR, efficient frontiers, scenario generation, or NVIDIA cuOpt.
Cudaq Guide
CUDA-Q onboarding guide for installation, test programs, GPU simulation, QPU hardware, and quantum applications.
Accelerated Computing Cudf
Official NVIDIA-authored guidance for NVIDIA cuDF GPU DataFrames, pandas acceleration, dask-cuDF, ETL, joins, groupby, CSV/Parquet I/O, nullable semantics, and multi-GPU DataFrame workloads.
Physical AI Neural Reconstruction
Router for NVIDIA NuRec/NRE: USDZ rendering, NCore conversion, 3DGS, gRPC sensor sim, PhysicalAI HF datasets. Do NOT use for SimReady or infra setup.
Nemoclaw User Get Started
Installs NemoClaw, launches a sandbox, and runs the first agent prompt. Use when onboarding, installing, or launching a NemoClaw sandbox for the first time. Trigger keywords - nemoclaw quickstart, install nemoclaw openclaw sandbox, nemohermes quickstart, hermes agent nemoclaw, run hermes openshell sandbox, nemoclaw prerequisites, nemoclaw supported platforms, nemoclaw hardware software, nemoclaw windows wsl2 setup, nemoclaw install windows docker desktop.
Dynamo Router Starter
Start or patch Dynamo router modes and run router endpoint smoke checks. Use for round-robin, KV-aware, least-loaded, or device-aware routing setup; use recipe-runner for recipe deployment and troubleshoot for failure diagnosis.
