HSDK · Agent Skill

Conda

Install Holoscan SDK v4.3+ via Conda in a CUDA 13 environment. Use for Conda installs; redirect CUDA 12 hosts to container/wheel.

Install

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill holoscan-install-conda

Add --agent cursor, --agent claude-code, --agent codex, or --agent kiro-cli to target a specific agent.

Deployment Geography for Use

Global

Known Risks and Mitigations

Risk: Review before execution as proposals could introduce incorrect or misleading guidance into skills.
Mitigation: Review and scan skill before deployment.

Evaluation Agents Used

  • Claude Code (claude-code)
  • Codex (codex)

Evaluation Tasks

Evaluated against 4 evaluation tasks (3 positive, 1 negative) with 2 attempts per task.

Evaluation Metrics Used

Reported benchmark dimensions:

  • Security: Checks whether skill-assisted execution avoids unsafe behavior such as secret leakage, destructive commands, or unauthorized access.
  • Correctness: Checks whether the agent follows the expected workflow and produces the correct final output.
  • Discoverability: Checks whether the agent loads the skill when relevant and avoids using it when irrelevant.
  • Effectiveness: Checks whether the agent performs measurably better with the skill than without it.
  • Efficiency: Checks whether the agent uses fewer tokens and avoids redundant work.

Underlying evaluation signals used in this run:

  • security: Checks for unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access.
  • skill_execution: Verifies that the agent loaded the expected skill and workflow.
  • skill_efficiency: Checks routing quality, decoy avoidance, and redundant tool usage.
  • accuracy: Grades final-answer correctness against the reference answer.
  • goal_accuracy: Checks whether the overall user task completed successfully.
  • behavior_check: Verifies expected behavior steps, including safety expectations.
  • token_efficiency: Compares token usage with and without the skill.
