Skills are portable instruction sets that teach AI agents how to use NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries, AI Blueprints, and platform tools correctly. This repository is a catalog: skills are maintained in their respective product repos and mirrored here daily via an automated sync pipeline. We are making NVIDIA skills available publicly and building this catalog in the open; see the Roadmap for what is planned next.

Quickstart

Install NVIDIA skills with the default skills CLI flow:

npx skills add nvidia/skills

The CLI runs through npx and prompts you to choose a skill and install destination. You do not need to clone this repo or copy skill folders by hand.

The skill is available the next time your agent loads skills and encounters a relevant task. For example, ask your agent to "solve a linear programming problem with cuOpt" and the skill guides it through the cuOpt Python API.

Install One Skill Without Prompts

Use this when you already know the skill name and want to skip prompts.

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python --yes

Replace cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python with any skill name from the Skill Catalog.

Install for a Specific Agent

Use --agent to target a specific AI coding agent. These are common client targets; for the full list of supported clients, see the skills CLI Supported Agents table.

Claude Code

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python --agent claude-code

Codex

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python --agent codex

Cursor

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python --agent cursor

Kiro

npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python --agent kiro-cli

Use --agent more than once to install the same skill into multiple agents.

npx skills add nvidia/skills \
  --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api-python \
  --agent claude-code \
  --agent codex \
  --agent cursor \
  --agent kiro-cli

Browse the Catalog

Use this when you want to see available NVIDIA skills before installing anything.

npx skills add nvidia/skills --list

For non-interactive installs, global installs, agent-specific installs, updates, removals, and fallback manual copying, see Advanced installation.
