๐ Docs: docs.nvidia.com/skills ย ยทย ๐บ Livestream: From Vulnerable to Verified ย ยทย ๐ Blog: NVIDIA Verified Agent Skills: Capability Governance for AI Agents
Skills are portable instruction sets that teach AI agents how to use NVIDIA software optimally: Physical AI and robotics workflows, simulation, CUDA-X libraries, RAG and AI Blueprints, and platform tools. This repository is a catalog: skills are maintained in their respective product repos, and mirrored here daily via an automated sync pipeline. Skills are being added continuously, so check back for updates. We are building this infrastructure in the open, and contributions are welcome. See the Roadmap for what is planned next.
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.
Requires a current
skillsCLI (v1.5.16 or newer). Installing vianpx skills@latest add nvidia/skillsalways uses the latest. On older CLIs (v1.5.15 and earlier), skills may install but not appear in Claude Code โ see Troubleshooting.
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. In Claude Code, run /reload-skills to load newly installed skills in your current session.
Use this when you already know the skill name and want to skip prompts.
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --yes
Replace cuopt-numerical-optimization-api with any skill name from the Skill Catalog.
Use --agent to target a specific AI coding agent. Initially, we'll support common client targets, expanding the list over time. For the full list of clients supported by the spec, see the skills CLI Supported Agents table.
Claude Code
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --agent claude-code
Codex
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --agent codex
Snowflake CoCo
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --agent cortex
Cursor
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --agent cursor
Kiro
npx skills add nvidia/skills --skill cuopt-numerical-optimization-api --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 \
--agent claude-code \
--agent codex \
--agent cursor \
--agent kiro-cli
New skills land continuously, and existing ones are revised, renamed, or consolidated as the catalog evolves. Refresh what you have installed with:
npx skills update
Run it interactively and the CLI also flags skills that were removed or merged upstream (for example, when several skills are consolidated into one) and offers to remove the stale local copies. Use npx skills list to see what is installed and npx skills check to preview what is out of date first.
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.
Where to file an issue depends on what's broken:
Per-product source repo links:
For issues with this catalog repo itself (README, structure, listing a new product): open an issue here.
Every published skill ships with a detached OMS signature (skill.oms.sig). The sync pipeline drops any skill missing the required artifacts before publishing, so every skill in the catalog carries:
SKILL.md โ the skill instructions consumed by the agentskill-card.md โ skill identity and governance cardskill.oms.sig โ detached OMS signature (verifiable against nv-agent-root-cert.pem)evals/evals.json, evals/*.json, eval/*.json, or benchmark/evals.jsonBENCHMARK.md โ generated benchmark report capturing verifiable uplift dataVerify a skill against the NVIDIA trust anchor nv-agent-root-cert.pem:
pip install model-signing
model_signing verify certificate SKILL_DIR \
--signature SKILL_DIR/skill.oms.sig \
--certificate_chain nv-agent-root-cert.pem \
--ignore_unsigned_files
A successful verification confirms that the skill contents have not been modified since signing by NVIDIA.
See Verify Signed Agent Skills for signature layout, the trust pipeline, and policy options.

FAQ
nvidia-skills is a Claude Code plugin with 200 hand-picked skills for development work, indexed on Flowy. Install it with the command on its page. It includes nvidia-skill-finder, accelerated-computing-cudf, aiq-deploy. Its skills do not fire on their own yet. Request auto-invocation to have Flowy route them as you prompt. Free and open source.
