Use this skill when the user is invoking `doca_telemetry_utils` on a host with DOCA installed — discovering the diagnostic-counter schema, translating counter names to binary Data IDs, validating per-device counter support before committing a DOCA Telemetry exporter config, or reverse-resolving a captured Data ID. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "doca_telemetry_utils" or "Data ID" — typical implicit phrasings include "my exporter ships but the collector sees nothing", "this metric silently drops downstream", "which counters does this BlueField expose", "translate this 0x... back to a counter name", "what do node / pcie_index / depth mean here", or "is this counter supported on this device before I commit it". Refuse and route elsewhere for developer-side collector / exporter library programming, DTS deployment, or DOCA install / repair — those belong to doca-telemetry, doca-public-knowledge-map, and doca-setup.

Description: <br>

Guides agents and operators through invoking doca_telemetry_utils to discover the diagnostic-counter schema, translate counter names to binary Data IDs, validate per-device counter support, and reverse-resolve captured Data IDs on a DOCA-installed host. <br>

This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. <br>

License/Terms of Use: <br>

Apache 2.0 AND CC-BY-4.0 <br>

Use Case: <br>

Developers, operators, and AI agents standing up or debugging a DOCA Telemetry exporter/collector pipeline who need to confirm the counter schema, validate per-device support, or translate between human-readable counter names and the binary Data IDs the exporter ships. <br>

Deployment Geography for Use: <br>

Global <br>

Requirements / Dependencies: <br>

Requires API Key or External Credential: [Not Specified] <br> Credential Type(s): [None identified] <br>

Do not include secrets in prompts/logs/output; use least-privilege credentials; rotate keys as appropriate. <br>

Known Risks and Mitigations: <br>

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

Evaluation Agents Used: <br>

  • Claude Code (aws/anthropic/bedrock-claude-opus-4-8) <br>
  • Codex (openai/openai/gpt-5.5) <br>

Evaluation Tasks: <br>

Evaluated against 4 evaluation tasks (3 positive skill-activation, 1 negative activation). <br>

Evaluation Metrics Used: <br>

Reported benchmark dimensions: <br>

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

Underlying evaluation signals used in this run: <br>

  • security: Checks for unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access. <br>
  • skill_execution: Verifies that the agent loaded the expected skill and workflow. <br>
  • skill_efficiency: Checks routing quality, decoy avoidance, and redundant tool usage. <br>
  • accuracy: Grades final-answer correctness against the reference answer. <br>
  • goal_accuracy: Checks whether the overall user task completed successfully. <br>
  • behavior_check: Verifies expected behavior steps, including safety expectations. <br>

Requires DOCA SDK installed at /opt/mellanox/doca on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 or RHEL/SLES) with the Telemetry optional component and a BlueField DPU visible to DOCA on a known PCI address. Invokes /opt/mellanox/doca/tools/doca_telemetry_utils; per-device probe typically requires elevated privileges.
