Use this skill to read DOCA hardware-counter events from a `doca_dev` through the per-domain Telemetry reader libraries: `doca_telemetry_pcc`, `_dpa`, `_diag`, `_adp_retx`, `_phy`, and `_pci`. It covers capability checks, context creation, startup, and per-domain reads or samples. Trigger for implicit requests such as "read PCC counters from my BlueField app", "sample DPA counter exports", or "expose PHY, PCI, or DIAG counters from this doca_dev". This is the counter-reader surface, not a NetFlow, IPFIX, or local-socket collector. Route publishing and export to `doca-telemetry-exporter`; route deployed DOCA Telemetry Service (DTS), collectors, and plain stdout logging elsewhere.

License/Terms of Use: <br>

Apache 2.0 AND CC-BY-4.0 <br>

Use Case: <br>

Developers and engineers building applications that read DOCA hardware counters from a doca_dev through one or more of the six per-domain DOCA Telemetry reader libraries on BlueField DPU or ConnectX NIC hardware. <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) in k8s-sandbox environment. <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>
