Description: <br>
Guides Holoscan SDK installation: inspects the host, assesses platform compatibility, recommends an install method, and delegates to the matching install skill. <br>
This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. <br>
Owner
NVIDIA <br>
License/Terms of Use: <br>
Apache-2.0 <br>
Use Case: <br>
Developers and engineers setting up the Holoscan SDK on supported NVIDIA platforms, automating host inspection and install-method selection. <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<br>codex<br>
Evaluation Tasks: <br>
Evaluated against 4 evaluation tasks (3 positive, 1 negative) using the NVSkills-Eval external profile in the astra-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>token_efficiency: Compares token usage with and without the skill. <br>
