cdf-anomalygen SKILL.md skillA
cdf-anomalygen from nvidia/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add nvidia/skills/cdf-anomalygen@v1.2.0Pins v1.2.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when running the CDF AnomalyGen pipeline over a defect dataset — mask placement, fine-tuning, synthetic defect-image generation (SDG), evaluation, quality refinement, and pseudo-labeling — even when the user names only one stage.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Skill: cdf-anomalygen
## Purpose
AnomalyGen fine-tunes the frozen **Cosmos** base into an **anomaly-generation** model: given a clean
image + defect mask, it paints a realistic defect into that region (synthetic data for detectors).
Pick a mode, collect its params, run the steps — **all commands from the repo root.**
## When to Use This Skill
Use for the CDF AnomalyGen pipeline over a defect dataset — any single stage (mask placement,
fine-tuning, generation, evaluation, refinement, or pseudo-labeling) or the full run.
- "Run the AnomalyGen pipeline on phone_screen"
- "Fine-tune an anomaly-generation model for PCB defects"
- "Generate 25 synthetic PCB anomaly images"
- "Place defect masks", "evaluate quality", or "pseudo-label the generated defects"
Do not use this skill for generic image generation, or for synthetic data that isn't defect images
built from the `{texture}/{defect}` clean-image + defect-mask contract.
## Prerequisites
- A **CUDA GPU** and the project's built env (native `.venv` or the Docker image).
- **Hugging Face auth** — run `hf auth login` — plus network access; the downloader fetches
the model checkpoints.

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/cdf-anomalygen@sha256:ab65e049dfb57d16The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
