Add agent-ready vision capabilities — dense captioning, detection, search, alerting, summarization — to an agent or application through a customizable, self-contained vision stack built on the NVIDIA VSS Blueprint. Use this skill when a developer or agent wants to give their app vision: pick capabilities via guided intake ("build a vision agent", "add vision capabilities") or describe them in natural language ("create a profile for streaming dense captioning…
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
# Build Vision Agent `build-vision-ai` gives agents and developers **agent-ready vision capabilities through a customizable, self-contained application stack** built on the **NVIDIA VSS Blueprint**. A developer or agent adds vision to their application by selecting the capabilities they want (guided intake) or describing them in natural language, and the skill routes to a validated developer profile — or composes the smallest delta overlay on top of one — and deploys it. Use it whenever the user wants vision capabilities composed for them: deploying a stock profile, extending a running deployment, or building a lean custom combination. **Two ways in:** **guided intake** (state an open intent like "build a vision agent" / "add vision capabilities" and the skill walks you through capability selection) or **prompt-driven** (name the capability or profile directly). Both land on the same routing and composition flow. ## When to Use - Compose and deploy a self-contained vision application stack — a stock developer profile (`base`, `alerts`, `lvs`, `search`) or the `warehouse` industry profile — not a single microservice on its own …

How to install
mdr add nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization/vss-build-vision-ai@sha256:d75600a8f7f73decThe line at the top of this page pins the label v3.3.0-rc0, 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.
