Handle Holoscan SDK 5.x Conda installation requests: explain 5.0 package unavailability, check later releases, and select a supported installation method.
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
# Holoscan 5.0 and Conda This skill checks Conda availability for the requested Holoscan SDK 5.x release. SDK 5.0 has no Conda package. For later releases, it follows the release's Conda instructions when support is documented and matching packages are published. Otherwise, it offers container, Debian, wheel, or source alternatives while preserving the requested SDK version and C++ or Python goal. Conda-forge Holoscan 4.x packages are a different release line and cannot satisfy a 5.x installation request. 1. Establish the requested SDK release. For 5.0, explain that Conda installation is unavailable; do not install Miniforge, create an environment, or run a Holoscan Conda solve. For a later release, follow its documented Conda method only if that release explicitly supports it and the matching packages are published. If availability is unknown, report the uncertainty and offer the verified alternatives below rather than inventing an installation command. 2. When Conda is unavailable or unconfirmed, preserve the requested SDK version and the user's C++ or Python goal. Offer the matching skill when available, or use the release's installation guide directly: …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/holoscan-install-conda@sha256:56607a92b6690823The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
