First-time setup for Intel XPU/GPU hosts. Installs the Intel OMIX (Open Middleware Xe) stack — Level Zero, OpenCL, SYCL compiler, oneMKL/oneDNN — plus clinfo, xpu-smi, user groups (render), and Docker, then runs a post-setup verification gate (including sycl-ls). Prompts before each installation by default (use --auto for unattended). Also handles Battlemage (Arc Pro B60/B70) kernel/runtime prerequisites: nomodeset removal and kernel/runtime upgrade guidance — use check_battlemage_prerequisites.
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
<!-- Modified by intel/skills: upstream repository-relative paths rewritten to resolve where this skill installs. Provenance: .source.json --> # xpu-system-setup First-time system setup for Intel GPU/XPU workloads on a bare OS install. Detects what's already configured and only installs what's missing. This is a **standalone skill** — it has no dependencies on other skills and can be run independently. ## Source of Truth Everything in this skill about supported operating systems, supported GPUs, and Intel OMIX installation, upgrade, verification, and uninstallation procedures is derived from one live page: https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/installation-guides/installing-omix.html Treat every such fact in this file (tables, package names, supported codenames, the layer-by-layer instructions below) as a **cached summary, not the authority**. Before advising a user on any of these topics — what's supported, how to install, how to upgrade, how to verify, or how to uninstall — fetch that page and answer from its current content. If it has drifted from what's written here, say so and follow the live page. ## Install path: Intel OMIX …

How to install
mdr add intel/skills/xpu-system-setup@sha256:5a3c7e684c4bffa9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.7097c41, 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.
