Install and verify the Holoscan SDK 5.x CUDA 13 development container after checking release availability and host compatibility.
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.x Development Container ## 1. Check the release and platform This skill targets **Holoscan SDK 5.x**. Select the requested 5.x release before choosing artifacts. Read its release notes and the matching [SDK installation guide](https://docs.nvidia.com/holoscan/sdk-user-guide/setup/sdk-installation). Select the 5.x documentation version; an unversioned page may describe 4.x. For an unreleased checkout, use its `docs/sdk_installation.mdx` and `DEVELOP.md`. Early Access binary commands describe planned artifacts, so confirm publication for the exact release before installing. If unavailable, explain that status and offer `holoscan-install-source`; keep the requested 5.x version. The 5.0 artifact set targets CUDA 13 and dGPU systems on x86_64 or arm64. Native packages use Ubuntu 24.04; wheels use glibc 2.39 and regular CPython 3.12–3.14. Check the selected release for changes to that matrix. There is no CUDA 12 variant or separate Tegra/iGPU artifact in this set. A driver reporting CUDA 12 support needs a compatibility assessment or driver upgrade before a CUDA 13 installation; the `nvidia-smi` CUDA field is a driver capability, not …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/holoscan-install-container@sha256:2779c331e4cb0671The 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.
