holoscan-module-lifecycle from nvidia/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Develop external Holoscan Modules with the Holoscan CLI and use them in Holoscan applications: scaffold, test, Python bindings, DEB/WHEEL packaging, and clean-consumer proof.
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 Module lifecycle ## Purpose Take a reusable Holoscan Module from layout and API contract through producer, consumer, and clean artifact-install proof. Use `uv run holoscan` in a standalone module, or `holoscan` in its activated pip environment. A Holoscan Module extends `holoscan::core` with operators, resources, and helpers for a domain capability, plus examples and tests. Core modules ship with the SDK; external modules live in their own repositories, and applications, including those in nvidia-holoscan/holoscan-applications, consume their installed packages. This skill covers external Holoscan Module development and consumption. For SDK core-module implementation, follow the selected SDK checkout’s `modules/DEVELOPER.md` and module-specific guide; do not apply the external CLI template or packaging workflow to SDK core modules. ## Inputs Required: the API contract, workspace, identities, SDK floor, license, maintainer, package formats, and acceptance checks, from the request or an authoritative repository source. Optional: a consuming application. If consequential release metadata remains unknown, stop before scaffolding or packaging rather than guessing. …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/holoscan-module-lifecycle@sha256:d10b257b9af5f9c9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.781a6c2, 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.
