Finetune a pretrained KERMT encoder on a labeled CSV. Validate the checkpoint and data, prepare features, and run containerized training. Use a local checkpoint or optionally download a pinned Hugging Face model bundle using HF_TOKEN if configured. Write model bundles, prepared data, logs, and trained models to user-selected host directories.
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
# kermt-finetune Finetune a pretrained KERMT encoder on a user-supplied labeled CSV. The skill is the workflow orchestrator: validate ckpt, validate data, prepare data, launch the runner detached, return a run directory + container name. ## Skill and runtime paths Set `SKILL_DIR` to the absolute path of this installed skill directory. Export `KERMT_REPO` as the absolute path to the KERMT checkout used for model execution. The bundled container helper mounts that checkout at `/workspace` and this skill at `/skill` (read-only). Commands inside the container use `/skill/scripts/`; defaults are bundled in `config/`. See [Released models](references/released-models.md) for checkpoint bundle requirements. ## Downloads and local outputs The optional released-model branch reads `config/released_model.json` for the Hugging Face repository, pinned revision, and filenames. The bundled `scripts/fetch_released_model.py` downloads the model bundle over HTTPS into the host directory the user selects. Public models work without credentials; if `HF_TOKEN` is set, the container helper forwards it for Hugging Face authentication. Prepared data, logs, and workflow results go into the chosen …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/kermt-finetune@sha256:bf157bd453528a9cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.2cd3507, 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.
