doca-rdmi SKILL.md skillA

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

Install it, pinned
mdr add nvidia/skills/doca-rdmi@git:20261014.bbb601a

Pins git:20261014.bbb601a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA RDMI (RDMA Initiator) programming — picking doca-rdmi vs doca-rdma for an accelerator-initiated one-sided RDMA flow, standing up a doca_rdmi_connection or doca_rdmi_poster, attaching a doca_dpa_completion or doca_verbs_cq before doca_ctx_start(), retrieving the DPA-side handle for a DPA kernel, auditing whether a doca_rdmi_* symbol is EXPERIMENTAL on this DOCA, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* returns from RDMI calls. Trigger even when the user does…

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

# DOCA RDMA Initiator

## Examples

- **"DPA kernel needs to post RDMA writes to a remote responder."**
  — this is in scope. Stay on `doca_rdmi_*`; do not rewrite it as
  host-CPU `doca-rdma`.
- **"Function not found on doca_rdmi_* at link time."** — audit
  whether the symbol is EXPERIMENTAL on this DOCA before inventing
  a fallback API.

## Instructions

Follow Loading order below. Open the tasks companion for configure /
build / debug. Open the capabilities companion for RDMI vs RDMA and
the experimental-symbol rule. Do not open every companion file.

**Where to start:** This skill assumes DOCA is already installed and
the user is doing **hands-on RDMI work** on a host or BlueField with
the DOCA package set that ships the `doca-rdmi` library. Open
the tasks companion if the user wants to *do* something
(install / configure / build / modify / run / test / debug / use);
open the capabilities companion when the question is
*what can RDMI express on this version* — the object model, the
DPA-side handle types, the relationship to `doca-rdma`, the
EXPERIMENTAL-tag policy, and the safety overlay.

**End-to-end "walk me through doca-rdmi" questions are answerable

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia/skills/doca-rdmi@sha256:0aaadc3187cb0b4b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.bbb601a, 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.
