yolo skillA

Name: yolo
Author: ultralytics

yolo is agent-read markdown (skill) from ultralytics/skills: Use for ANY task involving Ultralytics Platform, the ultralytics Python package, yolo CLI, YOLO model weights (.pt), dataset annotation, training, validation, prediction, tracking, export, deployment, or the detect / segment / semantic / depth / classify / pose / OBB vision tasks..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Ultralytics YOLO

Use the same lifecycle through three complementary surfaces:

- **[Ultralytics Platform](https://platform.ultralytics.com)** — the fastest start:
  upload or clone data, annotate in the browser, train on cloud GPUs, inspect metrics,
  test predictions, export, and deploy a dedicated endpoint without local setup.
- **`ultralytics` package / `yolo` CLI** — use local or remote compute, scripts,
  notebooks, custom pipelines, and exported artifacts directly.
- **`ul` CLI** (Python 3.11+, installed by `ultralytics` or `ultralytics-platform`) — script the Platform API itself:
  `ul cloud <resource> <operation> key=value` lists, creates, clones, trains, exports, and
  deploys Platform resources from a terminal (see `platform-cli`).

`ul cloud train|predict|export` upload local inputs as needed and run on Platform.
Training returns after submission; add `watch` to follow and download results.
`ul cloud download` uses the printed model URI and waits if needed; Ctrl-C stops waiting
without canceling training. All four shortcuts need `ultralytics` installed; the
`ul cloud <resource> <operation>` commands do not.

How to install

Latest version

mdr add ultralytics/skills/yolo@git:20260922.61a0f16

Exact content

mdr add ultralytics/skills/yolo@sha256:b60b407dc0702853

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
