vss-summarize-video SKILL.md skillB

vss-summarize-video from nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization/vss-summarize-video@v3.3.0-rc0

Pins v3.3.0-rc0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when summarizing a recorded video through HITL-gated LVS, falling back to `vss vlm run` when LVS is not ready. Not for reports, archive search, or live RTSP captioning.

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

# VSS Summarize Video

## Instructions

- Before readiness checks or video preparation, reject summarization of any
  stream (RTSP/RTSPS URL or registered camera), including recorded time windows:
  **Live-stream summarization / report generation isn't supported.** Then stop;
  do not ingest, extract clips, invoke inference/fallback, or deploy captioning.
  Reject an explicitly identified stream/camera even if its URL is absent.
  For a registered sensor name/id (not a local file path, uploaded file, or
  direct recorded-video URL), first check its current type with only
  `vss vios list --sensor <name>`; never reuse an earlier file classification.
  Reject a `stream`; if the type is unclear or the lookup fails, report that
  limitation and stop. Local/uploaded files follow the recorded-video workflow,
  including Stage 2 registration when absent; do not classify their paths as sensors.
- Execute the five workflow stages below in order.
- Run API commands yourself; do not tell the user to run them.
- Use the required references at their named decision points.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization/vss-summarize-video@sha256:72e4f33ba95ee32a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v3.3.0-rc0, 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.
