Use to drive `vss vios` for sensor list, timelines, clips, snapshots, and add/delete of video or stream sources, and the VIOS REST API only for what that CLI does not cover (sensor info/status/settings, storage and recorder status, WebRTC, the RTSP proxy, network scan, device settings, bytes to disk, the NvStreamer API), when the caller names a REST endpoint, or to debug VIOS. Also provisions a source into an Agent-backed or headless deployment, which the deployment fans out to the perception…
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
# VIOS Operations ## Purpose Manage VIOS video input/output and storage with `vss vios`: sensors, streams, uploads, snapshots, clip URLs, and timelines. NvStreamer stays a separate REST API, used only for an explicit synthetic RTSP request. ## When to Use - Drive `vss vios` — add or delete a video file or RTSP stream, list sensors, show configured sensors, get a snapshot or clip URL (`media_url`), or upload a video file - Serve test/sample videos as synthetic RTSP via NvStreamer, or drive the NvStreamer → `vss vios add --type stream` handoff - Provision a source into a configured deployment so its notification receivers fan it out to RT-CV / RT-Embed / RT-VLM Not for VLM inference or ad-hoc visual Q&A (`vss-ask-video`), semantic search (`vss-search-archive`), narrative summaries (`vss-summarize-video`), or reading analytics/incidents (`vss-query-analytics`). ## Prerequisites - The `vss` CLI on `PATH`. The OpenClaw and Hermes harness images ship it; anywhere else, install it from the same checkout as this skill so the CLI and the skill match: `uv tool install <checkout>/libs/vss/cli`. …

How to install
mdr add nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization/vss-manage-video-io-storage@sha256:f77f83c30fdc8550The 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.
