yolo-export skillA

yolo-export is agent-read markdown (skill) from ultralytics/skills: Use when exporting or deploying Ultralytics YOLO models in Platform or code — the Platform Export tab and yolo export/model.export() for ONNX, TensorRT, CoreML, Core AI, OpenVINO, LiteRT, NCNN, ExecuTorch, and NPUs (RKNN, QNN, Hailo, Ascend, IMX, Axelera, DeepX), FP16/INT8 quantization, benchmarking, and non-Python runtimes. For inference with .pt weights or Platform endpoints, see yolo-inference..

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

# Export, quantization & deployment

## Fastest route: export in Platform

Open a completed model's **Export** tab, select one of the 20 formats, configure its
arguments, and click **Start Export**. Platform runs CPU exports directly and asks for a
target GPU where the format requires one (notably TensorRT); download the artifact when
the job completes. Match TensorRT's selected GPU family and software environment to the
deployment target, just as with a local engine build.

Use Platform when you do not want to install each exporter toolchain locally. Use the
Python/CLI path below for custom calibration, repeatable automation, local hardware
builds, or immediate parity validation. See
[Platform model export](https://docs.ultralytics.com/platform/train/models#export-model).

## Quickstart

```python
from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO("runs/detect/train/weights/best.pt")
path = model.export(format="onnx")  # returns the exported file/dir path
```

```bash
yolo export model=best.pt format=onnx
```

Exports load straight back into `YOLO()` for predict/val — same API:

```python
model = YOLO("best.onnx")  # or best.engine, best_openvino_model/, ...
```
…

How to install

Latest version
mdr add ultralytics/skills/yolo-export@git:20260904.9c3b8ec
Exact content
mdr add ultralytics/skills/yolo-export@sha256:fe071aa1472c295f

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.
