Run the full DEFT AOI improvement loop for NVIDIA TAO VisualChangeNet / ChangeNet PCB inspection models: baseline evaluate, RCA, Cosmos AnomalyGen / AMP synthetic defects, k-NN mining, retraining, and deployment gating against a customer-defined primary metric and optional constraints. Use only when the request identifies an AOI / automated-optical-inspection, PCB-defect, VisualChangeNet, or ChangeNet workflow. Supports air-gapped/offline runs with pre-staged assets. Never infer AOI from…
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
# Skill: tao-run-deft-aoi > **Standalone install?** If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the `tao-setup` skill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery). ## Execution Contract Treat this as a disk-backed state machine, not as a prose recipe. 1. Preserve every explicit user value. `epoch 1` means `num_epochs=1` and `iteration 1` means `max_iterations=1`; a heuristic or spec default applies only when the user did not supply that parameter. Show the source of every run parameter (`user`, `spec`, or `default`) in the Pre-Flight Summary. Preserve the customer's metric name, operator, target, unit, evaluator, and constraints. The approved `metric_contract` is the source of truth for evaluation, checkpoint selection, completion, and reporting. 2. After the user approves the Summary, set `PYTHON=$(bash scripts/deft_python.sh)`, then initialize `deft_state.json` once with `"$PYTHON" scripts/init_deft_state.py`, passing Preflight's exact GPU model/memory, resolved `--network-mode`, activation source, and selected absolute Python. The resulting `execution_policy` is immutable run state. Never hand-author …

How to install
mdr add nvidia-tao/tao-skill-bank/tao-run-deft-aoi@sha256:7ea9fd09db49cb98The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
