Use this skill when deploying, operating, integrating, or customizing the VSS RT-Embed Video Embedding microservice. Covers standalone Docker Compose deployment, the `/v1` REST API for text/video embeddings and live streams, Redis/Kafka/OTel integration, troubleshooting, and bring-your-own-model (BYOM) custom embedding backends, with VideoPrism as an example. Do not use for RT-CV, RT-VLM, VSS Agent, or general VSS deployment work that does not include RT-Embed.

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 Video Embedding (RT-Embed)

Use this skill for the RT-Embed video embedding microservice, including the
standard Cosmos-Embed1 deployment path and custom/BYOM embedding model work.

**Trigger phrases:** `vss-deploy-video-embedding`, `RT-Embed`, `rtvi-embed`,
`video embedding service`, `Cosmos-Embed1`, `embed live stream`, `embed video
file`, `generate video embeddings`, `text embedding for video search`,
`RT-Embed BYOM`, `VideoPrism embed`, `custom embed model`,
`MODEL_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH`, `MODEL_REPOSITORY_SCRIPT_PATH`, `bring your own
embedding model`.

**Do not use this skill** for RT-CV, RT-VLM, VSS Agent, or general VSS
deployment work unless the request deploys, operates, integrates, or customizes
RT-Embed.

## When to Use

- Deploy, size, upgrade, roll back, or tear down standalone RT-Embed (Cosmos-Embed1 or a custom/BYOM model)
- Call RT-Embed's `/v1` API for text/video embeddings, live streams, model listing, health, metrics
- Wire RT-Embed into another service with Redis, Kafka, OpenTelemetry, auth, or storage
- Add or validate a custom/BYOM embedding backend
- Debug RT-Embed readiness, model/cache startup, or Redis/Kafka reachability

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia-ai-blueprints/video-search-and-summarization/vss-deploy-video-embedding@sha256:6d6df57dcb9284f4

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.
