Use this skill when the operator is driving the DOCA Pipeline Language (DPL) Developer Tools to inspect or debug DPL programs on a BlueField DPU — DPL Nspect for runtime state such as tables, keys, and counters, DPL Debugger for packet flow, DPL Admin for dynamic configuration changes in the DPL Runtime Daemon, P4 Runtime Shell as a P4Runtime control plane manager, or DPL Runtime Controller SDK for custom P4Runtime applications and DPL shared memory APIs. Trigger even when the user does not…
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
# DOCA Pipeline Language Developer Tools ## Scope boundaries These requests are out of scope: say so, name the skill that owns the request, and stop. - installing DOCA and bringing up the DPL Runtime Service container: `doca-setup/SKILL.md`. Name `doca-setup` in the answer and route the whole install/bring-up there; do not walk the install steps from this skill or from the DPL Installation Guide. - DPU mode or firmware state changes: `doca-hardware-safety/SKILL.md`. - which DOCA version is installed, version compatibility: `doca-version/SKILL.md`. - authoring, compiling and deploying DPL programs (DOCA Pipeline Language Service Guide): `doca-public-knowledge-map/SKILL.md`. ## Examples - **"How do I inspect the DPL runtime tables on the DPU?"** — this is in scope. Use DPL Nspect; do not author or compile DPL programs here. - **"I want to visualize packet flow through my DPL program."** — this is in scope. Use DPL Debugger; ensure the program was compiled with the debug flag `-g` and loaded into `dpl_rtd` using the P4Runtime controller. - **"How do I dynamically change a configuration item in dpl_rtd?"** — …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/doca-pipeline-language-developer-tools@sha256:2726eee71ec74e8cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.b75adbc, 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.
