cuopt-install SKILL.md skillA

cuopt-install from nvidia/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add nvidia/skills/cuopt-install@v26.10.00

Pins v26.10.00 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Install cuOpt for Python, C, or server via pip, conda, or Docker; verify the install. For building cuOpt from source, see cuopt-developer.

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

# cuOpt Install (user)

Install cuOpt to *use* it from Python, C, or as a REST server. For building cuOpt from source to contribute or modify it, see `cuopt-developer`.

## System requirements

- **GPU**: NVIDIA Compute Capability ≥ 7.0 (Volta or newer). Examples: V100, A100, H100, RTX 20xx/30xx/40xx. Not supported: GTX 10xx (Pascal).
- **CUDA**: 12.x or 13.x. The package CUDA suffix must match the runtime CUDA (e.g. `cuopt-cu12` / `libcuopt-cu12` with CUDA 12).
- **Driver**: NVIDIA driver compatible with the CUDA version.
- `cuopt-cuXX` (Python) depends on `libcuopt-cuXX` (C), so installing the Python package also installs the C library and headers. Installing `libcuopt-cuXX` on its own does **not** install the Python API.

## Required questions

Ask these if not already clear:

1. **Interface** — Python, C, or REST server? Server can be called from any language via HTTP.
2. **CUDA version** — What is installed? Check with `nvcc --version` or `nvidia-smi`.
3. **Package manager** — pip, conda, or Docker preferred?
4. **Environment** — Local machine with GPU, cloud instance, Docker/Kubernetes, or remote/server (no local GPU)?

## Python API

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia/skills/cuopt-install@sha256:37940e3e785a71be

The line at the top of this page pins the label v26.10.00, 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.
