doca-mgmt
From the author
Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA Management programming against BlueField / ConnectX devices — standing up a management or representor context (doca_mgmt_dev_ctx / doca_mgmt_dev_rep_ctx), querying device caps (data-direct, caps-general), toggling congestion-control global status, modifying diagnostics-data, setting ICM quotas, or issuing a raw firmware command via doca_mgmt_raw_cmd with the right scope (CONFIGURATION / DEBUG_READ_ONLY / DEBUG_WRITE / DEBUG_WRITE_FULL). Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA Management" — typical implicit phrasings include "fleet tool that walks every BlueField and reads device state", "toggle data-direct on a VF", "set an ICM quota per representor", "send a raw firmware command from C", "DOCA_ERROR_IO_FAILED from raw_cmd", or "fwctl ioctl is failing". Refuse and route elsewhere for mlxconfig direct operation, BFB / firmware reflash, streaming telemetry, doca_caps CLI snapshots, or DOCA install itself — those belong to other skills.

- doca-commonNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill whenever the user is doing hands-on DOCA programming on a BlueField DPU or ConnectX NIC and needs the foundation primitives every per-library context rests on — walking the doca_ctx lifecycle, discovering doca_dev / doca_devinfo and gating on doca_*_cap_* before trusting a feature, wiring doca_mmap / doca_buf_inventory / doca_buf for zero-copy I/O across libraries, driving doca_pe for completions, or DOCA Log's two-tier (--sdk-log-level vs app-side) model. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA Common" — typical implicit phrasings include "my tasks submit but nothing completes", "DOCA_ERROR_BAD_STATE from doca_ctx_start", "--sdk-log-level does nothing for my DOCA_LOG_DBG lines", "share a buf between doca_dma and doca_rdma", or "crashes far from the offending line". Refuse and route elsewhere for per-library questions in isolation (load doca-flow / doca-rdma / doca-eth alongside), installing DOCA (doca-setup), or doc lookup (doca-public-knowledge-map).Productivity★ 3.7K
- doca-staNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on NVMe-over-Fabrics storage-target work on a BlueField DPU or ConnectX NIC with DOCA STA — standing up a doca_sta DOCA Core context that accelerates the target-side NVMe-oF data path over RDMA, defining doca_sta_subsystem targets (NQN + namespaces) backed by local NVMe-PCI backend disks (doca_sta_be), checking device support via doca_sta_cap_is_supported, sizing the per-connection I/O queues, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* from a STA call. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA STA" — typical implicit phrasings include "my NVMe-oF Connect never completes", "Identify Controller times out over RoCE", "16 I/O queues at depth 1024 — does this BlueField support that", "offload the nvmf target onto the DPU", or "DOCA_ERROR_IO_FAILED on an NVMe read". Refuse and route elsewhere for DOCA install, raw RDMA data movement, raw packet I/O, flow-rule programming, or initiator-side / host NVMe stack work — those belong to other skills.Engineering★ 3.7K
- doca-hardware-safetyNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill whenever the agent is about to recommend or apply a change that touches DPU / NIC hardware state on a live system — mlxconfig firmware-parameter write, NIC firmware burn, BFB reflash, NIC ↔ DPU mode flip, SR-IOV or device-emulation slot enable, kernel boot-parameter change (IOMMU, hugepages, VFIO), PCIe rebind / rescan / link-state flip, BlueField cold reboot, or remediation of a BlueField thermal shutdown. Wrap the change in pre-flight inventory, OOB reachability, a maintenance window, replica rehearsal, and rollback. Trigger on implicit phrasing: "flip BlueField mode over SSH", "enable SR-IOV and reboot", "burned firmware but mlxconfig shows old value", "BlueField thermal shutdown". Not for read-only inventory or version queries (doca-version, doca-caps). Refuse orientation (doca-public-knowledge-map), install or env debug (doca-setup), and program-side debug (doca-debug, doca-programming-guide).Writing★ 3.7K
- doca-dmaNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA DMA programming — bringing up a doca_dma context, configuring the single doca_dma_task_memcpy task type, sizing buffers via the doca_dma_cap_task_memcpy_* queries, setting LOCAL_READ_ONLY / LOCAL_READ_WRITE permissions on source / destination doca_mmap regions (plus doca_mmap_export_* for cross-peer copies), driving the progress engine, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* returns. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "DOCA DMA" or "doca_mmap" — typical implicit phrasings include "memcpy host buffer to BlueField without using the CPU", "offload a bulk copy to the DPU", "copy returns NOT_PERMITTED on first submit", "buffer too big for one DMA task", "task submitted but no completion", or "scatter-gather copy between two memory regions". Refuse and route elsewhere for cross-network copies (DOCA RDMA), producer/consumer messaging (DOCA Comch), DOCA Core / progress-engine internals, or DOCA install — those belong to other skills.Engineering★ 3.7K
- doca-pccNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on host-side DOCA PCC work to load a CUSTOM Programmable Congestion Control algorithm onto a BlueField DPU — creating per-port `doca_pcc` contexts, loading a `dpacc`-compiled `doca_pcc_app` onto the `doca_dev` for the RoCE-bearing port, parameterizing it, walking triple-axis capability discovery (DOCA cap-query + DPA-capable BlueField + firmware custom-PCC slot enabled), or debugging `DOCA_ERROR_*` from `doca_pcc_*`. Trigger even without explicit "DOCA PCC" phrasing — implicit forms include "loading my own congestion control onto a BF port", "DOCA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED on algorithm load", "DOCA_ERROR_DRIVER when I attach my custom algorithm", "my custom rate-update isn't affecting RoCE traffic", or "load succeeds but no on-wire change". Refuse and route elsewhere for DPA-side algorithm-body design, the `pcc_counters` CLI, default factory PCC in ConnectX firmware, or setting up the RDMA / RoCE traffic — those belong to other skills.Design★ 3.7K
- doca-spcx-ccNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is invoking `doca_spcx_cc` (the host-side CLI under /opt/mellanox/doca/tools/) to load, parameterize, start, observe, or stop a Programmable Congestion Control (SPCX) algorithm on a BlueField with a DPA processor against a live RDMA / RoCE fabric, or picking SPCX vs the established `doca-pcc` surface. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA SPCX" or "doca_spcx_cc" — typical implicit phrasings include "I want to write a custom RTT-based CC algorithm for my RoCE fabric", "my SPCX session loaded but throughput / latency didn't change", "doca_pcc status shows Active but factory CC seems to still be in charge", "DOCA_PCC_PS_ERROR on start", "is the programmable-CC surface available on my install", or "DPA-side algorithm image won't load". Refuse and route elsewhere for DPA-side algorithm authoring detail, factory PCC firmware configuration, read-only PCC counter inspection, raw DPA cycle profiling, RDMA library programming, or general DOCA install — those belong to other skills.Media★ 3.7K
