TAO Skill Bank Capabilities

Name: tao-list-capabilities
Author: nvidia

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).

Use this skill when the user asks what tao-skill-bank can do, asks for plugin capabilities, asks which application or data workflows are available, asks which models are supported, or asks what models are capable with AutoML.

Quick Start

Run scripts/list_tao_capabilities.py for general capability questions, or scripts/list_tao_models.py for model/action and AutoML support questions.

Capability Answers

For a general capabilities answer, run the packaged helper:

${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external}/scripts/list_tao_capabilities.py \
  --skill-bank ${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external} --format text

Use the helper output as the source of truth for the answer instead of manually enumerating capabilities from this skill or plugin metadata. Include:

Every top-level application workflow under applications/ and what it can do.
Every top-level data workflow under data/ and what it can do.
Supported execution platforms from scripts/list_tao_platforms.py.
The fine-tuning/deployment workflow coverage for models under models/: train, evaluate, inference, export, and TensorRT engine generation when those actions are present in the packaged schema manifest.
AutoML support and the AutoML per-action schema gate.

Model Lists

When the user asks which TAO models are available or which actions a model can run, use the packaged model-list script instead of manually scanning model folders:

${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external}/scripts/list_tao_models.py \
  --skill-bank ${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external} --scope all --format text

The model list comes from skills/models/schemas.manifest.json.

AutoML Lists

When the user asks what models are capable with AutoML, use the same model-list script in AutoML mode, or the compatibility wrapper:

${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external}/scripts/list_tao_models.py \
  --skill-bank ${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external} --scope automl --format text

${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external}/scripts/list_automl_support.py \
  --skill-bank ${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH:-~/tao-skills-external} --format text

Use --action distill, --action prune, or --action quantize when the user asks about a specific compression action.

AutoML support for an action requires skills/models/<model_skill>/schemas/<action>.schema.json to be packaged with the plugin and parse successfully as JSON. If that dataclass schema is missing or invalid, do not describe the model/action as AutoML-supported.
