doca-collectx-deployment
FeaturedUse this skill to deploy and operate a CollectX (clx) based DOCA telemetry collector on a host or BlueField — wiring providers / counters into the collector, running the collection daemon, and shaping its exporters (Prometheus pull, Fluent Bit push, NetFlow, file / IPC) so the metrics actually leave the box. Trigger even when the user never says CollectX or clx — implicit phrasings: {collector emits nothing downstream}, {add a provider to the clx collector}, {turn on the Prometheus endpoint}, {ship counters to Fluent Bit from the DPU}, {daemon starts but no schema rows appear}. This skill owns the CollectX collection mechanism plus the operator's own doca-telemetry / doca-telemetry-exporter usage; it ROUTES the productized DOCA Telemetry Service (DTS) to public docs (AGENTS.md Non-goal #7), the reader API to doca-telemetry, and the publisher API to doca-telemetry-exporter. Refuse to invent clx symbols, provider names, schema fields, flags, or config paths — describe the class and route to the live source.

Semantically similar based on skill content — not just same category
doca-container-deployment
Use this skill when the user is hands-on deploying an in-bundle DOCA service container (Argus, DMS, Firefly, or UROM service) on a BlueField — kubelet standalone watching a static-pod manifests directory, YAML pod-spec drop, kubelet status / ENTRYPOINT logs / per-service liveness, smoke-before-bulk, and the layered error taxonomy (pod-spec, scheduling, image pull, runtime, mount, network, version, host). Trigger even when the user does not say "container deployment" — typical implicit phrasings include "how do I run my built service on the BlueField?", "where do I drop the pod-spec YAML?", "pod stuck in Pending / ImagePullBackOff / CrashLoopBackOff", "container Running but service isn't ready", "pod restart-loops after edit", or "DMS and Firefly together". Refuse and route elsewhere for per-service config schemas, DOCA install, library-API questions, external NVIDIA services (BlueMan, HBN, SNAP, Virtio-net), or full Kubernetes-cluster ops — those belong to other skills.
doca-caps
Use this skill when the user wants to invoke the read-only doca_caps CLI to ask what DOCA sees on this host — listing DOCA devices and PCIe addresses, listing representor devices, asking which DOCA libraries are available on the current OS, checking per-device per-library capabilities, scoping output to a specific PCIe address, or capturing a side-effect-free capability snapshot for a debug session or install smoke-test. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "doca_caps" or "capabilities print tool" — typical implicit phrasings include "what does DOCA actually see on this box", "is my BlueField PF visible to DOCA", "is Flow available on my RHEL host", "enumerate VF representors for pf0", "doca_caps: command not found", or "empty output for RDMA, is the tool broken". Refuse and route elsewhere for DOCA installation, library-internal capability matrices (Flow pipe creation, RDMA verbs features), streaming telemetry / DTS, or modifying the shipped binary — those belong to other skills.
doca-bare-metal-deployment
Use this skill for launching, supervising, debugging, OR platform lifecycle on a BlueField — BFB install, RShim/TMFIFO, host PF rebind, post-BFB recovery — taking a DOCA-linked binary to a healthy run directly on hardware (host x86 + BlueField NIC over PCIe, or BlueField Arm bare-metal). No container, no kubelet. Covers launch mode (direct, tmux, systemd), PCI/NUMA/ CPU/IRQ binding, co-tenant isolation (cgroup-v2/netns/numactl), a seven-layer error taxonomy, and a six-state BlueField lifecycle classifier. Trigger even when user does not say "bare-metal" — implicit phrasings include "binary exits 1 right after launch", "systemd keeps restarting it", "no matching device on the BF", "bfb-install exited 0 but DPU is dead", "ping 192.168.100.2 works but ssh fails", "host PFs aren't showing netdevs". Destructive firmware burn / mlxconfig set requires explicit confirmation via doca-hardware-safety; containers, library APIs, env prep, and build use other skills.
