kermt-setup
Bootstrap the KERMT agent environment — verify host docker + nvidia-container-toolkit, build the kermt:latest image from the repo's Dockerfile if it doesn't yet exist, and run a GPU smoke test inside the container. Every other kermt-* skill depends on this; invoke it first.

Skill manifest
kermt-setup
Bootstrap the KERMT agent environment. Run this once on a fresh machine (or
after the Dockerfile or environment.yml changes) before invoking any other
kermt-* skill.
Skill and runtime paths
Set SKILL_DIR to the absolute path of this installed skill directory. Export
KERMT_REPO as the absolute path to the KERMT checkout used for model
execution. The bundled container helper mounts that checkout at
/workspace and this skill at /skill (read-only). Commands inside
the container use /skill/scripts/.
Hardware requirements
- GPU: at least one CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU visible to the host. The image
is based on
nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-cudnn-devel-ubuntu22.04, so the host driver must support CUDA 12.6. Verify with hostnvidia-smibefore invoking. - Host docker: docker engine + nvidia-container-toolkit. Without the
toolkit,
docker run --gpus allwill fail at step 2 of the workflow below. - Disk: ≈ 50 GB free for the built kermt image (
docker image inspect --format '{{.Size}}'reports ≈ 44 GB; thedocker imagesSize column can show ~100 GB because it counts shareable buildx attestation layers that are deduplicated across images). Plan for ~50 GB of unique on-disk storage; add a comfortable buffer if you're also keeping build cache. - Memory: the build itself peaks at ~4 GB RAM during conda env solve.
- This skill does not run training/inference workloads itself; per-workflow
hardware requirements (VRAM, GPU count) are declared in the respective
kermt-<workflow>skills.
When to invoke
- User explicitly asks (
/kermt-setup, "set up kermt", "build the kermt image", etc.). - Or another
kermt-*skill detected that the image does not exist and routed here. (Most other skills callkermt_ensure_imagethemselves, so this is usually only needed for the first-time setup, debugging, or a forced rebuild.)
Inputs
The skill takes no required arguments. Optional overrides (via env vars before invoking, or by setting them in the user's shell):
KERMT_IMAGE— image tag to build/verify (default:kermt:latest).KERMT_REPO— host path of the kermt repo checkout (default: auto-derived from the script's location).
If the user has not specified a repo path and the current working directory is not inside a kermt repo clone, ask for the repo path before proceeding.
Workflow
All work goes through the bundled scripts/kermt_container.sh on the host. The script's
subcommand dispatch can be invoked directly without sourcing — that is the
preferred form for skill use.
Let HELPER="$SKILL_DIR/scripts/kermt_container.sh".
Verify docker is installed and the daemon is reachable.
"$HELPER" check_dockerExit 0 → continue. Non-zero → surface the error to the user (typically "docker not on PATH" or "daemon not reachable"); do not attempt step 2.
Verify GPU passthrough works.
"$HELPER" check_gpuThis runs
docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-base-ubuntu22.04 nvidia-smiand checks the exit status. Non-zero → tell the user to installnvidia-container-toolkiton the host and confirm a CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU is visible to the host (nvidia-smion the host should also work). Stop here; without GPU passthrough the kermt image will build but no workflow will run.Build or verify the kermt image.
"$HELPER" ensure_imageIf the image already exists, this returns immediately. Otherwise it builds from
$KERMT_REPO/Dockerfile. Warn the user before invoking that the first build takes ~10–20 minutes on a typical workstation and streams build logs to the console. Do not run this in the background — the user wants to see progress and any build failures must surface immediately.GPU smoke test inside the container. Quote the whole
pythoncommand as a single string — the helper passes args throughbash -c "$*", so unquoted multi-word commands get re-parsed and any embedded quotes are collapsed."$HELPER" run -- 'python -c "import torch; print(\"cuda_available:\", torch.cuda.is_available()); print(\"device_count:\", torch.cuda.device_count())"'Expected output:
cuda_available: Trueand a positivedevice_count. Ifcuda_availableisFalsedespite step 2 passing, something is wrong with the container's CUDA wiring — report the full output to the user and stop; do not declare the environment ready.Summary to user. Report:
- Image tag and ID (
docker image inspect $KERMT_IMAGE --format '{{.Id}}'). - Image size (
docker image inspect $KERMT_IMAGE --format '{{.Size}}'). - GPU count detected inside the container.
- "Ready" — the user can now invoke other
kermt-*skills.
- Image tag and ID (
Hard rules
- Do not pull or push docker images. The kermt image is built locally only.
- Do not auto-delete or prune older
kermt:*tags without the user's explicit confirmation — the user may be running a finetune or pretrain in another container that depends on a specific tag. - Do not modify the host's docker daemon configuration, daemon.json, or user-group membership.
- Do not modify the
Dockerfileorenvironment.ymlas part of this skill. If the build fails because of a Dockerfile issue, surface the error and stop; let the user decide whether to edit. - Do not rebuild the image when it already exists (i.e. do not pass a
--no-cacheor--pullflag to ensure_image) unless the user explicitly asks for a forced rebuild.
Forced rebuild
If the user explicitly asks to rebuild (e.g. after changing the Dockerfile or
environment.yml), the cleanest path is to remove the old image first, then
rerun ensure_image:
docker image rm $KERMT_IMAGE
"$HELPER" ensure_image
Confirm with the user before running docker image rm.

# Skill Benchmark: kermt-setup > ✅ **Overall verdict: PASS — Recommended for publication** ## Publication Recommendation Recommended for publication based on the completed evaluation evidence in this report. ## Evaluation Metadata - Skill: `kermt-setup` - Evaluation date: 2026-09-15 - Evaluator version: `1.5.6` - Agents: Claude Code (`aws/anthropic/bedrock-claude-opus-4-8`), Codex (`openai/openai/gpt-5.5`) - Tasks: 4 evaluation tasks (3 positive, 1 negative) - Dataset digest: `sha256:acc9600691efbd2c4b9356f2ca6f5e3a58ccccbf8772a88bf444c1b00baa43e3` (skill-evaluator-dataset-snapshot/1) - Attempts per task: 3 - Environment: `k8s-sandbox` - Tier 2 evidence: required for publication - Tier 3 evidence: required for publication Each task attempt ran in its own isolated sandbox pod. ## What This Report Answers The three-tier evaluation checks whether the skill: - is safe to use; - produces correct answers; - is discovered and activated when needed; - helps the agent complete the user's goal and expected workflow; and - avoids wasted skill and tool usage. ## Results at a Glance | Measure | Claude Code (Baseline → Skill Uplift) | Codex (Baseline → Skill Uplift) | |---|---:|---:| | Overall | 80.5% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 89.1% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | | Security | 100.0% → 50.0% (-50.0 points) | 50.0% → 100.0% (+50.0 points) | | Correctness | 40.0% → 100.0% (+60.0 points) | 60.0% → 100.0% (+40.0 points) | | Discoverability | 90.0% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 92.7% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | | Effectiveness | 31.9% → 78.8% (+46.9 points) | 40.0% → 70.0% (+30.0 points) | | Efficiency | 83.5% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 82.6% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | **How to read this table:** baseline is the same task attempted without the target skill. Scores are rounded to one decimal; threshold-adjacent values use additional precision so their displayed band matches the verdict. Uplift is derived from those displayed scores and shown in percentage points. Example: `47.0% → 92.0% (+45.0 points)` means the skill-assisted run scored 92.0%, 45.0 percentage points above its 47.0% no-skill baseline. A partial dimension was calculated from only the available configured signals; review the detailed report before relying on it. ## Token Usage Actual Tier 3 execution usage is reported for every observed agent/case pair and both conditions. | Agent | Dataset case | With skill | Without skill | Delta | Change | Coverage | |---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---| | claude-code | All cases | 1,402,843 | 1,292,877 | N/A | N/A | skill 4/4; base 8/8 | | claude-code | kermt-setup-001 | 353,934 | 463,477 | N/A | N/A | skill 1/1; base 3/3 | | claude-code | kermt-setup-002 | 385,745 | 221,859 | +163,886 | +73.87% | skill 1/1; base 1/1 | | claude-code | kermt-setup-003 | 342,340 | 518,121 | N/A | N/A | skill 1/1; base 3/3 | | claude-code | kermt-setup-004 | 320,824 | 89,420 | +231,404 | +258.78% | skill 1/1; base 1/1 | | codex | All cases | 311,920 | 568,520 | N/A | N/A | skill 4/4; base 6/6 | | codex | kermt-setup-001 | 75,175 | 69,265 | +5,910 | +8.53% | skill 1/1; base 1/1 | | codex | kermt-setup-002 | 126,981 | 433,754 | N/A | N/A | skill 1/1; base 3/3 | | codex | kermt-setup-003 | 95,961 | 52,034 | +43,927 | +84.42% | skill 1/1; base 1/1 | | codex | kermt-setup-004 | 13,803 | 13,467 | +336 | +2.49% | skill 1/1; base 1/1 | | ALL AGENTS | Dataset aggregate | 1,714,763 | 1,861,397 | N/A | N/A | skill 8/8; base 14/14 | Prompt tokens include cached reads, so total tokens are `prompt + completion` (cached is not added twice). The Efficiency score uses `(prompt - cached) + completion`. N/A means the relevant trajectory counters were not available; coverage is never estimated. ## Tier Status | Tier | Purpose | Status | Evidence | |---|---|---|---| | Tier 1 | Static validation | **PASSED WITH OBSERVATIONS** | 11 validator(s); 26 finding(s) | | Tier 2 | Semantic deduplication | **PASSED** | 2 validator(s); 0 finding(s) | | Tier 3 | Live agent evaluation | **PASS** | 2 agent(s); 4 task(s) | ## Findings and Observations <details> <summary>Show detailed findings and successful checks</summary> - **MEDIUM** QUALITY/quality_correctness: No documented scripts in table format (`skills/kermt-setup/SKILL.md`) - **MEDIUM** QUALITY/quality_correctness: Instructions don't mention 'run_script' (`skills/kermt-setup/SKILL.md`) - **MEDIUM** QUALITY/quality_correctness: SKILL_SPEC recommended field missing: 'metadata.author' (`skills/kermt-setup/SKILL.md`) - **MEDIUM** QUALITY/quality_correctness: SKILL_SPEC recommended field missing: 'metadata.tags' (`skills/kermt-setup/SKILL.md`) - **MEDIUM** SCHEMA/metadata_key_style: Metadata key 'risk_tier' is not kebab-case (`skills/kermt-setup/SKILL.md`) - 21 additional finding(s) are available in the full evaluation artifacts. </details> ## Scoring Methodology <details> <summary>Show dimension definitions, source signals, and thresholds</summary> | Dimension | Question | Scored signals | |---|---|---| | Security | Is it safe to use? | `security` (100%) | | Correctness | Is the answer correct? | `accuracy` (100%) | | Discoverability | Was the right skill loaded when needed? | `skill_execution` (100%) | | Effectiveness | Did the skill help complete the task? | `goal_accuracy` (50%) + `behavior_check` (50%) | | Efficiency | Did it avoid wasted tool calls and token usage? | `skill_efficiency` (50%) + `token_efficiency` (50%) | - Dimension bands: PASS at 50% or above; NEUTRAL from 40% to below 50%; FAIL below 40%. - Overall Tier 3 lift: PASS at +5 points or more; FAIL at -10 points or less; values between those bands are NEUTRAL. - Overall verdict: PASS only when every configured dimension passes for at least one supported agent. Lift is reported as diagnostic evidence and does not override this gate. - The 50% attempt pass threshold is a separate per-task gate; it is not the dimension pass threshold. - Effectiveness is the equal-weight mean of goal completion (`goal_accuracy`) and expected workflow adherence (`behavior_check`). - Efficiency is 50% tool-call productivity (the backward-compatible `skill_efficiency` wire id) and 50% `token_efficiency`. Positive-case skill routing is scored under Discoverability, not Efficiency; a negative case without a routing target is N/A. N/A sources are omitted, remaining weights are renormalized, and the dimension is marked partial. Signals present in this run: - `security` (Security): unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access. - `skill_execution` (Skill Execution): whether the expected skill was selected, decoys were avoided, and the workflow executed. - `skill_efficiency` (Tool Productivity): tool-call productivity (legacy wire id; routing is scored under Discoverability). - `accuracy` (Accuracy): final-answer correctness against the reference answer. - `goal_accuracy` (Goal Accuracy): whether the user's goal was achieved. - `behavior_check` (Behavior Check): whether the expected workflow behavior was followed. - `token_efficiency` (Token Efficiency): actual uncached prompt plus completion usage (50% of Efficiency). </details> ## Freshness Regenerate this benchmark when the skill, evaluation dataset, target agent/model, evaluator version, environment, or scoring policy changes. -

--- name: kermt-setup description: Bootstrap the KERMT agent environment — verify host docker + nvidia-container-toolkit, build the kermt:latest image from the repo's Dockerfile if it doesn't yet exist, and run a GPU smoke test inside the container. Every other kermt-* skill depends on this; invoke it first. license: Apache-2.0 compatibility: Requires docker, nvidia-container-toolkit, and a CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU. Designed for Claude Code, Codex, and Nemotron. metadata: owner: evax@nvidia.com classification: atomic-skill risk_tier: skill # This file is intentionally short (~110 lines, ~1200 tokens) — well within the # 500-line / 5000-token budget for skill files. Longer reference material lives # alongside /skill/scripts/kermt_container.sh. --- # kermt-setup Bootstrap the KERMT agent environment. Run this once on a fresh machine (or after the Dockerfile or `environment.yml` changes) before invoking any other `kermt-*` skill. ## Skill and runtime paths Set `SKILL_DIR` to the absolute path of this installed skill directory. Export `KERMT_REPO` as the absolute path to the KERMT checkout used for model execution. The bundled container helper mounts that checkout at `/workspace` and this skill at `/skill` (read-only). Commands inside the container use `/skill/scripts/`. ## Hardware requirements - **GPU**: at least one CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU visible to the host. The image is based on `nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-cudnn-devel-ubuntu22.04`, so the host driver must support CUDA 12.6. Verify with host `nvidia-smi` before invoking. - **Host docker**: docker engine + nvidia-container-toolkit. Without the toolkit, `docker run --gpus all` will fail at step 2 of the workflow below. - **Disk**: ≈ 50 GB free for the built kermt image (`docker image inspect --format '{{.Size}}'` reports ≈ 44 GB; the `docker images` Size column can show ~100 GB because it counts shareable buildx attestation layers that are deduplicated across images). Plan for ~50 GB of unique on-disk storage; add a comfortable buffer if you're also keeping build cache. - **Memory**: the build itself peaks at ~4 GB RAM during conda env solve. - This skill does not run training/inference workloads itself; per-workflow hardware requirements (VRAM, GPU count) are declared in the respective `kermt-<workflow>` skills. ## When to invoke - User explicitly asks (`/kermt-setup`, "set up kermt", "build the kermt image", etc.). - Or another `kermt-*` skill detected that the image does not exist and routed here. (Most other skills call `kermt_ensure_image` themselves, so this is usually only needed for the first-time setup, debugging, or a forced rebuild.) ## Inputs The skill takes no required arguments. Optional overrides (via env vars before invoking, or by setting them in the user's shell): - `KERMT_IMAGE` — image tag to build/verify (default: `kermt:latest`). - `KERMT_REPO` — host path of the kermt repo checkout (default: auto-derived from the script's location). If the user has not specified a repo path and the current working directory is not inside a kermt repo clone, ask for the repo path before proceeding. ## Workflow All work goes through the bundled `scripts/kermt_container.sh` on the host. The script's subcommand dispatch can be invoked directly without sourcing — that is the preferred form for skill use. Let `HELPER="$SKILL_DIR/scripts/kermt_container.sh"`. 1. **Verify docker is installed and the daemon is reachable.** ``` "$HELPER" check_docker ``` Exit 0 → continue. Non-zero → surface the error to the user (typically "docker not on PATH" or "daemon not reachable"); do not attempt step 2. 2. **Verify GPU passthrough works.** ``` "$HELPER" check_gpu ``` This runs `docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-base-ubuntu22.04 nvidia-smi` and checks the exit status. Non-zero → tell the user to install `nvidia-container-toolkit` on the host and confirm a CUDA-capable NVIDIA GPU is visible to the host (`nvidia-smi` on the host should also work). Stop here; without GPU passthrough the kermt image will build but no workflow will run. 3. **Build or verify the kermt image.** ``` "$HELPER" ensure_image ``` If the image already exists, this returns immediately. Otherwise it builds from `$KERMT_REPO/Dockerfile`. **Warn the user before invoking** that the first build takes ~10–20 minutes on a typical workstation and streams build logs to the console. Do not run this in the background — the user wants to see progress and any build failures must surface immediately. 4. **GPU smoke test inside the container.** Quote the whole `python` command as a single string — the helper passes args through `bash -c "$*"`, so unquoted multi-word commands get re-parsed and any embedded quotes are collapsed. ``` "$HELPER" run -- 'python -c "import torch; print(\"cuda_available:\", torch.cuda.is_available()); print(\"device_count:\", torch.cuda.device_count())"' ``` Expected output: `cuda_available: True` and a positive `device_count`. If `cuda_available` is `False` despite step 2 passing, something is wrong with the container's CUDA wiring — report the full output to the user and stop; do not declare the environment ready. 5. **Summary to user.** Report: - Image tag and ID (`docker image inspect $KERMT_IMAGE --format '{{.Id}}'`). - Image size (`docker image inspect $KERMT_IMAGE --format '{{.Size}}'`). - GPU count detected inside the container. - "Ready" — the user can now invoke other `kermt-*` skills. ## Hard rules - Do **not** pull or push docker images. The kermt image is built locally only. - Do **not** auto-delete or prune older `kermt:*` tags without the user's explicit confirmation — the user may be running a finetune or pretrain in another container that depends on a specific tag. - Do **not** modify the host's docker daemon configuration, daemon.json, or user-group membership. - Do **not** modify the `Dockerfile` or `environment.yml` as part of this skill. If the build fails because of a Dockerfile issue, surface the error and stop; let the user decide whether to edit. - Do **not** rebuild the image when it already exists (i.e. do not pass a `--no-cache` or `--pull` flag to ensure_image) unless the user explicitly asks for a forced rebuild. ## Forced rebuild If the user explicitly asks to rebuild (e.g. after changing the Dockerfile or `environment.yml`), the cleanest path is to remove the old image first, then rerun `ensure_image`: ``` docker image rm $KERMT_IMAGE "$HELPER" ensure_image ``` Confirm with the user before running `docker image rm`. -
