Doca Comm Channel Admin skill

doca-comm-channel-adminNVIDIA/skillsskills/doca-comm-channel-admin/SKILL.md

Use this skill to enumerate host↔DPU DOCA comch (formerly Comm Channel) servers and connections via the shipped doca_comm_channel_admin binary — listing comch-capable devices and decoding the per-device server / connection table (server name, PID, in-use / max, PCIe address). The shipped binary is a SINGLE-SHOT SCAN-AND-PRINT tool with no registered arguments — NO list / inspect / drain / restart subcommands; one inventory pass over every comch-capable doca_dev on this side. Channel reset / drain / restart go to doca-comch (program side), doca-setup / doca-hardware-safety (driver reload), or BFB / RShim — NOT to this binary. Trigger on phrasings like "list comch servers", "which channels are active on this BlueField", or "verify admin tool sees same channel as program." Refuse and route elsewhere for the comch programming API, library install, protocol design, channel reset, or general orientation.

Install the Doca Comm Channel Admin skill

Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)

npx skills add https://github.com/NVIDIA/skills --skill doca-comm-channel-admin

Claude Code, by hand (all projects)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/NVIDIA/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/skills/skills/doca-comm-channel-admin ~/.claude/skills/doca-comm-channel-admin

For one project only, copy the folder into .claude/skills/ in that project instead. The agent picks it up when a task matches its description.

What it costs your context

Agent Skills load in three steps. Tokens counted with the o200k tokenizer; your model's count will differ a little.

Until it is used, doca-comm-channel-admin costs about 6.3× less than the median MCP server we measured (1,363 tokens on every turn). Installing all 150 skills from NVIDIA/skills would load 20,796 tokens of descriptions. Skills vs MCP study
