75 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
By NVIDIA/skills (GitHub) · coding · 3,933 stars · scanned at commit 2630133
Install cuOpt for Python, C, or server via pip, conda, or Docker; verify the install. For building cuOpt from source, see cuopt-developer.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'cuopt-install' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'cuopt-install' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named cuopt-install already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/NVIDIA/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '2630133f22e357f2005886567a39eddcc1b520e2' -- 'skills/cuopt-install' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/cuopt-install' ~/.agents/skills/'cuopt-install' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'cuopt-install' ~/.claude/skills/'cuopt-install' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
