Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Preflight and diagnose the ten known failure modes for ML training on NVIDIA DGX Spark. Use when a training run on DGX Spark fails to start, OOMs below the 128GB limit, slows down mid-run, or before any multi-hour training job on GB10.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'spark-training-gotchas' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'spark-training-gotchas' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named spark-training-gotchas already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/wshobson/agents' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '9c61ab243def98f72da12abd41cfcf5bcd91af9d' -- 'plugins/dgx-spark-ops/skills/spark-training-gotchas' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/dgx-spark-ops/skills/spark-training-gotchas' ~/.agents/skills/'spark-training-gotchas' && 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/'spark-training-gotchas' ~/.claude/skills/'spark-training-gotchas' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
