Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 11 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00111 | $0.03781 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00056 | $0.01891 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00756 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00378 |
Grade A, and why
tao-finetune-video-clip scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 270 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
InternVideo2-CLIP (TAO video_clip)
Standalone install? If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the
tao-setupskill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery).
TAO task video_clip wraps OpenGVLab InternVideo2-CLIP L14. The PyTorch image provides train, evaluate, inference, export, and default_specs. TAO Deploy provides gen_trt_engine, TensorRT evaluate, and TensorRT inference.
Container images and per-action commands are in references/skill_info.yaml and references/tao-deploy-video-clip.skill_info.yaml. Starting specs are in references/spec_template_*.yaml.
Release note: The pinned PyTorch image is the TAO 7.2 FC build validated for Video-CLIP. The pinned tag resolves to OCI digest
sha256:faeb58559e1d87afd16453580999c178feb345f9dc87e35b8f40098e9604dd09; it includes PyAV 17.1.0 as the primary decoder and ONNXScript 0.7.1 for export, with decord absent. The TAO Deploy image is pinned independently becausegen_trt_engineand TensorRT-backed actions do not run in the PyTorch image.Known-broken images: interim builds cut before tao-pytorch commit

Train Action Policy
AutoML is not packaged for this model skill. Always use direct video_clip actions even when a higher-level request mentions AutoML. Non-train actions stay in this skill.
Quick Start (local Docker)
Use the pinned TAO container declared in references/skill_info.yaml. Pull with NGC_KEY when the image is not cached locally.
VIDEO_CLIP_IMAGE_DEFAULT="nvcr.io/nvstaging/tao/tao-toolkit-pyt:v7.0.1-pyt2.1.0-py3-06" # versions-key: images.tao_toolkit.video_clip
VIDEO_CLIP_IMAGE="${VIDEO_CLIP_IMAGE:-$VIDEO_CLIP_IMAGE_DEFAULT}"

What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

tao-finetune-video-clip is a skill published in the GitHub repository NVIDIA-TAO/tao-skill-bank (88 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 111 tokens to every session and 3,781 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
