tao-train-nvpanoptix3d

tao-train-nvpanoptix3d is a skill for Claude Code from NVIDIA-TAO/tao-skill-bank. It costs 131 tokens per session (4,438 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A computer-vision training tool for rebuilding 3D scenes from camera-positioned color images. It labels each part of the scene by meaning and individual object, then fills in unseen occupied areas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to train, test, export, or run a NVPanoptix3D model on posed RGB images. It is suited to 3D scene segmentation and occupancy completion.
Why use it?
It helps turn ordinary posed photos into a structured 3D understanding of a scene, including objects that are partly hidden. It removes the need to build these reconstruction and labeling stages yourself.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

tao-train-nvpanoptix3d 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 8d 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.

NVPanoptix3D

Standalone install? If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the tao-setup skill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery).

NVPanoptix3D for panoptic 3D scene reconstruction from posed RGB images. Produces 3D panoptic segmentation (semantic, instance, and panoptic masks) with occupancy completion. Built on VGGT backbone with Mask2Former-style head and 3D frustum reconstruction.

Uses 2D and 3D stage checkpoints. Set train.checkpoint_2d and train.checkpoint_3d for staged initialization.

Quick Start (docker run)

Docker-native launch — no TAO SDK and no Python on the host. Use the local Docker/platform skill instead when it gives a stricter environment-specific command (non-root UID mapping, cache redirects, remote daemons).

TAO_PYT_IMAGE_DEFAULT=nvcr.io/nvstaging/tao/tao-toolkit-pyt:7.2.0-rc-36-multiarch  # versions-key: images.tao_toolkit.pyt

  --ulimit stack=67108864
  -v "$RUN_ROOT/data:/data:ro"
  -v "$RUN_ROOT/specs:/specs:ro"
  -v "$RUN_ROOT/results:/results"
)

Train:

docker run "${DOCKER_COMMON[@]}" "$TAO_PYT_IMAGE" \
  python -m nvidia_tao_pytorch.cv.nvpanoptix3d.entrypoint.nvpanoptix3d train -e /specs/train.yaml

Evaluate:

docker run "${DOCKER_COMMON[@]}" "$TAO_PYT_IMAGE" \
  python -m nvidia_tao_pytorch.cv.nvpanoptix3d.entrypoint.nvpanoptix3d evaluate -e /specs/evaluate.yaml

Inference:

docker run "${DOCKER_COMMON[@]}" "$TAO_PYT_IMAGE" \
  python -m nvidia_tao_pytorch.cv.nvpanoptix3d.entrypoint.nvpanoptix3d inference -e /specs/inference.yaml

Export:

docker run "${DOCKER_COMMON[@]}" "$TAO_PYT_IMAGE" \
  python -m nvidia_tao_pytorch.cv.nvpanoptix3d.entrypoint.nvpanoptix3d export -e /specs/export.yaml

Every action takes its spec with -e; results_dir is set in the spec or overridden on the command line. Mount any pretrained-weights directory the spec references, and keep every in-container path consistent across actions.

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.
