setup-trtmc-environment

setup-trtmc-environment is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from NVIDIA/TensorRT-Model-Connect. It costs 32 tokens per session (314 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A procedure for preparing a TensorRT-Model-Connect checkout on an unfamiliar computer. TensorRT is NVIDIA software for running machine-learning models efficiently, and the procedure covers the supported container and GPU setup.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before building, testing, packaging, or validating runtime behavior from a fresh checkout. It helps choose the repository-supported Docker path and verify the resulting environment.
Why use it?
It prevents builds and tests from depending on old containers, machine-specific assumptions, or an unsupported environment. It also checks that the repository, container mount, GPU, and TensorRT installation work together.

About the project

NVIDIA/TensorRT-Model-Connect is a collection of C++ reference implementations for deploying supported Hugging Face models with NVIDIA TensorRT, a system that runs trained models to produce inference results. It is for developers who want to build and run supported models or evaluate model integrations through TensorRT. The catalogue entries provide skills and instructions for using this model deployment workflow.

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

setup-trtmc-environment 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Set Up the Environment

Start from the checkout and current repository documentation, not a remembered machine or container name.

  1. Resolve the repository root and read website/docs/getting-started/source-build.md, Dockerfile, and apps/devtoolkit/README.md.
  2. Inspect host architecture, available disk, Docker access, GPU visibility, driver, and compute capability only as needed for the requested work.
  3. Prefer the existing apps/devtoolkit API for a checkout-owned environment. Use its Docker path for the supported development image or its local path with an explicit existing Python interpreter.
  4. Select one family when model work is requested. Install only that family's optional families/<family>/requirements.txt; a missing file means no family package step.
  5. Verify the checkout mount, Python import, TensorRT import, GPU visibility, runtime root, and requested native target before starting the real task.

Do not reuse, replace, or remove an unrelated container. Do not install GPU drivers, reconfigure the container runtime, or change runner settings without separate authorization. Stop and explain the unsupported host boundary when the documented paths do not apply.

Report environment preparation separately from compilation, tests, model correctness, performance, and deployment qualification.

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.
