Deepstream Profile Pipeline — Agent Skill by NVIDIA

From the author

Profile a DeepStream pipeline with Nsight Systems and derive its configs from the measurement. Use when the user asks for an efficient, performant, or profiled pipeline — or to benchmark, tune, or measure FPS.

Requirements and compatibility

Works with: Claude Code, Claude apps, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Kiro, OpenCode, Goose, Amp, Roo Code, JetBrains Junie, Factory Droid, Devin (ex-Windsurf), Mistral Vibe, OpenHands, Letta

“Works with” means the tool reads the open Agent Skills format; a skill written for one tool may use features others lack.

Needs: Needs Python

The author says: DeepStream SDK 9.0 on Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04, run from the `nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream:9.0-triton-multiarch` container (the dev image; the slimmer `samples-multiarch` variant strips the nsys NVTX injector and produces empty per-plugin NVTX traces — do not use it for profiling). Requires `nsys` (Nsight Systems 2024+) and `nvidia-smi` on PATH. No GUI dependency — the skill runs fully headless and uses only `nsys profile` + `nsys stats`.
