Release Notes: Skills#
Version 2026.2#
Release Date: September 9, 2026
The first release of the Skills repository introduces a catalog of user-facing agentic skills for deploying, operating, and extending Open Edge Platform components.
New:
DL Streamer: The
dlstreamer-coding-agentskill guides creation of video analytics applications using Python, C, C++, or GStreamer.Chat Question and Answer: The
chatqna-docker-deployandchatqna-helm-deployskills guide deployment and operation of ChatQnA Core with Docker Compose and Kubernetes.Video Search and Summarization: The
vss-deploy,vss-deploy-helm,vss-search-index, andvss-summarize-videoskills cover deployment, video indexing, semantic search, and video summarization workflows.Multimodal Embedding Serving Microservice: The
multimodal-embedding-serving-userskill covers service deployment and embedding text, images, and videos through its REST API or Python SDK.Multimodal DataPrep Microservice: The
multimodal-dataprep-userskill covers deployment, storage configuration, and ingestion and management of multimedia retrieval data.Model Download: The
model-download-userskill guides downloading and converting models from supported sources into deployment-ready formats.DL Streamer Pipeline Server: The
dlsps-userskill covers deploying the pipeline server and operating configured video analytics pipelines through its REST API.Time Series Analytics Microservice: The
time-series-analytics-userskill guides deployment and creation of streaming and batch analytics use cases, including alerts and model inference.Physical AI Train: The
physicalai-train-adding-a-policy,physicalai-train-benchmarking-a-policy,physicalai-train-exporting-and-validating,physicalai-train-training-a-policy, andphysicalai-train-working-with-datasetsskills cover the policy development lifecycle from datasets and training through benchmarking and export.Physical AI Runtime: The
physicalai-runtime-adding-a-camera-backend,physicalai-runtime-adding-a-robot-integration,physicalai-runtime-configuring-inference-pipeline,physicalai-runtime-loading-exported-policies, andphysicalai-runtime-running-policy-on-robotskills cover camera and robot integration, inference configuration, policy loading, and hardware execution.Geti: The
geti-using-the-pipelineskill covers the project-to-deployment workflow, while the sixgetitune-*skills cover model discovery, dataset preparation, training, inference, export, and optimization.SceneScape: The
scenescape-setupskill guides end-to-end installation, configuration, calibration, and verification of a SceneScape deployment.Metro AI Suite Prompt Library: The
metro-ai-apps-builderskill translates a business objective into a complete Intel Edge AI application plan and delegates implementation to relevant skills.Metro AI Suite Vision AI App Recipe: The
metro-ai-apps-recipeskill deploys a computer-vision analytics stack with live video, dashboards, and alerts from a video source and model.
Improved:
Index Maintenance: The workflow now batches installs by
(repo, ref)to avoid redundant clones and retries skill discovery by path for skills nested beyond the CLI’s default scan depth.Stale Skill Detection:
update_skills_index.pynow detects stale skills from disk independently ofskills-lock.json.
