doca-rmax
doca-rmax is an agent skill published by nvidia, listed under review & testing. It lives in the NVIDIA/skills repository, which has 3,735 GitHub stars and is licensed under Apache-2.0; we last read it on 2026-10-23.
This skill sets up `doca_rmax_in_stream` sessions for handling timing-precise media-over-IP data, confirms Rivermax SDK and license prerequisites, and interacts with `doca-eth` and `doca-flow` for debugging and support. It triggers on issues related to ST 2110 receive, BlueField DPU, and Rivermax license checks.
Install
skills is a generic installer for any repository of Claude agent skills -- it reads NVIDIA/skills’s own structure rather than assuming one, the same way this page reads the skill’s own SKILL.md rather than assuming a format.

Maintenance
DOCA Rivermax (doca_rmax) receive streams for timing-precise media over IP (SMPTE ST 2110 video / audio, market data, scientific feeds) on a target BlueField DPU (DOCA Rivermax apps run only there), once the Rivermax libraries and license are installed; getting them is doca-setup / doca-public-knowledge-map territory. Trigger on "ST 2110 receive isn't getting frames", "sub-microsecond jitter on my media receiver", "NOT_SUPPORTED from doca_rmax_init", "no recv events after stream start", or "license check failing on a media receiver", even without naming Rivermax. Covers doca_rmax_in_stream sessions, the SDK + license precondition check, doca_rmax_get_*_supported capability queries, pairing with doca-eth queues and doca-flow steering, and DOCA_ERROR_* from Rivermax calls. Refuse and route elsewhere for programming the underlying queue (doca-eth), steering rules (doca-flow), PTP / clock sync (doca-firefly), or best-effort packet I/O.
