doca-urom
doca-urom 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 configures and manages the DOCA UROM library for offloading memory operations to a BlueField DPU, creating service and worker contexts, and handling plugin interactions. It triggers on various DOCA UROM calls and errors, but is not for DPU-side UROM Service deployment.
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.

Host-side DOCA UROM library (doca_urom_*): offload an HPC / UCX / MPI application's remote memory operations (puts, gets, atomics, collectives) from the host CPU onto a BlueField DPU. Trigger on "MPI all-reduce burning host CPU", "push UCX traffic onto the BlueField", "first doca_urom call returns NOT_PERMITTED", or "host library and DPU service look out of sync", even without naming DOCA UROM. An offload needs both halves: this host library and the UROM Service on the DPU (doca-urom-svc), which owns deploying that container. Covers creating UROM Service contexts (doca_urom_service_*) and Worker contexts (doca_urom_worker_*) that run plugins on the DPU, discovering plugins via doca_urom_service_get_plugins_list, progressing completions, and DOCA_ERROR_* from doca_urom_* calls. Route elsewhere for UROM Service deployment on the DPU side, MPI / UCX collective algorithm design, and RDMA / RoCE / IB substrate bring-up.
