CC tao-run-deft-aoi
Run the full DEFT AOI improvement loop for NVIDIA TAO VisualChangeNet / ChangeNet PCB inspection models: baseline evaluate, RCA, Cosmos AnomalyGen / AMP synthetic defects, k-NN mining, retraining, and deployment gating against a customer-defined primary metric and optional constraints. Use only when the request identifies an AOI / automated-optical-inspection, PCB-defect, VisualChangeNet, or ChangeNet workflow. Supports air-gapped/offline runs with pre-staged assets. Never infer AOI from generic iterative-improvement language. Do not use for CLIP / SigLIP image retrieval, attribute-labelled image data, standalone TAO training, one-off inference, generic anomaly generation, or RCA-only analysis.

What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.
Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
