vss-build-vision-ai
Add agent-ready vision capabilities — dense captioning, detection, search, alerting, summarization — to an agent or application through a customizable, self-contained vision stack built on the NVIDIA VSS Blueprint. Use this skill when a developer or agent wants to give their app vision: pick capabilities via guided intake ("build a vision agent", "add vision capabilities") or describe them in natural language ("create a profile for streaming dense captioning", "add agentic search to my base deployment", "deploy warehouse 3d"). Route, compose, configure, and deploy stock base, alerts, LVS, search developer profiles, or the warehouse industry profile and lean custom combinations expressed as delta overlays using one current developer profile as the Foundation. Not for operating a stack that is already deployed — searching, asking about a video, summarizing, managing alerts, or generating a report — and not for deploying a single microservice on its own; use the matching vss-* skill for those.

# Build Vision Agent
`build-vision-ai` gives agents and developers **agent-ready vision capabilities through a customizable, self-contained application stack** built on the **NVIDIA VSS Blueprint**. A developer or agent adds vision to their application by selecting the capabilities they want (guided intake) or describing them in natural language, and the skill routes to a validated developer profile — or composes the smallest delta overlay on top of one — and deploys it. Use it whenever the user wants vision capabilities composed for them: deploying a stock profile, extending a running deployment, or building a lean custom combination.
**Two ways in:** **guided intake** (state an open intent like "build a vision agent" / "add vision capabilities" and the skill walks you through capability selection) or **prompt-driven** (name the capability or profile directly). Both land on the same routing and composition flow.
## When to Use
- Compose and deploy a self-contained vision application stack — a stock developer profile (`base`, `alerts`, `lvs`, `search`) or the `warehouse` industry profile — not a single microservice on its own
- Extend or customize that stack as a delta overlay on a developer profile Foundation
- Change a build's lifecycle: install the NemoClaw/OpenClaw/Hermes harness on it, resize it, or tear it down. Operating the running stack (search, Q&A, summaries, alerts, reports) is not this skill — see below
