Nemotron Retrieval Recipes

Invocation: $nemotron-retrieval-recipes.

Purpose

Use this skill to plan, run, and debug public Nemotron embedding and reranking recipes. The bundled references support planning without a Nemotron checkout or network access. Before execution, verify the installed CLI's capabilities and the selected configuration because recipe interfaces can change.

Use it only for tasks tied to the public Nemotron embed or rerank recipe flow. If the request is unrelated retrieval theory, generic vector database selection, generic benchmark advice, or non-recipe Docker/Slurm/NIM troubleshooting, stop with a short scope note and do not inspect recipe files in that turn.

Security Notes

Use Bash for repo-scoped inspection, help, dry-run, and user-approved execution commands. Do not run API, GPU, Docker, Slurm, NIM, or other long-running work unless the user explicitly asks for it. Before Stage 0 SDG for either family, confirm the user's data-governance policy permits sending corpus content to the configured inference endpoints; otherwise use an approved private or air-gapped path. Never run broad environment dumps or commands that expose secret values. Prefer dotlist overrides and config review over editing recipe defaults.

Runtime and Source Priority

Resolve references/ links relative to this skill folder, not the working directory. External source links are optional, commit-pinned background. Do not require repository documentation to answer a planning question.
