Kubernetes

Standalone install? If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the tao-setup skill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery).

Submits TAO container jobs as Kubernetes Jobs. Works on any cluster reachable via kubeconfig (EKS / GKE / AKS / on-prem) or in-cluster service account (when running inside a pod).

Single-pod by default; opt into multi-node distributed training via num_nodes > 1 (uses Indexed Job + headless Service, see Multi-node training below).

Preflight

Three checks: GPU host runtime ready, cluster reachable via kubectl, GPU Operator/device plugin present.
