Brev

NVIDIA Brev provides on-demand GPU instances across multiple cloud providers. Instances come pre-loaded with NVIDIA drivers, CUDA, Docker, and NVIDIA Container Toolkit.

Brev is instance-based (not job-based like Lepton). You create an instance, run commands on it via brev exec, and delete it when done. The TAO SDK's BrevHandler wraps this into the standard job interface.

Preflight

This skill needs the brev CLI, its companion agent skill (brev-cli), and an active login. Check before proceeding:

# 1. brev CLI installed
command -v brev >/dev/null 2>&1 || {
  echo "MISSING: brev CLI not installed. Install:"
  echo "  https://docs.nvidia.com/brev/"
  exit 1
}
