Background

The repository ships eleven task-specific agent skills, but its documented
entry points routed only write-git-messages. Contributors and non-Codex
agents could therefore miss the end-to-end model onboarding and mismatch
debugging workflows unless they already knew to inspect the plugin directory.

Issue: #1125. A maintainer asked for both the routing update and a clear mapping
between local validation and the public pre-merge jobs.

Exit Criteria

  • Agents can select the applicable repository skill from AGENTS.md.
  • Runtimes that do not load the Codex plugin have a direct-path fallback.
  • The agent and add-a-family guides expose the skill entry point and the exact
    local equivalents of the four Community CPU jobs.

This PR does not change skill content, source code, tests, workflows, or model
behavior.

Implementation

  • Add a task-to-skill routing table for all eleven repository skills and
    generalize the direct-path loading fallback.
  • Point the AI & Agent Guide to the table and the two end-to-end contributor
    skills.
  • Document the post-refactor: isolate model families end to end #1093 Community CPU commands in the add-a-family guide,
    including environment activation, Docker architecture behavior, skipped-test
    interpretation, and the core/runtime complexity boundary.

Change categories

  • Model or runtime behavior
  • Public API
  • ABI
  • Bundle or artifact format
  • Dependencies
  • Documentation only
  • CI or developer tooling

Validation

Commands and Results

  • docker run --rm --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" -e HOME=/tmp -v "$PWD:/repo" -w /repo/website node:20 bash -lc 'npm ci && npm run test:model-support && npm run build': 7 inventory tests passed and the production documentation build completed successfully.
  • python3 -m tools.community_ci impact --base github/main: passed; the three changed paths resolve to the docs scope with no family owners.
  • SOURCE_QUALITY_TIMEOUT= python3 -m tools.community_ci source-quality --base github/main: model inventory, complexity, formatting, and 127 architecture tests passed; one native unresolved-symbol fixture failed on macOS and fails identically on unmodified github/main.
  • git diff --check github/main...HEAD: passed.

Hardware, Environment, and Revisions

  • Head: 0f6cdd2366651d2f8545bfa060dc45834c06270c
  • Base: 54d6d566f1e1fba7aa476857c4fe9cb38bb24b59
  • macOS host, Python 3.12.10; documentation validation used the node:20
    container. No GPU is involved.

Not Run / Remaining Gaps

The complete Community CPU container suite was not run locally. The development
host is macOS, while public CI runs the required suite on Ubuntu linux/amd64.

Contributor Self-Review

  • I have completed a self-review of this change.

Notes For Future Readers

  • This branch was rebased onto the family-isolation layout from refactor: isolate model families end to end #1093. Removed
    central inventory paths and the retired unit --scope all interface were not
    carried forward.
  • The routing table must remain synchronized when a repository skill is added,
    removed, or renamed. Automating that check would be an appropriate follow-up.

Closes #1125

Risk level

  • Low
  • Medium
  • High

Documentation only; all changes are additive except for generalizing the
existing direct-path fallback.

📝 Summary

Summary

  • Added task-to-skill routing and direct skill-loading guidance in AGENTS.md.
  • Added repository skill locations and runtime visibility guidance to the AI & Agent Guide.
  • Added local procedures for all four model-family pre-merge jobs.
  • Documented environment setup, validation commands, documentation checks, complexity limits, platform requirements, and skipped-test handling.
  • Documentation-only change.

Architecture impact

  • Family-owned files: website/docs/extend/add-model-family.md defines model-family contribution workflows.
  • Shared surfaces: AGENTS.md and website/docs/agent-guide.md affect repository contributors and AI agents.
  • Dependency directions: Documentation now points contributors and agents to repository skills and local equivalents of CI checks. No runtime or package dependencies changed.
  • Affected consumers: Repository contributors, AI agents, model-family maintainers, and documentation users.
  • Unresolved blast-radius questions: The complete Community CPU container suite was not run locally because validation occurred on macOS, while public CI uses Ubuntu linux/amd64.

Validation

  • PASS: Documentation tests, website build, impact analysis, source-quality validation, and diff checks passed.
  • BLOCK: The complete Community CPU container suite was not run locally because the available validation environment did not match the public CI architecture.

Walkthrough

The changes document direct repository skill loading, task-to-skill mappings, and local validation requirements for adding model families.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 87fb2

This documentation update improves skill discoverability and local model-family validation guidance without changing runtime behavior. The documented CI setup and validation guidance align with the supplied implementation context, and no current merge-blocking risk remains.

In `@website/docs/extend/add-model-family.md`:
- Around line 295-296: Update the documentation paragraph describing `unit
--scope all` to state that it requires a Docker daemon capable of running the
`linux/amd64` platform, either natively or through emulation, because CI targets
amd64; note that arm64-only hosts without this setup may fail or produce
different results.
- Around line 291-293: Update the CI setup instructions following the .venv-ci
installation to activate that virtual environment before the documented gates
run, or consistently invoke the installed Python and tooling through
.venv-ci/bin; ensure all listed commands use the environment containing
requirements/community-ci.txt.
- Line 282: Update the Community CPU / Source quality row so it clearly states
that cyclomatic complexity is checked across the entire src/ tree, while ruff
and clang-format apply only to changed files; keep the model architecture
contract coverage unchanged.

In `@website/docs/extend/add-model-family.md`:
- Around line 133-137: Update the unit-command setup documentation to explicitly
require a writable RUNNER_TEMP directory before execution, including a fallback
that creates a temporary directory when RUNNER_TEMP is unset. Keep the existing
Docker and platform guidance unchanged.
- Line 128: Update the Community CPU / Source quality table entry and the
corresponding final bullet to state that the cyclomatic-complexity check covers
the whole src/ tree, excludes src/cli, and uses a maximum CCN of 10; remove the
narrower core/runtime scope wording while preserving the other gate checks.

Expose every repository skill through a task-to-skill table in AGENTS.md and generalize the direct-path fallback for runtimes that do not load the Codex plugin.

Point the agent guide at that routing table and the two end-to-end contributor skills. Update the add-a-family guide for the post-isolation layout with the exact four Community CPU commands, environment activation, Docker architecture caveat, skipped-test warning, and core/runtime complexity boundary.

Closes NVIDIA#1125
