Use when asked to install, deploy, run, validate, troubleshoot, or stop NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint infrastructure.
Use when asked to run deep research or AI-Q research through a reachable NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint backend.
Use when changing AI-Q continuous integration, pre-commit, or contributor governance — editing .github/workflows/ (ci, ui, skills-eval, request-nvskills-ci), .pre-commit-config.yaml hooks, .github/CODEOWNERS, .coderabbit.yaml, copy-pr-bot, or the .github/skill-eval harness — and validating those changes without breaking the gate.
Use when validating an AI-Q change before opening or merging a PR — choosing and running the right Python, frontend, docs, or eval checks for the surfaces you touched instead of one fixed command list.
Use when adding or changing an AI-Q data source under sources/, registering it as a NeMo Agent Toolkit function, wiring it into the data_source_registry for UI toggles, or validating retrieval behavior with tests.
Use when adding or changing a general-purpose AI-Q tool (a NeMo Agent Toolkit function) under sources/, defining its FunctionBaseConfig schema, registering it with @register_function, wiring it into an agent's tools list, or testing it.
Use when composing, adapting, or validating an AI-Q workflow YAML under configs/ — selecting a shipped profile, enabling tools and data_source_registry sources, wiring agents and the chat_deepresearcher_agent workflow, configuring general.telemetry (Phoenix, LangSmith, Weave, OTEL) and general.front_end aiq_api settings, and pre-flighting cross-references before deploy or serve. Hand off deploy to aiq-deploy, live research to aiq-research, prompt/model edits to aiq-customize-prompts-models, and new source code to aiq-add-tool or aiq-add-data-source.
Use when customizing AI-Q agent behavior through Jinja2 prompt templates or per-agent model selection — editing prompts under src/aiq_agent/agents/*/prompts/, adding template variables, or assigning/swapping LLMs per agent role via config (the llms section plus per-agent fields like orchestrator_llm, planner_llm, researcher_llm, writer_llm, source_router_llm).
