hyperpod-version-checker
Check and compare software component versions on SageMaker HyperPod cluster nodes - NVIDIA drivers, CUDA toolkit, cuDNN, NCCL, EFA, AWS OFI NCCL, GDRCopy, MPI, Neuron SDK (Trainium/Inferentia), Python, and PyTorch. Use when checking component versions, verifying CUDA/driver compatibility, detecting version mismatches across nodes, planning upgrades, documenting cluster configuration, or troubleshooting version-related issues on HyperPod. Triggers on requests about versions, compatibility, component checks, or upgrade planning for HyperPod clusters.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

What does the hyperpod-version-checker skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add awslabs/agent-plugins --skill hyperpod-version-checker --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From awslabs/agent-plugins, a repository with 850 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
