Overview
What It Does
Doca Compress packages a focused communication workflow for an AI agent. Use this skill for hands-on DOCA Compress programming on a BlueField DPU, ConnectX NIC, or host with DOCA — enabling compress-deflate, decompress-deflate, decompress-lz4-stream, or decompress-lz4-block tasks on a doca_compress context (the hardware supports DEFLATE both directions plus LZ4 decompress; LZ4 encode is NOT supported), sizing source / destination doca_buf against the per-task cap query, setting mmap permissions, deciding offload vs CPU zlib / zstd, validating with a round-trip smoke, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* from a Compress call. Trigger on phrasings like "offload this gzip", "decompress incoming network data", "compress task returns INVALID_VALUE on alloc_init", "submitted a task but no completion arrives", or "decompress LZ4 on the BlueField." Refuse and route elsewhere for non-DEFLATE / non-LZ4 algorithms (zstd / Snappy / brotli), LZ4 encode (route to a CPU LZ4 library), pure mmap-to-mmap copies (doca-dma), or DOCA Core lifecycle internals. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
