Doca Programming Guide

Use this skill when the user is writing their first DOCA app or asking a library-agnostic programming question — picking a shipped sample to copy and modify, wiring the canonical pkg-config doca-{library} + meson build (or FFI from Rust / Go / Python against the public C ABI), walking the cfg-create → init → start → use → stop → destroy lifecycle, validating a spec before commit, or decoding a DOCA_ERROR_* return with doca_error_get_descr(). Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA programming guide" — implicit phrasings: "write my first DOCA program", "meson line for doca_rdma_*", "got DOCA_ERROR_BAD_STATE on my first call", "call DOCA from Rust without writing C", "built clean but nothing on the wire", "what order do doca_*_pipe calls go in". Refuse and route for install / hugepages / pkg-config not resolving doca-{library} (doca-setup), docs or version lookup (doca-public-knowledge-map), and library-internal API construction like Flow pipe topology or RDMA QP setup (matching library skill).

Overview

What It Does

Doca Programming Guide packages a focused communication workflow for an AI agent. Use this skill when the user is writing their first DOCA app or asking a library-agnostic programming question — picking a shipped sample to copy and modify, wiring the canonical pkg-config doca-{library} + meson build (or FFI from Rust / Go / Python against the public C ABI), walking the cfg-create → init → start → use → stop → destroy lifecycle, validating a spec before commit, or decoding a DOCA_ERROR_* return with doca_error_get_descr(). Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA programming guide" — implicit phrasings: "write my first DOCA program", "meson line for doca_rdma_*", "got DOCA_ERROR_BAD_STATE on my first call", "call DOCA from Rust without writing C", "built clean but nothing on the wire", "what order do doca_*_pipe calls go in". Refuse and route for install / hugepages / pkg-config not resolving doca-{library} (doca-setup), docs or version lookup (doca-public-knowledge-map), and library-internal API construction like Flow pipe topology or RDMA QP setup (matching library skill). 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.
