Overview
What It Does
Tao Run Inference Service packages a focused media & files workflow for an AI agent. Start, query, and stop a network-specific TAO inference microservice ({network_arch}-inference-microservice) by delegating container execution to the appropriate platform skill. Handles container image resolution, job-payload JSON construction, and the service registry. Use when the user wants to run inference on a TAO model checkpoint using a microservice container, deploy a TAO inference endpoint, or stop a running inference container. 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.
