What this skill does
Nsight Graphics CLI Skill Command-line orchestration of official NVIDIA Nsight Graphics activities. Capabilities Probe installed Nsight binaries and compatibility mode Launch an application detached under Nsight Attach Nsight to a running PID Trigger Graphics Capture or OpenGL Frame Debugger capture Trigger GPU Trace capture, auto-export, and summarize Analyze existing .ngfx-capture files through ngfx-replay Report clear compatibility diagnostics for .ngfx-gputrace inputs Trigger Generate C++ Capture Commands doctor launch frame capture GPU Trace Replay analysis Generate C++ Capture Agent Notes Prefer doctor info first to discover the available compatibility mode. Use doctor versions to list detected installs when multiple Nsight Graphics versions exist. Use --nsight-path to force a specific install directory or ngfx.exe. Use --json for programmatic workflows. Prefer gpu-trace capture --auto-export --summarize for one-step performance triage. The summary includes exported table inventory, metric inventory, frame-budget classification, workload classification, throughput ranking, bottleneck hints, and warnings for empty event/regime tables. Use replay analyze when the input is an existing .ngfx-capture file. With no analysis switches it exports metadata, logs, captured log errors, and a replay performance report, then adds structured analysis.highlights / analysis.warnings. ngfx-replay documents its input as a Graphics Capture file. .ngfx-gputrace inputs are accepted for clear diagnostics, but on Nsight Graphics 2026.1.0 they may report Invalid file header; use gpu-trace summarize for exported GPU Trace table analysis. replay analyze uses official ngfx-replay metadata/log/screenshot/perf-report outputs; it is not a RenderDoc-style shader, pipeline, texture, or resource inspector. Frame/GPU/C++ capture commands require a launch target through --exe or a preconfigured root-level --project. …
