SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It captures a concise, read-only snapshot of a running Jetson device so you can verify the software stack and power state without hunting for commands.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Confirms the Jetson model and verifies that the skill is running on a Jetson target.
  • Reports L4T release, power mode, kernel version, uptime, and OS version in a consistent report.
  • Useful before benchmarking, regression testing, and baseline documentation for newly flashed devices.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to run the Jetson print-device-info skill on the connected device and return the model, L4T release, power mode, kernel, uptime, and OS version.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get Jetson system info like L4T release and power mode?▼

To get Jetson system info, use this skill to capture a read-only snapshot reporting the L4T release, power mode, kernel version, and OS version from local system files. It consolidates diagnostic data into a single consistent report.

What's the best way to verify Jetson device hardware and OS configuration before benchmarking?▼

The best way to verify Jetson device hardware before benchmarking is to capture a baseline snapshot confirming the model, L4T release, and power state. This skill reads /proc/device-tree/model and nvpmodel to document the exact device configuration.

Does checking Jetson nvpmodel power mode require root access?▼

Checking Jetson nvpmodel power mode does not require root access, as this skill performs a read-only capture of the device state. It accesses standard system utilities and files like /etc/nv_tegra_release and uname without modifying the target.

Can I use this Jetson diagnostic tool to check uptime and kernel version remotely?▼

You can use this Jetson diagnostic tool to check uptime and kernel version by running it locally on the target device. It requires direct local access to system paths like /proc/device-tree and commands including uname and lsb_release to gather the data.

What system files are needed to retrieve Jetson L4T release and OS version info?▼

To retrieve Jetson L4T release and OS version info, the system requires access to /etc/nv_tegra_release and /etc/os-release or lsb_release. It also reads /proc/device-tree/model to confirm the specific Jetson hardware model.

Why does my Jetson device snapshot report fail to return model information?▼

A Jetson device snapshot report fails to return model information if the target lacks local access to /proc/device-tree/model. This skill depends on reading that specific path to confirm the hardware model and verify it is running on a Jetson system.
