jetson-customize-nvpmodel

What problem does it solve?

Manually editing Jetson nvpmodel power mode configurations is error-prone, risks breaking boot defaults, and requires tracking changes across multiple carrier-specific config files, leading to inconsistent power behavior across different Jetson/Tegra SKUs.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Validated Power Mode Edits: Add, remove, or edit power modes with enforced validation of frequency clamps against kernel available_frequencies tables, and required use of NVIDIA Power Estimator for non-trivial envelope changes.
• Cross-Config Propagation: Automatically propagate structural changes to all carrier-derived and super-mode nvpmodel configs to ensure consistent behavior across all supported SKUs, while preserving super-mode elevated frequency caps.
• Use Case: A Jetson Orin developer needs to add a custom 30W power mode from the NVIDIA Power Estimator and set it as the boot default for their custom carrier board, without manually editing multiple config files or risking invalid frequency values that cause boot failures.

Quick Start

Use the jetson-customize-nvpmodel skill to add a new 30W power mode from your downloaded NVIDIA Power Estimator config file and set it as the boot default for your active Jetson target.
