Use this skill when the user is invoking `doca_spcx_cc` (the host-side CLI under /opt/mellanox/doca/tools/) to load, parameterize, start, observe, or stop a Programmable Congestion Control (SPCX) algorithm on a BlueField with a DPA processor against a live RDMA / RoCE fabric, or picking SPCX vs the established `doca-pcc` surface. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA SPCX" or "doca_spcx_cc" — typical implicit phrasings include "I want to write a custom RTT-based CC algorithm for my RoCE

Where to start: This is a tool skill for invoking
doca_spcx_cc — the documented host-side CLI that exercises
an SPCX-class Programmable Congestion Control algorithm on a
live RDMA / RoCE fabric driven by a BlueField with a DPA
processor. Open TASKS.md and start at
## configure for the
SPCX-vs-PCC-vs-factory-firmware decision tree (load-bearing
gate before any code), the role decision (RP / NP), the
DPA-side algorithm authoring vs consumption split, and the
live-link / contention precondition. Open
CAPABILITIES.md when the question is
what does SPCX let me express that doca-pcc does not,
what is the SPCX-vs-PCC tradeoff, what runtime metrics
does the tool surface, or what is the safety posture for
loading a custom CC algorithm on a production fabric. If
DOCA is not installed yet, route to
doca-setup first.
This skill is the next-gen programmable-CC surface.
doca-pcc is the established
PCC story; SPCX is the documented extension that authors
SPCX-class algorithms on the same DPA hardware substrate.
doca-pcc-ztr-rttcc-algo
is one shipped reference algorithm (zero-touch RTT-based
CC) that can be loaded through either the PCC or SPCX path
depending on the install and the user's algorithm choice;
the agent surfaces this decision tree explicitly per
