Install cuOpt C libraries and verify headers for GPU optimization.

  • Users need conda packages for C API installation and verification.
  • Skill requires NVIDIA drivers and CUDA 12.x or 13.x environments.
  • Agent executes find commands to locate headers and shared libraries.
  • Results display verification paths for libcuopt.so and cuopt_c.h files.

# cuOpt Installation — C API (user)

Install cuOpt to *use* it from C. Standalone skill (no separate common).

## System requirements

- **GPU**: NVIDIA Compute Capability ≥ 7.0 (Volta+). CUDA 12.x or 13.x.
- **Driver**: Compatible NVIDIA driver. Python and C are separate installables.

## conda (C / libcuopt)

```bash
conda install -c rapidsai -c conda-forge -c nvidia cuopt
# libcuopt is provided by the same channel; Python and C are separate packages.
```

## Verify C API

```bash
find $CONDA_PREFIX -name "cuopt_c.h"
find $CONDA_PREFIX -name "libcuopt.so"
```
