Doca Aes Gcm

Category: Security  ·  Sub-category: crypto-keymgmt  ·  Last updated:
Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA AES-GCM work on a BlueField DPU or ConnectX NIC — configuring `doca_aes_gcm_task_encrypt` / `_task_decrypt`, querying `doca_aes_gcm_cap_*` for per-key-type (only `DOCA_AES_GCM_KEY_128` / `_256` — AES-192 not supported) and per-task support, sizing plaintext against the max-buf cap, setting source / destination mmap permissions, validating with a NIST GCMVS or RFC 5288 vector, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* including the security-critical tag-verification-failed outcome on decrypt. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "DOCA AES-GCM" or "AEAD" — typical implicit phrasings: "decrypt completion IO_FAILED", "auth tag isn't verifying", "NOT_PERMITTED on my encrypt buffer", "is AES-192-GCM on this BlueField" (no), or "encrypted record came back tampered". Refuse and route elsewhere for non-GCM AES modes (CBC / CTR / XTS — CPU OpenSSL), key management (KMS / HSM / rotation), SHA (doca-sha), or general AEAD background.

From the source SKILL.md

Where to start: This skill assumes DOCA is already installed and the user is doing hands-on AES-GCM-acceleration work on a BlueField / ConnectX / host with DOCA. Open [TASKS.md](TASKS.md) if the user wants to do something (configure / build / modify / run / test / debug); open [CAPABILITIES.md](CAPABILITIES.md) when the question is what can DOCA AES-GCM express on this version. If the user has not installed DOCA yet, route to [doca-setup](../../doca-setup/SKILL.md) first. If the user is asking "should I even use the accelerator for this encryption?", the path-selection rule in…

What this skill does

Doca Aes Gcm is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the crypto-keymgmt sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/doca-aes-gcm/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Doca Aes Gcm Claude Code skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 159,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Doca Aes Gcm Claude Code skill?
Install via the ClaudSkills desktop app (one click) or copy SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/doca-aes-gcm/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.
What does the Doca Aes Gcm skill do?
Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA AES-GCM work on a BlueField DPU or ConnectX NIC — configuring `doca_aes_gcm_task_encrypt` / `_task_decrypt`, querying `doca_aes_gcm_cap_*` for per-key-type (only `DOCA_AES_GCM_KEY_128` / `_256` — AES-192 not supported) and per-task support, sizing plaintext against the max-buf cap, setting source / destination mmap permissions, validating with a NIST GCMVS or RFC 5288 vector, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* including the security-critical tag-verification-failed outcome on decrypt.

Refuse and route elsewhere for non-GCM AES modes (CBC / CTR / XTS — CPU OpenSSL), key management (KMS / HSM / rotation), SHA (doca-sha), or general AEAD background.
Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Doca Aes Gcm skill?
Use Doca Aes Gcm when your Claude Code task falls under the Security category — specifically in the crypto keymgmt area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Doca Aes Gcm" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/security/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Doca Aes Gcm skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Doca Aes Gcm is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Security category.
