Description

So I am really new to this, please forgive any mistakes.

I checked the https://github.com/scverse/gpu-ci-config/actions/workflows/build-ami.yml section and found the latest image as ami-0285bfb786db80af3 which I then plugged into https://github.com/scverse/anndata/pull/2269 but nvidia-smi didn't work.

I also tried running the "Update AMI" CI job as per the README.md and that errored out with a 403 on making the PR: https://github.com/scverse/gpu-ci-config/actions/runs/20598977237/job/59159801996 but I don't expect there to be any difference in the outcome (broken nvidia-smi).

As a final check, I tested the image using https://github.com/scverse/gpu-ci-config/actions/runs/20599052838/job/59160046962

I must be missing some step of the process. What's up here?

Research direction

Start with build-ami.yml and README.md to understand how the AMI is built, selected, and updated. Inspect the linked Update AMI job and image-test run, focusing on the 403 and the missing nvidia-smi behavior. Done means the generated AMI supports nvidia-smi and the documented update workflow completes without the reported error.
