Inference Kernel Whitebox Debug

Agent skill
1 skill

White-box debug a custom CUDA/CUTLASS kernel producing a WRONG numeric result (over-amplification, NaN, coherence) after black-box bisection is EXHAUSTED: every external lever varied (grid, pipeline depth, layout, dtype), the result deterministic + lever-independent, yet the structure reads correct. Two tracks: (A) an in-kernel operand + accumulator trace (if constexpr-gated to survive megakernel pipelining), (B) a standalone reproducer .cu instantiating the EXACT kernel template + TMA descriptors with controlled inputs (all-ones then real-dump) vs a host GEMM. Localizes the defect to operand-load vs MMA vs epilogue vs descriptor. Escalation tier above inference-kernel-ncu-profile when H/P are fine but the output is numerically wrong. Triggers on "white-box kernel", "kernel over-amplifies / NaN", "standalone reproducer", "in-kernel trace", "operand dump", "cutlass UMMA bug", or any combination of "white-box / reproducer / in-kernel / operand-trace" with "kernel / cutlass / UMMA / megakernel / vllm".
