vllm-ascend-workspace: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/ascend-operator-debug/SKILL.md

ascend-operator-debug is a skill for Codex from maoxx241/vllm-ascend-workspace. It costs 91 tokens per session (589 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A debugging workflow that reduces an Ascend model failure to one operator call and tests it against a reference implementation. An operator is a low-level computation such as a tensor transformation or mathematical operation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate Ascend operator crashes and dtype, shape, layout, or execution-mode issues, create a focused reproducer, record case results, and add the smallest failing case as a regression test.
Why use it?
A failure in a complete model does not prove that one operator is responsible; isolating the call reveals whether the issue is a crash, unsupported input, numerical mismatch, or integration problem.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ascend-operator-debug scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/operator_debug.py, tests/test_operator_debug.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Ascend Operator Debug

Turn a suspected operator failure into a portable reproducer and an explicit case matrix. A model-level symptom is not an operator bug until the isolated call reproduces it.

Workflow

  1. Capture the failing call's operator name, arguments, input metadata, execution mode, environment, and source stack without copying full tensors by default.
  2. Define a trusted reference implementation and tolerances before comparing.
  3. Create an explicit case matrix with scripts/operator_debug.py plan.
  4. Run the generated cases on a remote Ascend environment. Change one dimension at a time: dtype, shape, layout, mode, or operator option.
  5. Record each normalized result with record.
  6. Run analyze to separate numerical mismatch, crash, unsupported combination, missing evidence, and operator-pass/integration-fail outcomes.
  7. Add the smallest failing case as a regression test, then rerun the original model integration after the operator fix.

Entry point

scripts/operator_debug.py provides:

  • plan: validate the explicit case matrix and create the evidence layout;
  • record: accept one result for a planned case without overwriting evidence;
  • analyze: summarize failure axes and create a Run Manifest-linked report.

Read only the reference needed for the current phase:

Boundaries

  • This skill begins after evidence identifies one operator boundary or the user explicitly supplies an operator reproducer.
  • Whole-model eager-versus-graph localization belongs to vllm-ascend-graph-debug; hand off only after one operator call is isolated.
  • Rank-dependent and collective failures belong to vllm-ascend-distributed-debug.
  • Model-level throughput regressions belong to performance workflows. An optional operator timing value here is only supporting evidence for the isolated case.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
