triton-cuda-debugging

triton-cuda-debugging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mindspore-ai/akg. It costs 66 tokens per session (2,279 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A troubleshooting checklist for Triton CUDA kernels, covering compilation failures, runtime errors, incorrect results, and performance problems. It includes checks for memory bounds, indexing, shapes, concurrency, and launch settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose Triton compilation errors, CUDA crashes, shape mismatches, data races, numerical issues, and slow kernels.
Why use it?
GPU kernel errors can come from invalid memory access, unsupported control flow, wrong strides, or unsafe parallel writes. The checklist narrows down these causes and suggests corrections.

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

triton-cuda-debugging 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 7d ago.

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.

调试与排查清单

完整调试清单

内存访问问题

  • 所有 load/store 是否都有 mask 或 boundary_check?
  • stride 参数设置是否正确?
  • 数组索引是否越界?
  • 是否使用了 .contiguous() 确保内存连续?
  • 2D 数据是否使用了 tl.make_block_ptr
  • 内存访问是否合并(coalesced)?

控制流检查

  • 是否误用了 return/break/continue?
  • 复杂条件是否用 mask 组合实现?
  • tl.constexpr 是否只在内核参数中使用?
  • 是否有 lambda 表达式(不支持)?

Grid 与 Block 配置检查

  • BLOCK_SIZE 是否为 2 的幂?
  • num_warps 是否合理(2-8)?
  • num_stages 是否合理(2-5)?
  • Grid 总大小是否不超过硬件限制?

并发与原子操作检查

  • 并发写入是否使用了原子操作(tl.atomic_add 等)?
  • 原子操作是否必要(能否避免)?
  • 是否有数据竞争(多个程序写同一位置)?

性能优化检查

  • 是否使用了 autotune?
  • MatMul 是否使用了 Grouped Ordering?
  • 是否使用 float32 进行中间累加?
  • Reduce 操作是否有数值稳定性处理?

分类调试流程

1. 编译失败

步骤:

  1. 检查错误信息中的关键词(return, break, lambda)
  2. 查看是否使用了不支持的语法
  3. 参考"API 使用限制"部分修改代码

triton-cuda-debugging is a skill published in the GitHub repository mindspore-ai/akg (259 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 2,279 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
