amd-kernel-optimization

amd-kernel-optimization is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wenyi-li/awesome-agent-kernel-skills. It costs 90 tokens per session (1,992 once invoked), scanned B, original, no licence file.

A guide for reducing the time and increasing the processing rate of PyTorch model inference on AMD GPUs. It covers profiling and optimization work for operations such as matrix multiplication, attention, and custom GPU kernels using ROCm.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to benchmark, profile, analyze, implement, and verify optimizations for PyTorch models on MI250, MI300, or MI350 hardware.
Why use it?
It helps identify where AMD GPU inference is slow and verify whether code changes improve it.

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 B, and why

amd-kernel-optimization scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
