perf-nsight-compute-analysis

perf-nsight-compute-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wenyi-li/awesome-agent-kernel-skills. It costs 80 tokens per session (3,649 once invoked), scanned B, original, no licence file.

A guide for analyzing NVIDIA Nsight Compute reports, which contain detailed measurements from individual GPU kernels. It covers bottleneck classification, memory use, occupancy, and warp stalls.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect .ncu-rep files, perform roofline analysis, diagnose occupancy, and study memory hierarchy or warp-stall problems.
Why use it?
It helps explain why a GPU kernel is slow by connecting profiling measurements to compute limits, memory limits, or stalled work.

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

perf-nsight-compute-analysis 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 9d 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.

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

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.

perf-nsight-compute-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository wenyi-li/awesome-agent-kernel-skills (9 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 3,649 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
