dfx-analyze SKILL.md skillA

dfx-analyze from hw-native-sys/simpler is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add hw-native-sys/simpler/dfx-analyze@git:20260804.b3bf3e7

Pins git:20260804.b3bf3e7 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Analyze an onboard run's performance/scheduling/dependency/dump data using simpler's BUILT-IN DFX tools (simpler_setup.tools.*) instead of hand-rolling instrumentation. Use AFTER an onboard run when you need per-run device timing (Total/Orch/Sched), AICPU scheduler-overhead / Tail-OH breakdown, the task dependency graph, scope ring-fill peaks, or to inspect args dumps. These are simpler's own tools (shipped in the wheel), distinct from any cross-repo workload. Reach for this before writing…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Analyze DFX data (simpler's own tools)

simpler already ships end-user analysis CLIs under `simpler_setup.tools` —
**use them; do not re-invent timing/instrumentation in the runtime.** Canonical
reference (tool flags, examples, output paths): `simpler_setup/tools/README.md`.
Per-DFX docs: `docs/dfx/` (`l2-timing.md`, `sched-overhead-model.md`,
`chip-swimlane-profiling.md`, `scope-stats.md`, `dep-gen.md`, `args-dump.md`).

## Pick the tool by question

| You want… | Tool | Needs |
| --------- | ---- | ----- |
| Per-run **Host / Device / Effective / Orch / Sched** timing | `strace_timing --rounds-table` | nothing extra — `[STRACE]` markers are on stderr (`SIMPLER_HOST_STRACE`, compile-time default on, **NOT** gated by swimlane) |
| AICPU **scheduler overhead / Tail-OH / critical-path** breakdown | `sched_overhead_analysis` | a `--enable-chip-swimlane` (level≥3) run + `--enable-dep-gen` run |
| Swimlane → **Perfetto** Chrome trace | `swimlane_converter` | `--enable-chip-swimlane` run (`--overhead` track needs deps.json too) |
| Task **dependency graph** (text / HTML) | `deps_viewer` | `--enable-dep-gen` run → `deps.json` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hw-native-sys/simpler/dfx-analyze@sha256:7002f571fcc5e57b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260804.b3bf3e7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
