cpp-hpc-optimization SKILL.md skillA
cpp-hpc-optimization from archibate/agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add archibate/agent-skills/cpp-hpc-optimization@git:20260920.c496075Pins git:20260920.c496075 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Evidence-driven C++ high-performance computing design, profiling, and optimization across algorithmic time/space complexity, data layout, cache and memory behavior, numerics, SIMD, multicore scheduling, and CPU/accelerator pipelines. Use before designing or changing computation-intensive kernels, high-throughput data structures, performance-critical loops, SIMD/OpenMP/TBB/CUDA code, mixed-precision or sparse representations, or when investigating throughput, latency, scaling, cache, bandwidth…
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
# C++ HPC Optimization Optimize the measured data path, not the code that merely looks low-level. Preserve a simple reference implementation and make every optimization earn its complexity with correctness evidence and a representative benchmark. ## Non-negotiable rules 1. **Define the contract first.** Record inputs, sizes, distributions, target hardware, accuracy, determinism, memory, latency, and throughput objectives. 2. **Pass the complexity gate.** Compare the best practical algorithmic families for the actual size range before tuning constants inside one family. 3. **Profile before kernel redesign.** Identify the hot path with end-to-end evidence. 4. **Keep an oracle.** Retain a scalar or otherwise obviously-correct reference implementation and compare every optimized path against it. 5. **Model before tuning.** Estimate useful operations, bytes transferred, working set, dependency depth, synchronization, and launch overhead. 6. **Change one axis at a time.** Measure after each transformation and revert changes that do not win on the target workload. 7. **Never encode a benchmark accident as a law.** Cache sizes, SIMD width, …

How to install
mdr add archibate/agent-skills/cpp-hpc-optimization@sha256:cc7f12af31b2f194The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260920.c496075, 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.
