cuda-profiling SKILL.md skillA

cuda-profiling from outlinedriven/outline-driven-development is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add outlinedriven/outline-driven-development/cuda-profiling@git:20260905.fd53e99

Pins git:20260905.fd53e99 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when profiling CUDA with Nsight Systems or Nsight Compute, reading roofline and occupancy metrics, or annotating phases with NVTX. Not for correctness: use cuda-debugging.

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

# CUDA profiling

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | A CUDA kernel or pipeline is slow or unexplained, and the job is timeline capture, per-kernel metrics, roofline reading, occupancy analysis, or NVTX annotation. |
| Authority | Reversible local. Writes are limited to profiler reports and logs under the project tree; rollback is deleting those files. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Report files (`.nsys-rep`, `.ncu-rep`, CSV), possibly elevated-privilege profiling runs, and a diagnosis. |
| Done | The bottleneck is named with a measured metric, and the recommended fix targets that measurement. |

## Inputs

1. Workload (required): the application or kernel to profile and one representative input.
2. Question (required): timeline overlap, per-kernel cost, occupancy, or memory versus compute balance.
3. GPU and toolkit (required): `nvidia-smi` and `nvcc --version`. Grounded current stable: CUDA Toolkit 13.3 Update 1.
4. Profiling permissions (required on locked-down hosts): membership checks in step 7.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add outlinedriven/outline-driven-development/cuda-profiling@sha256:0535cd60e9ffda92

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.fd53e99, 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.
