CUDA Specialist Skill
AI-powered CUDA development assistant integrating 4 specialist agents with comprehensive GPU development tools.
When Not To Use
- For high-level PyTorch model training that does not need custom kernels -- use the pytorch-ml skill instead
- For distributed neural network training in cloud sandboxes -- use the flow-nexus-neural skill instead
- For general Rust or C++ systems programming without GPU involvement -- use the rust-development skill instead
- For WebAssembly-based compute without GPU -- use the wasm-js skill instead
- For CPU-only performance profiling of swarm operations -- use the performance-analysis skill instead
Overview
The CUDA skill brings professional CUDA development capabilities to Claude Code through:
- 4 AI Specialist Agents: General, Optimizer, Debugger, Analyzer
- CUDA Compilation: nvcc integration with auto-architecture detection
- Kernel Analysis: Pattern detection and optimisation opportunities
- GPU Profiling: Performance measurement and bottleneck identification
- Code Generation: Create optimised kernels from specifications
