NVIDIA CUDA Reference

Use this skill as the source of truth for CUDA, PTX, NVIDIA GPU architecture, and NVIDIA profiling or debugging tools. Prefer the local official-document snapshots, then verify against NVIDIA's current online documentation when a fact is version-sensitive or absent locally.

For DSL- or library-specific implementation, use the corresponding skill first:

• Triton or Gluon kernel code: triton-skill
• CUTLASS, CuTe, or CuTeDSL code: cutlass-skill

Add this skill when those tasks require CUDA API, PTX ISA, architecture, or NVIDIA tool facts.

Locate the references

Resolve the directory containing this SKILL.md, then use its references/ child. Do not assume a Cursor, Claude, or Codex-specific install path.

In examples below, set a task-scoped variable to the resolved absolute path:

CUDA_REFS=/absolute/path/to/cuda-skill/references
