Skill1 starsChanged 6 months agoMITView on GitHub

Practical knowledge for optimizing inference for foundation models. Covers inference fundamentals (computational bottlenecks, online vs batch APIs, latency/throughput metrics), AI accelerators (GPUs, TPUs, computational/memory characteristics), model optimization (compression, speculative decoding, attention optimization, kernels/compilers), and service optimization (batching, prefill/decode separation, prompt caching, parallelism).

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

AI Inference Optimization

Knowledge from "AI Engineering" by Chip Huyen (Chapter 9). Practical techniques for making inference faster and cheaper.

Quick Start

  1. Check guidelines.md to find which files to load for your task
  2. Load only relevant files (each topic has knowledge.md, rules.md, examples.md)
  3. Apply guidance to your work

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
