What it does

Autows Docs is an agent skill from facebookexperimental/triton, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Consult and maintain AutoWS documentation. Use BEFORE exploring AutoWS source code — when investigating, planning, or modifying files under WarpSpecialization/, partition scheduling, warpspecialize ops, WSCodePartition, WSDataPartition, WSTaskPartition, WSMemoryPlanner, or related passes. Also use AFTER making non-trivial changes to AutoWS code to keep docs in sync.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Github mirror of trition-lang/triton repo. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/autows-docs”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the matching doc(s) from the table above.
  2. Then explore source files, guided by what the docs describe.
  3. If no doc matches your task, read docs/Overview.md for the pipeline

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 612bd83. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Autows Docs loads about 968 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 413 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~968

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Consult and maintain AutoWS documentation. Use BEFORE exploring AutoWS source code — when investigating, planning, or modifying files under WarpSpecialization/, partition scheduling, warp_specialize ops, WSCodePartition, WSDataPartition, WSTaskPartition, WSMemoryPlanner, or related passes. Also use AFTER making non-trivial changes to AutoWS code to keep docs in sync.

AutoWS Documentation

AutoWS has comprehensive design docs that live alongside the source code at:

third_party/nvidia/hopper/lib/Transforms/WarpSpecialization/docs/

CRITICAL: Read docs BEFORE reading source

When investigating or planning changes to AutoWS code, always read the relevant docs first before exploring the source files. The docs explain the design intent, invariants, and relationships between passes — information that is difficult to reconstruct from code alone. Reading docs first will:

  • Give you the correct mental model before diving into implementation details
  • Identify which files are relevant so you search less
  • Surface invariants and edge cases that aren't obvious from code
How to find the right doc

Use the file map below to match your task to the relevant doc(s):

If you're working on...Read this doc first
Overall pipeline, pass orderingdocs/Overview.md
Task ID assignment (Hopper)docs/TaskPartitionAndPropagation.md
Splitting ops across warp groupsdocs/DataPartition.md
Channel insertion, async copies, barriersdocs/CodePartition.md
Code specialization / cloning into regionsdocs/CodeSpecialization.md
SMEM/TMEM allocation, multi-bufferingdocs/BufferAllocation.md, docs/AccumulationCounters.md, docs/SmemAllocationDesign.md

Workflow
  1. Read the matching doc(s) from the table above.
  2. Then explore source files, guided by what the docs describe.
  3. If no doc matches your task, read docs/Overview.md for the pipeline context and file map, then proceed to source.

CRITICAL: Update docs AFTER non-trivial code changes

When you make changes to AutoWS code that go beyond a simple bug fix, you must update the corresponding documentation. Specifically, update docs when:

  • Adding a new pass or file: Add an entry to docs/Overview.md (file map and pipeline diagram) and create a new doc if the pass is substantial.
  • Changing pass behavior or invariants: Update the doc that describes that pass to reflect the new behavior.
  • Adding or changing data structures: Update the doc that references those structures.
  • Changing the pipeline order: Update docs/Overview.md.
  • Adding new concepts or terminology: Document them in the relevant doc or create a new one if no existing doc fits.

Do NOT update docs for:

  • Pure bug fixes that don't change documented behavior
  • Code style / refactoring that preserves semantics
Doc conventions
  • Docs live in third_party/nvidia/hopper/lib/Transforms/WarpSpecialization/docs/
  • Each doc covers one logical area (one pass or closely related group of passes)
  • Docs should explain why, not just what — design rationale matters
  • Include the file(s) the doc covers at the top
  • Use code snippets or IR examples to illustrate transformations
