Accelerator Agents is a collection of AI-powered tools designed to accelerate machine learning development on Google Cloud TPUs. This repository hosts agents that assist with code migration, kernel optimization, and performance tuning, enabling developers to leverage the full power of TPUs with greater velocity.

As machine learning models grow in complexity, optimizing them for specific hardware accelerators like TPUs becomes increasingly challenging. This project aims to provide a suite of "Agents"—specialized AI tools powered by Gemini—to automate and assist with these complex tasks.

The project includes two primary agents:

The MaxCode agent facilitates the conversion of existing PyTorch models and codebases into JAX. It is designed to help users migrate their workloads to run efficiently on TPUs, leveraging high-performance frameworks like MaxText.

Note: MaxCode is under active development, and we are continuously working to improve migration quality and expand model coverage.

Features:

• Automated Conversion: Converts functional code blocks and model layers from PyTorch to JAX.
• MaxText Integration: Generates JAX code compatible with the MaxText framework for immediate training and inference on TPUs.
• Human-in-the-Loop: Designed to draft initial implementations that developers can review and refine.

The MaxKernel agent is a specialized tool for high-performance kernel development on TPUs. It assists engineers in writing, optimizing, and debugging custom kernels, specifically focusing on Pallas (JAX's kernel language).

Features:

• Kernel Writing: Drafts Pallas kernels from scratch or based on JAX reference implementations.
• CUDA to Pallas Conversion: Assists in porting custom CUDA/GPU kernels to run optimally on TPUs.
• Optimization & Profiling: Provides profiling insights and optimization suggestions to improve kernel performance (MFU).
• Test Harness Generation: Automatically generates boilerplate code for correctness testing and compilation checks.

• A Google Cloud VM. A CPU-only VM is sufficient for MaxCode, while a TPU VM is recommended for MaxKernel.
• Python 3.11+
• Access to Gemini API (for agent reasoning capabilities).
