Yue Shui, Chenyu Ma, Hangfei Xu, Shengzhao Wen, Yanpeng Wang/Harness Engineering for LLM-Driven GPU Kernel GenerationUnknown

Large language models (LLMs) can assist GPU kernel generation, but their practical effectiveness depends on whether generated code can be reliably constrained, validated, profiled, and selected. This paper presents a harness-centered system for LLM-driven GPU kernel optimization in the MLSys 2026 FlashInfer AI Kernel Generation Contest on NVIDIA Blackwell B200 GPUs. The system separates an evaluation harness from a profile-backed optimization controller: the harness enforces compilation, correctness, official-aligned timing, and artifact archival, while the controller turns profiler and workload evidence into bounded candidate-generation decisions. Human-authored skills capture operator constraints, references, profiling procedures, and promotion rules, while Codex and Claude Code agents generate candidate kernels inside those constraints. Across five operator definitions, the retained official-aligned artifacts achieved mean-latency speedups over supplied FlashInfer baselines of 1.62x, 18.05x, 29.68x, 1.12x, and 13.70x. The Agent-Assisted kernels outperform the Full-Agent artifacts across the evaluated definitions, indicating that expert-provided optimization directions, high-quality references, and workload context remain critical for reliable AI-driven kernel optimization.
