Adds Liger Kernel support for a new HuggingFace Transformers model, or modifies existing monkey-patching. Generates lce_forward, monkey-patch function, tests, and README entry. Use when adding a new model to Liger Kernel, when a user asks to patch an unsupported model, when extending MODEL_TYPE_TO_APPLY_LIGER_FN, or when modifying/updating/fixing an existing monkey-patch (e.g., adding a new kernel to an already-supported model, fixing instance patching, updating a patch for upstream HF changes).
Develops production-ready Triton kernels for Liger Kernel. Creates new kernels from PyTorch operations (local files, URLs, code snippets, or natural language) with ops, module wrappers, functional APIs, unit tests, benchmarks, and plots. Also modifies existing Liger kernels. Use when adding a new Triton kernel, converting a PyTorch operation to Triton, or updating an existing Liger kernel.
Optimizes the performance of existing Liger Kernel Triton kernels. Profiles kernels, diagnoses bottlenecks (memory-bound vs compute-bound), generates multiple optimization variants with benchmarking, and applies the best variant while maintaining correctness. Supports GPU architecture-specific optimization (Ampere, Hopper, Blackwell). Use when a user asks to optimize, speed up, tune, profile, or reduce memory of an existing Liger kernel.
