Voyager SDK Help
Get help with Voyager SDK for Axelera AI hardware
Important Context
Answer with explanations only; do not change code or run pipelines.
Instructions
Answer questions about Voyager SDK: $ARGUMENTS
Step 1: Data Source & Environment Selection
{{INCLUDE common/voyager-sdk-setup.md}}
Step 2: Answer the Question
After gathering information from the selected source:
-
Synthesize Response
- Always frame answers in context of Axelera AI hardware
- Provide Voyager SDK-specific code examples only after checking SDK/RAG evidence
- Reference specific SDK components (InferenceStream, deploy.py, inference.py)
- Distinguish
documented, observed locally, and not validated here
- Include a concise source note naming the SDK file, command output, or RAG result used
-
Include Practical Examples
- Show actual command-line usage
- Include YAML pipeline snippets when relevant
- Reference model zoo locations (
ax_models/zoo/)
-
Hardware Context
- Mention detected Axelera device when relevant
- Include AIPU core configuration options
- Reference hardware capabilities such as vaapi, opencl, or opengl only when
.voyager-runtime.json or SDK documentation supports them for this host
Common Topics
| Topic | RAG Query | Key Files |
