-# tinygrad agents
-
-Hello agent. You are one of the most talented programmers of your generation.
-
-You are looking forward to putting those talents to use to improve tinygrad.
-
-## philosophy
-
-tinygrad is a **tensor** library focused on beauty and minimalism, while still matching the functionality of PyTorch and JAX.
-
-Every line must earn its keep. Prefer readability over cleverness. We believe that if carefully designed, 10 lines can have the impact of 1000.
-
-Never mix functionality changes with whitespace changes. All functionality changes must be tested.
-
-## style
-
-Use **2-space indentation**, and keep lines to a maximum of **150 characters**. Match the existing style.

-# Claude Code Guide for tinygrad
-
-## Architecture Overview
-
-tinygrad compiles tensor operations into optimized kernels. The pipeline:
-
-1. **Tensor** (`tensor.py`) - User-facing API, creates UOp graph
-2. **UOp** (`uop/ops.py`) - Unified IR for all operations (both tensor and kernel level)
-3. **Schedule** (`engine/schedule.py`, `schedule/`) - Converts tensor UOps to kernel UOps
-4. **Codegen** (`codegen/`) - Converts kernel UOps to device code
-5. **Runtime** (`runtime/`) - Device-specific execution
-
-## Key Concepts
-
-### UOp (Universal Operation)
-Everything is a UOp - tensors, operations, buffers, kernels. Key properties:
-- `op`: The operation type (Ops enum)
-- `dtype`: Data type
-- `src`: Tuple of source UOps
-- `arg`: Operation-specific argument
-- `tag`: Optional tag for graph transformations
-
-UOps are **immutable and cached** - creating the same UOp twice returns the same object (ucache).
-
-### PatternMatcher
-Used extensively for graph transformations:
-```python
-pm = PatternMatcher([
-  (UPat(Ops.ADD, src=(UPat.cvar("x"), UPat.cvar("x"))), lambda x: x * 2),
-])
-result = graph_rewrite(uop, pm)
-```
-
-### Schedule Cache
-Schedules are cached by graph structure. BIND nodes (variables with bound values) are unbound before cache key computation so different values hit the same cache.
-
-## Testing
-
-```bash
-# Run specific test
-python -m pytest test/unit/test_schedule_cache.py -xvs
-
-# Run with timeout
-python -m pytest test/backend/test_symbolic_ops.py -x --timeout=60
-
-# Debug with print
-DEBUG=2 python -m pytest test/backend/test_schedule.py::test_name -xvs
-
-# Visualize UOp graphs
-VIZ=1 python -c "from tinygrad import Tensor; Tensor.ones(10).sum().realize()"
-```
-
-## Common Environment Variables
-
-- `DEBUG=1-7` - Increasing verbosity (7 shows assembly output)
-- `VIZ=1` - Enable graph visualization
-- `SPEC=1` - Enable UOp spec verification
-- `NOOPT=1` - Disable optimizations
-- `DEVICE=CPU/CUDA/AMD/METAL` - Set default device
-
-## Debugging Tips
-
-1. **Print UOp graphs**: `print(tensor.uop)` or `print(tensor.uop.sink())`
-2. **Check schedule**: `tensor.schedule()` returns list of ExecItems
-3. **Trace graph rewrites**: Use `VIZ=1` or add print in PatternMatcher callbacks
-4. **Find UOps by type**: `[u for u in uop.toposort() if u.op is Ops.SOMETHING]`
-
-## Workflow Rules
-
-- **NEVER commit without explicit user approval** - always show the diff and wait for approval
-- **NEVER amend commits** - always create a new commit instead
-- Run `pre-commit run --all-files` before committing to catch linting/type errors
-- Run tests before proposing commits
-- Test with `SPEC=2` when modifying UOp-related code
-
-## Auto-generated Files (DO NOT EDIT)
-
-The following files are auto-generated and should never be edited manually:
-- `tinygrad/runtime/autogen/amd/{arch}/__init__.py` - Generated by `python -m tinygrad.renderer.amd.dsl --arch {arch}`
-- `tinygrad/runtime/autogen/amd/{arch}/gen_pcode.py` - Generated by `python -m tinygrad.renderer.amd.pcode --arch {arch}`
-
-Where `{arch}` is one of: `rdna3`, `rdna4`, `cdna`
-
-To add missing instruction implementations, add them to `tinygrad/renderer/amd/emu.py` instead.
-
-## Style Notes
-
-- 2-space indentation, 150 char line limit
-- PatternMatchers should be defined at module level (slow to construct)
-- Prefer `graph_rewrite` over manual graph traversal
-- UOp methods like `.replace()` preserve tags unless explicitly changed
-- Use `.rtag(value)` to add tags to UOps
-
-## Lessons Learned
-
-### UOp ucache Behavior
-UOps are cached by their contents - creating a UOp with identical (op, dtype, src, arg) returns the **same object**. This means:
-- `uop.replace(tag=None)` on a tagged UOp returns the original untagged UOp if it exists in cache
-- Two UOps with same structure are identical (`is` comparison works)
-
-### Spec Validation
-When adding new UOp patterns, update `tinygrad/uop/spec.py`. Test with:
-```bash
-SPEC=2 python3 test/unit/test_something.py
-```
-Spec issues appear as `RuntimeError: SPEC ISSUE None: UOp(...)`.
-
-### Schedule Cache Key Normalization
-The schedule cache strips values from BIND nodes so different bound values (e.g., KV cache positions) hit the same cache entry:
-- `pm_pre_sched_cache`: BIND(DEFINE_VAR, CONST) → BIND(DEFINE_VAR) for cache key
-- `pm_post_sched_cache`: restores original BIND from context
-- When accessing `bind.src[1]`, check `len(bind.src) > 1` first (might be stripped)
-- Extract var_vals from `input_buffers` dict after graph_rewrite (avoids extra toposort)
-
-### Avoiding Extra Work
-- Use ctx dict from graph_rewrite to collect info during traversal instead of separate toposort
-- Only extract var_vals when schedule is non-empty (no kernels = no vars needed)
-- PatternMatchers are slow to construct - define at module level, not in functions
-
-### Readability Over Speed
-Don't add complexity for marginal performance gains. Simpler code that's slightly slower is often better:
-```python
-# BAD: "optimized" with extra complexity
-if has_afters:  # skip toposort if no AFTERs
-  after_map = [(u, u.buf_uop) for u in big_sink.toposort() if u.op is Ops.AFTER]
-
-# GOOD: simple, always works
-after_map = [(u, u.buf_uop) for u in big_sink.toposort() if u.op is Ops.AFTER]
-```
-The conditional check adds complexity, potential bugs, and often negligible speedup. Only optimize when profiling shows a real bottleneck.
-
-### Testing LLM Changes
-```bash
-# Quick smoke test
-echo "Hello" | DEBUG=1 python tinygrad/apps/llm.py --model "llama3.2:1b"
-
-# Check cache hits (should see "cache hit" after warmup)
-echo "Hello world" | DEBUG=1 python tinygrad/apps/llm.py --model "llama3.2:1b" 2>&1 | grep cache
-
-# Test with beam search
-echo "Hello" | BEAM=2 python tinygrad/apps/llm.py --model "llama3.2:1b"
-```
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Graph Transformation
-```python
-def my_transform(ctx, x):
-  # Return new UOp or None to skip
-  return x.replace(arg=new_arg)
-
-pm = PatternMatcher([
-  (UPat(Ops.SOMETHING, name="x"), my_transform),
-])
-result = graph_rewrite(input_uop, pm, ctx={})
-```
-
-### Finding Variables
-```python
-# Get all variables in a UOp graph
-variables = uop.variables()
-
-# Get bound variable values
-var, val = bind_uop.unbind()
-```
-
-### Shape Handling
-```python
-# Shapes can be symbolic (contain UOps)
-shape = tensor.shape  # tuple[sint, ...] where sint = int | UOp
-```
-
-## Performance Optimization
-
-When optimizing tinygrad internals:
-
-1. **Measure wall time, not just call counts** - Reducing `graph_rewrite` calls doesn't always improve wall time. The overhead of conditional checks can exceed the cost of the operation being skipped.
-
-2. **Profile each optimization individually** - Run benchmarks with and without each change to measure actual impact. Use `test/external/external_benchmark_schedule.py` for schedule/rewrite timing.
-
-3. **Early exits in hot paths are effective** - Simple checks like `if self.op is Ops.CONST: return self` in `simplify()` can eliminate many unnecessary `graph_rewrite` calls.
-
-4. **`graph_rewrite` is expensive** - Each call has overhead even for small graphs. Avoid calling it when the result is trivially known (e.g., simplifying a CONST returns itself).
-
-5. **Beware iterator overhead** - Checks like `all(x.op is Ops.CONST for x in self.src)` can be slower than just running the operation, especially for small sequences.

-6. **Verify cache hit rates before adding/keeping caches** - Measure actual hit rates with real workloads. A cache with 0% hit rate is pure overhead (e.g., `pm_cache` was removed because the algorithm guarantees each UOp is only passed to `pm_rewrite` once).
-
-7. **Use `TRACK_MATCH_STATS=2` to profile pattern matching** - This shows match rates and time per pattern. Look for patterns with 0% match rate that still cost significant time - these are pure overhead for that workload.
-
-8. **Cached properties beat manual traversal** - `backward_slice` uses `@functools.cached_property`. A DFS with early-exit sounds faster but is actually slower because it doesn't benefit from caching. The cache hit benefit often outweighs algorithmic improvements.
-
-9. **Avoid creating intermediate objects in hot paths** - For example, `any(x.op in ops for x in self.backward_slice)` is faster than `any(x.op in ops for x in {self:None, **self.backward_slice})` because it avoids dict creation.
-
-## Pattern Matching Analysis
-
-**Use the right tool:**
-
-- `TRACK_MATCH_STATS=2` - **Profiling**: identify expensive patterns
-- `VIZ=-1` - **Inspection**: see all transformations, what every match pattern does, the before/after diffs
-
-```bash
-TRACK_MATCH_STATS=2 PYTHONPATH="." python3 test/external/external_benchmark_schedule.py
-```
-
-Output format: `matches / attempts -- match_time / total_time ms -- location`
-
-Key patterns to watch (from ResNet50 benchmark):
-- `split_load_store`: ~146ms, 31% match rate - does real work
-- `simplify_valid`: ~75ms, 0% match rate in this workload - checks AND ops for INDEX in backward slice
-- `vmin==vmax folding`: ~55ms, 0.33% match rate - checks 52K ops but rarely matches
-
-Patterns with 0% match rate are workload-specific overhead. They may be useful in other workloads, so don't remove them without understanding their purpose.

+`DEV` is used to specify the target device, target renderer and target architecture for said device, separated by colons.
+Specifying the renderer and architecture is optional, omitting a preference will cause tinygrad to automatically determine a suitable setting.
+The `DEV` variable may also be used to specify the interface through which to access the device (eg. `PCI`, `USB`). Interfaces may be specified preceding the target triple,
+separated by a plus (eg. `DEV=USB+AMD:LLVM`). Similarly as above, the interface may be omitted. Example usage follows:
+
+`DEV` contents | Interpretation
+--- | ---
+AMD           | use the AMD device
+AMD:LLVM      | use the AMD device with the LLVM renderer
+NV:CUDA:sm_70 | use the NV device with the CUDA renderer targetting sm_70
+AMD::gfx950   | use the AMD device targetting gfx950
+USB+AMD       | use the AMD device over the USB interface

+# TinyGPU
+
+TinyGPU app lets you use AMD and NVIDIA GPUs on macOS over USB4/Thunderbolt with tinygrad.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- macOS (12.1+)
+- USB4/Thunderbolt port
+- A supported GPU (AMD RDNA3+ or NVIDIA Ampere+)
+
+## Setup
+
+### 1. Connect your GPU
+
+Plug the supported GPU into your Mac over USB4/Thunderbolt.
+
+### 2. Initiate the driver install
+
+> **Note:** If tinygrad is cloned but not installed, run commands with `PYTHONPATH=.`
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tinygrad/tinygrad/master/extra/setup_tinygpu_osx.sh | sh
+```
+
+This downloads TinyGPU.app and triggers a system prompt to install the driver extension.
+
+### 3. Enable the driver
+
+You should see a system prompt: **"TinyGPU" would like to use a new driver extension**. Click **Open System Settings** and toggle TinyGPU on.
+
+If you missed the prompt, go to **System Settings > General > Login Items & Extensions > Driver Extensions** and toggle TinyGPU on.
+
+### 4. Compiler Setup
+
+#### AMD
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tinygrad/tinygrad/master/extra/setup_hipcomgr_osx.sh | sh
+```
+
+#### NV
+
+Install [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/) if you don't have it.
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tinygrad/tinygrad/master/extra/setup_nvcc_osx.sh | sh
+```
+
+Make sure `~/.local/bin` is on your `PATH`:
+
+```bash
+export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
+```
+
+### 5. Use it!
+
+```bash
+DEV={AMD|NV} python3 tinygrad/apps/llm.py
+```
+
+**Note:** Use `JITBEAM=2` to search for faster kernels (one-time search cost, results cached).
