Description
Overview
Investigate using KernelBench in our current RL framework
The objective would be to get a pure cuda kernel C++ implementation of each python based kernel, compile it, verify and then find a baseline using NVIDIA's Nsight's (ncu) tool, once we have the base line we use common best practices of kernel optimization , and feed that as a prompt to a model, then implement the suggested response and repeat the process until we have a really performative kernel (as an example using Elapsed Cycles as the reward)

Research direction
Start by reviewing the current RL framework and the linked KernelBench project to determine how the Python-based kernels are represented and evaluated. Assess a path for producing, compiling, and verifying equivalent CUDA C++ kernels, then establish an Nsight ncu baseline and define what performance result would count as done.
