Show HN: Agentic CUDA Kernel Optimizer

Hello; I was working on optimizing some CUDA kernels and I thought may be it is a good oppurtunity learn langgraph as well. I created a simple C++ CUDA Test Harness and handed that to AI agents. They can run kernels, get benchmarks, and even can profile via nsight

Very cool. Did you also try using the karpathy autoresearch? How do you think this compares?

respect for shipping something this technical solo, this is the kind of project that usually needs a team to even validate correctness. how are you handling regression testing across kernel variants, feels like the hardest part of an agentic optimizer isn't finding a faster kernel, it's proving the faster one didn't quietly break something
