-Benchmark: SM103 (B300) FP4 Ultra GEMM vs SM100 (B200) NVFP4 GEMM
-===================================================================
-
-This benchmark compares the performance of the SM103-optimized FP4 Ultra
-GEMM kernel against the SM100 NVFP4 GEMM kernel, both running on B300
-hardware.  It also benchmarks the effect of Programmatic Dependent Launch
-(PDL) on the quant->GEMM pipeline, where the GEMM consumer can begin
-before the quant producer finishes.
-
-SM103 kernels use:
-  - K=768 tile (vs K=256 on SM100)
-  - FP4 Ultra MMA (UltraVs16) schedule
-  - NoSmemWarpSpecialized epilogue
-  - Sm103BlockScaledConfig scale factor layout
-
-PDL kernels additionally set:
-  - cudaLaunchAttributeProgrammaticStreamSerialization on quant (producer)
-  - CUTLASS launch_with_pdl=true on GEMM (enables overlap with next kernel)
-
-Usage:
-    python benchmarks/kernels/benchmark_nvfp4_sm103.py [--mode gemm|quant|e2e|pdl|all]
-
-Requirements:
-    - B300 GPU (SM103 / compute capability 10.3)
-    - CUDA >= 12.9
-    - vLLM built with ENABLE_NVFP4_SM100=1 and SM103 support

+# Editing Agent Instructions
+
+> Read this before modifying `AGENTS.md` or any guide it links to.
+
+## Token Budget Mindset
+
+`AGENTS.md` loads on every agent request; domain guides load on entry to a relevant area.
+Keep `AGENTS.md` under **200 lines** and each domain guide under **300 lines**.
+When a file exceeds its budget, split or prune — do not compress prose to fit.
+
+## When NOT to Add Content
+
+Before writing a new rule, ask whether it is actually needed:
+
+- **Agents already do it.** Test with a prompt first. If the agent behaves correctly without the rule, don't add it.
+- **One-off incident.** Prefer a code-level fix (lint rule, CI check, test assertion) over a new doc rule.
+- **Hardcoded paths.** File paths change; use "search for X" patterns instead.
+- **Upstream docs.** Don't reproduce pytest, ruff, or other tool docs — link to them.
+- **Contradicts an existing rule.** Search all linked guides before adding. If two rules conflict, consolidate into one.
+- **Already covered elsewhere.** Search `AGENTS.md` and every linked guide for overlapping guidance.
+
+If any of the above apply, **do not add the content**.
+
+## Where Content Belongs
+
+The goal is a lean `AGENTS.md` plus rich domain guides that teach agents what they can't learn from the code alone.
+
+| Scope | File |
+| ----- | ---- |
+| Project-wide invariants (contribution policy, env setup, test/lint commands, commit conventions) | `AGENTS.md` |
+| Area-specific knowledge (model patterns, format details, deprecation timelines) | Domain guide |
+
+**Rules of thumb:**
+
+- If it only matters for one area, put it in a domain guide.
+- If it matters for all areas, consider `AGENTS.md` — but first verify agents don't already do it.
+- Create a new domain guide when you have 5 or more non-obvious instructions sharing a coherent scope.
+
+## What Makes a Good Domain Guide
+
+Add what agents can't infer from the code or public docs: project-specific
+conventions that differ from standard patterns, correct approaches that require
+cross-file context, and fixes for repeated mistakes.
+Each entry should be short, specific, and actionable — e.g., which files to
+touch, what order to change them in, and which tests to run.
+
+## Keeping Docs Lean
+
+- Every addition should trigger review of surrounding content for stale or redundant items.
+- Prefer examples over explanations — a 3-line snippet beats a paragraph of prose.
+- Merge related bullets into one principle instead of listing variants.
+- Use `search for X` instead of hardcoded file paths.
+- PR references are fine in domain guides for traceability, but avoid them in `AGENTS.md`.
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| Pattern | Problem |
+| ------- | ------- |
+| Reactive accumulation | Adding a rule per incident without pruning leads to bloat |
+| Copy-paste between guides | Duplicated content drifts apart; keep in one place, link from the other |
+| Imperative walls | Long DO NOT lists that agents skim past; consolidate into principles |
+| Config snapshots | Show the command to get the value, not the value itself |
+
+## Change Checklist
+
+Before submitting changes to any agent instruction file:
+
+- [ ] **Non-obvious?** Would an agent do the wrong thing without this rule?
+- [ ] **No conflicts?** Searched all linked guides for contradictions?
+- [ ] **Right file?** Project-wide goes in `AGENTS.md`, area-specific in a domain guide?
+- [ ] **Offset the addition?** Removed or consolidated something to compensate?
+- [ ] **Under budget?** `AGENTS.md` < 200 lines, domain guides < 300 lines?
+- [ ] **No hardcoded paths?** Uses "search for X" where paths may change?
+- [ ] **Tested?** Verified that an agent actually follows the new instruction?

+# Vision Encoder (ViT) CUDA Graphs
+
+The [CUDA Graphs](cuda_graphs.md) infrastructure in vLLM primarily targets the **decoder** (language model) forward pass. vLLM also supports capturing the **encoder** (vision transformer) forward pass as CUDA Graphs, independently from the decoder. This is based on <https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/35963>.
+
+!!! note
+    Encoder CUDA Graphs are orthogonal to decoder CUDA Graphs — both can be enabled simultaneously. Encoder graphs capture the vision encoder execution (e.g., ViT in Qwen3-VL), while decoder graphs capture the language model execution as described in the [CUDA Graphs design document](cuda_graphs.md).
+
+## Motivation
+
+Vision encoder inference incurs CUDA kernel launch overhead on the host side. The overhead is more significant when the batch size is small or image size is small.
+
+Encoder CUDA Graphs eliminate this overhead by pre-capturing the full encoder forward pass at multiple token budget levels during model initialization, then replaying the appropriate graph at runtime.
+
+## Design
+
+The encoder CUDA Graph system uses a **budget-based capture/replay** strategy, managed by [EncoderCudaGraphManager][vllm.v1.worker.encoder_cudagraph.EncoderCudaGraphManager]. The system contains the following core components:
+
+* [EncoderCudaGraphManager][vllm.v1.worker.encoder_cudagraph.EncoderCudaGraphManager]: orchestrates capture, replay, greedy packing, and data-parallel execution for encoder CUDA Graphs.
+* [SupportsEncoderCudaGraph][vllm.model_executor.models.interfaces.SupportsEncoderCudaGraph]: a runtime-checkable protocol that models implement to opt-in to encoder CUDA Graphs.
+* [BudgetGraphMetadata][vllm.v1.worker.encoder_cudagraph.BudgetGraphMetadata]: holds the captured CUDA Graph and its associated I/O buffers for a single token budget level.
+
+### Budget-based graph capture
+
+Multiple CUDA Graphs are pre-captured at different **token budget** levels (e.g., `[2048, 4096, 8192, 13824]`). Each budget defines a fixed token capacity, and all budgets share the same maximum batch size (number of images). The `BudgetGraphMetadata` for each level stores the graph along with pre-allocated input, metadata, and output buffers:
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class BudgetGraphMetadata:
+    token_budget: int
+    max_batch_size: int
+    graph: torch.cuda.CUDAGraph
+    input_buffer: torch.Tensor       # e.g. pixel_values
+    metadata_buffers: dict[str, torch.Tensor]  # e.g. embeddings, seq metadata
+    output_buffer: torch.Tensor      # encoder hidden states
+```
+
+Budgets are auto-generated as power-of-2 levels from a model-provided range via `get_encoder_cudagraph_budget_range()`, with the maximum budget always included even if it does not fall on a power-of-2 boundary. Budgets can also be explicitly specified by the user via `encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets` in `CompilationConfig`.
+
+### Greedy bin-packing at runtime
+
+When a batch of images arrives, the manager sorts images by output token count (smallest first) and greedily packs as many images as possible into each sub-batch while staying within the **largest** token budget and the maximum batch size. Once a sub-batch is finalized (the next image would overflow either constraint), the manager finds the **smallest** budget that fits the sub-batch's total tokens and replays the corresponding CUDA Graph. This repeats until the batch is exhausted. Images that exceed all budgets fall back to eager execution.
+
+For each graph replay:
+
+1. Zero the pre-allocated `input_buffer`, then copy input tensors (e.g., `pixel_values`) into it.
+2. Zero `metadata_buffers`, then slice-copy precomputed values (e.g., rotary embeddings, sequence metadata).
+3. Replay the CUDA Graph.
+4. Clone outputs from `output_buffer` (cloning is necessary since the buffer is reused across replays).
+
+### Data-parallel support
+
+When `mm_encoder_tp_mode="data"`, the manager distributes images across TP ranks using load-balanced assignment via `get_load_balance_assignment`, executes locally on each rank, then gathers results back in the original order via `tensor_model_parallel_all_gather`.
+
+## Model integration via `SupportsEncoderCudaGraph`
+
+Models opt-in to encoder CUDA Graphs by implementing the [SupportsEncoderCudaGraph][vllm.model_executor.models.interfaces.SupportsEncoderCudaGraph] protocol. This protocol encapsulates all model-specific logic so that the manager remains model-agnostic. The protocol defines the following methods:
+
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_config()` — returns static configuration (supported modalities, input key, buffer keys, output hidden size).
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_budget_range(vllm_config)` — returns `(min_budget, max_budget)` for auto-inference of token budgets.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_num_items(mm_kwargs)` — returns the number of items (e.g. images) in the batch.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_per_item_output_tokens(mm_kwargs)` — returns per-item output token counts, used for greedy packing.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_per_item_input_sizes(mm_kwargs)` — returns per-item input sizes (e.g. patch counts), used for DP load balancing.
+* `select_encoder_cudagraph_items(mm_kwargs, indices)` — extracts a sub-batch of items by index, used during greedy packing and DP sharding.
+* `prepare_encoder_cudagraph_capture_inputs(...)` — creates dummy inputs for graph capture.
+* `prepare_encoder_cudagraph_replay_buffers(...)` — computes new buffer values from actual batch inputs before replay.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_forward(...)` — forward pass using precomputed buffers (called during capture and replay).
+* `encoder_eager_forward(...)` — fallback eager forward when no graph fits.
+
+Currently supported: **Qwen3-VL** (see `vllm/model_executor/models/qwen3_vl.py`).
+
+!!! note
+    The `SupportsEncoderCudaGraph` protocol is designed to be model-agnostic. New vision encoder models can opt-in by implementing the protocol methods without modifying the manager.
+
+!!! note
+    Encoder CUDA Graphs have currently been tested with `--mm-encoder-attn-backend=FLASH_ATTN` and `--mm-encoder-attn-backend=FLASHINFER` on Blackwell GPUs.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Three fields in `CompilationConfig` control encoder CUDA Graphs:
+
+* `cudagraph_mm_encoder` (`bool`, default `False`) — enable CUDA Graph capture for multimodal encoder. When enabled, captures the full encoder forward as a CUDA Graph for each token budget level.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets` (`list[int]`, default `[]`) — token budget levels for capture. If empty (default), auto-inferred from model architecture as power-of-2 levels. User-provided values override auto-inference.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch` (`int`, default `0`) — maximum number of images per batch during capture. If 0 (default), auto-inferred as `max_budget // min_budget`.
+
+## Usage guide
+
+Enable encoder CUDA Graphs via `compilation_config`:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B \
+  --compilation-config '{"cudagraph_mm_encoder": true}'
+```
+
+With explicit budgets:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B \
+  --compilation-config '{"cudagraph_mm_encoder": true, "encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets": [2048, 4096, 8192, 13824], "encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch": 8}'
+```
+
+Python example:
+
+```python
+import vllm
+
+compilation_config = {
+    "cudagraph_mm_encoder": True,
+    # Optional: override auto-inferred budgets
+    # "encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets": [2048, 4096, 8192, 13824],
+    # "encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch": 8,
+}
+
+model = vllm.LLM(
+    model="Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B",
+    compilation_config=compilation_config,
+)
+```
+
+The manager tracks hit/miss statistics and logs them periodically. A "hit" means an image was processed via CUDA Graph replay; a "miss" means eager fallback (image exceeded all budgets).

+## Thinking Budget Control
+
+Some models, such as [Qwen3](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/quickstart.html#thinking-budget), [DeepSeek](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/deep-thinking), and [Nemotron3](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-BF16), support a thinking budget that limits the maximum number of tokens used for reasoning.
+
+Token counting starts from `think_start_str`. Once the reasoning token count reaches the configured `thinking_token_budget`, vLLM forces the model to produce `think_end_str`, effectively terminating the reasoning block.
+
+To use this feature:
+
+- `--reasoning-parser` enables reasoning extraction.
+- `--reasoning-config` defines the reasoning boundary tokens (e.g., `think_start_str`, `think_end_str`).
+- `thinking_token_budget` (a sampling parameter) sets the per-request reasoning token limit.
+
+If `thinking_token_budget` is not specified, no explicit reasoning limit is applied beyond normal generation constraints such as `max_tokens`.
+
+`--reasoning-config` accepts a JSON object corresponding to  
+[ReasoningConfig][vllm.config.ReasoningConfig] with the following fields:
+
+| Field             | Type           | Description                                      |

+| `think_start_str` | `str \| null`  | String that marks the start of reasoning content |
+| `think_end_str`   | `str \| null`  | String that marks the end of reasoning content   |
+
+!!! note
+    `think_end_str` can include a transition phrase before the think end token. For example, setting `think_end_str` to `"I have to give the solution based on the thinking directly now.</think>"` instructs the model to emit that phrase when the budget is exhausted, making the reasoning termination more natural.

-# SM103 NVFP4 Programmatic Dependent Launch (PDL) Summary
-
-## Overview
-
-This document summarizes the addition of **Programmatic Dependent Launch (PDL)** to the SM103 (B300 Blackwell Ultra) NVFP4 quantization and CUTLASS GEMM kernels in vLLM. PDL is a CUDA 12+ feature that allows consecutive kernels on the same stream to overlap execution, reducing the gap between a producer kernel's tail and a consumer kernel's head.
-
-## What is PDL?
-
-In standard CUDA stream semantics, Kernel B cannot begin until Kernel A fully completes. PDL relaxes this constraint:
-
-```
-Without PDL:
-  [==== quant kernel ====]  [==== GEMM kernel ====]
-                          ^ idle gap
-
-With PDL:
-  [==== quant kernel ====]
-              [==== GEMM kernel ====]
-              ^ overlap region
-```
-
-The CUDA attribute `cudaLaunchAttributeProgrammaticStreamSerialization` is set on the **producer** kernel, telling the driver that the next kernel on the stream may begin before the producer fully completes. This is safe when the consumer's early thread blocks operate on data that the producer has already finished writing (which is the typical case for tile-based execution).
-
-## Changes Made
-
-### 1. Quant kernel PDL (`csrc/quantization/fp4/nvfp4_quant_kernels.cu`)
-
- Refactored `scaled_fp4_quant_sm103a` into `scaled_fp4_quant_sm103a_impl` with a `use_pdl` parameter
- When `use_pdl=true`, the kernel is launched via `cudaLaunchKernelEx` with `ProgrammaticStreamSerialization = 1`
- Added `scaled_fp4_quant_sm103a_pdl()` entry point
-
-### 2. CUTLASS GEMM PDL (`csrc/quantization/fp4/nvfp4_scaled_mm_kernels.cu`)
-
- Added `launch_with_pdl` parameter to `runGemm()` template, forwarded to CUTLASS's `GemmUniversalAdapter::run(..., launch_with_pdl)`
- CUTLASS internally sets `ProgrammaticStreamSerialization` on the GEMM launch via `ClusterLauncher`
- Added `cutlass_scaled_fp4_mm_sm103a_pdl()` entry point
-
-### 3. Op registration (`csrc/torch_bindings.cpp`, `csrc/quantization/fp4/nvfp4_*_entry.cu`)
-
-New torch ops registered:
- `torch.ops._C.scaled_fp4_quant_sm103_pdl` -- PDL-enabled SM103 quant
- `torch.ops._C.scaled_fp4_quant_sm103_pdl.out` -- out-variant
- `torch.ops._C.cutlass_scaled_fp4_mm_sm103a_pdl` -- PDL-enabled SM103 GEMM
-
-### 4. Benchmark (`benchmarks/kernels/benchmark_nvfp4_sm103.py`)
-
-Updated benchmark with new modes:
- `--mode gemm`: SM100 vs SM103 vs SM103+PDL GEMM-only
- `--mode e2e`: End-to-end quant+GEMM with PDL comparison
- `--mode pdl`: Multi-layer pipeline benchmark (back-to-back quant+GEMM pairs)
-
-## PDL Pipeline Analysis
-
-### Single kernel pair (quant + GEMM)
-
-For a single quant->GEMM pair, PDL enables:
-1. **Quant kernel** with `ProgrammaticStreamSerialization`: GEMM can start before quant finishes
-2. **GEMM kernel** with `ProgrammaticStreamSerialization` (via CUTLASS): the next layer's kernel can start before GEMM finishes
-
-### Multi-layer pipeline
-
-In a real transformer, the pattern repeats:
-```
-Layer 1: quant_1 -> GEMM_1
-Layer 2: quant_2 -> GEMM_2
-...
-```
-
-With PDL on both kernels, each transition overlaps:
-```
-[quant_1]--->[GEMM_1]--->[quant_2]--->[GEMM_2]--->  (without PDL)
-
-[quant_1]--[GEMM_1]--[quant_2]--[GEMM_2]--          (with PDL)
-          ^^        ^^         ^^
-          overlap at each transition
-```
-
-### Measured performance impact (B300 SXM6, CUDA 12.9)
-
-| Scenario | PDL benefit | Explanation |
-|----------|-------------|-------------|
-| GEMM-only (isolated) | ~0-3% | Marginal; no meaningful consumer overlap for a single kernel |
-| Single quant+GEMM (decode, M=1-16) | 0-3% | Quant is tiny, GEMM dominates wall time |
-| Single quant+GEMM (prefill, M=64-512) | 2-3% | Moderate overlap window |
-| Single quant+GEMM (prefill, M=1024+) | 2-5% | Larger quant = more overlap-able tail |
-| 4-layer pipeline (decode, M=1-16) | 4-6% | Cumulative overlap across 8 kernel transitions |
-| 4-layer pipeline (M=1024) | **12%** | Best case: sustained overlap on compute-heavy layers |
-| 4-layer pipeline (prefill, M=4096) | 4% | GEMM dominates; quant tail is proportionally smaller |
-
-The PDL benefit is proportional to the **ratio of overlap-able tail time to total kernel time**. The sweet spot is M=256-1024 where the quant kernel is large enough to provide meaningful overlap but doesn't yet dominate the pipeline.
-
-## SM100 vs SM103 vs SM103+PDL Comparison
-
-### Kernel architecture differences
-
-| Aspect | SM100 (B200) | SM103 (B300) | SM103+PDL |
-|--------|-------------|-------------|-----------|
-| MMA instructions | FP4 BlockScaled | FP4 Ultra (UltraVs16) | Same as SM103 |
-| Tile K size | 256 | 768 (3x larger) | Same as SM103 |
-| Cooperative SMs | 1-2 per tile | 2 per tile (default) | Same as SM103 |
-| SF layout | Sm1xxBlockScaledConfig | Sm103BlockScaledConfig | Same as SM103 |
-| Kernel overlap | None (stream-serialized) | None | Quant tail overlaps GEMM head |
-| Epilogue | TmaWarpSpecialized | NoSmemWarpSpecialized | Same as SM103 |
-
-### Measured performance on B300 SXM6, N=K=7168
-
-**SM103 vs SM100 (GEMM-only):** SM103 Ultra MMA provides 3-7% higher throughput for small-to-medium M (decode/small batch). At large M (2048+), both achieve similar throughput as the problem becomes compute-bound on both paths. The SM103 advantage comes from:
- 3x larger K-tile (768 vs 256): fewer mainloop iterations
- UltraVs16 instructions: higher throughput per clock
- NoSmem epilogue: more shared memory for mainloop double-buffering
-
-**PDL benefit (E2E):** PDL provides a consistent 2-5% speedup on the end-to-end quant+GEMM path for most M sizes, with a peak of 5% at M=1024 where the quant and GEMM are well-balanced.
-
-**PDL pipeline benefit (4 layers):** The multi-layer pipeline shows 4-12% speedup, with the best result at M=1024 (12% speedup) where cumulative overlap across 8 kernel transitions provides maximum benefit.

-
-**Observations:**
- SM103 is faster than SM100 for M <= 512 (up to 10% at M=16)
- At M=1024, SM100 is faster (tile configuration tradeoff)
- PDL on GEMM-only has marginal effect (expected: no consumer kernel to overlap)

-**Observations:**
- PDL consistently improves E2E by 2-5% over non-PDL SM103
- Best PDL improvement at M=1024: 5% (40.90 us -> 38.78 us)
- Total SM103+PDL vs SM100 speedup: up to 8% at M=8
-
-### PDL Pipeline: 4 Back-to-Back Layers

-
-**Key finding:** At M=1024, PDL provides **12% speedup** over non-PDL SM103 in the 4-layer pipeline benchmark. This is where the quant and GEMM kernels are well-balanced in execution time, maximizing the overlap benefit across 8 kernel transitions (4 quant + 4 GEMM).

-|---|-----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|
-| 1 | 17.06 | 0.84 | 17.09 | 0.84 |
-| 256 | 17.25 | 212.78 | 17.18 | 213.57 |

-| 4096 | 19.17 | 3063.45 | 18.24 | 3219.31 |
-
-**Observations:** SM103 quant is 2-5% faster than SM100 quant, primarily from the different SF swizzle pattern being more cache-friendly on SM103.
-
-## Conclusion
-
-PDL is a low-cost optimization that provides consistent 2-5% E2E improvement for single quant+GEMM pairs, scaling to **12% in multi-layer pipelines** at the M=1024 sweet spot. The implementation adds no correctness risk (PDL is a scheduling hint) and no overhead when the GPU decides not to overlap. It should be enabled by default for SM103 production workloads.
