FABRICA: Agentic CUDA-to-CSL Translation and Optimization for Wafer-Scale Systems

Porting GPU kernels across architectures requires architectural remapping, not syntax substitution. CUDA encodes decomposition, locality, and synchronization through threads, blocks, and memory accesses; the Cerebras Software Language (CSL) requires explicit placement, distributed SRAM, fabric communication, event-driven tasks, and host/device contracts. We present FABRICA-Bench, 49 paired CUDA-to-CSL tasks, and FABRICA, an agentic framework combining target knowledge, execution, failure-directed repair, and correctness-gated optimization. On a fixed 28-task Level~1--3 core comparison with Claude Opus 4.8, FABRICA raises success from 6/28 to 26/28; 22 successful programs match or beat their CSL references. Across the 49-task coverage evaluation, 38 tasks produce a correct program; the final three tasks are evaluated over three seeds and pass 8/9 runs. For 27 generated/reference pairs with device-internal timing, geometric-mean speedup is 3.75$\times$ on the SDK simulator and 3.47$\times$ on WSE-3 hardware. With the executable workflow fixed, Claude Opus~4.8 passes 26/28 core tasks while the best open-weight model passes 2/28; retrieved Cerebras knowledge separately raises success from 1/15 to 7/15 on a Level~1--3 panel. These results identify base-model capability, target knowledge, execution feedback, and same-target measurement as central to cross-architecture kernel generation.

Measure Before You Manage: Evaluating Agent Working Memory in Coding Agents

Agent working memory is heterogeneous. Objects such as instructions, artifacts, tool outputs, and agent-generated state play different semantic roles and exhibit different size, retention, and representation profiles. Recent work has begun to explore memory-management mechanisms that account for such heterogeneity. This work focuses on semantic heterogeneity and studies how it should shape the management and evaluation of working memory in coding agents. Across 55 archived coding-agent trajectories, we find that semantically different working-memory objects exhibit distinct retention and compression behavior. This heterogeneity motivates semantically informed memory management. We study two semantically informed strategies: an object-aware compression policy and a retrieval-based policy. Their evaluation shows that calibration gains may not transfer to held-out tasks, and that equal token budgets do not imply equal delivered context or management cost. A real-system replay further exposes serving limits that nominal budgets alone do not capture. Together, these results show why semantic structure matters for agent working memory and why evaluating memory-management strategies requires more than a nominal token budget. We organize these lessons into four levels: stored state, delivered context, management work, and task or process outcome.

LLMs Can Predict Failure Risk, But Struggle to Predict Which Collaboration Protocol Pays Off: Cost-Aware Protocol Routing Across Reasoning Tasks

Multi-agent large language model (LLM) systems can improve reasoning by spending more computation, but deployment requires deciding when extra collaboration is worth its cost, so confidence can support initial escalation, while protocol-specific cost-aware routing remains unresolved.
