Modern machine learning (ML) workloads increasingly rely on GPUs, yet achieving high end-to-end performance remains challenging due to dependencies on both GPU kernel efficiency and host-side settings. Although LLM-based methods show promise on automated GPU kernel generation, prior works mainly focus on single-kernel optimization and do not extend to end-to-end programs, hindering practical deployment. To address the challenge, in this work, we propose StitchCUDA, a multi-agent framework for end-to-end GPU program generation, with three specialized agents: a Planner to orchestrate whole system design, a Coder dedicated to implementing it step-by-step, and a Verifier for correctness check and performance profiling using Nsys\/NCU. To fundamentally improve the Coder’s ability in end-to-end GPU programming, StitchCUDA integrates rubric-based agentic reinforcement learning over two atomic skills, task-to-code generation and feedback-driven code optimization, with combined rubric reward and rule-based reward from real executions. Therefore, the Coder learns how to implement advanced CUDA programming techniques (e.g., custom kernel fusion, cublas epilogue), and we also effectively prevent Coder&#39;s reward hacking (e.g., just copy PyTorch code or hardcoding output) during benchmarking. Experiments on KernelBench show that StitchCUDA achieves nearly 100% success rate on end-to-end GPU programming tasks, with 1.72x better speedup over the multi-agent baseline and 2.73x than the RL model baselines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
