THE MISSION
Start with the evidence-backed RX580/RADV path. Add Vulkan, CUDA, ROCm, Metal, or another backend through explicit capability gates.
GPU contribution guide ↗New models, tokenizers, adapters, and quantization paths come with provenance, shape contracts, fixtures, and honest limitations.
Model contribution guide ↗Commands, hardware, datasets, checksums, metrics, failures, and status are part of the result—not an afterthought.
Experiment protocol ↗A SHARED FLIGHT PLAN
Spaceslug is for people with curious machines, constrained budgets, and useful ideas. Whether you are profiling a shader, adapting a model, documenting a failure, or taking your first local-AI step, your contribution can move the mission forward.
