+
+`hkust-nlp/drkernel-8b` is a Qwen3-8B-based model specialized for GPU kernel generation and optimization (especially Triton) in the DR.Kernel framework.
+
+It is trained for iterative optimization with execution feedback from KernelGYM, rather than single-shot code generation only.
+
+## Model Summary
+
+- Model type: `Qwen3ForCausalLM`
+- Parameter count: `8,190,735,360` (from `model.safetensors.index.json`)
+- Weight dtype: BF16
+- Base model family: Qwen3-8B
+- Main capability: generate and iteratively refine optimized `ModelNew` kernel implementations from PyTorch reference tasks
+
+
+## Training Recipe (DR.Kernel)
+
+The 8B model follows the same two-stage DR.Kernel pipeline:
+
+1. Cold-start SFT
+   - Dataset: `hkust-nlp/drkernel-coldstart-8k`
+   - Multi-turn trajectory warm-up for kernel generation/refinement
+2. Multi-turn RL
+   - Train dataset: `hkust-nlp/drkernel-rl-data`
+   - Validation dataset: `hkust-nlp/drkernel-validation-data` (KernelBench Level 2 validation split)
+   - Core methods: TRLOO + MRS + PR + PRS
+   - Execution environment: KernelGYM with compilation/correctness/performance/profiling feedback
+
+Related training scripts in this repo:
+
+- `drkernel/kernel/scripts/sft/8b-coldstart.sh`
+- `drkernel/kernel/scripts/rl/8b_trloo_mrs_pr_prs.sh`
+
+## Intended Use
+
+- Kernel generation research and benchmarking
+- Triton kernel optimization with iterative feedback
+- Multi-turn agentic code refinement under execution-based reward
+
+## Not Intended Use
+
+- Safety-critical production deployment without additional verification
+- General-purpose coding assistant use where kernel-evaluation feedback is unavailable
+
+## Prompting Format
+
+The model is trained with kernel-optimization prompts that:
+
+- Provide a PyTorch reference architecture (`Model`, `get_inputs`, `get_init_inputs`)
+- Require returning an optimized `ModelNew`
+- In multi-turn settings, append server feedback and request iterative improvement
+
+For best behavior, keep the same task style as DR.Kernel datasets and use chat-format messages.
+
+## Quick Start (Transformers)
+
+Use the same fixed 1-shot first-turn prompt template as DR.Kernel data (recommended):
