# fuel-cuda-backend - triangular masks (triu / tril) kernel contracts


CUDA (baracuda) OpParams::Triangular { batch_count, rows, cols, diagonal }; float+integer subset the CPU path covers.. Each section binds one concrete `OpKind` and fans its operand(s)
over the accepted dtypes (sec 3.4 dtype-fan; base `entry_point` -> `<op>_<dtype>` resolved through
[`crate::fkc::CudaLinkRegistry`]). Caps ride through the import truthfully (sec 6 / caps_map):
each per-operand five-flag layout projects onto
`KernelCaps.strided_input = (strided==accepted) && (broadcast_stride0==accepted)` (AND-ed across
operands) - byte-for-byte the deleted hand-written `register_with_caps(..., strided)` regs. Cost is
`judge_measured` (the fill_unset pass upgrades the imported unknown_cost sentinel to the shared
per-OpKind CUDA cost fn); precision is the author-declared `audited: false` -> UNAUDITED seed.
