add-gpu-backend

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the repetitive setup work required to add a new GPU backend to this repository, so teams can start from a safe, compiling scaffold instead of wiring everything by hand.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Backend Scaffolding: Creates the backend source tree, public header, feature kernel stubs, and smoke tests.
• Build Integration: Patches Meson files and core dispatch points so the backend is wired into libvmaf correctly.
• CI and Documentation: Adds the workflow and docs stub needed to keep the new backend visible, testable, and maintainable.
• Use Case: A developer can ask for a new Vulkan, HIP, Metal, OpenCL, or ROCm backend and get a complete starting point that compiles, runs a smoke test, and is ready for iterative implementation.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to scaffold a new lowercase backend named vulkan for libvmaf and include the files, build wiring, and smoke test.
