torch-pipeline-parallelism
This skill provides guidance for implementing PyTorch pipeline parallelism for distributed training of large language models. It should be used when implementing pipeline parallel training loops, partitioning transformer models across GPUs, or working with AFAB (All-Forward-All-Backward) scheduling patterns. The skill covers model partitioning, inter-rank communication, gradient flow management, and common pitfalls in distributed training implementations.
