DeepGEMM is DeepSeek's open-source library of highly optimized FP8 General Matrix Multiplication (GEMM) kernels targeting NVIDIA SM90/SM100 GPUs — the H100, H800, and Blackwell class. The headline feature is a lightweight just-in-time (JIT) compiler that eliminates the need for offline CUDA compilation at install time, dramatically lowering the barrier for teams who want raw GPU throughput without complex build pipelines. The library covers FP8 and FP4 dense GEMMs, BF16 accumulation, grouped GEMMs for Mixture-of-Experts architectures with overlapped NVLink communication, and multi-query attention scoring kernels. On H800 hardware DeepGEMM posts up to 1,550 TFLOPS — competitive with hand-tuned vendor libraries — while remaining fully open source under the MIT license. For LLM inference teams running on H100/H800 clusters, DeepGEMM slots directly into inference stacks like vLLM and SGLang. It's especially notable because it came from DeepSeek's internal training infrastructure, meaning it's been battle-tested at the scale that produced some of 2026's most cost-efficient models. This isn't research code — it's production tooling going public.

oh-my-codex (OMX) is a lightweight open-source tool that bolts AI capabilities onto any Git repository via three primitives: hooks (event-driven automations triggered by commits, PRs, or file changes), agent teams (configurable multi-agent crews for specific tasks like code review or documentation), and a HUD (a heads-up display showing what agents are doing and what they've changed in real time). Built by indie developer Yeachan-Heo, the project emerged from frustration with AI coding assistants that require full IDE integration. OMX is editor-agnostic — it runs as a background process, listens to repository events, and dispatches agent work asynchronously. The HUD can be run in any terminal alongside your existing workflow. The project trended on GitHub around April 4 and has generated interest from developers who want AI automation at the repository level rather than the editor level. The hooks system in particular maps cleanly to CI/CD mental models, making it feel familiar to developers who already think in terms of repository events.
Reviewer scorecard
“If you're running inference on H100s or H800s, DeepGEMM is an immediate drop-in for the hottest path in your stack. The JIT approach means you're not fighting CUDA version mismatches, and 1,550 TFLOPS is a number that makes you pay attention. Already integrates with vLLM — just use it.”
“This is the right abstraction layer — repo-level AI hooks that work regardless of what editor you're in. The HUD is surprisingly polished for an indie project. I can see this becoming a standard part of the dotfiles setup for developers who work across multiple editors.”
“This is only useful if you're already running H100/H800 clusters — consumer GPU users get nothing here. Documentation is still thin in places, and support for anything below SM90 is explicitly not a priority. Great for DeepSeek's own infra needs; might be too narrow for most teams.”
“The hooks and agent teams concept is compelling but the execution feels early. Agent teams with no guardrails running on every commit is a recipe for noise and unintended changes. Until there's robust configuration for when NOT to fire agents, this needs careful testing before use on anything production-adjacent.”
“DeepSeek consistently publishes its internal tooling and each release raises the efficiency ceiling for the whole industry. DeepGEMM is another piece of the puzzle that makes frontier inference cheaper — which ultimately benefits everyone downstream from model providers to end users.”
“The HUD pattern — a live display of autonomous agents working in your codebase — is a glimpse at how software development will feel in two years. When agents are good enough to be trusted, you'll want exactly this: a terminal showing what they're doing while you think about the next problem.”
“Far outside the creative tooling space but the downstream effect matters: faster, cheaper inference means the models powering creative AI tools get cheaper to run. Not something a designer touches directly, but the efficiency wins flow through to them eventually.”
“I'd use the hooks to auto-update documentation on every commit and have the HUD show me what changed in plain English. The editor-agnostic approach means it works the same whether I'm in Cursor, Zed, or vim — that flexibility matters a lot for creative workflows.”
