Attention Gym

RiseAI-Sys
open source / Overall score: 1.5

Attention-Gym is a Triton-based collection of sparse and quantized attention kernel implementations - Flash Attention 2, sliding-tile attention and several SageAttention variants - built for researchers to rapidly implement, test and validate new attention mechanisms.

Openness

5 high confidence
5.0
license
Apache-2.0(OSI)
source
public
core features withheld
no

Apache-2.0 license body confirmed. The repository is public and unarchived and builds the whole product, and the README describes no paid tier, enterprise edition or license-gated build beside it, so source is public and the core ungated.

Adoption

1 low confidence
1.0

GitHub stars are the only adoption signal for Attention-Gym: the `attn-gym` package on PyPI belongs to a different project, PyTorch Labs' flex-attention examples, and this repository publishes no package of its own.

Capability

2 medium confidence
2.0

Attention-Gym packages a small, fixed set of already-published attention kernels - Flash Attention 2, sliding-tile attention and several SageAttention variants - as a testbed for experimentation rather than an actively extended kernel library or a compiler. That narrow, fixed scope keeps it well below a production engine such as TensorRT.

  • https://github.com/RiseAI-Sys/attention-gym/blob/main/README.md recorded 2026-10-07

    README describes Attention-Gym as a flexible framework built on Triton for implementing, testing and validating sparse and quantized attention mechanisms, listing the specific kernels it currently supports, with no paid tier, enterprise edition or license-gated build beside the published source.
