quark-install

Installs or verifies AMD Quark and ensures the selected Python environment has an accelerator-matched PyTorch. Applies to "install Quark", "set up Quark", "pip install amd-quark", Quark dependency or import failures, ModuleNotFoundError for quark, and Quark kernel compiler errors. Defaults to GPU and requires explicit confirmation before CPU mode. Covers PyPI universal, exactly matched native, local-wheel, and local-source installs. Does not handle standalone PyTorch requests, ONNX Runtime-only setup, or quantization.

This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 423 stars are split between them (about 42 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 64/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

Security

Scanned Oct 21, 2026 at commit c729955ac862, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
