Package: compute.kernels | Status: source-declared

Tags: compute, compute.kernels, cpu, kernels, method, source-example, thing, yeho

Describe reusable compute kernels and their workload contracts.

```yh
external thing portableKernelAcceptanceRecord
```

- text kernelName: Stores kernel name as text.
- text target: Stores target as text.
- bool contractAccepted: Stores contract accepted as bool.
- bool compilerArtifactNow: Stores compiler artifact now as bool.
- bool executableNow: Stores executable now as bool.
- text code: Stores code as text.
- text loweringStatus: Stores lowering status as text.
- text cacheKey: Stores cache key as text.
- text message: Stores message as text.
- portableKernelAcceptanceRecord(text kernelName, text target, bool contractAccepted, bool compilerArtifactNow, bool executableNow, text code, text loweringStatus, text cacheKey, text message): Portable kernel acceptance record.
- Describe() returns text: Describe.

## Use portableKernelAcceptanceRecord

A complete small caller. Values are illustrative; check the returned result and package requirements before connecting live resources.

Verification: type checked

```yh
using compute.kernels

// Describe reusable compute kernels and their workload contracts.
portableKernelAcceptanceRecord sample = portableKernelAcceptanceRecord("kernel Name", "target", true, true, true, "code", "lowering Status", "cache Key", "message")
Console.Log(Text.From(sample.kernelName))

```

Save this beside start.yh as project.mech:

```toml
manifestVersion = "2"
package = "api.example.compute_kernels__portablekernelacceptancerecord"
version = "0.1.0"
languageEdition = "yeho-core-2026.1"

[app]
kind = "headless"

[[dependencies]]
package = "compute.kernels"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/compute/kernels"

[[dependencies]]
package = "compute.tensor"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/compute/tensor"

[[dependencies]]
package = "console"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/console"

[[dependencies]]
package = "diagnostics"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/diagnostics"

```

Extract the example archive beside the yeho and dolphin checkouts. This example requires those source dependencies and a current developer compiler.

```sh
./yeho/build/dolphin-metal/yehoc ./api-examples/compute.kernels--portableKernelAcceptanceRecord/usage --backend cpu-oracle -o /tmp/yeho-example
/tmp/yeho-example
```


## portableKernelAcceptanceRecord.Describe

A complete caller for this public method. Sample inputs are illustrative; native resources require their owning lifecycle.

Verification: type checked

```yh
using compute.kernels

// Describe.
portableKernelAcceptanceRecord instance = portableKernelAcceptanceRecord("kernel Name", "target", true, true, true, "code", "lowering Status", "cache Key", "message")
text result = instance.Describe()
Console.Log(Text.From(result))

```

```sh

/tmp/yeho-example
```


Package presence and a declaration do not establish support on every host. Host services need their platform and lifecycle setup.
