ARC2-CHIMERA
April 25, 2026 · View on GitHub
GPU compute-shader playground exploring OpenGL-based primitives for symbolic reasoning. Accuracy on ARC is a research baseline, not a competitive submission.
Please read PROJECT_STATUS.md before anything else.
TL;DR: this repository is a research proof-of-concept. Current benchmark accuracy on ARC-AGI is ~2-5% on 100-task subsets — well below the 85% target of the ARC Prize. This is not an ARC Prize submission and should not be described as one. The reusable value is the GPU compute-shader architecture, not the reasoning engine.
What the package is
arc2-chimera exposes the v10 OpenGL-based architecture as an installable
Python package so the shader primitives can be reused:
- Matmul / GELU kernels implemented as GLSL compute shaders.
- Cellular-automaton texture update kernels.
- Diffusion-style update passes.
- Holographic-memory read/write passes.
- A GPU-texture state loop (no CPU round-trips between frames).
All of this runs on any OpenGL 4.3+ GPU via moderngl. There is no PyTorch
or TensorFlow dependency.
Install
pip install arc2-chimera # core (numpy, Pillow)
pip install arc2-chimera[gpu] # add moderngl + glfw for real GPU runs
pip install arc2-chimera[dev] # pytest / build / twine
CLI
arc2-chimera info # prints status + disclaimer
arc2-chimera evaluate --task-file task.json --output out.json

What works / what doesn't
See PROJECT_STATUS.md for the full list. In short: the GPU kernels work and are worth reusing. The symbolic reasoning layer on top of them does not yet perform on ARC.
