2. Cooperation Level Model

Cooperation is divided into three levels: basic, intermediate, and advanced. Chip companies progress through the levels step by step. Given the characteristics of edge chips, no adaptation is required for the FlagCX communication library or the large-model training and inference framework.

Dimension	Basic (integration validation)	Intermediate (deep adaptation)	Advanced (ecosystem co-building)
Positioning	Integration validation	Deep adaptation	Ecosystem co-building
Operators	Adopt selected high-performance FlagGems operators	Fully support the FlagGems Stable operator set and commit to using FlagGems by default	Co-build FlagGems and generate specialized operators with KernelGen
Compiler	Use the FlagTree compiler and C++ Wrapper	Optimize with Hints and TLE; use FlagTree as the default compiler	Co-build all three Triton TLE implementation layers
CI/CD	Use the FlagOS CI resource pool for unit tests	Co-build test cases, upstream code, and provide machine resources. Jointly solve technical issues and complete model adaptation and optimization	Bring in operating-system and cloud partner communities
Compatibility and security	Provide base container image materials and download channels for customized third-party dependencies	Obtain FlagOS certification, promptly update customized packages, and respond immediately to package adaptation issues	Share security working-group results and bring them into downstream distributions
Open-source community	Basic member	Intermediate member, eligible to run for PMC	Advanced member, with course and case-study coverage
Business expansion	—	Bring in partner clouds and MaaS platforms	Bring in upstream and downstream ecosystem communities
