Could you build this?
Partial Building dashboards is vibe-codeable, but writing a low-overhead daemon that probes low-level NVIDIA NVML metrics and correlates GPU hardware PIDs with Kubernetes cgroups and Slurm job allocations requires non-trivial systems knowledge.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires a Go/Rust daemon running on host nodes that queries NVIDIA NVML/DCGM C APIs, inspects Linux cgroups (`/sys/fs/cgroup`) to map PIDs to container namespaces, and queries Kubernetes API servers or Slurm daemon sockets. The core difficulty is reliable, low-overhead kernel-level mapping between GPU compute processes and ephemeral orchestrator job identifiers.
