-description: Define custom groups (Irrep subclasses), build segmented tensor products with CG coefficients, create equivariant polynomials and IrDictPolynomials, and use built-in descriptors (linear, tensor products, spherical harmonics). Use when working with cuequivariance group theory, irreps, or segmented polynomials.
+description: Build and debug cuEquivariance irreps, custom Irrep subclasses, Clebsch-Gordan tensor products, and equivariant or segmented polynomials. Use for cuequivariance core descriptors and IrDictPolynomial layout or shape questions; framework execution requires the matching JAX or PyTorch API.

-# cuequivariance: Groups, Irreps, and Segmented Polynomials
+# cuEquivariance core
 
-## Overview
+Use `cuequivariance` (`import cuequivariance as cue`) to describe group
+representations and tensor contractions. Prefer a built-in descriptor when it
+expresses the requested operation; construct a `SegmentedTensorProduct` only
+for a custom contraction. Core polynomials can be evaluated with NumPy on CPU.
+They do not create trainable framework parameters or select a GPU kernel.
 
-`cuequivariance` (imported as `cue`) provides two core abstractions:
+## Choose the workflow
 
-1. **Group theory**: `Irrep` subclasses define irreducible representations of Lie groups (SO3, O3, SU2, or custom). `Irreps` manages collections with multiplicities.
-2. **Segmented polynomials**: `SegmentedTensorProduct` describes tensor contractions over segments of varying shape, linked by `Path` objects carrying Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. `SegmentedPolynomial` wraps multiple STPs into a polynomial with named inputs/outputs. Two higher-level wrappers attach group representations:
-   - `EquivariantPolynomial` — dense operands with `IrrepsAndLayout` metadata
-   - `IrDictPolynomial` — operands already split by irrep, with per-group `Irreps` metadata for the `dict[Irrep, Array]` workflow
+- For built-in groups and dense descriptors, use the examples below.
+- For a new group, read [custom irreps](references/custom-irreps.md).
+- For custom contractions, CG paths, or polynomial inspection, read
+  [segmented polynomials](references/segmented-polynomials.md).
+- For dictionaries keyed by irrep, read [the ir_dict workflow](references/ir-dict.md).
+  It includes a CPU example and the boundary with JAX execution.
 
-## Defining a custom group
+For explanations or requests to show runnable code, adapt the closest example;
+installing packages is not a prerequisite to answering. Read the reference for
+the selected workflow. Execute code when the user requests a run or when an
+integration or correctness question needs a runtime check. Inspect upstream
+source when the installed API differs or a numerical check fails.
 
-Subclass `cue.Irrep` (a frozen dataclass) and implement:
+## Check the execution environment

-
-### Built-in groups
-
-- **`cue.SO3(l)`**: 3D rotations. `l` is a non-negative integer. `dim = 2l+1`. String: `"0"`, `"1"`, `"2"`.
-- **`cue.O3(l, p)`**: 3D rotations + parity. `p=+1` (even) or `p=-1` (odd). String: `"0e"`, `"1o"`, `"2e"`.
-- **`cue.SU2(j)`**: Spin group. `j` is a non-negative half-integer. String: `"0"`, `"1/2"`, `"1"`.
-
-## Irreps and layout
-
-```python
-irreps = cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0 + 4x1 + 2x2")  # 16 scalars, 4 vectors, 2 rank-2
-irreps.dim   # 16*1 + 4*3 + 2*5 = 38
-
-for mul, ir in irreps:
-    print(mul, ir, ir.dim)  # 16 0 1, then 4 1 3, then 2 2 5
-```
-
-`IrrepsLayout` controls memory order within each `(mul, ir)` block:
-
-- `cue.ir_mul`: data ordered as `(ir.dim, mul)` — **used by all descriptors and ir_dict internally**
-- `cue.mul_ir`: data ordered as `(mul, ir.dim)` — **used by nnx `dict[Irrep, Array]` and PyTorch**
-
-`IrrepsAndLayout` combines irreps with a layout into a `Rep`:
-
-```python
-rep = cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 2x1"), cue.ir_mul)
-rep.dim  # 10
-```
-
-## Building a SegmentedTensorProduct from scratch
-
-The subscripts string uses Einstein notation. Operands are comma-separated, coefficient modes follow `+`.
-
-```python
-# Matrix-vector multiply: y_i = sum_j M_ij * x_j
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("ij,j,i")
-d.add_segment(0, (3, 4))  # operand 0: matrix segment of shape (3, 4)
-d.add_segment(1, (4,))     # operand 1: vector of size 4
-d.add_segment(2, (3,))     # operand 2: output vector of size 3
-d.add_path(0, 0, 0, c=1.0) # link segments 0,0,0 with coefficient=1.0
-
-poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)  # last operand becomes output
-[y] = poly(M_flat, x)  # numpy evaluation
-```
-
-### Multi-segment STP (how descriptors work internally)
-
-Descriptors build STPs with multiple segments per operand. Each segment corresponds to an irrep block:
-
-```python
-# Linear equivariant map: output[iv] = sum_u weight[uv] * input[iu]
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uv,iu,iv")
-
-# Segment for l=1: ir_dim=3, mul_in=2, mul_out=5
-s_in_0 = d.add_segment(1, (3, 2))    # input block
-s_out_0 = d.add_segment(2, (3, 5))   # output block
-d.add_path((2, 5), s_in_0, s_out_0, c=1.0)
-
-# Segment for l=0: ir_dim=1, mul_in=4, mul_out=3
-s_in_1 = d.add_segment(1, (1, 4))
-s_out_1 = d.add_segment(2, (1, 3))
-d.add_path((4, 3), s_in_1, s_out_1, c=1.0)
-```
-
-### Weights operand
-
-For weighted tensor products (subscript starting with `uvw` or `uv`), the first operand is always weights. The weight segment shape is `(mul_1, mul_2, ...)` matching the multiplicity modes. The weights operand gets `new_scalars()` irreps since weights are invariant.
-
-### CG coefficients as path coefficients
-
-```python
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uvw,iu,jv,kw+ijk")
-# For each pair of input irreps and each output irrep in the selection rule:
-for cg in cue.clebsch_gordan(ir1, ir2, ir3):
-    # cg has shape (ir1.dim, ir2.dim, ir3.dim)
-    d.add_path((mul1, mul2, mul3), seg_in1, seg_in2, seg_out, c=cg)
-```
-
-## Descriptors
-
-All descriptors come in two variants:
-
-- **Original** — returns `EquivariantPolynomial` with dense operands
-- **`_ir_dict`** — returns `IrDictPolynomial` with operands already split by irrep
-
-### EquivariantPolynomial descriptors
+These examples were checked with **cuEquivariance 0.12.0**. When executing,
+check the selected interpreter and the APIs needed for that workflow together:
 
 ```python
-# Fully connected tensor product (all input-output irrep combinations)
-e = cue.descriptors.fully_connected_tensor_product(
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-)
-
-# Channelwise tensor product (same-channel only, sparse)
-e = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product(
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"), simplify_irreps3=True,
-)
-
-# Full (weightless) tensor product
-e = cue.descriptors.full_tensor_product(
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "2x0 + 1x1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-
-# Elementwise tensor product (paired channels)
-e = cue.descriptors.elementwise_tensor_product(
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 4x1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 4x1"),
-)
-
-# Linear equivariant map (weight x input)
-e = cue.descriptors.linear(
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 2x1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "3x0 + 5x1"),
-)
-
-# Spherical harmonics
-e = cue.descriptors.spherical_harmonics(cue.SO3(1), [0, 1, 2, 3])
-
-# Symmetric contraction (MACE-style)
-e = cue.descriptors.symmetric_contraction(
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    (1, 2, 3),
-)

+try:
+    installed = version("cuequivariance")

 ```
 
-### IrDictPolynomial descriptors
-
-Each `_ir_dict` variant returns an `IrDictPolynomial` whose polynomial is already split by irrep. The `input_irreps` and `output_irreps` tuples describe the operand groups.
-
-```python
-# Channelwise tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-# desc.polynomial       — SegmentedPolynomial, already split by irrep
-# desc.input_irreps     — (weight_irreps, irreps1, irreps2)
-# desc.output_irreps    — (irreps_out,)
-
-# Fully connected tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.fully_connected_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2, irreps3)
-
-# Full (weightless) tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.full_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2)
-
-# Elementwise tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.elementwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2)
-
-# Linear
-desc = cue.descriptors.linear_ir_dict(irreps_in, irreps_out)
-
-# Spherical harmonics
-desc = cue.descriptors.spherical_harmonics_ir_dict(cue.O3(1, -1), [0, 1, 2, 3])
-
-# Symmetric contraction
-desc = cue.descriptors.symmetric_contraction_ir_dict(irreps_in, irreps_out, (1, 2, 3))
-```
-
-### IrDictPolynomial
-
-`IrDictPolynomial` pairs a `SegmentedPolynomial` (already split by irrep) with the `Irreps` that describe each operand group.
-
-```python
-desc = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(
-    32 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-
-desc.polynomial       # SegmentedPolynomial — each operand is one (mul, ir) block
-desc.input_irreps     # (weight_irreps, irreps1, irreps2)
-desc.output_irreps    # (irreps_out,)
-
-# Scale coefficients
-scaled_poly = desc.polynomial * 0.5
-
-# Access individual operand info
-for i, op in enumerate(desc.polynomial.inputs):
-    print(f"Input {i}: size={op.size}, num_segments={op.num_segments}")
-```
-
-Contract: for each `(mul, ir)` block in `input_irreps` / `output_irreps`, the corresponding polynomial operand has size `mul * ir.dim`.
-
-### split_polynomial_by_irreps
-
-The low-level function underlying `_ir_dict` descriptors. Splits one polynomial operand at irrep boundaries:
-
-```python
-poly = e.polynomial  # from an EquivariantPolynomial
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, 2, irreps_sh)   # split input 2
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, 1, irreps_in)   # split input 1
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, -1, irreps_out) # split output
-```
-
-### EquivariantPolynomial key methods
-
-```python
-e.inputs     # tuple of Rep (group representations for each input)
-e.outputs    # tuple of Rep
-e.polynomial # the underlying SegmentedPolynomial
-
-# Numpy evaluation
-[out] = e(weights, input1, input2)
-
-# Preparing for uniform_1d execution (see cuequivariance_jax SKILL.md)
-e_ready = e.squeeze_modes().flatten_coefficient_modes()
-
-# Split an operand into per-irrep pieces (for ir_dict interface)
-e_split = e.split_operand_by_irrep(1).split_operand_by_irrep(-1)
-
-# Scale all coefficients
-e_scaled = e * 0.5
-
-# Fuse compatible STPs
-e_fused = e.fuse_stps()
-```
-
-### normalize_paths_for_operand
-
-Called internally by descriptors. Normalizes path coefficients so that a random input produces unit-variance output for the specified operand. Critical for numerical stability.
-
-## SegmentedPolynomial structure
-
-```python
-poly = e.polynomial
-poly.num_inputs    # number of input operands
-poly.num_outputs   # number of output operands
-poly.inputs        # tuple of SegmentedOperand
-poly.outputs       # tuple of SegmentedOperand
-poly.operations    # tuple of (Operation, SegmentedTensorProduct)
-
-# Each operation maps buffers to STP operands
-for op, stp in poly.operations:
-    print(op.buffers)  # e.g., (0, 1, 2) means inputs[0], inputs[1] -> outputs[0]
-    print(stp.subscripts)
-```
-
-### SegmentedOperand
-
-```python
-operand = poly.inputs[0]
-operand.num_segments     # how many segments
-operand.segments         # tuple of shape tuples, e.g., ((3, 4), (1, 2))
-operand.size             # total flattened size (sum of products of segment shapes)
-operand.ndim             # number of dimensions per segment
-operand.all_same_segment_shape()  # True if all segments have identical shape
-operand.segment_shape    # the common shape (only if all_same_segment_shape)
-```
-
-## Custom equivariant polynomial from scratch
+Reuse a compatible project environment and its dependency constraints. If
+execution needs missing packages, use [isolated example execution](references/environment.md).
+Preserve existing virtual environments and the system/user Python installation;
+do not delete environments or bypass package-manager protections to repair setup.
+When installation is unavailable or disallowed, provide the runnable code and
+state which checks were not executed. Core examples need NumPy but neither CUDA
+nor JAX/PyTorch. If an API is unavailable, use a supported dense descriptor when
+it satisfies the task; do not invent a method or force an environment upgrade.
+
+For a framework task, inspect the installed `cuequivariance_jax` or
+`cuequivariance_torch` signature and its version's backend requirements.
+[Official documentation](https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuequivariance/) and the
+[0.12.0 source](https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuEquivariance/tree/v0.12.0) cover those
+separate packages.
+
+## Groups, multiplicities, and layout
+
+| Group | Construction | Dimension and meaning |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| SO(3) | `cue.SO3(l)` | `2*l + 1`; rotations; nonnegative integer `l` |
+| O(3) | `cue.O3(l, p)` | `2*l + 1`; also parity `p=+1` or `-1`, e.g. `0e`, `1o` |
+| SU(2) | `cue.SU2(j)` | `2*j + 1`; nonnegative integer or half-integer spin |
+
+`cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0 + 4x1 + 2x2")` has dimension 38. Iterating it yields
+`(multiplicity, irrep)` blocks. Multiplying an `Irreps` by an integer scales
+multiplicities; `ir1 * ir2` on individual irreps gives the selection rule.
+For SO(3), allowed output angular momenta run from `abs(l1-l2)` to `l1+l2`.
+For O(3), output parity must also equal `p1*p2`.
+
+Layout is defined **within each irrep block**, not across the whole vector:
+
+| Layout | Block shape before flattening |
+| --- | --- |
+| `cue.ir_mul` | `(..., ir.dim, mul)` |
+| `cue.mul_ir` | `(..., mul, ir.dim)` |
+
+Read `e.inputs[i].layout` and `e.outputs[i].layout` from the descriptor.
+The tensor-product examples here use `ir_mul`; many PyTorch layers default to
+`mul_ir` and accept explicit layout options. JAX dictionary features often use
+`mul_ir`, while polynomial execution can require `ir_mul`.
+Convert the actual data block by block with a transpose before flattening;
+changing metadata or calling `reshape` alone does not change the element order.
+Similarly, sorting or simplifying irreps metadata does not reorder an existing
+tensor. Preserve the descriptor's block order when evaluating it.
+
+## Runnable dense tensor product
+
+When the user asks for all output irreps, start with `full_tensor_product`.
+It has two inputs and no weights. This example includes all input definitions:
 
 ```python
 import numpy as np
 import cuequivariance as cue
 
-# Build a fully-connected SO3(1)xSO3(1)->SO3(0) tensor product manually
-cg = cue.clebsch_gordan(cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(0))  # shape (1, 3, 3, 1)
-
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uvw,iu,jv,kw+ijk")
-d.add_segment(1, (3, 4))   # input1: 4x SO3(1), shape=(ir_dim, mul)
-d.add_segment(2, (3, 4))   # input2: 4x SO3(1)
-d.add_segment(3, (1, 16))  # output: 16x SO3(0) (4*4 fully connected)
-
-for c in cg:
-    d.add_path((4, 4, 16), 0, 0, 0, c=c)
-
-d = d.normalize_paths_for_operand(-1)
-
-poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)
-ep = cue.EquivariantPolynomial(
-    [
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1").new_scalars(d.operands[0].size), cue.ir_mul),
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1"), cue.ir_mul),
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1"), cue.ir_mul),
-    ],
-    [cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0"), cue.ir_mul)],
-    poly,
-)
-
-# Numpy evaluation
-w = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[0].dim)
-x = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[1].dim)
-y = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[2].dim)

+## Select a descriptor
+
+All names below are under `cue.descriptors`. Inspect the returned input/output
+metadata to allocate arrays, including weights; do not guess the weight count.
+
+| Descriptor | Use and operand order |
+| --- | --- |
+| `linear(irreps_in, irreps_out)` | Mix multiplicities of matching irreps; weights, input → output |
+| `fully_connected_tensor_product(a, b, out)` | Choose exact output multiplicities; weights, input1, input2 → output |
+| `full_tensor_product(a, b)` | All allowed couplings, no weights; input1, input2 → output |
+| `channelwise_tensor_product(a, b, irreps3_filter=...)` | Weighted channel pairs; output multiplicity per path is `mul1*mul2` |
+| `elementwise_tensor_product(a, b)` | Paired channels without weights; inputs need equal numbers of irrep copies and compatible block boundaries |
+| `spherical_harmonics(cue.O3(1, -1), [0, 1, 2, 3])` | Vector → harmonics with parity; normalize input vectors separately if unit-sphere values are required |
+| `symmetric_contraction(irreps_in, irreps_out, (1, 2, 3))` | MACE-style polynomial correlations; inspect descriptor shapes and multiplicity constraints |
+
+The third argument to a channelwise product **filters irrep types**; it does not
+set output multiplicities. Channelwise retains pairs of channels (`u, v`), unlike
+elementwise's matched channel (`u`). Use `simplify_irreps3=True` when a dense
+channelwise descriptor should consolidate repeated output irreps.
+
+`EquivariantPolynomial` stores dense representation metadata in `inputs` and
+`outputs`, and its contraction in `polynomial`. Calling it returns a **list** of
+NumPy outputs, even for one output. The corresponding `_ir_dict` variants return
+metadata plus a polynomial already split by irrep; see the linked workflow.
+
+For a custom implementation, check output dimensions and finite values, then
+verify covariance under a nontrivial group transformation. Use the same group,
+basis, block order, and layout for both the inputs and expected output.

+# Custom Irrep subclasses

+Use this reference when built-in SO3, O3, and SU2 do not represent the user's
+group. Implement value equality and hashing so irreps work in dictionaries and
+selection rules. A frozen dataclass is a convenient way to do that; `cue.Irrep`
+itself is not a dataclass.

+
+The generator arrays have shapes `(num_discrete_generators, dim, dim)` and
+`(lie_dim, dim, dim)`. The algebra has shape `(lie_dim, lie_dim, lie_dim)`;
+finite groups use `lie_dim=0`. CG coefficients have shape
+`(num_paths, rep1.dim, rep2.dim, rep3.dim)` even when no coupling is allowed.
+The subclass's `__lt__` must implement its full ordering; an override does not
+automatically call the base class's dimension comparison.
+
+Validate parsing, equality, hashing, ordering, the group relations for the
+generators, and CG covariance. For each discrete generator, transforming both
+CG inputs must equal transforming the CG output. A selection rule alone does
+not establish that the coefficient tensor uses the correct basis.
+
+For a cyclic Z3 group, specify the representation field. Complex characters
+can use labels `k=0,1,2`, generator `exp(2j*pi*k/3)`, and the selection rule
+`k3=(k1+k2)%3` with real coefficient 1 for an allowed coupling. This is different
+from a real two-dimensional rotation representation. Check the intended
+backend's complex-array support before execution; core `Path` coefficients in
+0.12.0 are stored as float64 and cannot preserve complex CG coefficients.

+# Isolated example execution
+
+Use this reference only when an actual run needs dependencies absent from the
+selected interpreter. A request to explain an API or show code does not require
+environment setup. Preserve any explicit no-install or no-upgrade constraint.
+
+For work inside an existing project, use its environment and declared package
+versions. The commands below validate a standalone example against 0.12.0; they
+do not verify integration with a project that uses a different version.
+
+## When uv is already available
+
+Save the relevant Python example as `example.py` in the working directory, then:
+
+```bash
+uv run --no-project --isolated --with "cuequivariance==0.12.0" python example.py
+```
+
+This downloads dependencies if needed and runs in an isolated environment.
+`--no-project` prevents syncing the surrounding project's dependencies, and
+`--isolated` avoids reusing its virtual environment. Use the same invocation for
+subsequent checks; there is no need to activate, delete, or recreate a project
+environment. See [uv's script execution documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/scripts/).
+
+## Without uv
+
+If the selected Python has working `venv` and `ensurepip` support, create a new,
+uniquely named environment. This POSIX-shell example uses `python3`; substitute
+the chosen interpreter if the project uses another one:
+
+```bash
+cueq_env="$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/cuequivariance.XXXXXX")" &&
+python3 -m venv "$cueq_env" &&
+"$cueq_env/bin/python" -m pip install "cuequivariance==0.12.0" &&
+"$cueq_env/bin/python" example.py
+```
+
+Keep the environment path for any follow-up run. If setup fails, leave existing
+environments intact and retain the error. A missing `ensurepip` can be avoided
+with the uv route when uv is already available. If neither route is available,
+report that execution needs a working isolated Python environment; provide the
+code and its assertions without claiming they ran. Do not switch to system or
+user-site installs, remove an existing virtual environment, or override an
+externally managed Python installation just to run the example.

+# Irrep dictionaries and IrDictPolynomial
+
+`IrDictPolynomial` is **metadata**, not a callable dictionary layer. In 0.12.0
+it contains `polynomial`, `input_irreps`, and `output_irreps`. Each logical
+group (weights, features, harmonics, output) is described by one `Irreps`;
+each `(mul, ir)` block in that group becomes one polynomial operand of size
+`mul * ir.dim`. Operand order follows the groups and their blocks.
+
+The core descriptors `linear`, `fully_connected_tensor_product`,
+`channelwise_tensor_product`, `full_tensor_product`,
+`elementwise_tensor_product`, `spherical_harmonics`, and
+`symmetric_contraction` have `_ir_dict` variants in 0.12.0. Their polynomial
+is already split; do not split it again.
+
+## Runnable CPU example
+
+This example couples node features with edge harmonic coefficients, keeping
+output angular momentum up to 3. It demonstrates one interaction per batch
+element; graph gathering and aggregation belong in the framework layer.
+The sample harmonic coefficients are random test inputs, not harmonics
+computed from coordinates.
+
+Dictionary values here use `(..., mul, ir.dim)`. The descriptor expects
+`ir_mul`, so transpose each block before flattening it. Group by unique irrep
+keys before using a dictionary; repeated keys would overwrite earlier blocks.

+
+`channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict` consolidates output irreps automatically.
+Its third argument filters allowed irrep types; inspect `irreps_out` for the
+actual multiplicities. Use `fully_connected_tensor_product_ir_dict` when
+specific output channel counts are required.
+
+## Splitting an existing dense descriptor
+
+Prefer a built-in `_ir_dict` variant. For a custom dense polynomial,
+`cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, operand_id, irreps)` only splits buffers;
+it does not transpose data or change its layout. For a weighted tensor product,
+split input 2 before input 1, then the single output at `-1`. Higher input
+indices otherwise shift when a lower input is split. Wrap the final result in
+`cue.IrDictPolynomial(poly, input_irreps, output_irreps)` and ensure every
+group's block count, order, and size match its polynomial operands.
+
+## JAX execution boundary
+
+`cuequivariance_jax.ir_dict.segmented_polynomial_uniform_1d` accepts a polynomial
+and input/output pytrees. Each leaf must match its operand's
+`(..., num_segments, *segment_shape)`, with uniform segment shapes. This may
+require reshaping weights as well as transposing feature blocks. The wrapper
+uses JAX's leaf order, so ensure it agrees with the descriptor's irrep order;
+arbitrary dictionary insertion order is not a way to choose that order.
+
+The high-level convention `(..., mul, ir.dim)` is not sufficient to determine
+the execution shape. Read the actual operand descriptors and check the
+installed framework API, dtype, and device constraints before selecting this
+backend. Use the CPU example above to verify the mathematical contraction
+without making assumptions about a GPU kernel.

+# Segmented tensor products and polynomials
+
+An STP specifies a contraction over segmented flat operands. Its subscript
+string lists operands separated by commas; coefficient modes follow `+`.
+`add_segment` returns a segment index. In `add_path`, an integer selects an
+existing segment, a shape tuple creates a new one, and `c` supplies its scalar
+or tensor coefficient. Each resulting `Path` links one segment per operand.
+
+## Runnable matrix-vector contraction
+
+```python
+import numpy as np
+import cuequivariance as cue
+
+d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("ij,j,i")
+d.add_segment(0, (3, 4))
+d.add_segment(1, (4,))
+d.add_segment(2, (3,))
+d.add_path(0, 0, 0, c=1.0)
+poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)
+
+matrix = np.arange(12, dtype=float).reshape(3, 4)
+x = np.arange(4, dtype=float)
+[y] = poly(matrix.reshape(-1), x)
+np.testing.assert_allclose(y, matrix @ x)
+```
+
+The last operand of this STP becomes the polynomial's output. Flat input sizes
+must match `poly.inputs[i].size`; leading batch dimensions may broadcast.
+
+## Runnable weighted CG contraction
+
+This constructs SO3(1) × SO3(1) → SO3(0) with four channels per input and sixteen
+chosen scalar output channels. Sixteen is a design choice, not a requirement
+of the selection rule. The descriptor's first operand is invariant weights.
+
+```python
+import numpy as np
+import cuequivariance as cue
+
+irreps_in = cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1")
+irreps_out = cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0")
+d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uvw,iu,jv,kw+ijk")

+d.add_segment(2, (3, 4))
+d.add_segment(3, (1, 16))
+
+# cue.clebsch_gordan returns (num_paths, dim1, dim2, dim3).
+# Each path uses one (dim1, dim2, dim3) tensor, not the leading path axis.
+for cg in cue.clebsch_gordan(cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(0)):
+    d.add_path((4, 4, 16), 0, 0, 0, c=cg)
+d = d.normalize_paths_for_operand(-1)
+
+ep = cue.EquivariantPolynomial(
+    [
+        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(irreps_in.new_scalars(d.operands[0].size), cue.ir_mul),
+        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(irreps_in, cue.ir_mul),
+        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(irreps_in, cue.ir_mul),
+    ],
+    [cue.IrrepsAndLayout(irreps_out, cue.ir_mul)],
+    cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d),
+)
+rng = np.random.default_rng(1)
+w = rng.normal(size=ep.inputs[0].dim)
+x1 = rng.normal(size=(2, ep.inputs[1].dim))
+x2 = rng.normal(size=(2, ep.inputs[2].dim))
+[out] = ep(w, x1, x2)
+assert out.shape == (2, 16)
+
+# Compare to the library's equivalent descriptor.
+builtin = cue.descriptors.fully_connected_tensor_product(
+    irreps_in, irreps_in, irreps_out,
+)
+np.testing.assert_allclose(out, builtin(w, x1, x2)[0])
+```
+
+For multiple irrep blocks, add a segment for each block and loop over the
+allowed `(ir1, ir2, ir3)` triples and their CG paths. Derive weight size from
+the constructed descriptor. An STP's operand order is chosen by its author;
+weights-first is the convention of these weighted descriptors, not a rule
+for every STP.
+
+`normalize_paths_for_operand(-1)` changes coefficients for the descriptor's
+unit-variance convention. Apply it when matching that convention, not when
+the user needs exact, unnormalized coefficients such as matrix multiplication.
+
+## Inspect and transform
+
+- `e.inputs`, `e.outputs`: dense `Rep` metadata; `e.polynomial`: contraction.
+- `poly.inputs`, `poly.outputs`: `SegmentedOperand` objects with `size`,
+  `num_segments`, `segments`, and `ndim`.
+- `operand.all_same_segment_shape()` must be true before reading
+  `operand.segment_shape`.
+- `poly.operations`: `(Operation, SegmentedTensorProduct)` pairs. `op.buffers`
+  indexes the concatenation of polynomial inputs and outputs; with two inputs,
+  `(0, 1, 2)` means input 0, input 1, output 0.
+- `e * 0.5` scales coefficients; `e.fuse_stps()` fuses compatible operations.
+- `e.squeeze_modes().flatten_coefficient_modes()` prepares some descriptors
+  for uniform-segment execution; the selected backend's shape constraints
+  still need checking.
+- `e.split_operand_by_irrep(i)` splits dense representation metadata along
+  with the polynomial. If splitting several inputs, split higher indices first
+  because earlier splits change the following operand indices.
+
+To validate equivariance on CPU, use each `IrrepsAndLayout.exp_map` with the
+same rotation parameters. With row-vector batches, apply the representation
+as `x @ D.T`, evaluate the transformed inputs, and compare with `out @ D_out.T`.
+Invariant weight operands stay unchanged.

+
+## Results at a Glance
+
+| Measure | Claude Code (Baseline → Skill Uplift) | Codex (Baseline → Skill Uplift) |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| Overall | 87.7% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 91.1% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable |
+| Security | 100.0% → 66.7% (-33.3 points) | 100.0% → 83.3% (-16.7 points) |
+| Correctness | 83.3% → 100.0% (+16.7 points) | 100.0% → 100.0% (±0.0 points) |
+| Discoverability | 96.6% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 90.0% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable |
+| Effectiveness | 78.2% → 90.8% (+12.6 points) | 69.8% → 89.7% (+19.9 points) |
+| Efficiency | 84.4% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable | 92.6% — baseline ran, but no comparable score was available; uplift unavailable |
+
+**How to read this table:** baseline is the same task attempted without the target skill. Scores are rounded to one decimal; threshold-adjacent values use additional precision so their displayed band matches the verdict. Uplift is derived from those displayed scores and shown in percentage points.
+
+Example: `47.0% → 92.0% (+45.0 points)` means the skill-assisted run scored 92.0%, 45.0 percentage points above its 47.0% no-skill baseline.
+
+A partial dimension was calculated from only the available configured signals; review the detailed report before relying on it.

+<summary>Show dimension definitions, source signals, and thresholds</summary>
+
+| Dimension | Question | Scored signals |
+|---|---|---|
+| Security | Is it safe to use? | `security` (100%) |

+
+- Dimension bands: PASS at 50% or above; NEUTRAL from 40% to below 50%; FAIL below 40%.
+- Overall Tier 3 lift: PASS at +5 points or more; FAIL at -10 points or less; values between those bands are NEUTRAL.
+- Overall verdict: PASS only when every configured dimension passes for at least one supported agent. Lift is reported as diagnostic evidence and does not override this gate.
+- The 50% attempt pass threshold is a separate per-task gate; it is not the dimension pass threshold.
+- Effectiveness is the equal-weight mean of goal completion (`goal_accuracy`) and expected workflow adherence (`behavior_check`).
+- Efficiency is 50% tool-call productivity (the backward-compatible `skill_efficiency` wire id) and 50% `token_efficiency`. Positive-case skill routing is scored under Discoverability, not Efficiency; a negative case without a routing target is N/A. N/A sources are omitted, remaining weights are renormalized, and the dimension is marked partial.
+
+Signals present in this run:
+
+- `security` (Security): unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access.
+- `skill_execution` (Skill Execution): whether the expected skill was selected, decoys were avoided, and the workflow executed.
+- `skill_efficiency` (Tool Productivity): tool-call productivity (legacy wire id; routing is scored under Discoverability).
+- `accuracy` (Accuracy): final-answer correctness against the reference answer.
+- `goal_accuracy` (Goal Accuracy): whether the user's goal was achieved.
+- `behavior_check` (Behavior Check): whether the expected workflow behavior was followed.
+- `token_efficiency` (Token Efficiency): actual uncached prompt plus completion usage (50% of Efficiency).

 name: cuequivariance
-description: Define custom groups (Irrep subclasses), build segmented tensor products with CG coefficients, create equivariant polynomials and IrDictPolynomials, and use built-in descriptors (linear, tensor products, spherical harmonics). Use when working with cuequivariance group theory, irreps, or segmented polynomials.
+description: Build and debug cuEquivariance irreps, custom Irrep subclasses, Clebsch-Gordan tensor products, and equivariant or segmented polynomials. Use for cuequivariance core descriptors and IrDictPolynomial layout or shape questions; framework execution requires the matching JAX or PyTorch API.
 ---
 
-# cuequivariance: Groups, Irreps, and Segmented Polynomials
+# cuEquivariance core
 
-## Overview
+Use `cuequivariance` (`import cuequivariance as cue`) to describe group
+representations and tensor contractions. Prefer a built-in descriptor when it
+expresses the requested operation; construct a `SegmentedTensorProduct` only
+for a custom contraction. Core polynomials can be evaluated with NumPy on CPU.
+They do not create trainable framework parameters or select a GPU kernel.
 
-`cuequivariance` (imported as `cue`) provides two core abstractions:
+## Choose the workflow
 
-1. **Group theory**: `Irrep` subclasses define irreducible representations of Lie groups (SO3, O3, SU2, or custom). `Irreps` manages collections with multiplicities.
-2. **Segmented polynomials**: `SegmentedTensorProduct` describes tensor contractions over segments of varying shape, linked by `Path` objects carrying Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. `SegmentedPolynomial` wraps multiple STPs into a polynomial with named inputs/outputs. Two higher-level wrappers attach group representations:
-   - `EquivariantPolynomial` — dense operands with `IrrepsAndLayout` metadata
-   - `IrDictPolynomial` — operands already split by irrep, with per-group `Irreps` metadata for the `dict[Irrep, Array]` workflow
+- For built-in groups and dense descriptors, use the examples below.
+- For a new group, read [custom irreps](references/custom-irreps.md).
+- For custom contractions, CG paths, or polynomial inspection, read
+  [segmented polynomials](references/segmented-polynomials.md).
+- For dictionaries keyed by irrep, read [the ir_dict workflow](references/ir-dict.md).
+  It includes a CPU example and the boundary with JAX execution.
 
-## Defining a custom group
+For explanations or requests to show runnable code, adapt the closest example;
+installing packages is not a prerequisite to answering. Read the reference for
+the selected workflow. Execute code when the user requests a run or when an
+integration or correctness question needs a runtime check. Inspect upstream
+source when the installed API differs or a numerical check fails.

-## Irreps and layout
-
-```python
-irreps = cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0 + 4x1 + 2x2")  # 16 scalars, 4 vectors, 2 rank-2
-irreps.dim   # 16*1 + 4*3 + 2*5 = 38
-
-for mul, ir in irreps:
-    print(mul, ir, ir.dim)  # 16 0 1, then 4 1 3, then 2 2 5
-```
-
-`IrrepsLayout` controls memory order within each `(mul, ir)` block:
-
-- `cue.ir_mul`: data ordered as `(ir.dim, mul)` — **used by all descriptors and ir_dict internally**
-- `cue.mul_ir`: data ordered as `(mul, ir.dim)` — **used by nnx `dict[Irrep, Array]` and PyTorch**
-
-`IrrepsAndLayout` combines irreps with a layout into a `Rep`:

-```
-
-## Building a SegmentedTensorProduct from scratch
-
-The subscripts string uses Einstein notation. Operands are comma-separated, coefficient modes follow `+`.
-
-```python
-# Matrix-vector multiply: y_i = sum_j M_ij * x_j
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("ij,j,i")
-d.add_segment(0, (3, 4))  # operand 0: matrix segment of shape (3, 4)
-d.add_segment(1, (4,))     # operand 1: vector of size 4
-d.add_segment(2, (3,))     # operand 2: output vector of size 3
-d.add_path(0, 0, 0, c=1.0) # link segments 0,0,0 with coefficient=1.0
-
-poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)  # last operand becomes output
-[y] = poly(M_flat, x)  # numpy evaluation
-```
-
-### Multi-segment STP (how descriptors work internally)
-
-Descriptors build STPs with multiple segments per operand. Each segment corresponds to an irrep block:
-
-```python
-# Linear equivariant map: output[iv] = sum_u weight[uv] * input[iu]
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uv,iu,iv")
-
-# Segment for l=1: ir_dim=3, mul_in=2, mul_out=5
-s_in_0 = d.add_segment(1, (3, 2))    # input block
-s_out_0 = d.add_segment(2, (3, 5))   # output block
-d.add_path((2, 5), s_in_0, s_out_0, c=1.0)
-
-# Segment for l=0: ir_dim=1, mul_in=4, mul_out=3
-s_in_1 = d.add_segment(1, (1, 4))
-s_out_1 = d.add_segment(2, (1, 3))
-d.add_path((4, 3), s_in_1, s_out_1, c=1.0)
-```
-
-### Weights operand
-
-For weighted tensor products (subscript starting with `uvw` or `uv`), the first operand is always weights. The weight segment shape is `(mul_1, mul_2, ...)` matching the multiplicity modes. The weights operand gets `new_scalars()` irreps since weights are invariant.
-
-### CG coefficients as path coefficients
-
-```python
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uvw,iu,jv,kw+ijk")
-# For each pair of input irreps and each output irrep in the selection rule:
-for cg in cue.clebsch_gordan(ir1, ir2, ir3):
-    # cg has shape (ir1.dim, ir2.dim, ir3.dim)
-    d.add_path((mul1, mul2, mul3), seg_in1, seg_in2, seg_out, c=cg)
-```
-
-## Descriptors
-
-All descriptors come in two variants:
-
-- **Original** — returns `EquivariantPolynomial` with dense operands
-- **`_ir_dict`** — returns `IrDictPolynomial` with operands already split by irrep
-
-### EquivariantPolynomial descriptors
+These examples were checked with **cuEquivariance 0.12.0**. When executing,
+check the selected interpreter and the APIs needed for that workflow together:
 
 ```python
-# Fully connected tensor product (all input-output irrep combinations)
-e = cue.descriptors.fully_connected_tensor_product(
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-    16 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2"),
-)
-
-# Channelwise tensor product (same-channel only, sparse)
-e = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product(
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"), simplify_irreps3=True,
-)
-

-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "2x0 + 1x1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-
-# Elementwise tensor product (paired channels)
-e = cue.descriptors.elementwise_tensor_product(
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 4x1"), cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x0 + 4x1"),
-)
-

-### IrDictPolynomial descriptors
-
-Each `_ir_dict` variant returns an `IrDictPolynomial` whose polynomial is already split by irrep. The `input_irreps` and `output_irreps` tuples describe the operand groups.
-
-```python
-# Channelwise tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(
-    64 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-# desc.polynomial       — SegmentedPolynomial, already split by irrep
-# desc.input_irreps     — (weight_irreps, irreps1, irreps2)
-# desc.output_irreps    — (irreps_out,)
-
-# Fully connected tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.fully_connected_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2, irreps3)
-
-# Full (weightless) tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.full_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2)
-
-# Elementwise tensor product
-desc = cue.descriptors.elementwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(irreps1, irreps2)
-
-# Linear
-desc = cue.descriptors.linear_ir_dict(irreps_in, irreps_out)
-
-# Spherical harmonics
-desc = cue.descriptors.spherical_harmonics_ir_dict(cue.O3(1, -1), [0, 1, 2, 3])
-
-# Symmetric contraction
-desc = cue.descriptors.symmetric_contraction_ir_dict(irreps_in, irreps_out, (1, 2, 3))
-```
-
-### IrDictPolynomial
-
-`IrDictPolynomial` pairs a `SegmentedPolynomial` (already split by irrep) with the `Irreps` that describe each operand group.
-
-```python
-desc = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(
-    32 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-    cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1"),
-)
-
-desc.polynomial       # SegmentedPolynomial — each operand is one (mul, ir) block
-desc.input_irreps     # (weight_irreps, irreps1, irreps2)
-desc.output_irreps    # (irreps_out,)
-
-# Scale coefficients
-scaled_poly = desc.polynomial * 0.5
-
-# Access individual operand info
-for i, op in enumerate(desc.polynomial.inputs):
-    print(f"Input {i}: size={op.size}, num_segments={op.num_segments}")
-```
-
-Contract: for each `(mul, ir)` block in `input_irreps` / `output_irreps`, the corresponding polynomial operand has size `mul * ir.dim`.
-
-### split_polynomial_by_irreps
-
-The low-level function underlying `_ir_dict` descriptors. Splits one polynomial operand at irrep boundaries:
-
-```python
-poly = e.polynomial  # from an EquivariantPolynomial
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, 2, irreps_sh)   # split input 2
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, 1, irreps_in)   # split input 1
-poly = cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, -1, irreps_out) # split output
-```
-
-### EquivariantPolynomial key methods
-
-```python
-e.inputs     # tuple of Rep (group representations for each input)
-e.outputs    # tuple of Rep
-e.polynomial # the underlying SegmentedPolynomial
-
-# Numpy evaluation
-[out] = e(weights, input1, input2)
-
-# Preparing for uniform_1d execution (see cuequivariance_jax SKILL.md)
-e_ready = e.squeeze_modes().flatten_coefficient_modes()
-
-# Split an operand into per-irrep pieces (for ir_dict interface)
-e_split = e.split_operand_by_irrep(1).split_operand_by_irrep(-1)
-
-# Scale all coefficients
-e_scaled = e * 0.5
-
-# Fuse compatible STPs
-e_fused = e.fuse_stps()
-```
-
-### normalize_paths_for_operand
-
-Called internally by descriptors. Normalizes path coefficients so that a random input produces unit-variance output for the specified operand. Critical for numerical stability.
-
-## SegmentedPolynomial structure
-
-```python
-poly = e.polynomial
-poly.num_inputs    # number of input operands
-poly.num_outputs   # number of output operands
-poly.inputs        # tuple of SegmentedOperand
-poly.outputs       # tuple of SegmentedOperand
-poly.operations    # tuple of (Operation, SegmentedTensorProduct)
-
-# Each operation maps buffers to STP operands
-for op, stp in poly.operations:
-    print(op.buffers)  # e.g., (0, 1, 2) means inputs[0], inputs[1] -> outputs[0]
-    print(stp.subscripts)
-```
-
-### SegmentedOperand
-
-```python
-operand = poly.inputs[0]
-operand.num_segments     # how many segments
-operand.segments         # tuple of shape tuples, e.g., ((3, 4), (1, 2))
-operand.size             # total flattened size (sum of products of segment shapes)
-operand.ndim             # number of dimensions per segment
-operand.all_same_segment_shape()  # True if all segments have identical shape
-operand.segment_shape    # the common shape (only if all_same_segment_shape)
-```
-
-## Custom equivariant polynomial from scratch
+Reuse a compatible project environment and its dependency constraints. If
+execution needs missing packages, use [isolated example execution](references/environment.md).
+Preserve existing virtual environments and the system/user Python installation;
+do not delete environments or bypass package-manager protections to repair setup.
+When installation is unavailable or disallowed, provide the runnable code and
+state which checks were not executed. Core examples need NumPy but neither CUDA
+nor JAX/PyTorch. If an API is unavailable, use a supported dense descriptor when
+it satisfies the task; do not invent a method or force an environment upgrade.
+
+For a framework task, inspect the installed `cuequivariance_jax` or
+`cuequivariance_torch` signature and its version's backend requirements.
+[Official documentation](https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuequivariance/) and the
+[0.12.0 source](https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuEquivariance/tree/v0.12.0) cover those
+separate packages.
+
+## Groups, multiplicities, and layout
+
+| Group | Construction | Dimension and meaning |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| SO(3) | `cue.SO3(l)` | `2*l + 1`; rotations; nonnegative integer `l` |
+| O(3) | `cue.O3(l, p)` | `2*l + 1`; also parity `p=+1` or `-1`, e.g. `0e`, `1o` |
+| SU(2) | `cue.SU2(j)` | `2*j + 1`; nonnegative integer or half-integer spin |
+
+`cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0 + 4x1 + 2x2")` has dimension 38. Iterating it yields
+`(multiplicity, irrep)` blocks. Multiplying an `Irreps` by an integer scales
+multiplicities; `ir1 * ir2` on individual irreps gives the selection rule.
+For SO(3), allowed output angular momenta run from `abs(l1-l2)` to `l1+l2`.
+For O(3), output parity must also equal `p1*p2`.
+
+Layout is defined **within each irrep block**, not across the whole vector:
+
+| Layout | Block shape before flattening |
+| --- | --- |
+| `cue.ir_mul` | `(..., ir.dim, mul)` |
+| `cue.mul_ir` | `(..., mul, ir.dim)` |
+
+Read `e.inputs[i].layout` and `e.outputs[i].layout` from the descriptor.
+The tensor-product examples here use `ir_mul`; many PyTorch layers default to
+`mul_ir` and accept explicit layout options. JAX dictionary features often use
+`mul_ir`, while polynomial execution can require `ir_mul`.
+Convert the actual data block by block with a transpose before flattening;
+changing metadata or calling `reshape` alone does not change the element order.
+Similarly, sorting or simplifying irreps metadata does not reorder an existing
+tensor. Preserve the descriptor's block order when evaluating it.
+
+## Runnable dense tensor product
+
+When the user asks for all output irreps, start with `full_tensor_product`.
+It has two inputs and no weights. This example includes all input definitions:
 
 ```python
 import numpy as np
 import cuequivariance as cue
 
-# Build a fully-connected SO3(1)xSO3(1)->SO3(0) tensor product manually
-cg = cue.clebsch_gordan(cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(1), cue.SO3(0))  # shape (1, 3, 3, 1)
-
-d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("uvw,iu,jv,kw+ijk")
-d.add_segment(1, (3, 4))   # input1: 4x SO3(1), shape=(ir_dim, mul)
-d.add_segment(2, (3, 4))   # input2: 4x SO3(1)
-d.add_segment(3, (1, 16))  # output: 16x SO3(0) (4*4 fully connected)
-
-for c in cg:
-    d.add_path((4, 4, 16), 0, 0, 0, c=c)
-
-d = d.normalize_paths_for_operand(-1)
-
-poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)
-ep = cue.EquivariantPolynomial(
-    [
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1").new_scalars(d.operands[0].size), cue.ir_mul),
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1"), cue.ir_mul),
-        cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "4x1"), cue.ir_mul),
-    ],
-    [cue.IrrepsAndLayout(cue.Irreps("SO3", "16x0"), cue.ir_mul)],
-    poly,
-)
-
-# Numpy evaluation
-w = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[0].dim)
-x = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[1].dim)
-y = np.random.randn(ep.inputs[2].dim)
-[out] = ep(w, x, y)
+irreps1 = cue.Irreps("SO3", "2x0 + 1x1 + 1x2")
+irreps2 = cue.Irreps("SO3", "1x0 + 1x1")
+e = cue.descriptors.full_tensor_product(irreps1, irreps2)
+rng = np.random.default_rng(0)
+x1 = rng.normal(size=(4, e.inputs[0].dim))
+x2 = rng.normal(size=(4, e.inputs[1].dim))
+[out] = e(x1, x2)
+assert out.shape == (4, 40)
+assert np.isfinite(out).all()
+
+# A multiplicity summary for display; keep e.outputs[0] for out's actual layout.
+summary = e.outputs[0].irreps.sort().irreps.simplify()
+assert summary == cue.Irreps("SO3", "3x0 + 5x1 + 3x2 + 1x3")
 ```

+## Select a descriptor
+
+All names below are under `cue.descriptors`. Inspect the returned input/output
+metadata to allocate arrays, including weights; do not guess the weight count.
+
+| Descriptor | Use and operand order |
+| --- | --- |
+| `linear(irreps_in, irreps_out)` | Mix multiplicities of matching irreps; weights, input → output |
+| `fully_connected_tensor_product(a, b, out)` | Choose exact output multiplicities; weights, input1, input2 → output |
+| `full_tensor_product(a, b)` | All allowed couplings, no weights; input1, input2 → output |
+| `channelwise_tensor_product(a, b, irreps3_filter=...)` | Weighted channel pairs; output multiplicity per path is `mul1*mul2` |
+| `elementwise_tensor_product(a, b)` | Paired channels without weights; inputs need equal numbers of irrep copies and compatible block boundaries |
+| `spherical_harmonics(cue.O3(1, -1), [0, 1, 2, 3])` | Vector → harmonics with parity; normalize input vectors separately if unit-sphere values are required |
+| `symmetric_contraction(irreps_in, irreps_out, (1, 2, 3))` | MACE-style polynomial correlations; inspect descriptor shapes and multiplicity constraints |
+
+The third argument to a channelwise product **filters irrep types**; it does not
+set output multiplicities. Channelwise retains pairs of channels (`u, v`), unlike
+elementwise's matched channel (`u`). Use `simplify_irreps3=True` when a dense
+channelwise descriptor should consolidate repeated output irreps.
+
+`EquivariantPolynomial` stores dense representation metadata in `inputs` and
+`outputs`, and its contraction in `polynomial`. Calling it returns a **list** of
+NumPy outputs, even for one output. The corresponding `_ir_dict` variants return
+metadata plus a polynomial already split by irrep; see the linked workflow.
+
+For a custom implementation, check output dimensions and finite values, then
+verify covariance under a nontrivial group transformation. Use the same group,
+basis, block order, and layout for both the inputs and expected output.

+# Custom Irrep subclasses
+
+Use this reference when built-in SO3, O3, and SU2 do not represent the user's

+selection rules. A frozen dataclass is a convenient way to do that; `cue.Irrep`
+itself is not a dataclass.
+

+
+The generator arrays have shapes `(num_discrete_generators, dim, dim)` and
+`(lie_dim, dim, dim)`. The algebra has shape `(lie_dim, lie_dim, lie_dim)`;
+finite groups use `lie_dim=0`. CG coefficients have shape
+`(num_paths, rep1.dim, rep2.dim, rep3.dim)` even when no coupling is allowed.
+The subclass's `__lt__` must implement its full ordering; an override does not
+automatically call the base class's dimension comparison.
+
+Validate parsing, equality, hashing, ordering, the group relations for the
+generators, and CG covariance. For each discrete generator, transforming both
+CG inputs must equal transforming the CG output. A selection rule alone does
+not establish that the coefficient tensor uses the correct basis.
+
+For a cyclic Z3 group, specify the representation field. Complex characters
+can use labels `k=0,1,2`, generator `exp(2j*pi*k/3)`, and the selection rule
+`k3=(k1+k2)%3` with real coefficient 1 for an allowed coupling. This is different
+from a real two-dimensional rotation representation. Check the intended
+backend's complex-array support before execution; core `Path` coefficients in
+0.12.0 are stored as float64 and cannot preserve complex CG coefficients.

+# Isolated example execution
+
+Use this reference only when an actual run needs dependencies absent from the
+selected interpreter. A request to explain an API or show code does not require
+environment setup. Preserve any explicit no-install or no-upgrade constraint.
+
+For work inside an existing project, use its environment and declared package
+versions. The commands below validate a standalone example against 0.12.0; they
+do not verify integration with a project that uses a different version.
+
+## When uv is already available
+
+Save the relevant Python example as `example.py` in the working directory, then:
+
+```bash
+uv run --no-project --isolated --with "cuequivariance==0.12.0" python example.py
+```
+
+This downloads dependencies if needed and runs in an isolated environment.
+`--no-project` prevents syncing the surrounding project's dependencies, and
+`--isolated` avoids reusing its virtual environment. Use the same invocation for
+subsequent checks; there is no need to activate, delete, or recreate a project
+environment. See [uv's script execution documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/scripts/).
+
+## Without uv
+
+If the selected Python has working `venv` and `ensurepip` support, create a new,
+uniquely named environment. This POSIX-shell example uses `python3`; substitute
+the chosen interpreter if the project uses another one:
+
+```bash
+cueq_env="$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/cuequivariance.XXXXXX")" &&
+python3 -m venv "$cueq_env" &&
+"$cueq_env/bin/python" -m pip install "cuequivariance==0.12.0" &&
+"$cueq_env/bin/python" example.py
+```
+
+Keep the environment path for any follow-up run. If setup fails, leave existing
+environments intact and retain the error. A missing `ensurepip` can be avoided
+with the uv route when uv is already available. If neither route is available,
+report that execution needs a working isolated Python environment; provide the
+code and its assertions without claiming they ran. Do not switch to system or
+user-site installs, remove an existing virtual environment, or override an
+externally managed Python installation just to run the example.

+# Irrep dictionaries and IrDictPolynomial
+
+`IrDictPolynomial` is **metadata**, not a callable dictionary layer. In 0.12.0
+it contains `polynomial`, `input_irreps`, and `output_irreps`. Each logical
+group (weights, features, harmonics, output) is described by one `Irreps`;
+each `(mul, ir)` block in that group becomes one polynomial operand of size
+`mul * ir.dim`. Operand order follows the groups and their blocks.
+
+The core descriptors `linear`, `fully_connected_tensor_product`,
+`channelwise_tensor_product`, `full_tensor_product`,
+`elementwise_tensor_product`, `spherical_harmonics`, and
+`symmetric_contraction` have `_ir_dict` variants in 0.12.0. Their polynomial
+is already split; do not split it again.
+
+## Runnable CPU example
+
+This example couples node features with edge harmonic coefficients, keeping
+output angular momentum up to 3. It demonstrates one interaction per batch
+element; graph gathering and aggregation belong in the framework layer.
+The sample harmonic coefficients are random test inputs, not harmonics
+computed from coordinates.
+
+Dictionary values here use `(..., mul, ir.dim)`. The descriptor expects
+`ir_mul`, so transpose each block before flattening it. Group by unique irrep
+keys before using a dictionary; repeated keys would overwrite earlier blocks.
+
+```python
+import numpy as np
+import cuequivariance as cue
+
+features = 4 * cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2")
+harmonics = cue.Irreps("SO3", "0 + 1 + 2 + 3")
+output_filter = [cue.SO3(l) for l in range(4)]
+desc = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict(
+    features, harmonics, output_filter,
+)
+weight_irreps, features, harmonics = desc.input_irreps
+(irreps_out,) = desc.output_irreps
+poly = desc.polynomial
+rng = np.random.default_rng(2)
+batch = 2
+
+
+def random_group(irreps):
+    assert len({ir for _, ir in irreps}) == len(irreps)
+    return {ir: rng.normal(size=(batch, mul, ir.dim)) for mul, ir in irreps}
+
+
+def flatten_group(irreps, values):
+    # Use descriptor order, not dictionary insertion order.
+    return [
+        values[ir].swapaxes(-1, -2).reshape(batch, ir.dim * mul)
+        for mul, ir in irreps
+    ]
+
+
+w, x, sh = [random_group(irs) for irs in desc.input_irreps]
+flat_inputs = [
+    block
+    for irreps, values in zip(desc.input_irreps, (w, x, sh))
+    for block in flatten_group(irreps, values)
+]
+assert len(flat_inputs) == poly.num_inputs
+blocks = poly(*flat_inputs)
+assert len(blocks) == len(irreps_out)
+result = {
+    ir: block.reshape(batch, ir.dim, mul).swapaxes(-1, -2)
+    for (mul, ir), block in zip(irreps_out, blocks)
+}
+for mul, ir in irreps_out:
+    assert result[ir].shape == (batch, mul, ir.dim)
+    assert np.isfinite(result[ir]).all()
+
+# Same operation as a dense descriptor with consolidated output irreps.
+dense = cue.descriptors.channelwise_tensor_product(
+    features, harmonics, output_filter, simplify_irreps3=True,
+)
+dense_inputs = [
+    np.concatenate(flatten_group(irs, values), axis=-1)
+    for irs, values in zip(desc.input_irreps, (w, x, sh))
+]
+np.testing.assert_allclose(
+    np.concatenate(blocks, axis=-1), dense(*dense_inputs)[0],
+)
+```
+
+`channelwise_tensor_product_ir_dict` consolidates output irreps automatically.
+Its third argument filters allowed irrep types; inspect `irreps_out` for the
+actual multiplicities. Use `fully_connected_tensor_product_ir_dict` when
+specific output channel counts are required.
+
+## Splitting an existing dense descriptor
+
+Prefer a built-in `_ir_dict` variant. For a custom dense polynomial,
+`cue.split_polynomial_by_irreps(poly, operand_id, irreps)` only splits buffers;
+it does not transpose data or change its layout. For a weighted tensor product,
+split input 2 before input 1, then the single output at `-1`. Higher input
+indices otherwise shift when a lower input is split. Wrap the final result in
+`cue.IrDictPolynomial(poly, input_irreps, output_irreps)` and ensure every
+group's block count, order, and size match its polynomial operands.
+
+## JAX execution boundary
+
+`cuequivariance_jax.ir_dict.segmented_polynomial_uniform_1d` accepts a polynomial
+and input/output pytrees. Each leaf must match its operand's
+`(..., num_segments, *segment_shape)`, with uniform segment shapes. This may
+require reshaping weights as well as transposing feature blocks. The wrapper
+uses JAX's leaf order, so ensure it agrees with the descriptor's irrep order;
+arbitrary dictionary insertion order is not a way to choose that order.
+
+The high-level convention `(..., mul, ir.dim)` is not sufficient to determine
+the execution shape. Read the actual operand descriptors and check the
+installed framework API, dtype, and device constraints before selecting this
+backend. Use the CPU example above to verify the mathematical contraction
+without making assumptions about a GPU kernel.

+# Segmented tensor products and polynomials
+
+An STP specifies a contraction over segmented flat operands. Its subscript
+string lists operands separated by commas; coefficient modes follow `+`.
+`add_segment` returns a segment index. In `add_path`, an integer selects an
+existing segment, a shape tuple creates a new one, and `c` supplies its scalar
+or tensor coefficient. Each resulting `Path` links one segment per operand.
+
+## Runnable matrix-vector contraction
+
+```python
+import numpy as np
+import cuequivariance as cue
+
+d = cue.SegmentedTensorProduct.from_subscripts("ij,j,i")
+d.add_segment(0, (3, 4))
+d.add_segment(1, (4,))
+d.add_segment(2, (3,))
+d.add_path(0, 0, 0, c=1.0)
+poly = cue.SegmentedPolynomial.eval_last_operand(d)
+
+matrix = np.arange(12, dtype=float).reshape(3, 4)
+x = np.arange(4, dtype=float)
+[y] = poly(matrix.reshape(-1), x)
+np.testing.assert_allclose(y, matrix @ x)
+```
+
+The last operand of this STP becomes the polynomial's output. Flat input sizes
+must match `poly.inputs[i].size`; leading batch dimensions may broadcast.
+
+## Runnable weighted CG contraction
+
+This constructs SO3(1) × SO3(1) → SO3(0) with four channels per input and sixteen
+chosen scalar output channels. Sixteen is a design choice, not a requirement
+of the selection rule. The descriptor's first operand is invariant weights.
+
+```python

+
+For multiple irrep blocks, add a segment for each block and loop over the
+allowed `(ir1, ir2, ir3)` triples and their CG paths. Derive weight size from
+the constructed descriptor. An STP's operand order is chosen by its author;
+weights-first is the convention of these weighted descriptors, not a rule
+for every STP.
+
+`normalize_paths_for_operand(-1)` changes coefficients for the descriptor's
+unit-variance convention. Apply it when matching that convention, not when
+the user needs exact, unnormalized coefficients such as matrix multiplication.
+
+## Inspect and transform
+
+- `e.inputs`, `e.outputs`: dense `Rep` metadata; `e.polynomial`: contraction.
+- `poly.inputs`, `poly.outputs`: `SegmentedOperand` objects with `size`,
+  `num_segments`, `segments`, and `ndim`.
+- `operand.all_same_segment_shape()` must be true before reading
+  `operand.segment_shape`.
+- `poly.operations`: `(Operation, SegmentedTensorProduct)` pairs. `op.buffers`
+  indexes the concatenation of polynomial inputs and outputs; with two inputs,
+  `(0, 1, 2)` means input 0, input 1, output 0.
+- `e * 0.5` scales coefficients; `e.fuse_stps()` fuses compatible operations.
+- `e.squeeze_modes().flatten_coefficient_modes()` prepares some descriptors
+  for uniform-segment execution; the selected backend's shape constraints
+  still need checking.
+- `e.split_operand_by_irrep(i)` splits dense representation metadata along
+  with the polynomial. If splitting several inputs, split higher indices first
+  because earlier splits change the following operand indices.
+
+To validate equivariance on CPU, use each `IrrepsAndLayout.exp_map` with the
+same rotation parameters. With row-vector batches, apply the representation
+as `x @ D.T`, evaluate the transformed inputs, and compare with `out @ D_out.T`.
+Invariant weight operands stay unchanged.
