System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Downloads a dataset from an arbitrary HTTPS URL into a named Pixie tool's data folder with safe extraction and checksum verification. Use when the user provides a URL to fetch data, while avoiding Kaggle, HuggingFace, local paths, or Git repos.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safe, resumable downloads with sha256 verification and licence detection.
  • Supports common data formats (CSV, Parquet, JSON, JSONL, HDF5, NPZ, NPY) and archives (.zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz, .7z).
  • Automatic routing: delegates to specialized skills for Kaggle, HuggingFace, local paths, or Git repos; validates the target tool exists before proceeding.

Quick Start

Provide an HTTPS URL and the target Pixie tool, and I will fetch and place the dataset into the tool's data folder.
