What problem does it solve?
Data scientists and ML engineers waste time switching between the Hugging Face web dashboard and their local terminal to manage models, datasets, and deployment infrastructure, slowing down iteration and MLOps workflows.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Repository Management: Create, duplicate, move, and delete model, dataset, and Space repositories directly from the terminal, no web UI required.
- Asset Operations: Search, download, upload, and run SQL queries against dataset parquet files, plus manage model metadata and files.
- Infrastructure & Collaboration: Deploy and scale inference endpoints, manage Spaces, handle discussions and pull requests, and automate workflows with webhooks.
- Use Case: A data scientist can use this skill to download a public sentiment analysis model, upload a fine-tuned version to their private repository, and deploy a test inference endpoint, all without leaving their terminal.
Quick Start
Use the huggingface-hub skill to download the 'distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english' sentiment analysis model and list all files in its repository.
