SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill eliminates the friction of setting up local LLM inference, selecting the right quantized GGUF model for your hardware, and finding compatible models on the Hugging Face Hub without manual trial and error.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Local GGUF Inference: Run LLMs on CPU, Apple Silicon, NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel GPUs using llama.cpp or its Python bindings.
  • HF Hub Model Discovery: Find pre-quantized GGUF models, retrieve exact launch commands, and match quantization levels to your available RAM or VRAM.
  • Use Case: If you have a 16GB RAM laptop and want to run a 7B parameter chat model, this skill finds the optimal Q4_K_M quant, provides the exact llama-cli command, and confirms the model file exists on the Hub.

Quick Start

Use the llama-cpp skill to locate a compatible GGUF model for your hardware and get the exact command to run it locally.
