What it does

Huggingface is an agent skill from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors. Verify your Hugging Face account and search the model hub. Read-only. Trigger phrases: hugging face, huggingface, hf model, search models.

Its SKILL.md is about 430 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `bin/huggingface.py`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Model hubs and datasets. It works with Hugging Face. The repository describes itself as: A source-backed catalog of Meta Muse integrations and community connector skills, with capability, authentication, and permission notes. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Phrases: hugging face
  • Tasks that involve Model hubs and datasets

Example prompts

  • “/huggingface”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. This skill is read-only. No repository creation, upload, or delete commands ship.
  2. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/huggingface.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d6dc5d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Huggingface loads about 431 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 139 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~431

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Hugging Face

Purpose

Verify the user's Hugging Face account and search the public model hub: whoami (name, email), and model search by keyword with likes/downloads. Read-only: no repo writes ship in this skill.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/huggingface.py:

bash
bin/huggingface.py me                        # whoami: name, email, account type
bin/huggingface.py models --query llama      # search the model hub (id, likes, downloads), 10 results

Auth

  • Provider id: huggingface (credential is collected as custom.huggingface)
  • Collection: user access token via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access): create one at huggingface.co/settings/tokens (a fine-grained read token is enough)
  • Connect placement: bearer_header
  • Allowed hosts: huggingface.co
  • Status check: bin/huggingface.py me (a successful whoami proves the token works)

Operating Rules

  1. This skill is read-only. No repository creation, upload, or delete commands ship.
  2. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/huggingface.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.
