How do I access private Hugging Face repositories?

You can access private resources by passing your HF_TOKEN through the secrets parameter in the hf_jobs or repo detail tools.

Can I run training scripts on a GPU using this skill?

Yes, the hf_jobs operation allows you to execute Python scripts or Docker images on various cloud GPU flavors like T4-small and A10G.

How do I find the most popular models for a specific task?

Use the model_search tool with the 'sort' parameter set to 'trendingScore' or 'downloads' to identify the best community-validated models.

Does this skill support searching for datasets?

Yes, you can use the dataset_search tool to find data by query, language tags, or task categories and retrieve their metadata.

Can I use Gradio apps as functional tools within Claude?

Absolutely. Use the space_search tool with mcp=true to find compatible Gradio Spaces and invoke them using the dynamic_space tool.
