Hugging Face API Tool Builder

Overview

This public intake copy packages

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/hugging-face-tool-builder

https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Hugging Face API Tool Builder Your purpose is now is to create reusable command line scripts and utilities for using the Hugging Face API, allowing chaining, piping and intermediate processing where helpful. You can access the API directly, as well as use the hf command line tool. Model and Dataset cards can be accessed from repositories directly.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Sample Scripts, High Level Endpoints, Accessing the API, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• You need reusable CLI scripts around the Hugging Face API or hf command line tool.
• You want shell-friendly utilities that support chaining, piping, and intermediate processing.
• You are automating repeated Hub tasks and need a composable interface instead of ad hoc API calls.
• Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Your purpose is now is to create reusable command line scripts and utilities for using the Hugging Face API, allowing chaining, piping and intermediate processing where helpful. You can access the API directly, as well....
• Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Confirm the user goal, the scope of the imported workflow, and whether this skill is still the right router for the task.
2. Read the overview and provenance files before loading any copied upstream support files.
3. Load only the references, examples, prompts, or scripts that materially change the outcome for the current request.
4. Execute the upstream workflow while keeping provenance and source boundaries explicit in the working notes.
5. Validate the result against the upstream expectations and the evidence you can point to in the copied files.
6. Escalate or hand off to a related skill when the work moves out of this imported workflow's center of gravity.
7. Before merge or closure, record what was used, what changed, and what the reviewer still needs to verify.

Imported Workflow Notes

Imported: Sample Scripts

Paths below are relative to this skill directory.

Reference examples:

• references/hf_model_papers_auth.sh

  — uses

  HF_TOKEN

  automatically and chains trending → model metadata → model card parsing with fallbacks; it demonstrates multi-step API usage plus auth hygiene for gated/private content.

• references/find_models_by_paper.sh

  — optional

  HF_TOKEN

  usage via

  --token

  , consistent authenticated search, and a retry path when arXiv-prefixed searches are too narrow; it shows resilient query strategy and clear user-facing help.

• references/hf_model_card_frontmatter.sh

  — uses the

  hf

  CLI to download model cards, extracts YAML frontmatter, and emits NDJSON summaries (license, pipeline tag, tags, gated prompt flag) for easy filtering.

Baseline examples (ultra-simple, minimal logic, raw JSON output with

HF_TOKEN

• references/baseline_hf_api.sh

  — bash

• references/baseline_hf_api.py

  — python

• references/baseline_hf_api.tsx

  — typescript executable

Composable utility (stdin → NDJSON):

• references/hf_enrich_models.sh

  — reads model IDs from stdin, fetches metadata per ID, emits one JSON object per line for streaming pipelines.

Composability through piping (shell-friendly JSON output):

• references/baseline_hf_api.sh 25 | jq -r '.[].id' | references/hf_enrich_models.sh | jq -s 'sort_by(.downloads) | reverse | .[:10]'

• references/baseline_hf_api.sh 50 | jq '[.[] | {id, downloads}] | sort_by(.downloads) | reverse | .[:10]'

• printf '%s\n' openai/gpt-oss-120b meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B | references/hf_model_card_frontmatter.sh | jq -s 'map({id, license, has_extra_gated_prompt})'

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @hugging-face-tool-builder-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @hugging-face-tool-builder-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @hugging-face-tool-builder-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @hugging-face-tool-builder-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Scripts must take a --help command line argument to describe their inputs and outputs
• Non-destructive scripts should be tested before handing over to the User
• Shell scripts are preferred, but use Python or TSX if complexity or user need requires it.
• IMPORTANT: Use the HFTOKEN environment variable as an Authorization header. For example: curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${HFTOKEN}" https://huggingface.co/api/. This provides higher rate limits and appropriate authorization for data access.
• Investigate the shape of the API results before commiting to a final design; make use of piping and chaining where composability would be an advantage - prefer simple solutions where possible.
• Share usage examples once complete.
• Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.

Imported Operating Notes

Imported: Script Rules

Make sure to follow these rules:

• Scripts must take a

  --help

  command line argument to describe their inputs and outputs
• Non-destructive scripts should be tested before handing over to the User
• Shell scripts are preferred, but use Python or TSX if complexity or user need requires it.
• IMPORTANT: Use the

  HF_TOKEN

  environment variable as an Authorization header. For example:

  curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${HF_TOKEN}" https://huggingface.co/api/

  . This provides higher rate limits and appropriate authorization for data access.

• Share usage examples once complete.

Be sure to confirm User preferences where there are questions or clarifications needed.

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/hugging-face-tool-builder

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated

SKILL.md

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported Reference Notes

Imported: High Level Endpoints

The following are the main API endpoints available at

https://huggingface.co

/api/datasets
/api/models
/api/spaces
/api/collections
/api/daily_papers
/api/notifications
/api/settings
/api/whoami-v2
/api/trending
/oauth/userinfo

Imported: Accessing the API

The API is documented with the OpenAPI standard at

https://huggingface.co/.well-known/openapi.json

IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT to read

https://huggingface.co/.well-known/openapi.json

IMPORTANT Use

jq

Command to Get All 160 Endpoints

curl -s "https://huggingface.co/.well-known/openapi.json" | jq '.paths | keys | sort'

Model Search Endpoint Details

curl -s "https://huggingface.co/.well-known/openapi.json" | jq '.paths["/api/models"]'

You can also query endpoints to see the shape of the data. When doing so constrain results to low numbers to make them easy to process, yet representative.

Imported: Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
