How to use it:

When Hugging Face Jobs are running, use `hf jobs stats` to display their CPU, memory, network, and available GPU usage.

Examples:

```
hf jobs stats
```

```
hf jobs stats <job_id>
```

- why_it_matters: Monitor resource usage for running Hub jobs during a development run.
- sources: <https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/releases/tag/v1.3.0>, <https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/jobs-manage>, <https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/en/package_reference/cli>
- gotchas: "Version: v1.3.0"; "[JOB_IDS]...: Job IDs (or `namespace/job_id`) to limit the displayed statistics to specified Jobs."; "--namespace TEXT: Namespace where the Job is running; defaults to the current user’s namespace."; "--token TEXT: User Access Token."

## hf models, datasets, and spaces discovery commands (hf, 2026-01-08)
Published 2026-10-19
- slug: hf-models-datasets-and-spaces-discovery-commands-59ef2a0a8201
- score: 0.96

How to use it:

When inspecting Hub repositories from the CLI, use `hf models`, `hf datasets`, or `hf spaces` with `ls` to discover entries and `info <ID>` to inspect one; use `hf repo` for repository management.

Examples:

```
hf models ls --author=Qwen --limit=10
hf models info Qwen/Qwen-Image-2512
```

```
hf datasets ls --filter "format:parquet" --sort=downloads
hf datasets info HuggingFaceFW/fineweb
```

```
hf spaces ls --search "3d"
hf spaces info enzostvs/deepsite
```

- why_it_matters: Inspect Hub models, datasets, or Spaces from the CLI while working on a repository.

- slug: hf-jobs-ps-filters-by-labels-and-negated-conditions-5978bc41462c
- score: 0.92

How to use it:

When reviewing Hub Jobs, use `hf jobs ps -a` with repeated `--filter` options to match status, command, or labels; use `!=` to exclude matches.

Examples:

```
hf jobs ps -a --filter status!=error
```

```
hf jobs ps -a --filter "command!=*train.py"
```

```
hf jobs ps -a --filter label=model=Qwen3-06B --filter label=dataset!=Capybara
```

- why_it_matters: When reviewing Hub Jobs used to run repository workflows, filter the job listing by status, command, or labels.
- before: The release note documents status and command filters using `=` before this change; label filtering and `!=` are the additions.

- score: 0.95

How to use it:

When running multi-GPU training or passing a local config file through Hub Jobs, use `hf jobs uv run` with a supported distributed runner or put the config after the script as a script argument.

Examples:

```
hf jobs uv run --with torch -- torchrun <script.py>
```

```
hf jobs uv run --with accelerate -- accelerate launch <script.py>
```

```
hf jobs uv run [--with <package>] <script.py> <config-file>
```

- why_it_matters: When developing or testing multi-GPU training code through Hub Jobs, launch it with a supported distributed runner and pass a local config file alongside the script.

- slug: hf-models-datasets-spaces-endpoints-and-cache-ls-add-format-options-a9ae5fae5e1f
- score: 0.96

How to use it:

When a repository maintenance script consumes one of the supported `ls` listings, select JSON with `--format json` or print IDs only with `--quiet` (`-q`).

Examples:

```
hf models ls --format json
```

```
hf datasets ls --quiet
```

```
hf cache ls --format json
```

- why_it_matters: When consuming CLI listings in repository maintenance scripts, request JSON or ID-only output from a supported listing command.

## hf skills add installs the hf-cli coding skill (hf, 2026-02-03)
Published 2026-10-19
- slug: hf-skills-add-installs-the-hf-cli-coding-skill-55a5199d3f93
- score: 0.95

How to use it:

When a repository uses Hugging Face CLI workflows with Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode, run `hf skills add` with the matching assistant flag. Add `--global` for a user-level install or use `--dest <PATH>` for a custom skills directory.

Examples:

```
hf skills add --claude
```

```
hf skills add --claude --global
```

```
hf skills add --codex --opencode
```

- why_it_matters: When working with Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode on a repository that uses Hugging Face CLI workflows, install the hf-cli skill for the assistant.
