Prompting techniques for AI image generation and editing models on Replicate. Use when writing prompts for image models or building image generation features.
High-level map of the Venice.ai API - base URL, authentication modes, endpoint categories, response headers, pricing model, error shape, and versioning. Load this first when starting any Venice integration.
Discover Venice models, their capabilities, constraints, and pricing. Covers GET /models (with ?type filter), /models/traits, /models/compatibility_mapping, the ModelResponse schema (capabilities, constraints, pricing per type), and how to use this to pick the right model programmatically.
Async music / audio-track generation via Venice. Covers the /audio/quote + /audio/queue + /audio/retrieve + /audio/complete lifecycle, lyrics vs instrumental, voice selection, duration, language, speed, model capability probing, and webhook-free polling.
Reference for Netlify AI Gateway — the managed proxy that routes calls to OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini SDKs without provider API keys. Use this skill any time the user wants to add AI on a Netlify site (chat, completion, reasoning, image generation, image-to-image edit/stylize), choose or change a model, wire up the OpenAI / Anthropic / @google/genai SDK, decide which provider to use for an image-gen feature (it's Gemini-only on the gateway), or debug "model not found" / "API key missing" against the gateway. Required reading before pinning a model — the gateway exposes a curated subset, not every provider model.
Build, deploy, and maintain applications on Hugging Face Spaces — Gradio / Docker / Static SDKs, ZeroGPU and dedicated hardware, model loading, debugging, buckets, inference providers, community grants. Use whenever the user asks to create or host an app on Hugging Face, port code onto ZeroGPU, fix a Space that won't build or run, or otherwise work with `hf spaces …`, `@spaces.GPU`, Space README frontmatter, or the `spaces` Python package.
Hugging Face CLI to estimate the required memory to load Safetensors or GGUF model weights for inference from the Hugging Face Hub
Use when the user asks about finding the best, top, or recommended model for a task, wants to know what AI model to use, or wants to compare models by benchmark scores. Triggers on: "best model for X", "what model should I use for", "top models for [task]", "which model runs on my laptop/machine/device", "recommend a model for", "what LLM should I use for", "compare models for", "what's state of the art for", or any question about choosing an AI model for a specific use case. Always use this skill when the user wants model recommendations or comparisons, even if they don't explicitly mention HuggingFace or benchmarks.
Run evaluations for Hugging Face Hub models using inspect-ai and lighteval on local hardware. Use for backend selection, local GPU evals, and choosing between vLLM / Transformers / accelerate. Not for HF Jobs orchestration, model-card PRs, .eval_results publication, or community-evals automation.
Train or fine-tune language and vision models using TRL (Transformer Reinforcement Learning) or Unsloth with Hugging Face Jobs infrastructure. Covers SFT, DPO, GRPO and reward modeling training methods, plus GGUF conversion for local deployment. Includes guidance on the TRL Jobs package, UV scripts with PEP 723 format, dataset preparation and validation, hardware selection, cost estimation, Trackio monitoring, Hub authentication, model selection/leaderboards and model persistence. Use for tasks involving cloud GPU training, GGUF conversion, or when users mention training on Hugging Face Jobs without local GPU setup.
Build and publish a Gradio demo on Hugging Face Spaces for a user-provided LoRA. Use when someone asks to create, generate, ship, or publish a Space, demo, Gradio app, or playground for a LoRA — including LoRAs for Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, LTX-Video, Wan, FLUX, SDXL, or other diffusion base models. Also triggers when someone describes a LoRA they trained or hosts on the Hub and wants to share it. Covers picking the right base pipeline and `diffusers` inference recipe, designing a UI tailored to the LoRA's task and inputs (Union/multi-task control, edit, video, image, etc.), respecting model-card recommendations (trigger words, steps, guidance, LoRA scale, example inputs), and shipping to ZeroGPU hardware as a private Space by default.
Package and build custom AI models with Cog for deployment on Replicate. Use when creating a cog.yaml or predict.py, defining model inputs and outputs, loading model weights at setup time, building Docker images for ML models, serving locally with cog serve or cog predict, or porting a HuggingFace, GitHub, or ComfyUI model to run on Replicate. Trigger on phrases like "build a model", "package a model", "create a Cog model", "wrap a model", "containerize an AI model", "predict.py", "cog.yaml", "BasePredictor", or "Cog container", and when referencing cog.run, github.com/replicate/cog, or github.com/replicate/cog-examples. Covers GPU and CUDA setup, pget for fast weight downloads, async predictors with continuous batching, streaming outputs, and cold-boot optimization for image, video, audio, and LLM models.
