hf find brings semantic Hub search to coding agents

vanstriendaniel · x · 2026-07-20

`hf find` adds semantic search for a coding agent over the Hugging Face Hub. - Agents can search 1.17M model and dataset cards by meaning, not just keywords. - Example use case: ask for recent video-game-play datasets, then have the agent curate a collection with short descriptions. - The extension detects when an agent is driving and switches output format accordingly: TSV with stderr hints for interactive use, JSON for scripts. - Every result includes the next command to run, so the agent can chain search → similar results → card lookup on its own. - The index refreshes daily via a scheduled HF job for about $0.05/day. Install: `hf extensions install davanstrien/hf-find`.
