Use this skill when the user asks to interact with the Hugging Face Hub via the `hf` CLI. Triggers on: any mention of `hf` command, "huggingface CLI", "hf cli", "huggingface-cli" (deprecated alias), uploading or downloading models/datasets, listing/searching models or datasets on the Hub, managing HF Spaces, running HF Jobs (compute), managing HF tokens / auth, pushing a checkpoint to HF, pulling a dataset from HF, creating a new repo on the Hub, setting up HF cache, or any task involving HF repos, branches, or LFS. Also use when the user wants to install or update the agent skill for the `hf` CLI itself (`hf skills add`). Prefer this skill over guessing command syntax — the official CLI has the canonical reference.
