Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install hugging-face-model-downloads

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent redirects the HF_HOME cache to a dedicated disk, applies the two-stage staging pattern and sets up authentication for gated repos. It checks the size before downloading. You get complete models without disk-space or access errors.
