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.

Documentation
README · ~4 min readHuggingFace Best Model Finder
Finds the best models for a task by querying official HF benchmark leaderboards, enriching results with model size data, filtering for what fits on the user's device, and returning a comparison table with benchmark scores.
Step 1: Parse the request
Extract from the user's message:
- Task: what they want the model to do (coding, math/reasoning, chat, OCR, RAG/retrieval, speech recognition, image classification, multimodal, agents, etc.)
- Device: hardware constraints (MacBook M-series 8/16/32/64GB unified memory, RTX GPU with VRAM amount, CPU-only, cloud/no constraint, etc.)
If device is not mentioned, skip filtering entirely and return the highest-performing models regardless of size. If the task is genuinely ambiguous, ask one clarifying question.
