# Install the Hugging Bay catalog skill

The live skill document is served at `https://huggingbay.xyz/skills/hugging-bay/SKILL.md`. Review that file before installing. Pin its SHA-256 when your client supports integrity checks.

## Claude Code (skills directory)

```sh
mkdir -p "$HOME/.claude/skills/hugging-bay"
curl -fsS https://huggingbay.xyz/skills/hugging-bay/SKILL.md -o "$HOME/.claude/skills/hugging-bay/SKILL.md"
```

Invoke with `/hugging-bay` after MCP is connected. See [Claude Code skills](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/skills).

Alternatively copy `claude-skill.md` from this pack after review.

## Cursor (project rules)

Copy `cursor-rule.md` into `.cursor/rules/hugging-bay.md` in your project (or merge into your existing rules). Cursor loads rules from `.cursor/rules/` automatically.

## Codex (AGENTS.md)

Append the contents of `codex-agents.md` to your repository `AGENTS.md`, or paste the snippet into the Codex project instructions.

## MCP still required

The skill describes catalog reads and download checks. Connect hosted MCP at `https://huggingbay.xyz/api/mcp` using your client's setup flow (`/connect` on Hugging Bay lists per-client commands).

## HF mirror and Ollama (optional)

- Hugging Face clients: `HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf.huggingbay.xyz`
- Ollama: `ollama pull huggingbay.xyz/qwen/qwen2.5-0.5b-instruct:q4_k_m`
