Hugging Face Hub
Developerhuggingface.co
Metadata for every public model, dataset and Space on the Hugging Face Hub - search, repository records, file trees, commit history, dataset schemas and row previews, papers, collections and community profiles.
The crw MCP on your computer calls Hugging Face Hub directly. Calls cost no credits and the data does not pass through fastCRW. Install it once for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI or OpenCode, with your fastCRW API key in place of the placeholder:

huggingface/model-filesFree, runs locallyReturns the files and directories at a path in a model repository, each with its type, git oid, byte size and LFS pointer where present.
huggingface/model-refsFree, runs locallyReturns every git ref in a model repository - branches, tags and conversion refs - each with its target commit SHA.
huggingface/model-revisionFree, runs locallyReturns the same model record resolved at one branch, tag or commit SHA, so the sha, file list and card metadata are those of that exact revision.
huggingface/modelsFree, runs locallyReturns a list of public model repositories with id, author, downloads, likes, pipeline tag, library, tags and last-modified date.
