## What it does

The skill inspects a target LoRA repository on Hugging Face Hub for diffusion models such as FLUX, SDXL, Wan, or LTX-Video. It reads the model card to detect the base architecture, trigger words, recommended step counts, and LoRA guidance parameters.

It writes `app.py`, `requirements.txt`, and `README.md` together, presenting all three files for a single batched approval. The Gradio layout adapts to the specific use case, whether handling text-to-image prompts, video generation, or side-by-side editing comparisons.

A Hugging Face write token is mandatory for deployment and reading gated checkpoints; without it, Space publication stops. The resulting demo runs on ZeroGPU infrastructure and defaults to private visibility.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add huggingface/skills --skill huggingface-lora-space-builder -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add huggingface/skills --skill huggingface-lora-space-builder -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add huggingface/skills --skill huggingface-lora-space-builder -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install huggingface/skills huggingface-lora-space-builder
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add huggingface/skills --skill huggingface-lora-space-builder -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/huggingface/skills --path skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add huggingface/skills --skill huggingface-lora-space-builder -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/huggingface/skills/tree/HEAD/skills/huggingface-lora-space-builder/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- Generate a customized Gradio app for a Hugging Face LoRA repository
- Configure diffusers inference scripts using model card trigger words and scale
- Deploy private demos to Hugging Face Spaces on ZeroGPU hardware
- Produce app.py, requirements.txt, and metadata files in a single pass

## Example prompts
- Create a private Gradio Space for the LoRA at username/my-flux-lora
- Ship a ZeroGPU playground for my LTX-Video LoRA checkpoint
- Build a Space demo for username/sdxl-character LoRA using diffusers

description: Build and publish a Gradio demo on Hugging Face Spaces for a user-provided LoRA. Use when someone asks to create, generate, ship, or publish a Space, demo, Gradio app, or playground for a LoRA — including LoRAs for Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, LTX-Video, Wan, FLUX, SDXL, or other diffusion base models. Also triggers when someone describes a LoRA they trained or hosts on the Hub and wants to share it. Covers picking the right base pipeline and `diffusers` inference recipe, designing a UI tailored to the LoRA's task and inputs (Union/multi-task control, edit, video, image, etc.), respecting model-card recommendations (trigger words, steps, guidance, LoRA scale, example inputs), and shipping to ZeroGPU hardware as a private Space by default.

# Gradio LoRA Space Builder

Build and publish a Gradio demo on Hugging Face Spaces that runs inference with a user-provided LoRA. Use whenever someone asks to create, generate, ship, or publish "a Space", "a demo", "a Gradio app", or "a playground" for a LoRA — whether the base model is Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, LTX, or another diffusion model. Also use when someone describes a LoRA they trained or hosts on the Hub and wants to share it. The default target is ZeroGPU hardware and the default inference library is `diffusers` when the base model supports it.

The output is a real, published Space (private by default) that the user can try in the browser, not a local script.

## What "good" looks like for these demos

The demo should feel handcrafted for this specific LoRA, not a generic template with the LoRA bolted on. Two LoRAs that share a task can still need different demos: a pose-control video LoRA and an outpainting video LoRA both take video in and produce video out, but the inputs the user provides, the preprocessing, and the controls are completely different. Recognizing that is the central job here.

Concretely, a good demo:

- Loads fast and runs fast — minimal model loading, sensible step count, no wasted computation per call.
- Has a UI with exactly the controls this LoRA needs and nothing else. Excess sliders are a cost, not a feature.
- Shows the user what's happening — progress, intermediate outputs where useful, the seed used, a clear error when input is missing.
- Honors the LoRA's own recommendations from its model card: trigger words, recommended step count, recommended guidance scale, recommended LoRA scale, example inputs.
- Is creative where creativity helps — interactive canvases, before/after sliders, side-by-side previews of intermediate processing — and plain where plainness is right.
