space-doctor

space-doctor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from huggingface/hf-mcp-server. It costs 78 tokens per session (1,574 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A debugging workflow for broken Hugging Face Spaces, which are hosted machine-learning demos and applications. It reads the Space's logs and pinned source code, then prepares complete candidate files for a narrow fix without changing the hosted project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate build or runtime failures, including Gradio and ZeroGPU problems, and prepare a verified patch for a pull request.
Why use it?
It bases a repair on the actual failure and source rather than generic rewrite patterns, while keeping the proposed change separate for review.

About the project

Hugging Face MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that connects language models and coding agents to the Hugging Face Hub and Gradio applications. Users install it in supported agent environments to access configured Hugging Face tools and Spaces. The catalogue instruction describes how to use this server.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

space-doctor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Space Doctor

Diagnose a broken Hugging Face Space and, when a narrow reversible source fix is appropriate, write the complete fixed files into the candidate directory you were given. You have no Hub write access: never attempt an upload, PR, restart, or any other mutation. The parent process opens a PR from your candidate files and performs any restart itself.

Use fast-agent for reasoning and Hub reads. Diagnose from the observed failure, actual Hub logs, and the pinned source; static patterns and generic automated rewrites are not a repair decision.

Scheduled contract

A scheduled request provides the Space ID, exact failing revision, run ID, observed status/stage/detail, previous restart outcome for that revision (when one exists), and a workspace containing a candidate/ directory. Treat the restart outcome as evidence, not proof that the current failure has the same cause. Emit exactly one final structured result matching the configured JSON schema, only after all work is complete:

  • status: "fix-proposed" with changed_files, fix_summary, and pr_title when you have written complete fixed files (paths relative to the Space repository root) into candidate/.
  • status: "needs-human" with needs_human_reason otherwise.

Diagnose exactly the requested revision. If the Space has moved to a different revision, report needs-human with reason revision-changed. Never place credentials, tokens, or local filesystem paths in any output field.

Workflow

1. Inspect remote state

Prefer connected Hugging Face MCP tools. With the hf CLI:

hf spaces info <namespace/name> --expand runtime --format json
hf spaces logs <namespace/name> --tail 300
hf spaces logs <namespace/name> --build --tail 300   # for BUILD_ERROR

Record runtime stage, hardware, revision, runtime.raw.errorMessage, and the first actionable error. Read both build and runtime logs when relevant and compare them with the observed status/stage/detail supplied in the request. Always use the full 40-character repository SHA. Do not treat RUNNING alone as healthy.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
