transformers

transformers is a skill for Claude Code from Lzy599775/agent-auto-sci-skills. It costs 61 tokens per session (1,872 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of transformers, MIT.

A guide to the Hugging Face Transformers library, which provides ready-made machine-learning models for text, images, audio, and combined media. It covers loading models, running predictions, and training models further.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working with Transformers models, pipelines, tokenizers, training settings, or the Hugging Face Hub.
Why use it?
It gives developers a documented path through model installation, authentication, inference, and fine-tuning instead of requiring them to assemble those steps from scratch.

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

transformers 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 yesterday.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

91% identical to transformers — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Transformers

Overview

The Hugging Face Transformers library provides access to thousands of pre-trained models for tasks across NLP, computer vision, audio, and multimodal domains. Use this skill to load models, perform inference, and fine-tune on custom data.

Installation

Tested against transformers 5.12.0 (current PyPI release; June 2026). Requires Python 3.10+; the torch extra currently requires PyTorch 2.4+.

uv pip install "transformers[torch]==5.12.0" huggingface_hub==1.19.0 datasets==5.0.0 evaluate==0.4.6 accelerate==1.14.0

For vision tasks, add:

uv pip install timm==1.0.27 pillow==12.2.0

For audio tasks, add:

uv pip install librosa==0.11.0 soundfile==0.14.0

These pins are for reproducible examples. For exploratory work, loosen them only after checking the Transformers and Hub release notes for API changes.

Check your version:

import transformers
print(transformers.__version__)

Authentication

Many models on the Hugging Face Hub are gated or private. Authenticate before loading them.

Recommended: CLI login (stores token in ~/.cache/huggingface/token):

hf auth login

Python:

from huggingface_hub import login
login()  # Interactive prompt; do not hardcode tokens in scripts

Servers / CI: set HF_TOKEN in the environment (never commit tokens to git or shell profiles):

export HF_TOKEN="..."  # Read token from a secret manager, not source code

Get tokens at: https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens

Security: Never paste tokens into notebooks, repos, or shared configs. Prefer hf auth login over exporting tokens in .bashrc or .zshrc.

Use the narrowest token scope that works: read for private or gated model downloads, write only for uploads. If a long-running environment should not send the stored token on every Hub request, set HF_HUB_DISABLE_IMPLICIT_TOKEN=1 and pass a token only where authentication is required.

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.
