๐Ÿค” Do you have a Hugging Face Space that you wish you could programmatically restart to induce data refresh or some other behavior?

๐Ÿ‘‰ Try Spaces Scheduler for this use case: https://github.com/kghamilton89/spaces-scheduler

โžก๏ธ Lightweight
โžก๏ธ Easy to setup
โžก๏ธ Just works

๐Ÿ˜Ž Happy to share some tooling with the Hugging Face community that's given me so much.

Genuine recommendation: You should really use this AutoHotKey macro. Save the file as macros.ahk and run it. Before sending a prompt to your coding agent, press Ctrl + Alt + 1 and paste your prompt to any regular chatbot. Then send the output to the agent. This is the actual, boring, real way to "10x your prompting". Use the other number keys to avoid repeating yourself over and over again. I use this macro prolly 100-200 times per day. AutoHotKey isn't as new or hype as a lot of other workflows, but there's a reason it's still widely used after 17 years. Don't overcomplicate it.

; Requires AutoHotkey v1.1+

; All macros are `Ctrl + Alt + <variable>`

^!1::
    Send, Please help me more clearly articulate what I mean with this message (write the message in a code block):
return

^!2::
    Send, Please make the following changes:
return

^!3::
    Send, It seems you got cut off by the maximum response limit. Please continue by picking up where you left off.
return


In my experience the past few months, Ctrl + Alt + 1 works best with Instruct models (non-thinking). Reasoning causes some models to ramble and miss the point. I've just been using GPT-5.x for this.

๐Ÿšจ New tool for the Nymbo/Tools MCP server: The new Agent_Skills tool provides full support for Agent Skills (Claude Skills but open-source).

How it works: The tool exposes the standard discover/info/resources/validate actions. Skills live in /Skills under the same File_System root, and any bundled scripts run through Shell_Command, no new infrastructure required.

Agent_Skills(action="discover")  # List all available skills
Agent_Skills(action="info", skill_name="music-downloader")  # Full SKILL.md
Agent_Skills(action="resources", skill_name="music-downloader")  # Scripts, refs, assets


I've included a music-downloader skill as a working demo, it wraps yt-dlp for YouTube/SoundCloud audio extraction.

Caveat: On HF Spaces, Shell_Command works for most tasks, but some operations (like YouTube downloads) are restricted due to the container environment. For full functionality, run the server locally on your machine.

Try it out ~ https://www.nymbo.net/nymbot

๐Ÿ“ One of the coolest parts about being an early Strawberry user has been the opportunity to build on the app at the ground floor.

The platform already has a ton of great integrations that let you interact with your external apps directly with tools, but I wanted to add the ability to do stuff in Slack as well.

๐Ÿ’ช So I took the base Anthropic Slack MCP server, added a whole bunch of new tools, and generalized it as an HTTP-based SSE-server and deployed it in like 2 minutes with Railway so that Strawberry could make use of it (as can Claude or any other MCP client).

Now, you can Chat with your Strawberry Companion (or Claude, or whatever) and do things like:
โžก๏ธ Get caught up across all of your Slack channels after a long weekend or noisy incident without having to read 20 threads in 10 different channels
โžก๏ธ Create, read, and edit Canvases, Messages, and Channels
โžก๏ธ Take any resources or content that you're using in your Chat and inject it directly into Slack without copy / paste

๐Ÿ˜Ž I'm pretty pleased with the results, and I made a short demo video showing the results of the work (link in comments). The best part is, it's available on GitHub for anyone else to use too (link in the comments, instructions in the README). The setup takes about 5-10 minutes.

What a trip. Just walked through @burtenshaw and @evalstate tutorial on adding Hugging Face Skills to your Claude Code agent so you can fine tune LLMs by chatting with AI.

These are the kinds of innovations that are going to help everyone benefit from the power of Artificial Intelligence. Well done gentlemen and thank you for sharing.

๐Ÿ˜ I keep seeing takes on LinkedIn from American business influencers melting down about Silicon Valley startup "dependence" on open-source Chinese models.

๐Ÿค” Can anyone describe a credible scenario where these models can be leveraged by the Chinese government to endanger American security interests or am I right to believe that this is just Red Scare nonsense?

๐Ÿš€ I've just shipped a major update to the Nymbo/Tools MCP server: the Agent_Terminal, a single "master tool" that cuts token usage by over 90%!

Anthropic found 98.7% context savings using code execution with MCP, Cloudflare published similar findings. This is my open-source implementation of the same idea.

# The Problem

Traditional MCP exposes every tool definition directly to the model. With 12 tools, that's thousands of tokens consumed *before the conversation even starts*. Each tool call also passes intermediate results through the context window โ€” a 10,000-row spreadsheet? That's all going into context just to sum a column.

# The Solution: One Tool to Rule Them All

Agent_Terminal wraps all 12 tools (Web_Search, Web_Fetch, File_System, Generate_Image, Generate_Speech, Generate_Video, Deep_Research, Memory_Manager, Obsidian_Vault, Shell_Command, Code_Interpreter) into a single Python code execution gateway.

Instead of the model making individual tool calls, it writes Python code that orchestrates the tools directly:

# Search for Bitcoin price
result = Web_Search("current price of bitcoin", max_results=3)
print(result)


Don't know what tools are available? The agent can discover them at runtime:

print(search_tools('image'))  # Find tools by keyword
print(usage('Generate_Image'))  # Get full docs for a specific tool


The individual direct tool calls are all still there, but they can be disabled if using the Agent_Terminal. Try it now - https://www.nymbo.net/nymbot

๐ŸŽ‰ Novoyaz is live.

A few months ago, I built a quick POC in Hugging Face that used a fine-tuned variant of OpenAI's OSS-20B model that I trained to convert the text from pre-reform Russian-language documents into modern Russian orthography.

โšก๏ธ This morning, I launched novoyaz.io.

This is a production app, the frontend for which I built in like two hours with Lovable, that uses that same fine-tuned model for transliteration, but now has a bunch of extra features that make using it even easier (like taking and uploading pictures with your on-device camera for example ๐Ÿ˜…).

๐Ÿ‘‰ If you're a researcher, or know a researcher, for whom this app will improve their day-to-day workflows, please get in touch with me.

I've added an 11th tool to the Nymbo/Tools MCP server, it's for your Obsidian_Vault. I'd argue it's far more context-efficient than any other Obsidian MCP I've seen, and doesn't require any plugins. Also some big improvements to the Web_Search and Web_Fetch tools.

# Obsidian_Vault Tool

It's basically a read-only version of the File_System tool, but it works so well for navigating Obsidian without unnecessary context. It supports recursive (full-text) search across the entire vault, and supports offset so the agent can "scroll" through a document without re-consuming tokens.

Run the server locally and set the OBSIDIAN_VAULT_ROOT environment variable to your vault's root path. If you don't use Obsidian, this is perfectly usable as simply a read-only filesystem.

# Web_Search Improvements

The Web_Search tool previously just used DuckDuckGo as a backend search engine, but now it also supports Bing, Brave, Yahoo, and Wikipedia. Default engine is auto which provides results from all backends in recommended order. Still doesn't require any kind of API or auth for Web_Search.

There's also a new date filter to limit results to those created in the past day, week, month, or year. Oh, and uhh, SafeSearch is now off by default :)

# Web_Fetch Improvements

As context-efficient as the Markdown mode is for web browsing, sometimes it does lose important context in the conversion from HTML to Markdown. So I've added a new HTML mode to the Web_Fetch tool that basically executes a cURL request on the URL, returning the full HTML page if necessary.

# A Note on Claude Skills

I've been having fun with the new File_System and Shell_Command tools. Using Claude Skills doesn't currently work in the public HF space because of environment restrictions, but using Skills works perfectly well running locally.

Happy building ~

Anyone got the scoop on a good OCR model that's available on inference?

Keen to make use of an endpoint (gated or not -- happy to pay for usage) for a personal project, but not so keen to pay for the GPU hosting myself.

Two new tools added to the Nymbo/Tools MCP server, File_System and Shell_Exec. You can theoretically do basically anything with these two tools, and it should enable support for many Claude Skills.

GPT-5-Codex proves that for many cases, shell commands really are all you need, and Claude Skills seem to lean into this. The thing is, nothing about the design of Claude Skills actually restricts them to proprietary models!

# File_System

There's a new directory inside the repo called Filesystem, that's the agent's "root". It can perform the following actions : list, read, write, append, mkdir, move, copy, delete, info, help. It's able to keep this all within the scope of one tool call by making the Action field required and all other fields optional. Using a filesystem shouldn't require 15 different tools.

Files created in the public HF space live in the space's running container, and gets cleared when the space is restarted. When running the server locally, files are actually stored on disk.

# Shell_Exec

What good is a filesystem if you can't execute commands in that filesystem? This tool automatically detects if the server is running on Windows or Linux, and suggests using the appropriate shell (PowerShell/Bash). Both of these new tools require that the agent uses relative paths, rather than absolute paths. I could be convinced to back pedal on this.

# Closing Thoughts

The File_System and Shell_Exec tools aren't super polished yet, I'll continue to improve the agent's instructions and UX of using the new tools. Most of my testing was done with gpt-oss-20b and if it messes up, it gets the gist after one failed tool call. It should work perfectly fine for the GPU poor.
