What it does

Detects when a previously open HuggingFace model becomes gated (requires accepting terms or requesting access). A gating flip silently breaks CI and inference the moment your cached weights expire, so this agent surfaces it as an actionable GitLab issue the instant it happens.

When to use it

Use it if your pipelines download model weights at build or deploy time and a sudden access wall would cause outages. Best for platform teams who would rather get a tracked issue today than a failed deploy at 2am.

How it works

  1. 1An hourly schedule triggers the check.
  2. 2Query each pinned model's repo settings on HuggingFace for its `gated` status.
  3. 3Branch: if a model that was open is now gated (or its gate type changed), continue; otherwise exit quietly.
  4. 4Build an issue body listing the affected model, its new gate type, and the dependent services.
  5. 5Open a GitLab issue tagged `severity::high` and `model-access`, assigned to the platform on-call.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect Hugging FaceModels, datasets, spaces — the open-source hub.
  2. 2
    Connect GitLabRepos, MRs, pipelines, registry.
  3. 3
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  4. 4
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  5. 5
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
