What it does

Gives you near-real-time alerts the moment a specific lab, company, or author you follow on Hugging Face drops a new dataset. Rather than polling, it listens for a Hub webhook, confirms the release fits your research domain, and immediately notifies your team channel and the analyst who owns that author so nobody learns about a key release late.

When to use it

Use it when a handful of high-signal sources (a named research lab, a frontier-model org) matter enough that you want push notifications the instant they publish, not a next-morning digest.

How it works

  1. 1A Hugging Face Hub webhook fires on a dataset event from a watched author.
  2. 2A logic step confirms the event is a new dataset and matches your domain tags, discarding edits and off-topic releases.
  3. 3An action reads the dataset card for a one-line summary and modality.
  4. 4The output posts an instant alert to a Discord channel.
  5. 5A second output sends a Slack direct message to the analyst who owns that author.
