# llama.cpp + GGUF
Use this skill for local GGUF inference, quant selection, or Hugging Face repo discovery for llama.cpp.
## When to use
- Run local models on CPU, Apple Silicon, CUDA, ROCm, or Intel GPUs
- Find the right GGUF for a specific Hugging Face repo
- Build a `llama-server` or `llama-cli` command from the Hub
- Search the Hub for models that already support llama.cpp
- Enumerate available `.gguf` files and sizes for a repo
- Decide between Q4/Q5/Q6/IQ variants for the user's RAM or VRAM
## Model Discovery workflow
Prefer URL workflows before asking for `hf`, Python, or custom scripts.
1. Search for candidate repos on the Hub:
- Base: `https://huggingface.co/models?apps=llama.cpp&sort=trending`
- Add `search=<term>` for a model family
- Add `num_parameters=min:0,max:24B` or similar when the user has size constraints
2. Open the repo with the llama.cpp local-app view:
- `https://huggingface.co/<repo>?local-app=llama.cpp`
3. Treat the local-app snippet as the source of truth when it is visible:
- copy the exact `llama-server` or `llama-cli` command
- report the recommended quant exactly as HF shows it
4. Read the same `?local-app=llama.cpp` URL as page text or HTML and extract the section under `Hardware compatibility`:
- prefer its exact quant labels and sizes over generic tables
- keep repo-specific labels such as `UD-Q4_K_M` or `IQ4_NL_XL`
- if that section is not visible in the fetched page source, say so and fall back to the tree
