# Hugging Face Dataset Viewer ## When to Use Use this skill when you need read-only exploration of a Hugging Face dataset through the Dataset Viewer API. Use this skill to execute read-only Dataset Viewer API calls for dataset exploration and extraction. ## Core workflow 1. Optionally validate dataset availability with `/is-valid`. 2. Resolve `config` + `split` with `/splits`. 3. Preview with `/first-rows`. 4. Paginate content with `/rows` using `offset` and `length` (max 100). 5. Use `/search` for text matching and `/filter` for row predicates. 6. Retrieve parquet links via `/parquet` and totals/metadata via `/size` and `/statistics`. ## Defaults - Base URL: `https://datasets-server.huggingface.co` - Default API method: `GET` - Query params should be URL-encoded. - `offset` is 0-based. - `length` max is usually `100` for row-like endpoints. - Gated/private datasets require `Authorization: Bearer <HF_TOKEN>`. ## Dataset Viewer - `Validate dataset`: `/is-valid?dataset=<namespace/repo>` - `List subsets and splits`: `/splits?dataset=<namespace/repo>` - `Preview first rows`: `/first-rows?dataset=<namespace/repo>&config=<config>&split=<split>` - `Paginate rows`: `/rows?dataset=<namespace/repo>&config=<config>&split=<split>&offset=<int>&length=<int>` - `Search text`: `/search?dataset=<namespace/repo>&config=<config>&split=<split>&query=<text>&offset=<int>&length=<int>` - `Filter with predicates`: `/filter?dataset=<namespace/repo>&config=<config>...
