# Overview

This skill is for **running evaluations against models on the Hugging Face Hub on local hardware**.

It covers:
- `inspect-ai` with local inference
- `lighteval` with local inference
- choosing between `vllm`, Hugging Face Transformers, and `accelerate`
- smoke tests, task selection, and backend fallback strategy

It does **not** cover:
- Hugging Face Jobs orchestration
- model-card or `model-index` edits
- README table extraction
- Artificial Analysis imports
- `.eval_results` generation or publishing
- PR creation or community-evals automation

If the user wants to **run the same eval remotely on Hugging Face Jobs**, hand off to the `hugging-face-jobs` skill and pass it one of the local scripts in this skill.

If the user wants to **publish results into the community evals workflow**, stop after generating the evaluation run and hand off that publishing step to `~/code/community-evals`.
