Hugging Face Inference Patterns

Quick Guide: Use @huggingface/inference (v4+) to access 200k+ ML models on the Hugging Face Hub. Use InferenceClient with chatCompletion() for OpenAI-compatible chat, textGeneration() for raw text completion, chatCompletionStream() for streaming, featureExtraction() for embeddings, textToImage() for image generation, and automaticSpeechRecognition() for audio transcription. Set provider to route through inference providers (Cerebras, Together, Groq, etc.) or use endpointUrl for dedicated Inference Endpoints.

CRITICAL: Before Using This Skill

All code must follow project conventions in CLAUDE.md (kebab-case, named exports, import ordering, import type, named constants)

(You MUST always pass an access token to InferenceClient -- never deploy without authentication)

(You MUST use chatCompletion() / chatCompletionStream() for conversational LLM tasks -- these follow the OpenAI-compatible message format)

(You MUST handle errors using InferenceClientError and its subclasses -- never use bare catch blocks without error type checking)

(You MUST specify a model parameter for every inference call -- there is no default model)

(You MUST never hardcode access tokens -- always use environment variables via process.env.HF_TOKEN)

Auto-detection: Hugging Face, huggingface, @huggingface/inference, InferenceClient, HfInference, hf.chatCompletion, hf.textGeneration, hf.featureExtraction, hf.textToImage, hf.automaticSpeechRecognition, hf.translation, hf.summarization, hf.textToSpeech, chatCompletionStream, textGenerationStream, HF_TOKEN, inference provider, Inference Endpoints

When to use:

  • Accessing any of the 200k+ models hosted on the Hugging Face Hub
  • Running chat completion with open-source LLMs (Qwen, Mistral, Llama, etc.)
  • Generating embeddings with sentence-transformer models for semantic search
  • Generating images from text prompts (FLUX, Stable Diffusion)
  • Transcribing audio with automatic speech recognition models
  • Running translation, summarization, text classification, or NER tasks
  • Deploying models on dedicated Inference Endpoints for production use
  • Using third-party inference providers (Cerebras, Together, Groq, Replicate, etc.) through a unified API

Key patterns covered:

  • InferenceClient initialization and configuration
  • Chat Completion API (OpenAI-compatible messages format, streaming)
  • Text generation (raw completion, streaming)
  • Embeddings via feature extraction
  • Image generation (text-to-image)
  • Audio transcription (automatic speech recognition)
  • Translation, summarization, and text classification
  • Inference Endpoints (dedicated deployments)
  • Inference Providers (routing through third-party services)
  • Error handling with typed error classes

When NOT to use:

  • If you only use OpenAI models -- use the OpenAI SDK directly
  • If you need a provider-agnostic unified SDK with structured outputs and tool calling -- use a higher-level AI SDK
  • If you need to fine-tune or train models -- use the @huggingface/hub package or Python transformers

Philosophy

The @huggingface/inference SDK provides a unified TypeScript client for accessing hundreds of thousands of ML models through multiple backends: serverless Inference Providers, dedicated Inference Endpoints, and local servers.

Core principles:

  1. Model-agnostic access -- One client, any model on the Hub. Swap models by changing the model parameter without code changes.
  2. Provider flexibility -- Route inference through 20+ providers (Cerebras, Together, Groq, Replicate, etc.) with a single provider parameter, or deploy your own Inference Endpoints.
  3. Task-oriented API -- Methods map to ML tasks (chatCompletion, textToImage, automaticSpeechRecognition), not raw HTTP endpoints.
  4. OpenAI-compatible chat -- chatCompletion() uses the OpenAI message format (role + content), making migration between providers easy.
  5. Streaming as async generators -- chatCompletionStream() and textGenerationStream() return AsyncGenerator, consumed with for await...of.

Core Patterns

Pattern 1: Client Setup

Initialize with your Hugging Face access token. The token is required for authenticated access.

// lib/hf-client.ts -- basic setup
import { InferenceClient } from "@huggingface/inference";

const client = new InferenceClient(process.env.HF_TOKEN);

export { client };

// lib/hf-client.ts -- with custom endpoint
const ENDPOINT_URL =
  "https://your-endpoint.us-east-1.aws.endpoints.huggingface.cloud/v1/";

const client = new InferenceClient(process.env.HF_TOKEN, {
  endpointUrl: ENDPOINT_URL,
});

export { client };

Why good: Token from env var, named constant for endpoint URL, named export

// BAD: Hardcoded token, no named export
const hf = new InferenceClient("hf_abc123xyz");
export default hf;

Why bad: Hardcoded token is a security risk, default export violates conventions

See: examples/core.md for provider routing, local endpoints, and endpoint helper

Pattern 2: Chat Completion (OpenAI-Compatible)

Use chatCompletion() for conversational LLM tasks. Follows the OpenAI message format.

const MAX_TOKENS = 512;
const TEMPERATURE = 0.1;

const response = await client.chatCompletion({
  model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
  provider: "cerebras",
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "You are a helpful coding assistant." },
    { role: "user", content: "Explain TypeScript generics." },
  ],
  max_tokens: MAX_TOKENS,
  temperature: TEMPERATURE,
});

console.log(response.choices[0].message.content);

Why good: Named constants for parameters, explicit model and provider, system message for behavior

// BAD: No model specified, magic numbers, no system message
const response = await client.chatCompletion({
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "do something" }],
  max_tokens: 512,
  temperature: 0.1,
});

Why bad: Missing required model, magic numbers, vague prompt, no system instruction

See: examples/core.md for multi-turn conversations and provider selection

Pattern 3: Streaming Chat Completion

Use chatCompletionStream() for streaming responses. Returns an AsyncGenerator.

const MAX_TOKENS = 512;
let fullResponse = "";

for await (const chunk of client.chatCompletionStream({
  model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
  provider: "cerebras",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Explain async/await in TypeScript." }],
  max_tokens: MAX_TOKENS,
})) {
  if (chunk.choices && chunk.choices.length > 0) {
    const content = chunk.choices[0].delta.content;
    if (content) {
      process.stdout.write(content);
      fullResponse += content;
    }
  }
}
console.log(); // newline

Why good: Async generator consumed with for await, progressive output, null checks on chunk data

// BAD: Not checking chunk.choices, ignoring null content
for await (const chunk of client.chatCompletionStream({
  model: "...",
  messages: [],
})) {
  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0].delta.content); // May throw on null
}

Why bad: No null check -- choices may be empty, content may be null between chunks

See: examples/core.md for text generation streaming

Pattern 4: Text Generation (Raw Completion)

Use textGeneration() for prompt continuation without the chat message format.

const MAX_NEW_TOKENS = 250;

const result = await client.textGeneration({
  model: "mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1",
  provider: "together",
  inputs: "The key benefits of TypeScript are",
  parameters: { max_new_tokens: MAX_NEW_TOKENS },
});

console.log(result.generated_text);

Why good: Named constant, clear prompt, explicit provider, direct access to generated_text

See: examples/core.md for streaming text generation

Pattern 5: Embeddings (Feature Extraction)

Use featureExtraction() for generating vector embeddings for semantic search and RAG.

const embeddings = await client.featureExtraction({
  model: "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2",
  inputs: "That is a happy person",
});
// Returns: number[] (embedding vector)

Why good: Purpose-built embedding model, simple input/output

See: examples/tasks.md for batch embeddings and cosine similarity

Pattern 6: Image Generation (Text-to-Image)

Use textToImage() to generate images from text prompts. Returns a Blob.

const imageBlob = await client.textToImage({
  model: "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev",
  inputs: "a serene mountain landscape at sunset",
  provider: "replicate",
});
// imageBlob is a Blob -- write to file or convert to buffer

Why good: Explicit model and provider, descriptive prompt

See: examples/tasks.md for saving images, image-to-image, and output formats

Pattern 7: Audio Transcription

Use automaticSpeechRecognition() for speech-to-text.

import { readFileSync } from "node:fs";

const result = await client.automaticSpeechRecognition({
  model: "facebook/wav2vec2-large-960h-lv60-self",
  data: readFileSync("audio/recording.flac"),
});

console.log(result.text);

Why good: Uses data parameter with file buffer, outputs .text

See: examples/tasks.md for Whisper models, audio classification, and text-to-speech

Pattern 8: Error Handling

Always catch InferenceClientError and its subclasses. Re-throw unexpected errors.

import {
  InferenceClientError,
  InferenceClientInputError,
  InferenceClientProviderApiError,
  InferenceClientProviderOutputError,
  InferenceClientHubApiError,
} from "@huggingface/inference";

try {
  const result = await client.chatCompletion({
    model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
    messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
  });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof InferenceClientProviderApiError) {
    console.error("Provider API error:", error.message);
    console.error("Request:", error.request);
    console.error("Response:", error.response);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientHubApiError) {
    console.error("Hub API error:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientProviderOutputError) {
    console.error("Malformed provider response:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientInputError) {
    console.error("Invalid input:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientError) {
    console.error("Inference error:", error.message);
  } else {
    throw error; // Re-throw non-inference errors
  }
}

Why good: Specific error types for each failure mode, request/response details for debugging, re-throws unexpected errors

See: examples/core.md for full error handling patterns

## Core Patterns

### Pattern 1: Client Setup

Initialize with your Hugging Face access token. The token is required for authenticated access.

```typescript
// lib/hf-client.ts -- basic setup
import { InferenceClient } from "@huggingface/inference";

const client = new InferenceClient(process.env.HF_TOKEN);

export { client };
```

```typescript
// lib/hf-client.ts -- with custom endpoint
const ENDPOINT_URL =
  "https://your-endpoint.us-east-1.aws.endpoints.huggingface.cloud/v1/";

const client = new InferenceClient(process.env.HF_TOKEN, {
  endpointUrl: ENDPOINT_URL,
});

export { client };
```

**Why good:** Token from env var, named constant for endpoint URL, named export

```typescript
// BAD: Hardcoded token, no named export
const hf = new InferenceClient("hf_abc123xyz");
export default hf;
```

**Why bad:** Hardcoded token is a security risk, default export violates conventions

**See:** [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) for provider routing, local endpoints, and endpoint helper

---

### Pattern 2: Chat Completion (OpenAI-Compatible)

Use `chatCompletion()` for conversational LLM tasks. Follows the OpenAI message format.

```typescript
const MAX_TOKENS = 512;
const TEMPERATURE = 0.1;

const response = await client.chatCompletion({
  model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
  provider: "cerebras",
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "You are a helpful coding assistant." },
    { role: "user", content: "Explain TypeScript generics." },
  ],
  max_tokens: MAX_TOKENS,
  temperature: TEMPERATURE,
});

console.log(response.choices[0].message.content);
```

**Why good:** Named constants for parameters, explicit model and provider, system message for behavior

```typescript
// BAD: No model specified, magic numbers, no system message
const response = await client.chatCompletion({
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "do something" }],
  max_tokens: 512,
  temperature: 0.1,
});
```

**Why bad:** Missing required `model`, magic numbers, vague prompt, no system instruction

**See:** [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) for multi-turn conversations and provider selection

---

### Pattern 3: Streaming Chat Completion

Use `chatCompletionStream()` for streaming responses. Returns an `AsyncGenerator`.

```typescript
const MAX_TOKENS = 512;
let fullResponse = "";

for await (const chunk of client.chatCompletionStream({
  model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
  provider: "cerebras",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Explain async/await in TypeScript." }],
  max_tokens: MAX_TOKENS,
})) {
  if (chunk.choices && chunk.choices.length > 0) {
    const content = chunk.choices[0].delta.content;
    if (content) {
      process.stdout.write(content);
      fullResponse += content;
    }
  }
}
console.log(); // newline
```

**Why good:** Async generator consumed with `for await`, progressive output, null checks on chunk data

```typescript
// BAD: Not checking chunk.choices, ignoring null content
for await (const chunk of client.chatCompletionStream({
  model: "...",
  messages: [],
})) {
  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0].delta.content); // May throw on null
}
```

**Why bad:** No null check -- `choices` may be empty, `content` may be null between chunks

**See:** [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) for text generation streaming

---

### Pattern 4: Text Generation (Raw Completion)

Use `textGeneration()` for prompt continuation without the chat message format.

```typescript
const MAX_NEW_TOKENS = 250;

const result = await client.textGeneration({
  model: "mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1",
  provider: "together",
  inputs: "The key benefits of TypeScript are",
  parameters: { max_new_tokens: MAX_NEW_TOKENS },
});

console.log(result.generated_text);
```

**Why good:** Named constant, clear prompt, explicit provider, direct access to `generated_text`

**See:** [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) for streaming text generation

---

### Pattern 5: Embeddings (Feature Extraction)

Use `featureExtraction()` for generating vector embeddings for semantic search and RAG.

```typescript
const embeddings = await client.featureExtraction({
  model: "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2",
  inputs: "That is a happy person",
});
// Returns: number[] (embedding vector)
```

**Why good:** Purpose-built embedding model, simple input/output

**See:** [examples/tasks.md](examples/tasks.md) for batch embeddings and cosine similarity

---

### Pattern 6: Image Generation (Text-to-Image)

Use `textToImage()` to generate images from text prompts. Returns a `Blob`.

```typescript
const imageBlob = await client.textToImage({
  model: "black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev",
  inputs: "a serene mountain landscape at sunset",
  provider: "replicate",
});
// imageBlob is a Blob -- write to file or convert to buffer
```

**Why good:** Explicit model and provider, descriptive prompt

**See:** [examples/tasks.md](examples/tasks.md) for saving images, image-to-image, and output formats

---

### Pattern 7: Audio Transcription

Use `automaticSpeechRecognition()` for speech-to-text.

```typescript
import { readFileSync } from "node:fs";

const result = await client.automaticSpeechRecognition({
  model: "facebook/wav2vec2-large-960h-lv60-self",
  data: readFileSync("audio/recording.flac"),
});

console.log(result.text);
```

**Why good:** Uses `data` parameter with file buffer, outputs `.text`

**See:** [examples/tasks.md](examples/tasks.md) for Whisper models, audio classification, and text-to-speech

---

### Pattern 8: Error Handling

Always catch `InferenceClientError` and its subclasses. Re-throw unexpected errors.

```typescript
import {
  InferenceClientError,
  InferenceClientInputError,
  InferenceClientProviderApiError,
  InferenceClientProviderOutputError,
  InferenceClientHubApiError,
} from "@huggingface/inference";

try {
  const result = await client.chatCompletion({
    model: "Qwen/Qwen3-32B",
    messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
  });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof InferenceClientProviderApiError) {
    console.error("Provider API error:", error.message);
    console.error("Request:", error.request);
    console.error("Response:", error.response);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientHubApiError) {
    console.error("Hub API error:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientProviderOutputError) {
    console.error("Malformed provider response:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientInputError) {
    console.error("Invalid input:", error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof InferenceClientError) {
    console.error("Inference error:", error.message);
  } else {
    throw error; // Re-throw non-inference errors
  }
}
```

**Why good:** Specific error types for each failure mode, request/response details for debugging, re-throws unexpected errors

**See:** [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) for full error handling patterns
