Create a SageMaker endpoint (real-time, real-time scale-to-zero, or async) with autoscaling, CloudWatch alarms, and tagging enabled by default. Use this skill whenever about to create a SageMaker endpoint, write deployment code that calls `create_endpoint`, or finalize a deployment after the image URI and IAM role are known. Provides deploy.py for real-time endpoints, deploy_ic.py for real-time endpoints that scale to zero instances via inference components, and deploy_async.py for async endpoints (also scale-to-zero). This is the last step in the SageMaker deployment workflow. Never generate a bare `create_endpoint` call without these defaults — endpoints without autoscaling or alarms are demos, not deployments.

development
Train or fine-tune sentence-transformers models across `SentenceTransformer` (bi-encoder, dense or static embedding model for retrieval, similarity, clustering, classification, paraphrase mining, dedup, multimodal), `CrossEncoder` (reranker, pair scoring for two-stage retrieval / pair classification), `SparseEncoder` (SPLADE, sparse embedding model for learned-sparse retrieval), and `MultiVectorEncoder` (ColBERT / late-interaction, per-token embeddings scored with MaxSim). Covers loss selection, hard-negative mining, evaluators, distillation, LoRA, Matryoshka, and Hugging Face Hub publishing. Use for any sentence-transformers training task.
devops
Plan and coordinate the deployment of a model to Amazon SageMaker AI. Use this skill whenever the user wants to deploy, host, serve, or expose a model on SageMaker or AWS — including phrases like "deploy a model", "host this LLM on AWS", "serve this embedding model", "deploy a reranker", "deploy a text-to-image / diffusion model", "host this for async inference", "create an endpoint", "serve my fine-tuned model", or any request that involves making a model available for inference on AWS. Use this even when the user is vague (e.g. "I just want to get this running on AWS, you figure it out"). Works for text-generation LLMs, embedding models, rerankers, classifiers, text-to-image / diffusion models — picks the right serving stack and chooses between real-time and async inference. This is the entry-point skill for SageMaker deployment work — it asks clarifying questions, picks a deployment pathway, and coordinates the other deployment skills.
tools
Train and fine-tune transformer language models using TRL (Transformers Reinforcement Learning). Supports SFT, DPO, GRPO, KTO, RLOO and Reward Model training via CLI commands.
development
Build, deploy, and maintain applications on Hugging Face Spaces — Gradio / Docker / Static SDKs, ZeroGPU and dedicated hardware, model loading, debugging, buckets, inference providers, community grants. Use whenever the user asks to create or host an app on Hugging Face, port code onto ZeroGPU, fix a Space that won't build or run, or otherwise work with `hf spaces …`, `@spaces.GPU`, Space README frontmatter, or the `spaces` Python package.
