model-shelf

Model Shelf is a local-first model resolver that helps AI agents and scripts find model weights on your own storage before downloading from Hugging Face. Point it at an internal SSD, NAS, external SSD, or Thunderbolt DAS, and it returns the best local path for GGUF, MLX, safetensors, Ollama, vLLM, and other local AI workflows.
