@copilot can you please use playwright to take some screenshots of each stage of the process as would occur if we launched the mcp server with ipfs-accelerate mcp start, and I was going to the dashboard to start to download several models from the huggingface hub to the local model manager, and we run them to make sure that they actually perform inference. |

…patibility - Added detailed installation instructions in INSTALL.md. - Updated dependency names in pyproject.toml for consistency. - Ensured compatibility with urllib3<2 across requirements files.

@copilot What Needs to Be Done
To fix the details endpoint, the following changes are needed in ipfs_accelerate_py/mcp_dashboard.py (or the Flask/integrated server handler):
Python
@app.route('/api/mcp/models/path:model_id/details', methods=['GET'])
def get_model_details(model_id):
"""Get detailed information about a specific model"""
try:
# Use HuggingFaceHubScanner to get model info
scanner = HuggingFaceHubScanner()
# Check cache first
if model_id in scanner.model_cache:
model_info = scanner.model_cache[model_id]
return jsonify({
'status': 'success',
'model': model_info.to_dict()
})
# Fetch from API if not in cache
search_results = scanner.search_models(model_id, limit=1)
if search_results:
return jsonify({
'status': 'success',
'model': search_results[0].to_dict()
})
return jsonify({
'status': 'error',
'message': f'Model {model_id} not found'
}), 404
except Exception as e:
return jsonify({
'status': 'error',
'message': str(e)
}), 500
The implementation is 95% complete - only this one missing endpoint prevents the Details button from working. All other functionality (search, download, UI workflow) is operational.

complete the implementation, add the model details endpoint to ipfs_accelerate_py/mcp_dashboard.py (Flask route) or integrate it into the CLI integrated server handler. The endpoint should fetch model metadata from the HuggingFaceHubScanner cache or API and return it in JSON format. |
Added model details endpoint with proper path handling (commit pending). The endpoint already exists but had a routing issue - model IDs with slashes (like Additionally enhanced the endpoint to:

@copilot i would like you to please make sure that the section 📚 Available Models you replace the text No description available with the description of the model, truncated to some length, and make sure that you can also put a more full summary from the model card in the details

Add Model Details Endpoint to Integrated Server
Problem
The model details button was returning HTTP 404 errors:
Root Cause: The integrated HTTP server in
cli.py(used when Flask is not installed) only had handlers for search/stats/test endpoints, but not for model details.Solution
Added
/api/mcp/models/{model_id}/detailsendpoint to the integrated server handler.Changes Made

Users can now:
The dashboard is now fully functional with complete model information display, fixing the last remaining HTTP 404 error.
Original prompt
@copilot
Current Status:
✅ Architecture complete (all layers exist)
⚠️ Blocker: HuggingFace search uses mock data (returns empty results)
✅ Backend tools work (Phase 1-2 pass)
✅ API endpoints implemented
✅ GUI components created
Root Cause:
huggingface_search_engine.py module unavailable → scanner falls back to mock implementation → searches return no models.
What's Needed:
Implement real HuggingFace Hub API (via huggingface_hub package or direct API)
Install dependencies: pip install flask flask-cors huggingface_hub
Test end-to-end with real data
Run Playwright verification with screenshots
Next Steps:
Working on implementing real HuggingFace API integration to replace mock, then will verify complete workflow with Playwright tests and screenshots as requested.
The systematic approach (backend → package → API → GUI) has identified the exact issue preventing end-to-end functionality.
[Chronological Review: The conversation began with user requests to restart the MCP server dashboard, ensure the virtual environment was up to date, and reinstall Python packages. The user encountered various errors related to package installations and server configurations, including missing dependencies and syntax errors in the code. The user expressed a desire to modify the MCP server settings to allow access from all interfaces (0.0.0.0) and to create a new tab for the model manager in the dashboard. The conversation progressed through troubleshooting steps, including verifying package installations and addressing errors related to the Flask framework and HuggingFace API integration.][Intent Mapping:
