Changelog

Write changelog entries for hf.co/changelog that match the existing style.

Workflow

  1. Identify the change: Get the PR/branch name or ask the user
  2. Gather context: Read the PR description and changed files to understand the feature
  3. Write the entry: Follow the format and patterns below

Format

**[Date in "Mon D, YY" format]**

## [Short Title]

[1-2 paragraphs]

Title Patterns

Keep titles short (2-5 words). Common patterns:

  • Noun phrase: "Trending Papers", "GGUF Metadata Editor", "Cleaner Collection URLs"
  • Feature location: "JSON Support in the Dataset Viewer", "HuggingChat for Papers"
  • Action: "Sort Models by Parameter Count", "Set Default Sorting in the Community Tab"

Opening Sentence Patterns

Choose based on the type of change:

Type Pattern Example
New user feature "You can now..." "You can now sort models by their number of parameters..."
Platform addition "All Hugging Face [X] now include/feature..." "All Hugging Face Papers now include a built-in assistant..."
Specific users "[Users/Authors/Owners] can now..." "Repository owners can now set the default sorting..."
Page improvement "[Feature] pages now have..." "Collection pages now have shorter, cleaner links..."
Existing feature "The [feature] now includes..." "The Daily Papers page now includes Trending Papers..."
Breaking change "We've renamed/overhauled..." "We've renamed huggingface-cli to hf..."

Style Rules

  • Date: Mon D, YY (e.g., "Jan 9, 26")
  • 1-2 short paragraphs max
  • Link to relevant HF pages: [Models](https://huggingface.co/models)
  • Use backticks for code/commands: hf download
  • Mention where feature is available (page, profiles, settings)
  • Second paragraph (optional): who it helps, examples, or migration notes
  • Stay neutral - no marketing fluff
  • Include screenshot recommendation when visual

Examples

New feature:

**Jan 22, 26**

## Sort Models by Parameter Size

You can now sort models by their number of parameters on the [Models](https://huggingface.co/models) page and on user and organization profiles. Two new sorting options are available: "Most parameters" and "Least parameters."

Platform-wide addition:

**Jan 7, 26**

## HuggingChat for Papers

All Hugging Face [Papers](https://huggingface.co/papers) now include a built-in assistant, powered by [HuggingChat](https://huggingface.co/chat) and the [Hugging Face MCP server](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/main/en/package_reference/mcp). It helps you quickly understand papers by answering questions, summarizing key ideas, and providing context as you browse the latest research.

Breaking change with migration:

**Jul 25, 25**

## Introducing a better Hugging Face CLI

We've renamed `huggingface-cli` to `hf` and overhauled the command structure for speed and clarity. The new CLI now uses the format `hf <resource> <action>`, so commands like `hf auth login`, `hf repo create`, or `hf download Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B` are now consistent and intuitive.

Migration is easy, the old CLI still works and will gently point you to the new commands.

Improvement with examples:

**Oct 9, 25**

## Organization tagging for Papers

Authors can now tag an Organization when submitting a paper. Each Organization has a dedicated Papers page that automatically lists its tagged publications. See examples: https://huggingface.co/nvidia/papers and https://huggingface.co/google/papers.

This makes it easier for teams to showcase their research and for readers to discover work by lab, company, or community.
