✨ models(1) — the "what models do I even have??" page ✨

okay so bestie, this is models from the General Commands Manual, and it's genuinely one of the most useful little tools in your whole toolkit. Let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

models — lists the downloadable models for each engine, and tells you which ones you actually have installed 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

models [--json] [--engine] [--verify] [-h|--help]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So like, models lists the downloadable models per engine and which ones are installed. That's the whole vibe. 🫶

But here's the iconic part: every single listing runs a cheap integrity check. It compares file sizes against the manifest that got recorded back at download time, and for whisper models it also checks the ggml header. And if a model fails that check? It gets reported as not installed. No cap, it just quietly stops counting it. 😭

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• --json — emits machine-readable JSON instead of the human-readable text. Perfect for when you're piping it into something else and need it to be all structured and slay. 🔥
• --engine <NAME> — restricts the output to just one engine, so you're not scrolling through everything like a main character with too much going on. 🧚
• --verify — this one's thorough and slow, babes. It also hashes every file of every installed model against the manifest recorded at download time. Like, it literally reads every byte of every model, which is minutes of your life for a full models directory. Thorough! Slow! Worth it if you're being careful. ⭐

ngl, --verify will make you wait — it's reading everything. Don't run it when you're in a rush, bestie 🙈

• -h, --help — prints help (see a summary with -h). 👑

and that's the whole page, periodt 💜
