Class HuggingFaceDetector
Detects HuggingFace Inference API availability via API key. Dynamically discovers the most popular inference-ready chat models from the HuggingFace Hub, falling back to a curated catalog when offline.
HuggingFace deprecated the old api-inference.huggingface.co endpoint (returns 410 Gone). All requests now use the OpenAI-compatible router: https://router.huggingface.co/v1/
