llama-cpp SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
llama-cpp from jensen-yao/agents-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add jensen-yao/agents-skills/llama-cpp@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Runs LLM inference on CPU, Apple Silicon, and consumer GPUs without NVIDIA hardware. Use for edge deployment, M1/M2/M3 Macs, AMD/Intel GPUs, or when CUDA is unavailable. Supports GGUF quantization (1.5-8 bit) for reduced memory and 4-10× speedup vs PyTorch on CPU.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# llama.cpp
Pure C/C++ LLM inference with minimal dependencies, optimized for CPUs and non-NVIDIA hardware.
## When to use llama.cpp
**Use llama.cpp when:**
- Running on CPU-only machines
- Deploying on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4)
- Using AMD or Intel GPUs (no CUDA)
- Edge deployment (Raspberry Pi, embedded systems)
- Need simple deployment without Docker/Python
**Use TensorRT-LLM instead when:**
- Have NVIDIA GPUs (A100/H100)
- Need maximum throughput (100K+ tok/s)
- Running in datacenter with CUDA
**Use vLLM instead when:**
- Have NVIDIA GPUs
- Need Python-first API
- Want PagedAttention
## Quick start
### Installation
```bash
# macOS/Linux
brew install llama.cpp
# Or build from source
git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp
cd llama.cpp
make
# With Metal (Apple Silicon)
make LLAMA_METAL=1
# With CUDA (NVIDIA)
make LLAMA_CUDA=1
# With ROCm (AMD)
make LLAMA_HIP=1
```
### Download model
```bash
# Download from HuggingFace (GGUF format)
huggingface-cli download \
TheBloke/Llama-2-7B-Chat-GGUF \
llama-2-7b-chat.Q4_K_M.gguf \
--local-dir models/
# Or convert from HuggingFace
python convert_hf_to_gguf.py models/llama-2-7b-chat/
```

How to install
mdr add jensen-yao/agents-skills/llama-cpp@sha256:d74caa45483f5b3cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
