# Hugging Face Kernel API

One compute kernel with its driver support, download counts and publisher trust.

`GET /v1/hugging-face/kernels/{owner}/{name}` returns `kernel` with `id`, `uid`, `url`, `author`, `createdAt`, `lastModified`, `likes`, `downloads`, `trendingScore`, `sha`, `tags`, `supportedDriverFamilies` and `trustedPublisher`.

`lookupStatus` is `found` or `not_found`. This is the detail view of one kernel; the search endpoint pages the full list and the accounts likes endpoint can show kernels a user liked.

## FAQ

### What does supportedDriverFamilies mean?

The hardware driver families the kernel declares support for, for example cuda.

### What if the kernel does not exist?

lookupStatus is not_found and kernel is null. HTTP 200 only means the request finished.

### Does trustedPublisher mean the author is verified?

It is the platform's trust flag for the publisher. It can be null when the platform does not say.

### How much does a kernel lookup cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.
