Hi everyone! I’m sharing **triton-hf-builder**, an open-source Python library and CLI that generates NVIDIA Triton model repositories from local Hugging Face checkpoints.

It creates model configuration, runtime adapters and dependency files for **Transformers, vLLM and TensorRT-LLM**. Repository generation runs without a GPU and does not load model weights.

The project includes a Docker quickstart that downloads a small checkpoint, starts CPU serving and sends an inference request.

```
pip install triton-hf-builder
```

Currently in beta, licensed under Apache-2.0. Model and hardware compatibility depends on the selected serving backend.

Feedback, bug reports and experiences with different model architectures are welcome!
