Get models

Gateway models need no download. These commands are for open models you want on your own machine, through the same CLI.

Search and list

terminal
conifer models search <words>
conifer models list

search browses the catalog of open models you can pull, with size and capabilities. list shows everything this machine can use right now, the gateway models as well as the ones installed here.

Pull

terminal
conifer models pull <build-name>

Takes a name from models search. The download is verified, and if it is interrupted the same command picks up where it left off.

Import a GGUF you already have

terminal
conifer models import <path>.gguf --name <model-name>

Registers the file where it is, without copying it. If the engine cannot run that architecture yet, the CLI says so.

Remove

terminal
conifer models remove <model-name> --yes

Deletes a pulled model. An imported model is only unregistered and your file stays put.
