Horde Model Reference
Horde Model Reference is the authoritative source for AI model metadata in the AI-Horde ecosystem: download URLs, SHA-256 checksums, baselines, NSFW flags, and capabilities for image generation, text generation, and utility models used by workers, clients, and services.
It is three things in one package: a set of JSON reference files, a Python library, and a FastAPI service.
Install
pip install horde-model-reference
Quick try
from horde_model_reference import ModelReferenceManager, MODEL_REFERENCE_CATEGORY
manager = ModelReferenceManager() # auto-fetches from the PRIMARY server, caches in memory
models = manager.get_model_reference(MODEL_REFERENCE_CATEGORY.image_generation)
for name, model in models.items():
print(f"{name}: {model.baseline}, NSFW={model.nsfw}")
No configuration needed -- the defaults work out of the box. The library runs in read-only REPLICA mode, fetching from models.aihorde.net with automatic fallback to the original GitHub repositories if the PRIMARY server is unreachable.
For the fluent query API (filter, sort, aggregate, merge sources), HTTP API access, deploying your own server, or contributing model data, see the full documentation.
