I made a simple Colab script to help you back up your models from tensor.art to HuggingFace Hub.
As you probably know, Tensor doesn’t allow direct downloads with wget, aria2c, or curl, since it requires you to click a button, log in, or run JavaScript before downloading.
You can check it out here on my GitHub:
👉
Just open the Colab link provided in the repo and click the “Open in Colab” badge to get started.
How it works (quick summary):
Run Chrome inside Colab and use the public Gradio link to download your files (everything lands in /content/Downloads/).
Log in to Hugging Face with your token and set up a repo (model or dataset).
Upload your files directly to HuggingFace Hub — done ✅.
And the best part: this Colab isn’t just for HuggingFace. You can also use it to transfer or upload your models to other platforms — without wasting your own data quota. Since we’re using Google’s blazing-fast servers, downloads and uploads are way faster (especially handy if, like me, your local internet is super slow hahaha).
⚠️ Important note:
Don’t forget to disconnect and delete your runtime when you’re done to clear all your Colab history.
Also, avoid logging in with sensitive personal accounts inside this Colab. Always DYOR and stay safe ✌️.
