# TRL Training on Hugging Face Jobs

Train or fine-tune TRL language models on Hugging Face Jobs, including SFT, DPO, GRPO, and GGUF export.

## When to Use
- The request matches the skill description: Train or fine-tune TRL language models on Hugging Face Jobs, including SFT, DPO, GRPO, and GGUF export.
- The task needs the implementation patterns, examples, validation checks, or edge cases listed in the topic map.
- The work would benefit from the complete guidance preserved in `references/full-guidance.md`.

## Core Workflow
1. Confirm the request matches this skill's trigger, scope, and risk profile.
2. Use the topic map to identify the relevant pattern, checklist, or example before writing detailed guidance or code.
3. Load `references/full-guidance.md` when implementation details, examples, anti-patterns, validation checks, or edge cases are needed.
4. Apply only the relevant guidance instead of loading or repeating the entire reference by default.
5. Verify the result against any validation checks, limitations, security notes, or platform constraints in the reference.
