+hf download EndlessChasing/Mamba2_3GB_ReCall_Recovered --revision main --local-dir ./model-download

+The root `meta.yaml` describes this custom-runtime release. Hugging Face uses
+requests to recognized metadata files as a download-counting proxy; these
+statistics do not certify completed model downloads or unique users. Downloads
+that omit this file, including the original release tag, may not contribute to
+the counter. The supplied custom loader is still required.
+
 The loader verifies all 507 decoded base and 224 adapter tensor hashes and always
 installs the soft adapter. Original full-precision weights, Hessians and training
 data are unnecessary. Keep reports outside `release/` and `restored-model/raw/`.
