When does this happen?

IF Hardcoded API token or key is accidentally exposed in code shared on GitHub or other public sources.

How others solved it

THEN Remove hardcoded credentials from code and use environment variables or a secrets manager. Immediately rotate any leaked tokens.

Use `os.getenv('HF_TOKEN')` instead of hardcoding.
