+# VisDet Model Weights
+
+This repository contains pretrained weights for [VisDet](https://github.com/BinItAI/visdet),
+a streamlined object detection and instance segmentation library.
+
+## Models
+
+The weights are organized by source:
+- `openmmlab/`: Backbone weights from OpenMMLab's model zoo
+- `mmcls/`: Classification backbone weights from MMClassification
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from visdet.apis import init_detector
+
+# Use HuggingFace-hosted weights
+model = init_detector(
+    config="configs/mask_rcnn/mask_rcnn_r50_fpn_1x_coco.py",
+    checkpoint="hf://GeorgePearse/visdet-weights/openmmlab/resnet50_msra-5891d200.pth"
+)
+```
+
+Or in config files:
+```python
+model = dict(
+    backbone=dict(
+        init_cfg=dict(
+            type="Pretrained",
+            checkpoint="hf://GeorgePearse/visdet-weights/openmmlab/resnet50_msra-5891d200.pth"
+        )
+    )
+)
+```
