+# ADR 005: model-installation
+
+## Changelog
+
+- 2023-10-18: Initial draft
+
+## Authors
+
+- 0xSage
+
+## Status
+
+Proposed
+
+## Context
+
+There are a few issues with our current model installation method (hardcoding jsons in /models repo):
+
+- Users want to add their own model binaries
+- Maintaining /models is too manual
+
+## Decision
+
+Let Users download models on their own & manually import them to Jan via a "add a model" UI
+
+Links:
+
+- Github issue: https://github.com/janhq/jan/issues/359
+- Related issue: https://github.com/janhq/jan/issues/304
+- Designs: https://www.figma.com/file/JdK7cNIBeVdYeHxKiYeWtk/JAN---Web?type=design&node-id=4092-58218&mode=design&t=8OmFSG0E6I8Y3IjY-0
+
+## Consequences
+
+Closed alternate solutions:
+
+- https://github.com/janhq/jan/issues/328
+
+## Alternatives
+
+Thinking through the model selection experience, there are a few possibilities:
+
+1. [current] We hardcode models (via Github) to show up in Explore Models => unnecessarily manual, missing models users want
+1. We mirror HF models for a faster download => users can also do nitro add llama2
+1. [CHOSEN] Users download models on their own & manually import them to Jan via a "add a model" UI => I like this option actually
+1. [LATER] Users paste in a HF link and download the model in Explore Models => do we still render model cards for them?
+1. Users manage their own models folder, e.g. /Users/nicole/models, then they set folder path in Jan. => this one needs a lot of designs/fe work
