How to use this workflow

  1. Inspect the correct origin

    Open the tool origin in a secure browser context. In developer tools inspect site storage usage, or evaluate navigator.storage.estimate() in your own console. Record usage and quota with date and browser version; API availability can vary.

  2. Compare before and after setup

    Record the estimate before downloading a model and again after successful setup. Keep the tool, origin and browser profile the same. Also record whether the model was already cached, because a warm run may add little storage.

A calculated quota example

Hypothetical example: usage 200 MiB and quota 1000 MiB leave an estimated 800 MiB, or 80% of that reported quota. Convert bytes to MiB by dividing by 1,048,576. This is arithmetic, not a measurement of this site’s model size, your disk or a guarantee that the next write will succeed.

Swipe or scroll sideways to read all columns.

Verify the result and record its limits

Quota and usage may be approximate and change with browser policy, disk pressure or other activity. More storage quota cannot fix a decode allocation failure in memory. If setup fails, retain the exact error and check whether it names network, integrity, storage or memory. Save work before clearing caches; a download may be required again afterward.

Common questions

Was this example measured on my device?

No. The worksheet and any hypothetical numbers are explicitly labeled. Use a harmless recording to collect your own observations and record the browser, date and exact operation.
