I found examples for uploading model cards solely through the web interface.

Hi,
Model cards are just Markdown files (.md), which you can upload programmatically using the `huggingface_hub` Python library.
Check the guide here: [Upload files to the Hub](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/how-to-upstream)
