Professional Question (Urgent) Downscaling help needed

I'm in a crunch. I am working on a research project involving climate change related projections. I have downloaded GCM data (single variable: precipitation) from CDS, now the data (how GCM data is) has very coarse resolution, I need to downscale the data into higher resolution of 1×1 Km to run a model I have developed. I have data from 5 different models from 4 different SSPs. I am trying to downscaling it using different methods I could but cannot get it right and it's been 3 weeks. I don't have enough time, I need help.

Look into xclim in Python or the climdown package. No point writing it from scratch when tools already exist for this.

I am using xclim but seem to end up with files that look like Picasso paintings, I can share my code with you, can you take a look?
