This feature is opt-in: enable it from **Settings → Library → Other Models Management**, or by setting `"enable_other_models": true` in `settings.json`. + +When running as a ComfyUI plugin, these folders are picked up automatically from your ComfyUI folder configuration (including `extra_model_paths.yaml`) — no extra setup needed. + +In standalone mode, add the corresponding keys to `folder_paths` in your `settings.json` (only the ones you want to manage): + +```json +{ + "enable_other_models": true, + "folder_paths": { + "loras": ["C:/path/to/your/loras_folder"], + "checkpoints": ["C:/path/to/your/checkpoints_folder"], + "unet": ["C:/path/to/your/diffusion_models_folder"], + "embeddings": ["C:/path/to/your/embeddings_folder"], + "vae": ["C:/path/to/your/vae_folder"], + "upscale_models": ["C:/path/to/your/upscale_models_folder"], + "text_encoders": ["C:/path/to/your/text_encoders_folder"], + "clip_vision": ["C:/path/to/your/clip_vision_folder"], + "controlnet": ["C:/path/to/your/controlnet_folder"] + } +} +``` + +Available folder keys: `vae`, `upscale_models`, `text_encoders` (legacy alias: `clip`), `clip_vision`, `controlnet`. To manage only some of these types, toggle them under **Settings → Library**, or set `"enabled_other_sub_types"` explicitly, e.g. `"enabled_other_sub_types": ["vae", "upscaler", "text_encoder"]` (the default; add `"clip_vision"` and/or `"controlnet"` to manage those too). Restart standalone mode after editing `settings.json`. + This standalone mode provides a lightweight option for managing your model and recipe collection without needing to run the full ComfyUI environment, making it useful even for users who primarily use other stable diffusion interfaces. ## Testing & Coverage
