Other Models management is opt-in and its folders come from
folder_paths.get_folder_paths(). In plugin mode ComfyUI registers vae,
upscale_models, text_encoders, clip_vision and controlnet out of the box, so
enabling the feature works immediately. Standalone only knows the keys present
in settings.json.folder_paths, and that file is edited by hand - there is no UI
for those keys - so a standalone user who followed the announcement banner
reached "Enable Other Models" and then an empty page.
Gate the announcement on the capability instead of on how the process was
started:
- Config.get_other_models_availability() probes every canonical other key
(legacy clip collapses into text_encoders where the host exposes
map_legacy) and reports which sub_types resolve to a folder that exists on
disk. It deliberately ignores enable_other_models: the question is "could
this work here at all?". An empty folder counts, because CivitAI downloads
can target it.
- /api/lm/settings exposes it as the derived, non-persisted
other_models_paths_available flag; a probe failure yields null and the
banner fails open.
- BannerService only registers the announcement when the flag is not false.
`=== false` (not falsy) keeps a cached/older payload working, and nothing is
written to dismissed_banners, so the banner can return once folders exist.
- The Other page grows an "enabled but nothing to scan" empty state driven by
config.other_roots, showing the settings.json snippet for standalone and a
pointer to ComfyUI model paths otherwise, plus an Open Settings action. It
also covers the corner where only a non-default sub_type has a folder.
Translate the six other.noPaths.* keys into all nine locales and record the
new "folder key" / "on disk" terminology in the i18n guidelines.
Backend tests and pytest tests/i18n could not run in this environment (no
pytest/platformdirs); the probe was exercised against a stubbed folder_paths.
Frontend: 120 files / 1101 JS tests passed.
A model could have CivitAI metadata and a HuggingFace link at the same time,
but only one of the two "View on ..." entries ever rendered, because both the
model modal and the card globe asked the `from_civitai` provenance flag which
source to show. `set_hf_url` wrote `false` and a CivitAI refresh wrote `true`,
so whichever ran last erased the other: linking HF hid "View on CivitAI" even
though the civitai payload was still in the sidecar, and (on the card) a later
refresh pointed the single globe icon back at CivitAI, hiding the HF entry.
Decide the links from the data itself instead:
- `set_hf_url` no longer touches `from_civitai`; it records where the metadata
came from, and HF provenance is already tracked by `hf_url`.
- Add `hasCivitaiSource(civitai)` in the shared card/modal utils and gate the
modal's CivitAI link, the card globe (title, enabled state, click target,
new `data-has_civitai`) and the context-menu `civitai` action on actual
CivitAI data (`modelId` / `model_id` / `id`). A dual-source model now shows
both links, and a CivitAI-only model with no `hf_url` stays as before.
- Agent HF enrichment (`PostProcessor.is_hf_model`) keyed off
`not from_civitai`, which stopped being a synonym for "has an HF source" once
both sources can coexist (and already broke after a CivitAI refresh flipped
the flag back to true). Key it off `hf_url` directly; the post-processor
tests move to that discriminator and gain a dual-source case.
Regression tests: the set-hf-url handler preserves civitai + `from_civitai`
and no longer forces the flag false, the modal renders both links (including
with `from_civitai: false`), and the card globe targets/opens the right source
and is disabled when neither is available.
Backend: 2749 passed. Frontend: 1098 JS + 91 Vue tests passed.
Implements the backend slice (B1-B7) of
lm-civitai-extension/docs/other-models-support.md, which lets the companion
browser extension detect, badge and download the opt-in Other Models types
(VAE / upscaler / text encoder / CLIP vision / ControlNet).
ModelLibraryHandler:
- _normalize_model_type() learns the CivitAI other aliases (vae, upscaler,
textencoder, clip, clipvision, controlnet, other) and maps them to "other".
- _get_scanner_for_type() resolves "other" through the other scanner, but only
while enable_other_models is on, so model-versions-status and
model-version-download-status keep their legacy 400 when the feature is off.
- check_model_exists() / check_models_exist() consult the other scanner last
(lora -> checkpoint -> embedding -> other) and report modelType "other".
With the feature disabled both endpoints stay byte-identical to before and
the other scanner is never touched.
DownloadManager:
- The four other-type default-path failures now carry a machine-readable
"reason" (contract C4): other_models_disabled, other_sub_type_disabled,
other_no_default_root, other_sub_type_undecidable. The user-facing "error"
strings are unchanged; the key is additive and reaches the client because
both download endpoints pass the result dict through verbatim.
Tests cover the opt-in on/off branches for both existence endpoints, mixed
lora + other ids in the batch endpoint, the CivitAI alias acceptance and the
400 regression for unknown types, and the exact reason/error pairs for all
four download failure modes.
Other Models management is now opt-in: enable_other_models (default false)
plus the enabled_other_sub_types allow-list replace the unreleased additive
enabled_other_folders key.
- config._get_enabled_other_folder_keys() is the single scan gate; a new
refresh_other_roots() rebuilds roots and preview roots on toggle.
- ModelScanner gains a _should_keep_cached_entry() hydration hook and
on_library_changed(reconcile=...) so switching a sub_type off drops its
entries (and hash/autov3 rows) at load time and switching it on rescans.
- OtherScanner filters location-derived entries accordingly.
- Other routes reject every other type while off (or a disabled sub_type) and
expose an "other_disabled" page flag; download routing returns a disabled
marker instead of guessing; the download manager refuses other-type
downloads and default-path routing for switched-off sub_types.
- Doctor / init-status / refresh-all skip the other scanner while off; the
scanner stays registered so staged pending-deletes still merge.
- Tests updated with explicit opt-in fixtures plus new gating coverage.
The browse endpoint and its frontend were written with POSIX-only
assumptions, so on Windows pressing Browse immediately failed with
"Access denied to this directory":
- The frontend opened the browser at "/", which resolves to the
current drive root on Windows.
- The allowlist check used Path("/"), which has no drive letter on
Windows, so relative_to() rejected every drive-qualified path —
anything outside the user profile was denied.
Fixes:
- Empty browse path now defaults to the user home directory instead of
erroring; the frontend sends "" rather than the POSIX-only "/".
- The access check is platform-aware (drive-qualified on Windows,
absolute on POSIX).
- Parent navigation uses the server-provided parent_path; the root
check is now path.parent == path (the old str/anchor comparison
self-looped at Windows drive roots).
- Browsing up from a Windows drive root shows a virtual list of
available drives so users can switch drives without typing a path.
The download modal's location step decided between checkpoint and unet
roots using only the CivitAI file-type signal, while the backend also
falls back to DIFFUSION_MODEL_BASE_MODELS. Models like Anima (file type
"Model") were offered checkpoint roots in the UI even though
use_default_paths would route them to the unet root.
- Extract the two-tier decision into py/services/download_routing.py and
reuse it in DownloadManager._execute_download
- Add POST /api/lm/download/routing so the UI asks the backend for the
routing decision; fall back to the local file-type check on failure
- ModelVersionsTab: search both checkpoint and unet roots when resolving
an existing version's download path
- Snapshot pre-rematch entry state (reconnectSnapshot) so rematched
entries can be undone via the existing restore flow
- Bulk missing-LoRA downloads mark unresolvable failures hash-invalid,
flipping those entries from download to reconnect candidacy
- Recipe modal always offers a reconnect action next to download for
missing LoRA entries
- Rematch runs collect an opt-in relaxed-matching choice (also reconnect
missing models by file name) via a pre-run options dialog on the
global, bulk and single-recipe entries
- L4 (filename-level) matches are listed in a results dialog with
per-entry undo
Recipes imported from CivitAI image URLs can contain 0 LoRAs: the backend
only sees the REST image API + EXIF, while the complete generation data
lives in the image page's internal trpc payload (see
docs/recipe-civitai-image-no-metadata.md). When the companion
lm-civitai-extension is installed with a valid license, re-import (single
and bulk) of CivitAI-image-sourced recipes is now delegated to the
extension via DOM CustomEvents; the extension scrapes the image page with
the user's session and calls back into the reimport endpoint with the
full metadata payload. Without the extension (or with an invalid license)
the native path runs unchanged.
- POST /api/lm/recipe/{id}/reimport accepts optional payload params
(image_url/name/resources/gen_params/base_model/tags); the payload path
reuses the import-remote engine with reimport semantics (user-edit
carryover, delete-after-save), and malformed/failed payloads fall back
to the legacy URL import. Response gains loras_count.
- The endpoint also accepts GET: the extension is GET-only by convention
(documented in AGENTS.md).
- New static/js/utils/extensionReimportBridge.js (probeExtension /
delegateReimport / getCivitaiImageInfo) wired into RecipeContextMenu
and BulkManager with silent native fallback.
- i18n: toast.recipes.reimportingViaExtension added and translated in
all 9 locales.
The recipe "Repair Metadata" action has been marked Deprecated in the UI
for a while and cannot reliably recover recipes imported from CivitAI URLs
whose REST meta has no resources/hashes and whose image has no embedded
metadata (e.g. CivitAI-only generation data). Drop the feature end to end.
Backend:
- remove repair routes (repair, cancel-repair, recipe/{id}/repair,
repair-bulk, repair-progress) and their handler mappings/methods
- remove RecipeScanner repair_all_recipes / repair_recipe_by_id /
_repair_single_recipe and REPAIR_VERSION
- remove WebSocketManager recipe-repair progress channel
- drop repair_version column from the persistent recipe cache
- rematch mutual-exclusion now only checks rematch
Frontend:
- remove repair entries from per-recipe, bulk and global context menus
- remove repairRecipe / repairSelectedRecipes / repairRecipes + cancelRepair
and the repairBulk API client method/endpoint
- drop recipe-repair i18n keys (synced across locales; doctor keys kept)
Tests/docs: delete test_recipe_repair.py, update scaffolding/routes/ws/
persistent-cache/integration tests and i18n guideline examples.
Re-importing a file-imported recipe fell back to its own saved preview
image, then recorded that internal path as the new recipe's source_path.
Since the old preview is deleted with the old recipe, this left a
dangling source_path that showed up as a bogus source URL and blocked
any further re-import with 'no re-importable source'.
Only persist source_path when the re-import source is an accessible
external file; otherwise keep it empty. Also let a dangling non-URL
source_path fall back to the recipe's own image so existing affected
recipes can re-import again.
The LoRA Manager page kept its active filters in localStorage, which the
ComfyUI-side autocomplete read directly. When the two run in different
browsers, origins, or the ComfyUI Desktop Electron shell, localStorage is
not shared and the active-filters search silently did nothing.
The manager page now mirrors its filter state to a server-side in-memory
store (PUT /api/lm/{prefix}/active-filters), pushed on every change via a
storage-listener hook and once on page load. The autocomplete widget sends
only use_active_filters=true, and the relative-paths endpoint injects the
stored filters into the search, with explicit query params taking
precedence.
Add a de-emphasized meta footer to the recipe modal, mirroring the model
modal's hash footnote: a clickable file location on the left (opens the
recipe JSON via the generic open-file-location route, with the Docker
clipboard fallback) and a middle-truncated recipe ID with copy button on
the right.
The recipe detail API now exposes recipe_json_path so the frontend does
not have to guess the on-disk storage layout. Translations for the new
recipes.modal.* keys are filled in for all 9 locales, reusing the model
modal's openFileLocation wording per locale.
Recipes imported by drag & drop / file-picker record no source_path and
were rejected by re-import. Fall back to the recipe's own saved image,
which still carries the original embedded generation metadata.
Re-import now re-parses that original metadata instead of the appended
recipe JSON block, so parser upgrades produce fresh results. The
already-optimized preview image is kept verbatim: only its WebP EXIF
chunk is rewritten in place to replace the recipe metadata block, and
the recipe JSON is rewritten with the new analysis plus carried-over
user edits.
Normalize undetermined recipe base_model to None in RecipeFormatParser
(previously ''). get_base_models now reports an "Unknown" bucket backed
by a dedicated __unknown__ marker, and the listing filter matches it
against recipes whose base model is falsy. Frontend renders the bucket
label as "Unknown" while filtering via the marker.
Tests: handler, scanner, parser, and frontend filtering.
Checkpoint entries that cannot be restored by download (deleted,
unresolvable hash, or name-only remnants with no CivitAI identifiers)
now get the same remediation chain LoRAs already had:
- scanner: parameterized reconnect-suggestion ranking, update/restore/
set-hash-invalid for the checkpoint entry, and clear hashInvalid on
rematch write-back (was only done for LoRAs)
- persistence/handlers/routes: reconnect/restore/reconnect-suggestions/
mark-hash-invalid endpoints under /api/lm/recipe/checkpoint/*
- modal: checkpoint reconnect UI (deleted/hash-invalid badges, inline
form with suggestions, undo for reconnected entries); download
failures mark the hash invalid only on explicit unresolvable signals
(not found/deleted/404/410), matching the LoRA rule
- css: checkpoint undo button shares the LoRA undo styles
- i18n: the 14 new keys translated in all 9 locales
- Remove py/nodes/random_checkpoint_loader.py and random_unet_loader.py
- Remove their dedicated test file
- Clean up imports and NODE_CLASS_MAPPINGS in __init__.py
- Update loader-pool comments/docstrings to reference the remaining Checkpoint/Unet Loader nodes' control_after_generate feature
The browser extension's apiFetch treats any 404 as a missing endpoint and
retries the legacy non-/api/lm URL, producing two spurious
'error_middleware - WARNING - API GET ... 404' log lines per occurrence.
- complete_download_in_queue / update_download_queue_status /
retry_download_from_history: 'not found' is a normal business outcome,
return 200 + success:false instead of 404 (extension behavior unchanged;
apiGet ignores the HTTP status)
- error_middleware: downgrade /api/lm/download-progress/ 404s to debug like
previews - the 404 status itself stays (extension uses it for failure
detection), only the log level is lowered
initialization.js falls back to polling /api/lm/init-status when the
/ws/init-progress WebSocket cannot be established, but no route ever
registered that path — each poll 404'd and the page never reloaded after
the scan completed. Report the aggregate status of all four scanners and
omit pageType so every initialization page accepts the update.
The version branch of check-model-exists now returns
downloadedFiles: [{fileId, fileName, filePath}] so clients (e.g. the
browser extension) can tell a partially downloaded version apart from a
fully downloaded one. Reuses ModelCivitaiHandler._match_downloaded_files
(D2 rule) against the local cache; unmatchable local files are reported
with fileId: None. No CivitAI API call added.
The Checkpoint/Unet Loader (LoraManager) nodes now support ComfyUI's
built-in control_after_generate mechanism on the ckpt_name/unet_name combos,
letting users pick a random model on every queue with the selected model
written back into the widget (visible, and lockable via the 'fixed' mode).
A base_model input narrows the random pool: a front-end extension fetches
the name/base_model mapping from the new /api/lm/checkpoints/loader-pool
endpoint and filters the combo options, wired through the node callback,
the refreshComboInNodes extension hook, and a graph.onConfigure hook
installed from onAdded (onNodeCreated fires before the node is attached to
a graph, so the graph reference is unavailable there).
CivitAI's PaidAccess cutover deprecated the availability=EarlyAccess and
earlyAccessEndsAt signals; gated versions now report availability=Public
with a paidAccess DTO that LoRA Manager previously ignored, so "Hide
Early Access Updates" missed paid/early-access models and downloads
failed with 401.
Parse and persist paidAccess from model-level, bulk, and by-hash
responses; treat timed paid gates as early access and permanent paid
versions as a distinct is_paid state; add a hide_paid_updates setting
with a "Paid" badge in the versions tab; warn before downloading gated
versions. Includes SQLite migration, i18n for all locales, and
backend/frontend tests.
Fix ~790 basedpyright errors across the test suite:
- Type stub subclasses of real production classes with super().__init__()
- Add missing generic type arguments and Dict[str, Any] annotations
- Add None guards before subscript/member access
- Adapt tests to production API changes (removed dead handlers,
PersistentModelCache.get_default, _i18n_filter_added location)
The compare API URL format compare/{local_hash}...main returns
status='ahead' when main is ahead of the local commit. The count is
in the ahead_by field, not behind_by. The old code only read behind_by
which is always 0 in this case, causing the UI to show 'Up to date'
when actually several commits behind.
Also handle status='diverged' (both sides have unique commits) by
reading ahead_by for the remote-ahead count.
Frontend adds a hash comparison fallback: if behind_by is 0 but local
and remote commit hashes differ, show 'Behind main' instead of the
incorrect 'Up to date'.
Tests: _AheadCompareDownloader and _DivergedCompareDownloader mocks
for the two status paths.
- Add POST /api/lm/switch-channel endpoint with git init / ZIP fallback
- Add _backup_git/_restore_git helpers with safe rollback
- Version-info endpoint now returns has_git flag for auto-detection
- Check-updates always returns releases (changelog) regardless of channel
- Nightly mode shows 'N commits behind main' with commit hash and date
- View on GitHub link points to /commits/main in nightly mode
- Channel toggle UI with pill-style buttons in update modal
- Confirmation dialog with Esc / backdrop-dismiss support
- Channel derived from has_git on every page load, no localStorage
- i18n: 11 new keys translated across 9 non-English locales
- CSS: unified card-style sections in _base.css
- Tests: 8 new tests covering switch-channel, nightly response, init_git_repo
- Handle compound node IDs (e.g. "252:0") from expanded group subgraphs
to fix 400 Bad Request on workflows with group nodes
- Frontend proactively pushes node data via afterConfigureGraph and
LiteGraph hooks (onNodeAdded/onNodeRemoved/graphChanged), eliminating
WebSocket round-trip latency for most "Send to Workflow" operations
- Add content-fingerprint dedup to skip duplicate register-nodes POSTs
- Fast-path cache returns immediately when tabs are registered (including
0-node registrations), avoiding unnecessary WS refresh cycles
- Distinguish "Empty Registry" from other errors in standalone UI toast
- Reduce WS refresh timeout 2s→0.5s, add cooldown and lock to prevent
concurrent refresh storms
- All [LM:Registry] logs at DEBUG level
- Replace hardcoded provider list with PROVIDER_PRESETS (OpenAI, Ollama,
DeepSeek, Groq, OpenRouter, OpenCode Go, Custom)
- Load model lists from models.dev/api.json catalog at startup
- Add Combobox vanilla JS component for model/base-URL selection
- Fetch local Ollama models via live API instead of catalog
- Hide API key values from frontend (boolean-only llm_api_key_set)
- Add i18n translations for all 9+ locales
- Update snapshot tests for new response fields
Cache corruption (NULL model_name/file_name from legacy DB rows or partial
writes) caused format_response to raise KeyError/AttributeError, failing the
entire /loras/list request and showing no models in the UI.
Fix across three layers:
- format_response (lora/checkpoint/embedding): replace direct dict[] access
with .get() fallbacks; return None for entries missing file_path
- handlers: filter None entries from list/excluded/fetch/duplicate/conflict
endpoints instead of letting them crash or appear as null in responses
- model_scanner: always use validate_batch repaired copies (previously
discarded when no invalid entries, leaving None values in raw_data)
- persistent_model_cache: add or-empty-string guards on read and write for
nullable TEXT columns (model_name, file_name, folder, base_model, etc.)
git clean -fd in _perform_git_update deleted untracked, non-ignored
directories (wildcards, stats, backups, civitai, caches, logs) during
portable-mode updates, since released tags do not list them in .gitignore.
Add -e excludes for all user-managed paths to both nightly and stable
update branches. Add regression tests for both paths.
Move NodeRegistry from a single global _nodes dict to a per-client
(_tab_nodes) structure so that multiple ComfyUI browser tabs no
longer overwrite each other's workflow node data during a
lora_registry_refresh cycle. The merged result is a union of all
known tabs' target nodes, eliminating the non-deterministic failure
where send-to-workflow could randomly target a tab lacking valid
targets.
- NodeRegistry.register_nodes(sid, nodes) replaces per-tab data
without affecting other tabs.
- NodeRegistry.get_merged_registry() returns the union across all
connected clients, together with tab_count / per-tab metadata.
- prepare_for_refresh() snapshots the current active sockets; caller
re-reads before merging so that newly-connected tabs are not pruned.
- workflow_registry.js sends api.clientId in the POST body so the
backend can identify which tab is registering.
