The standalone empty state showed the folder_paths keys but not where to
put them, and its Open Settings button led to a modal that cannot edit
primary folder paths. Now the page shows the real settings.json path and
an Open Settings Folder button backed by the existing open-location API.
Also stop open_settings_location from claiming success on headless Linux
sessions: with no DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY, xdg-open cannot work, so the
handler now returns clipboard mode and the browser copies/shows the path
instead.
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.
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.
