feat/dynamic-combo-autogrow-parser
`proxy_node._parse_input_spec` previously had explicit branches only
for the primitive V3 input types (STRING / INT / FLOAT / BOOLEAN /
COMBO / IMAGE / VIDEO / AUDIO / MASK); every other `io_type` string —
including the two V3 dynamic input types `DYNAMIC_COMBO` and
`AUTOGROW` — fell through to the opaque `IO.Custom(io_type).Input`
bucket. Server-side runtime validation already worked (rules-
extraction at `_rules_from_input_spec` walks `__branches__` and
`__template__`), but on the frontend every Topaz / Magnific / Vidu /
Luma / Wan / Bria / Grok / ElevenLabs / HitPaw provider that declares
a `DynamicCombo` rendered as one opaque socket instead of the
branch-selector dropdown with per-branch sub-widgets the V3 IO is
designed to produce.
Refactor the parser so the construction logic is shared between two
entry points (top-level descriptor inputs use the 2-tuple
`[io_type, options]` form; DynamicCombo branch sub-inputs use the
3-tuple `[name, io_type, options]` form) and add real handlers for
both dynamic types:
* `_parse_input_spec(name, spec, optional)` — top-level entry, same
signature as before. Strips the `[io_type, options]` head and
delegates.
* `_parse_named_input_spec(spec, optional)` — branch-sub-input entry.
Strips the leading name and delegates.
* `_build_input(name, io_type, options, optional)` — shared
constructor dispatch. All primitive io_types route through the same
bag of kwargs; the new `DYNAMIC_COMBO` branch builds
`IO.DynamicCombo.Input(name, options=[IO.DynamicCombo.Option(key,
inputs=[...]), ...])` by recursing into `_parse_named_input_spec`
for each branch sub-input; the new `AUTOGROW` branch builds
`IO.Autogrow.Input(name, template=IO.Autogrow.TemplatePrefix(...))`
(or `TemplateNames`) by recursing into `_parse_input_spec` for the
template entry.
The flattened RNP wire dialect for `AUTOGROW` (`template` is a flat
`[io_type, options]` entry directly, with `prefix` / `min` / `max` or
`names` / `min` as siblings of `template`) is what every server
provider already emits (e.g. `grok.py:_grok_v2_model_subinputs`); the
parser mirrors that shape rather than the upstream
`Autogrow.Input.as_dict` nested form.
Guard rails:
* Empty branch input lists are valid (Bria moderation's `"false"`
branch carries `"inputs": []`).
* The branch selector's id is the outer input id (`"moderation"`,
`"inputs"`, etc.) — not always `"model"`.
* Branch sub-inputs are treated as required at schema-construction
time; the wire dialect doesn't express per-branch optionality, and
server-side `__branches__` enforcement covers runtime presence.
* AUTOGROW template inputs that are themselves dynamic
(`DynamicCombo.Input` / `Autogrow.Input`) are rejected at parse
time, mirroring the upstream `_AutogrowTemplate.__init__` assert.
* Malformed `DYNAMIC_COMBO` / `AUTOGROW` specs return `None` (caller
logs + skips the descriptor) instead of degrading to a single
opaque socket — the opaque fallthrough is reserved for genuinely
unknown io_type strings, not for known-but-broken dynamic specs.
* `advanced` only routes to primitive `WidgetInput` constructors; the
dynamic constructors don't accept it.
No capability gating in this PR. The two dynamic io_type strings are
already V3-canonical so a legacy client without the parser fix sees
the same opaque-socket degradation it sees today (just rendered as
`Custom("DYNAMIC_COMBO")` instead of the real DynamicCombo input).
Adding `Capability.DYNAMIC_COMBO` / `Capability.AUTOGROW` would
require pairing the cap with real descriptor-load-time enforcement
(server-side filtering of `/object_info` or client-side rejection
based on `required_capabilities`); neither exists yet, so adding
caps now would just be inert metadata. The cap pair is the right
follow-up alongside the enforcement plumbing.
Smoke test at `notes/run_dynamic_combo_parser.py` — 8 checks covering
Bria's 2-branch DynamicCombo (with empty branch), Grok V2's 3-branch
DynamicCombo with nested AUTOGROW(IMAGE), ElevenLabs' branch mixing
custom-IO (voiceN) + primitive STRING, a synthetic nested
DynamicCombo-in-DynamicCombo (defensive recursion coverage), the
malformed-spec rejection path, a regression check that
`_collect_local_validate` output is byte-identical before and after,
the AUTOGROW-rejects-dynamic-template assertion, and a source-level
check that the new helpers + branches exist.

comfy-remote-nodes
ComfyUI custom-node package that fetches node descriptors from an RNP/1 (Remote Node Protocol v1) server and exposes them as native V3 nodes inside ComfyUI.
The reference server lives at
Comfy-Org/comfy-rnp-server
(private). This client is intentionally provider-agnostic: any server
that speaks RNP/1 can publish nodes through it.
Install
Clone into your ComfyUI custom_nodes/ directory:
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/Comfy-Org/comfy-remote-nodes.git
(The directory name on disk doesn't matter — ComfyUI loads the package
via spec_from_file_location, so comfy-remote-nodes/ is fine.)
Configure
Point the extension at one RNP server URL via env var before starting ComfyUI:
export RNP_SERVER_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9190
python main.py
If RNP_SERVER_URL is unset, the extension registers zero nodes and
logs a single line — ComfyUI starts normally with no remote nodes.
What works today
- Manifest + capability handshake
object_infofetch and dynamic V3 class generation (with ETag conditional GETs)- Sync
executeand asyncexecute_async+ poll/cancel - Image / mask / audio / video envelope encode + decode
- Presigned upload helper for >8 MiB inputs
- Tier 3 (recent):
TASK_LOSTdetection with idempotent resubmission — survives an RNP server restart mid-task without losing the workflowSERVER_BUSY/MAINTENANCE503 envelopes treated as rate limits withRetry-Afterhonoring and friendly per-second progress text ("Server busy, retrying in 30s...")- Out-of-band
url_fetchfor URI-only output envelopes, driven by the descriptor'sremote.url_fetchpolicy - Per-poll auth refresh so long-running tasks can rotate tokens
What does not (yet)
validate_inputs/fingerprint_inputs/check_lazy_status— the server returns501 NOT_IMPLEMENTED; the client falls through to ComfyUI's defaults- Multi-server config file (
comfy_remote_nodes.yamlor similar) — today's setup is one server per ComfyUI process via env var - Streaming execute (server-sent events for incremental previews)
