* feat(inspect): bounded browser PNG reader matching the server's
The Inspect page will read a chosen file entirely in the browser, and the
record it shows must equal what Images shows for the same bytes. This adds
to web/js/png-metadata.js (loaded by the legacy pages as before, with
parsePngTextChunks unchanged):
- readPngMetadataFile(file, {signal, prefix, yieldControl, decompress}):
a port of utils/prompt_inspector.py's _png_metadata, _PngRecords,
_png_text, _inflate and _batch_normalized. It slices only chunk headers,
80-byte keyword prefixes and the retained prompt, workflow, parameters
and comfyassets_prompt_pairs records, CRC-checks what it keeps, applies
the same budgets (2 MiB shared role budget encoded and decoded, 4 MiB
workflow that becomes limited, 8 MiB and 4 MiB duplicate budgets, 4 MiB
duplicate decoded parameters, 10,000 chunks, the batch-index rule for
parameters copies) and compares duplicate chunks byte for byte. Every
range is checked against file.size before slicing and charged against a
19,794,389-byte ceiling, so a multi-gigabyte PNG costs only its metadata.
Compressed text inflates through DecompressionStream with one 256-byte
write in flight and the output capped at the record's allowance; an
AbortSignal rejects the read with an AbortError and leaves no unhandled
rejection; yieldControl runs about every 8 ms of work.
- classifyPrefix(bytes): png, jpeg, webp, iso-bmff, matroska, avi, asf or
null from the first 32 bytes.
- readImageHeader(file, kind): JPEG (SOFn walk as Pillow) and WebP (VP8,
VP8L, VP8X) dimensions from at most 64 KiB.
tests/test_local_inspect_parity.py drives tests/js/support/local-inspect-
oracle.mjs over the committed and test-time inspection parity corpus plus
compressed, oversized, Latin-1, batch-duplicate and all-four-record shapes,
and asserts records, record formats, dimensions and readability equal
read_inspection_file on each file; the two JPEG/WebP fixtures are checked
against Pillow. tests/js/png-local-reader.test.js pins each server rule,
the sparse 3 GiB read, the prefix reuse, inflation back-pressure and abort.
tests/fixtures/local-inspect/tiny.{jpg,webp} are CC0 FFmpeg test patterns.
* feat(inspect): bounded browser video tag readers
Add web/js/workspace/local-video.mjs: ISO-BMFF (MP4/MOV/M4V) and Matroska
(MKV/WebM) walkers that read only the container tags the server asks ffprobe
for, slicing box and element headers, carrier names and retained values within
the server's budgets and never a byte inside mdat or a Cluster; a port of
utils/video_metadata.select_video_carrier with the record budgets of
read_inspection_file; and a byte-exact json.loads/json.dumps round trip so
envelope objects reserialize as the server spells them.
Every naming rule mirrors ffprobe 9.0.2 on hand-built files: legacy ilst atoms,
mdta keys, joined repeats, data types, Matroska language and default handling,
and Tags behind a Cluster found only through a SeekHead.
Tests: node units over byte-exact container builders and the committed
fixtures; a Python parity test comparing the local carrier with the server's
selection from the same tag maps (mocked probe) and from the same files (real
ffprobe, including 1 MiB + 2.5 MiB per-key records); an ffprobe
characterization of the recorded fixture maps.
* feat(inspect): server-identical local projection and payload
Port utils/inspection_response.py to the browser: a strict parse with Python's
Decimal spelling, duplicate-key rejection, NaN/Infinity as null and integers
past 2^53-1 as text; the prompt, workflow and carrier projection with the
depth-64 and 20,000-node ceilings; _metadata; and the 8 MiB omission steps
(workflow graph, then prompt graph, then all raw) measured as UTF-8 bytes.
local-inspection.mjs builds the inspection_version 1 wire for one chosen File
from the Task 1 and Task 2 readers (observation selected-local-file, interim
unresolved roles, unavailable library), fits it to the response budget, and
exposes localFileAdapter for the shared controller, inspector and viewer:
handles are session-owned by a private token, so a tampered or hand-made
descriptor is rejected and blob: URLs are never resolved through the API
client. projectInspectionPayload admits selected-local-file only for a
local-file identity.
A Python oracle test compares projectMetadata with _metadata byte for byte over
the parity PNG corpus, the committed video fixtures and tag maps, 75 committed
adversarial record sets (projection-cases.json) and node-ceiling sets built at
test time.
* test(inspect): import oracle modules by file URL for Windows
The local-inspect oracle imported product modules with path.join(...), which
Node parses as a URL scheme on Windows (D:\... -> ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME),
failing every tests/test_local_inspect_parity.py oracle test on the Windows CI
job. Every dynamic import in tests/js/support now goes through moduleUrl, a
pathToFileURL wrapper, and a node unit proves the Windows form on any host and
scans the oracles so a path import cannot return.
* fix(inspect): read video tags as ffprobe reports them
Same bytes now give the server's record in five shapes where the local
reader was stricter or kept different tags (PR #277 final review I1, I2,
M1, M2, M4):
- Invalid UTF-8 in a tag value is replaced as ffprobe's default
string_validation=replace does (av_utf8_decode, one U+FFFD per failing
decode step), instead of failing the read. Key names and TagNames that
do not decode are no carrier and are skipped.
- An ilst item whose keys index is 0 or out of range is skipped, as
ffmpeg does, instead of failing the read.
- Only the first keys box is read, as ffmpeg does.
- A first per-key workflow over 4 MiB keeps its place in the carrier
choice as an unread marker, so the server's carrier (per-key, workflow
limited) is chosen; when the server's first probe would overflow, the
re-probe leaves it out and its own bound applies.
- An envelope integer of more than 4300 digits fails the Python json
port, so that envelope is skipped as CPython's json.loads skips it.
Each shape was checked against ffprobe 9.0.2 and read_inspection_file;
the real-ffprobe parity test now builds them, and a 600-case random-byte
comparison of the replacement against ffprobe matched.
* perf(inspect): measure the local response size natively and yield between steps
fitInspectionPayload counted the UTF-8 size of an 8-12 MB wire with a
per-character loop and ran every omission step on the main thread in one
turn (PR #277 final review M7). The size is now counted by TextEncoder
encodeInto through one bounded scratch buffer, and each re-measure
follows a yieldControl turn, with an abort signal checked between steps.
The fit is async; the fitted payload is the same as before.
* fix(inspect): hold video tags as ffmpeg's dictionary does, decode Mac Roman text
Three more same-bytes divergences, found while verifying the review
fixes against ffprobe 9.0.2 and read_inspection_file:
- ffmpeg keeps one tag per ASCII-folded name under the spelling set
last (ISO-BMFF joins the values with ";", Matroska keeps the last), so
PROMPT and Prompt are one record on the server; the local reader kept
both and failed the read as a duplicate. A legacy comment atom and a
later COMMENT key likewise leave no exact-case envelope.
- ffprobe's format_tags filter folds ASCII case only, so a name that is
"workflow" only under Unicode case rules is never reported; the local
reader took it.
- ISO-BMFF data types 0 and 3 are Mac Roman text to ffmpeg, written into
twice the input size (a long value is cut); the local reader decoded
type 0 as UTF-8 and skipped type 3.
The real-ffprobe parity test builds each shape.
* docs(testing): list the local Inspect divergences; raise touched coverage floors
TESTING.md now tracks the local Inspect (#249 PR L1) divergences that
remain after the review fixes, each checked on a host with ffprobe 9.0.2:
media kind by bytes versus extension (parity is for the same bytes with a
matching extension), JPEG dimensions past the 64 KiB header read, classic
QuickTime udta text atoms, raw versus escaped tag bounds, the 10,000
element ceiling, unknown EBML DocTypes, the JSON depth approximation and
the C _decimal assumption.
coverage:update raised the branch floors of the three local Inspect
modules this PR touches; the unrelated activity-scan raise it proposed is
left at main's values.
Viewer.js maintenance
ComfyUI serves the committed files in web/lib/viewerjs/. Node and npm are only
needed by maintainers and CI. Keep upstream files pristine; application behavior
belongs in web/js/, and theme overrides belong in comfyui-theme.css.
Install and verify
Use Node 24 or newer. From the repository root:
npm ci --prefix tools/vendor --ignore-scripts
npm run --prefix tools/vendor check
npm run --prefix tools/vendor test
node --test tests/js/*.test.js
npx --prefix tools/vendor playwright install chromium
npm run --prefix tools/vendor test:browser
On Linux, use playwright install --with-deps chromium when browser system
libraries are missing. The browser tests use synthetic images and mock the
ComfyUI API boundary; they run production viewer methods and the committed
Viewer.js JS/CSS, without a running ComfyUI instance.
check is read-only and fails if any JS, CSS, license, or provenance file differs
from the installed package. The manifest, lockfile, installed package, and asset
version banners must agree. The lockfile records npm's archive integrity;
provenance.json records the upstream source, package integrity, and SHA-256 of
each copied file. A normal npm ci --ignore-scripts verifies archive integrity.
Full-page workflows, frontend coverage gates, and required merge checks are
documented in TESTING.md. The viewerjs CI check runs both
the fixture tests above and the real-page workflows on every PR.
Update
npm run --prefix tools/vendor update
# Or select a specific stable version:
npm run --prefix tools/vendor update -- --version 1.15.2
The command installs an exact version with lifecycle scripts disabled and copies
dist/viewer.min.js, dist/viewer.min.css, and LICENSE. It writes deterministic
provenance with no timestamps. Repeat the checks above and commit the manifest,
lockfile, and all vendor files together. To regenerate files from the current
pin without changing versions, run npm run --prefix tools/vendor sync.
Automated update PRs
Update vendored Viewer.js checks npm's stable release daily at 07:30 UTC and
supports Actions → Update vendored Viewer.js → Run workflow, with an optional
version. It tests the generated update before opening deps/viewerjs-X.Y.Z.
Existing open or closed PRs for that release are left alone. A failed test does
not publish a branch or PR. Changes require review; the workflow never merges
or approves PRs.
The organization and repository must enable Actions → General → Workflow
permissions → Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests.
Keep default workflow permissions read-only. Only the update job requests
contents: write, pull-requests: write, and actions: write.
The workflow uses GITHUB_TOKEN; no personal token is needed. Because bot-token
pushes do not normally trigger other workflows, it explicitly dispatches the
read-only Viewer.js vendor and compatibility workflow on the update branch.
Both workflow files must be merged into the default branch before scheduling or
manual dispatch becomes available.
Compatibility checklist
Check gallery grid/list views, navigation across 100-image windows, metadata, slideshow/fullscreen, keyboard navigation, Escape and focus cleanup. Check the admin gallery/filmstrip and tag viewer. On touch devices, test long swipes, short drags, and pinch/rotate gestures. Confirm the ComfyUI theme remains usable.
The gallery keeps its bounded viewer and custom slideshow. Upstream navbar windowing is not a replacement for bounding the supplied image list: native slideshow playback can still preload every supplied original. Review new preloading defaults, gesture behavior, CSS changes, and any adapter use of Viewer.js internal methods before adopting another release.
Shared ComfyAssets test tooling
The exact toolkit commit archive in package.json / package-lock.json supplies
host orchestration and coverage helpers. comfyui-host.mjs is PromptManager's
configuration adapter; keep reusable lifecycle changes in the toolkit source.
The existing npm scripts remain the public maintainer entry points. See
TESTING.md for the managed real-host matrix and update policy.
Shared ComfyAssets browser controls
Prompt Manager (Classic) consumes the same pinned toolkit's browser controls.
The node identifier remains PromptManager; existing workflows, sockets, and
immediate result selection are preserved. PromptManager Text is unchanged.
Committed assets in web/js/shared/toolkit/ work without npm or KikoTools installed.
Maintain common controls in ComfyAssets Toolkit,
then update the exact archive pin and lockfile here. Regenerate using
npm run --prefix tools/vendor sync:toolkit; npm run --prefix tools/vendor check
verifies both Viewer.js and the toolkit without rewriting files. The toolkit
distribution includes its license, source history, archive integrity and per-file
hashes. Do not edit its copied files directly. Classic's controller and layout
remain in web/js/classic-node.js and web/js/classic-node.css.
Run the frontend coverage/browser suites and managed Classic/Nodes 2.0 matrix after updates. Shared modules participate in the frontend coverage gate. Pixaroma's reusable framework inspired this architecture; no Pixaroma code, styles or assets are included.
