 ## 4) Schema reference — editing `api_schemas.json`
 
+### 4.0 Schema file — example and user copy
+
+`front_end/api_schemas.example.json` is always present in the node package and serves as the built-in fallback. It contains the pre-configured provider/service definitions shipped with the node.
+
+The node and the front-end both look for `front_end/api_schemas.json` first. If that file does not exist, they automatically fall back to `api_schemas.example.json`. This means the node works out of the box with no schema setup required.
+
+**To create your own custom schema:**
+
+1. Copy `front_end/api_schemas.example.json` to `front_end/api_schemas.json`.
+2. Edit `front_end/api_schemas.json` freely — add, remove, or modify provider/service entries as described in the sections below.
+3. Once `front_end/api_schemas.json` exists, the node and front-end use it exclusively. The example file is no longer consulted.
+
+`api_schemas.example.json` is never overwritten or modified by the node — it always remains available as a reference and fallback.
+
+After editing your schema, use the **↺ Reload API Schema** button on the node to apply changes immediately without restarting ComfyUI. The same fallback logic applies on reload: if your `api_schemas.json` has been deleted or moved, the node silently falls back to the example file.
