1.5x left the Codex test picture's hand better but still soft; 2x gave
sharper fingers in the same seeds (about 105 s instead of 75 s on a 6 GB
card). The fix-hands way now enlarges to about 4.2 megapixels, never
smaller, at most 2x: reference_blocks.enlargement reads the picture's
size (add_nodes passes picture_size of its input copy). Tried through
AMB on an isolated ComfyUI: 2547x1656, no memory trouble, 2 clean hands
of 4.

The comfortable size was 4.2 megapixels on 12 GB, 2.1 on 6 GB: the fix-
hands way's 4-megapixel redraw got "ask the user whether to stop" though
a 6 GB RTX 4050 ran it (Anima, 10 steps) in about 100 s. It is now 8.4 on
12 GB (4.2 on 6 GB); the decode warning keeps its old line in its own
constant.

A block (detail, want hands) that takes a picture: enlarged 1.5x and
redrawn lightly by the canvas's sampler (denoise 0.4), then every hand
found by hand_yolov8 redrawn at guide 768, denoise 0.45 ("detailed
hand"), saved as hands_fixed. Tried on the Codex test picture on an RTX
4050: the hand pass alone fixed about half the seeds, enlarging first
about 3 in 4; the way built through AMB on an isolated ComfyUI gave 2-3
good hands of 4.
On an Anima model a variant adds the Anima Turbo LoRA (0.7) for 10 steps
at CFG 1, about 75 s; a variant's LoRA missing falls back to the plain
block with a word on what it would do. Its next step tells the AI to
make 4 tries, check the hands itself, retry at most twice, and let the
user pick in a zoomed panel. The Turbo LoRA joins the recommended models.

When a video's first frame could not be read (a broken file, no decoder)
the card's thumbnail route served the whole video as the picture. It now
gets the same SVG placeholder with its size as a picture with no card.

Codex's hand tests (2026-10-29): at denoise 0.55-0.75 the repainted hand
filled its whole mark and came out too big, at 0.4 it kept its size. The
crop-and-stitch block now repaints at 0.45 (the built-in one at 0.5), and
its next step and the inpaint note tell the AI to mark tightly, keep the
strength low, make 4 tries and let the user pick.
Slider and picks blocks take a zoom {x, y, w, h}: every picture shows
only that part, enlarged, from the picture itself. The checks of block
parts move to ai_panel_parts.py (ai_panels.py was at the 600-line line).

run_workflow's image filled a LoadImage with "name.png [output]"; once
ComfyUI's run history is gone, its newer frontend marks that value as a
missing file though LoadImage reads it (Codex found this on 2026-10-29).
An output picture is now copied into the input folder (content-named,
transparency kept) as the gallery's menu already does.
get_situation's canvas errors also carry what the page's missingMedia
store marks missing, so the AI sees the red error the user sees.

run_workflow's batch queued the same prompt N times when the sampler's
seed was held "fixed": ComfyUI ran it once and the user had one picture
to pick from. While a batch is queued a fixed seed counts up instead
(the native control moves it per prompt); afterwards the control and the
seed are as they were.

The run estimate followed each sampler's size but not what a SaveImage
finally gets: a 5120x3328 sample upscaled 4x saved 20480x13312 (324 MB)
without a word. A save past 64 megapixels now warns on the timeline and
in the AI's run answer, with the PNG size it will take.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A 20480x13312 upscale is past Pillow's pixel limit, so its card image
failed and the catch-all fallback served the 324 MB original as the
thumbnail: the gallery and the AI workbench decoded it every time.
- A picture past the limit is shrunk once by a child process
(huge_picture.py, low priority, one at a time) and cached; a card is
never a large original, one with no card image gets an SVG with its size.
- /anomalous/output_preview gives the viewers the picture or a cached
4096 px copy of a very large one; the viewer (moved to
ui_gallery_viewer.js), the image workbench's stage and the AI pages'
larger pictures use it, with a note and "Open the original".
- The listing carries each file's size (and big ones' pixel size); such a
card says "Very large".
- The browser-side PNG metadata read stops at the image data.

The panel's text for each of the 18 blocks (about, zh and en) is one short sentence; where it came from and how it was tried stay under Details, the AI's instructions (after, notes) unchanged.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The 18 blocks are grouped into 7 uses (a block's "job": repaint,
new_background, upscale, refine, follow, detail, process); a block that is
not its use's default has a "want" word (best, 2x, pose, ...).
add_nodes(use=…, want=…) has reference_blocks.pick choose the first by rank
this ComfyUI can run (packs and models present, not turned off), the block
taking a second picture when one is given; block= by name still works.
begin_task's directory is a line a use with its wants, the rest by what it
needs ("LanPaint: repaint best"), so it no longer grows with the blocks and
the word budget tiers are gone. Tried live: use=new_background with two
pictures built place_in_scene.

Its CheckpointLoaderSimple takes any SD 1.5 or SDXL family checkpoint; a model in separate UNET, CLIP and VAE files (Anima) does not fit it, which the block and the changelog now say instead of "another family too".
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
begin_task's text was at its 4000-character limit with every new block. The
directory now shortens in steps: every word while it fits (625 characters),
then the blocks' names with the missing ones grouped by what they need
("LanPaint: inpaint_lanpaint"), then names alone. With every pack in, the
names (about 400) leave begin_task near 3850 even with the stale tool list
line.

restyle reads a handed picture's outlines with ComfyUI's own Canny, holds
the layout with the union ControlNet (canny mode, 0.7 to 80% of the steps)
and redraws the whole picture in the prompt's new style. Tried on an RTX
4050 6 GB with SDXL (Illustrious) 832x1216: at denoise 0.8 it only got
lighter, at 1.0 it became a watercolour with the layout held, so 1.0 is
the default; about 41 s.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
refine_other_model redraws the made picture at denoise 0.4 with a second
checkpoint of its own (any family: its own CLIP and VAE, prompts copied from
the first, LoRAs added onto it with add_lora) and saves it beside it
(prefix refined), as the reference workflow's refiner keeps a loader and
LoRA stack apart. Tried on an RTX 4050 6 GB, Illustrious then NoobAI at
832x1216: about 66 s for the whole run, the composition kept, the style the
second model's.
A block node may be "like" a path ("$sampler.positive"): it takes the
settings of the node feeding it.

place_in_scene takes two pictures (add_nodes' new scene argument, $scene in
a block marked "scene"): the character is cut out (inspyrenet-rembg), the
place scaled and cropped to its size (GetImageSize, ImageScale), the
character pasted on (ImageCompositeMasked) and everything else redrawn at
denoise 0.5 with the edge grown 6 px, so shadow and ground meet it while
the place keeps its look. Tried on an RTX 4050 6 GB with SDXL (Illustrious)
832x1216: about 40 s.
The blocks' short words are shorter so begin_task stays under 4000
characters.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
change_scene cuts the character out of a handed picture (inspyrenet-rembg),
inverts it and redraws only the rest at denoise 1.0 from the prompt's new
scene; GrowMask lets 6 px of the edge be redrawn for the seam. Tried on an
RTX 4050 6 GB with SDXL (Illustrious) 832x1216: about 30 s, the character
kept, the forest replaced by a night street.
A picture handed to a block may be written "name.png [output]" as Load
Image shows it. Two block descriptions are shorter so begin_task stays
under 4000 characters.

- api/block_models.json: the 15 models the ways recommend, each with its
Hugging Face / Civitai / GitHub links, size, SHA256 (all checked against the
sites), licence and folder. A block's "models" names its recommended ones; the
Ways panel ticks those here (by name, or by size for a renamed copy) and
downloads a missing one in a click with model_download.downloadFrom, its hash
checked.
- A block's "tested": the card (RTX 4050 laptop, 6 GB), sizes and a whole run's
time, shown in the panel and told to the AI with the block (answer.tested).
- color_lineart gets an Anima variant with Anima's lineart LLLite.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- upscale_tile: the 1.25x upscale with a tile ControlNet holding the redraw
(the source's 0.6 to 80%), so it can redraw at 0.5; NoobAI's tile model for
NoobAI/Illustrious, the union one for SDXL, Anima's tile-repair LLLite on
Anima (slow on a 6 GB card, the AI is told to say so).
- color_lineart: a line drawing, inverted to white on black, steers a lineart
ControlNet; its lines are left as a preview.
- A union ControlNet gets SetUnionControlNetType for what it follows.
ControlNets not scanned yet take their base from their folder or name.
- MissingModel: a block's model not in ComfyUI's lists makes add_nodes read
them anew once (a model just downloaded into a subfolder), then try again.
- The upscales prefer the least enlarging model that reaches their size.
Live on the isolated 8199 ComfyUI: NoobAI tile upscale 77 s, Anima tile 710 s,
lineart colouring 34 s (the union model found after the lists were read anew).

OpenPose misread anime characters; DWPose (torch detector: the onnx one found
nobody with this onnxruntime-gpu) reads a single anime character down to face
and fingers. A crowded, heavily stylised picture can still come out empty, so
both control blocks keep their map as a PreviewImage the AI sees in
run_status's previews, and their next step says what to do when it is empty.
Live on the isolated 8199 ComfyUI: DWPose followed a hand-behind-head pose
(64 s); the three-elf picture stays unreadable for both readers.

279ad22 keys recovery by target, so a first try with missing or misnamed
arguments (a light model's {} call) recorded no target and a corrected retry
could never match it: the task stayed marked "a step failed". Such a failure is
now resolved by any later completed success of the same tool; a failure with a
target still needs that target's success.

A block's "variants" rebuild it for the canvas model's family
(reference_blocks.build, which also returns its roles and next step): on an
Anima model control_depth and control_pose patch the model with an Anima
ControlNet-LLLite instead of a ControlNet, and inpaint_crop_stitch adds Anima's
repaint LLLite on the crop; the AI still only names the block. Base packs are
checked before the page is asked which model the canvas has.
Live-tested on the isolated 8199 ComfyUI with an Anima model: repaint changed
the marked hand (43.9) and nothing outside (0.0); depth steers gently, so the
Anima next step says the prompt has to agree with the picture.

- tags_from_picture: WD14 tagger (the source's model and thresholds) on a
picture the user handed; run_status now carries what nodes showed as words
(texts: a tagger's tags), with a summary and next step for a run that made
words but no pictures.
- Optional nodes: a block node marked optional goes when its pack is missing,
and a link "match|decode" takes the first one there. The four upscales end in
KJNodes' ColorMatch (mkl, the source's) when it is installed; the panel says
"better with" it otherwise.
- LanPaint's next step keeps the prompt about the whole picture; Follow a pose
says OpenPose misreads anime (use control_depth), as the source's author did.
- The directory has a size cap: past it, block names alone, so collected ways
never make begin_task long; shorter headings and few-word lines.
Live-tested on the isolated 8199 ComfyUI: LanPaint (area changed 14.6, outside
0.0, 82 s), tiled 2x (167 s), depth ControlNet (follows the layout), OpenPose
(misreads an anime picture), background removal (8 s), tags (166 s with the
model download), upscale with ColorMatch (73 s).

Each block is now api/blocks/<name>.json (nodes, packs, models, the AI's words
and the panel's in both languages), so a way collected later is one more file.
The AI workbench's side column has a Ways view: blocks by job, what each does
and where it came from, greyed with the pack (opens ComfyUI-Manager) or model it
lacks, and a switch (user/anomalous/ai_blocks.json) that keeps it from the AI;
begin_task lists only the blocks on and runnable here, the rest in one line.
New blocks: upscale_iterative (Impact Pack), upscale_two_models ($loader role,
a second loader "like" it), remove_background (inspyrenet-rembg).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A block node can be "like" a role (takes its settings) or "replace" it (its
links, place and settings too; LanPaint's sampler for the KSampler). $save is
the output node the picture reaches, past a stitch. Upscale blocks take an
upscale model this ComfyUI has; control blocks a ControlNet whose base fits the
canvas's model, and the picture to follow copied into the input folder. The
directory is grouped by job, a few words a block, to keep begin_task short.
Drop-down choices are read in both forms of ComfyUI's node list.

A Flash exam showed the crop-and-stitch repaint painting a whole new
person into the hand: the context margin was 1.2 where the distilled
workflow used 2.0, and the sampler kept denoise 1 and the whole
picture's prompt. A block can now set settings on the canvas nodes it
finds (roles: the sampler's denoise 0.75, in the same Ctrl+Z step),
and the block's answer and the repaint note tell the AI to set the
prompt to what belongs in the area. Retake: a natural hand.

From a Flash run: after report(done) it showed a before and after and
asked whether the user is happy, and both went into a new task. A
panel, question or note within 5 minutes of the AI's own report(done)
now opens that task again (unless the user started or wrote to
another); a look still leaves it ended. "Just done" now means ended
by a report, not that the report is the last step.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
api/reference_blocks.py holds groups distilled from workflows that do
one job well: a repaint that crops around the mark, repaints at 1024
and stitches back (ComfyUI-Inpaint-CropAndStitch), the same with
built-in nodes only, and face and hand detailing (Impact Pack, the
detector models this ComfyUI has). begin_task hands the AI their
directory; add_nodes(block=...) builds one in one call. Its links name
roles web/modules/canvas_roles.js finds on the canvas by their sockets
(the sampler, its decode and save, what feeds an input upstream), so
canvas_wiring splices it into the workflow there; several samplers
need near_node_id, a missing pack names the pack and the stand-in.
The repaint note now points to the block. Checked on the test ComfyUI:
the repaint changed the marked area only, the detailer the face area.

From the user's first real run: the finished task showed as failed for
one wrong argument corrected on the next call, a look the AI took
right after report(done) made an empty one-step task, and a task the
user started 18 hours earlier still read "waiting for the AI" though
it had lapsed after 12 hours. Now only failures the AI did not get
past mark a task, a read-only call within 5 minutes of report(done)
goes into that task (it stays ended) unless the user started or wrote
to another, and a task the user starts waits until an AI takes it.

A value of the right type under an unknown name may mean something
else (set_prompt {style: "anime"} is no prompt), so the correction now
takes only the other names light models were seen to write in the tool
exams (name/workflow_name, file/filename/image_name, text/positive,
model/id, node/id); any other name is answered with what the tool takes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A call lacking its one needed argument but carrying one unknown
argument of that type is run with it (open_workflow {name} is
{workflow}), and the AI is told the right name. The timeline names
zoom_image steps; a test makes every tool have a name in both
languages. tool-exam.md records the second exam, all eight tasks
including the repaint one.

A question the user began to answer is never answered with the
recommended option on time-out; the AI is told they began an answer
and ends its turn. On the page, what was half typed in a question's
line survives the question being drawn again (another question came,
the AI read an answer), with the cursor; that question stays first in
the strip; a narrow window lights the stage tab instead of taking it
from under the user's typing; Enter that picks an input-method word no
longer sends a stage answer line.

Gemini 3.8 Flash took seven exam tasks through Antigravity (107 calls, 19
failed, every task done). Nearly all failures were a tool's first use:
empty or guessed arguments. So:
- An argument error lists what the tool takes ("set_prompt takes: prompt
(needed), role, node_id, mode"), and the next call is right.
- One argument name per thing: set_prompt's text is prompt (as in
run_workflow), open_workflow's name is workflow (as in run_workflow).
- A wait over 55 s waits 55 s instead of failing; search_models takes a
model type in the singular too.
- An unread reply older than two hours no longer draws a new chat's calls
into its old task (a two-day-old mark took the first exam task).
The exam doc gets the setup, the Antigravity command line and the results.

Antigravity, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code load tool descriptions on
demand themselves; looking tools up through Anomalous (tool_help, use_tool)
only doubled that: in one Gemini 3.8 Flash run 18 of 29 calls went to it,
while full-set chats had none. tool_help, use_tool, action_catalog.DAILY,
ai_gates.tool_set and the Gates row go.
An app still holding an older list is now told apart by the list it fetched
last (a fingerprint per app in anomalous/ai_tool_lists.json), so the note
under the task header also covers an Anomalous update.

- An AI app calling by an older tool list (tool_help or use_tool not offered,
use_tool for a tool offered directly, a tool the list lacks) is told so, and
the task header shows how to reconnect until the app fetches tools/list again.
- add_lora / set_model compare the base models on the model line
(model_advice.py; the page reports the line) and add base_model_note.
- get_model gives author_examples (sampler, steps, CFG, size, a LoRA's weight
from the Civitai record's example pictures) and the version name.
- run_workflow says ComfyUI's refusal as which node, what is wrong and the tool
that fixes it (run_refusal.py; mcp_run.js passes the refusal as data).
- Gates "When I don't answer": wait for me, or go with the recommendation once
the waiting time runs out (choices with a recommended option only), handed to
the AI in the same call and shown on the stage and under Decisions.
- A tool budget test (count, size, description length, required arguments) and
the exam tasks with their scorecard (docs/architecture/tool-exam.md,
tools/tool_exam.mjs). The tool set's text recommends Full for Antigravity.

The user took an option for something to select and then pressed "skip"
to confirm; boxes shown open read as fields to fill.
- Questions (stage panels, the strip over the message box): options are
buttons with an arrow under "One press sends it to the AI" and show the
pressed one at once; "Let the AI decide" moves to the question's top
right (the panel title for ask_user); a line of one's own is folded as
"None of these, I'll say it…". The Gates card folds its reason the same.
- A waiting task is one page: the sentence for the AI leads and sticks
under the task header while the page scrolls (the workbench measures the
header); "Say what to do" and the gallery are optional folds that say
how many pictures are in. The sentence has the AI do what the task says,
asking only when it says nothing. The Get started / Put ready tabs and
their words are gone.
- Gates window texts fixed (canvas covers building, lines are over the
message box, "Ask me" named as on the button); run_workflow waits up to
55 s by default, so a quick run comes back with its pictures.
- The UI map counts words the backend names (label_key) as used.

The user's marks are rough. propose_repaint_area takes the AI's area for
them (boxes or ellipses, grown and softened by pixels), draws both areas
tinted over the picture into the task's marks folder and shows them side
by side on a panel (block "area"): the AI's, the user's own, or marking
again, or words on what to change. The picked area is written into the
input folder like the user's own mask (ai_marks.write_inpaint, soft edges
kept) before the answer is recorded, so the AI reads inpaint_image and the
inpaint note with it. Building the repaint stays the AI's: the note names
the usual nodes, no template. Options Anomalous makes carry a page word
(label_key). The panel hint and guide say "Your call".

- The daily tool set now also offers tool_help and use_tool, and the
directory marks the tools reached that way; show_panel joins the daily
set. The "lazy" set is gone: a small model spent a third of its calls
looking tools up and never built what it planned.
- Gates window "Waiting for your answer" (1, 3 or 10 minutes): an open
question tells the AI to wait on with get_answers until then, and while
the user types (POST /anomalous/ai_tasks/{id}/typing) until a minute after
the last key. report and show_panel remind the AI to end each round with
ask_user; a question written in a note is pointed to ask_user.
- "Skip this one" is "Your call": the AI decides and does not ask again.
- ComfyUI's own `$$` widgets (the canvas image preview) are no longer
reported to the AI as the user's canvas change.

When the user wrote to an older task while the AI had moved on, the AI's
next call (once its own task ended or paused) started a new task, where
report(reply_to=...) could not find the message. Now an app with no open
task goes back to the newest task of its own holding a reply it has not
read, and opens it again; an open task it is busy with stays. Naming the
calling app moves to api/ai_callers.py to keep ai_tasks.py under its size.

A message or marks on a task the AI had ended stayed "done": no line to
copy for the AI showed, and the AI's next call started a new task where
report(reply_to=...) could not find the marks. Writing to the task now
clears `ended`, so the copy line shows and the AI goes on in it; an older
ended task with an unseen reply also offers the line.

The stylesheet and the no-cache rule used the fixed path
/extensions/Anomalous_Model_Browser/. A plugin unpacked from a GitHub ZIP
sits in Anomalous_Model_Browser-main: its look never loaded, the browser

top-bar entry showed although the floating button was chosen. Both now

- Marker: "make a repaint mask" becomes How to change it (leave it to the AI, only the
marked areas, the whole picture anew); the AI reads the choice first as the user's, the
timeline row says it, the repaint brush picks "only the marked areas".
- Task list: folded, it stays laid out out of sight and slides in at once from its button
or the page's left edge; redraws make anew only the rows that changed (sync_rows.js).
A picked task shows at once from the copy read before or read ahead on hover
(ai_task_cache.js), then what changed; activity entries follow instead of holding it up.
Stage pictures load as thumbnails first, the file itself only when shown larger.
- Header: "Own tab" is "AI edits a copy ▾", a two-way menu with what each means (kept open
across redraws), and "Show the copy".
- Materials: the Source list lights the hovered row and ticks the one shown (a later rule
had hidden both), tooltips only for cut names, arrows and Enter (ui_ai_facet_menu.js).
