- Models page: "+ Import" chip and model files dropped on the grid open an import
window. model_kind.py tells a file's type (LoRA, checkpoint, VAE, text encoder,
diffusion model, ControlNet, embedding, CLIP Vision, upscaler) and base model from
its safetensors / GGUF header only; .ckpt/.pt are never opened. api/model_import.py
finds the dropped file in Downloads/Desktop (name, size, time) and moves it, or
takes an upload; checks it against Civitai and the scanned models; never replaces
a file (" (2)"). New files are scanned after.
- Model cards show the Civitai version name (metadata version_name).
- Settings page in tabs (Look, Models, Workflows, Prompts, Backup, Help); the
download folder is a choice of ready-made folders or typed by hand; default is now
by base model ({base}).
- The scanner's offline base model uses model_kind (LoRAs, Qwen, Wan, Chroma...).
- AD-019: no Civitai browser inside the plugin.

Settings -> Appearance -> Theme (and the ComfyUI setting
Anomalous.ModelBrowser.Theme, which replaces the Abyssal Scarlet switch)
picks Follow ComfyUI (default), Dark, Light or Abyssal Scarlet. Following
ComfyUI watches the dark-theme class ComfyUI sets on <html> for a dark
palette and repaints at once; an older Abyssal switch reads as Abyssal.
The light theme is html.amb-theme-light with its own --amb-* values. Hard
coded colors were turned into tokens whose dark values are the colors they
replace (checked: every stylesheet resolves to the same dark values):
rgba(var(--amb-ink-rgb), a) for tints, status shades, tooltip, float,
dialog, sunken, scrim and note tokens. Older rules and inline styles that
wrote a dark color now write var(--amb-lt-<role>, <that color>); the
--amb-lt-* tokens exist only in the light theme. Inside the plugin's
windows ComfyUI's palette variables (--bg-color, --fg-color ...) follow the
plugin's theme when the two differ. Surfaces over images stay dark, and the
image viewer gets the dark tokens back. The ready banner on a recipe reads
green instead of pink. Stylesheet cache versions are bumped.
Checked on a test ComfyUI in light and dark: home, models, gallery and its
viewer, workflows and a recipe's tabs, combos and a combo, prompts and the
docked drawer, voices, audio library, settings, scan, Model Check, current
node and its model picker, a model's detail with notes, share, save
recipe, update guide, versions, GPT-SoVITS settings and the prompt dialog;
light with a dark ComfyUI, and Abyssal Scarlet.

Opening the browser (the trigger, the action-bar button, the menu or its
shortcut) now follows the node selected on the canvas: a node with prompt
boxes and no model drop-down opens Prompt Studio, which targets that node;
any other node (a KSampler, a model loader) opens Current node; nothing
selected reopens the page used last. Settings -> Opening and window can turn
it off. Prompt Studio closing, the doctor banner and MCP actions still open
the browser as it was.
While the browser is open, the plain keys 1-9 go to the rail's pages from
the top. They are ignored in text fields, while an input method is
composing and while a dialog is open; ComfyUI binds no plain digits (W is
its Workflows key, so W/S were not used). The rail's tooltips name each
page with its number.
The rules are in shell_open_rules.js with tests/shell_open_rules.mjs.
Checked live on a test ComfyUI: a CLIP Text Encode opens Prompt Studio on
it, a KSampler opens Current node, 1/3/4/5/7/8 switch pages, digits typed
into the search box stay there, and the setting turns the rule off.

Settings -> Translation -> DeepL key saves the user's own DeepL API key;
translation then asks DeepL first, else Google's free endpoint, else
MyMemory. Saving a key translates one sentence and says whether it works or
why not (a refused key, a used-up month, busy). Only the key's tag changes,
so the page keeps its scroll place. The key stays on this computer: backups
leave it out like the Civitai key.
DeepL stopped taking the key as an auth_key parameter in 2025, so a key put
in config.json by hand no longer worked. It now goes in the Authorization
header with a JSON body; targets are ZH-HANS and EN-US. When DeepL fails,
the answer carries deepl_error beside the other provider's translation.
Checked live: a made-up key is refused by DeepL's server and the dialog
says so; removing it switches back to Google.

Export packs the stores (recipes, combos, materials, parameters, and
optionally ComfyUI's saved workflows), the plugin settings without the
Civitai key, and each model's user layer and own cover into one .zip to
keep on a cloud drive. Import lists what is new, the same or different
and the models it finds again (by SHA-256, else folder, path and size),
adds only what is missing by default, replaces differing files only on
request with this computer's going to the Recycle Bin first, merges a
model's name and notes field by field and puts the user's cover in
place of a Civitai one. Unsafe or foreign zips are refused. Both are
activity entries. tests/test_backup.py covers the rules; testing.md
names a single test file the way unittest finds it.

Settings > Model downloads can send Hugging Face downloads through
hf-mirror.com, on by default for the Chinese interface. The lookup and the
download use the chosen host whichever one the link names; when the mirror
sends a network outside China back to huggingface.co, the lookup follows
once for the size and SHA-256. A failed download from Hugging Face itself
suggests the mirror.

Model Check offers Download (and Download all) for a missing model whose
source names one exact file: Civitai by the workflow's fingerprint, or a
Civitai version / Hugging Face / GitHub file link the workflow carries.
A dialog shows each file's size, source and full destination, with the
models folder (when there are several) and subfolder changeable; Settings
> Model downloads sets the default: where the workflow says (the node
needs no change) or a set folder, {base} sorting by base model and
matching an existing folder in any spelling.
Downloads run one at a time into <file>.part, continue after an
interruption, are checked against the SHA-256 before they get their name,
never replace a file, and send the Civitai key to Civitai only. Finished
files are put into their nodes (one Ctrl+Z step each), scanned for info
and covers, and recorded in the activity log.
A change of fingerprints alone (after any scan) no longer takes a Ctrl+Z
step that seemed to do nothing.

- The bar starts with "Model Check:" so it is clear it comes from the browser.
- "Don't show again" turns the check on opening off and says where to turn it
back on; Settings → Workflows has the same switch (on by default), and turning
it on checks the open workflow right away. While off, the bar never shows.
- The tour's Model Check step mentions the button.

Folder management was a pop-up listing ComfyUI's raw folder names with
eye/cross emoji, "Category mode / Physical mode" radios and a Save and
reload button. It is now a view of the settings page with Back: grouping as
two plain choices (by model type, by folders on disk), the shown types
first with their usual names, folder names, a switch and up/down, then the
ones that are off, the rarely used ComfyUI folders folded away. Each change
is saved at once and the folder list reloads.

The manual was a long block of text that had fallen behind the window (it
still called recipes and materials "in testing") and was reachable only
from Settings. Pages explain themselves, Home lists what you can do and !
shows what changed, so Settings -> Help and feedback now offers the
interface tour, what's new, the full guide (the README on GitHub, at its
Chinese half in Chinese) and feedback. Removes ui_help.js, its strings and
styles, and the recipe "beta" notice code that no longer had an element.
The README's backup note no longer calls the features a test.

The prefilled issue looked like a form to fear: raw headings in two
languages, an HTML comment and a block of technical lines. Report a problem
and Suggest something now open a window with one text box (a sentence or
two, any language); Submit on GitHub opens the issue with that text, titled
from its first words, in the browser's language, and the environment folded
in <details> at the end when ticked (it can be looked at first). The issue
forms ask just what went wrong, with optional screenshots.

Home ends with "Found a problem, or have an idea?" and Settings has the
same under Help and feedback. Report a problem / Suggest something open a
new GitHub issue with headings and the environment written in (plugin and
ComfyUI versions, Python/PyTorch, GPU and memory, OS, browser, page and
language; never a path or ComfyUI's command line); Copy diagnostics copies
it for other channels (feedback.js). Bilingual issue forms for problems and
suggestions are added under .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.

Card thumbnails lived in ComfyUI's temp folder, which ComfyUI empties on
every start, so each first visit after a restart remade them all. They now
live in <user>/anomalous/cache/card_thumbnails (still capped at 256 MB).
Listing a model type queues the missing ones for one background thread;
the first screen of cards loads before the rest. A video cover gets a
first-frame poster (PyAV) and fetches nothing until it plays; hover-play
is now the default, as the setting already recommended.
The gear opens a settings page instead of a pop-up with a dialog inside:
look and language, model cards and memory with the thumbnail cache (size,
empty), folders, workflow fingerprints, opening mode and window, help.
Display preferences live behind owner.displayPrefs. Also removes a dead
overlay rule that shared the new page's id.
