Every block in api/blocks names what it gives a block after it ("gives": its sampler and its
output node; {} for one that changes the step it is put on) and its own model loader
("own_model"). api/block_chain.py builds a list of steps on a new tab: the picture first, each
next block anchored to what the step before gave, by near_node_id and a new page-only
save_node_id (canvas_roles.js findRoles pins the output node), so a canvas with several
samplers and outputs is no guess. add_nodes' answer names the block it built.
Redraw with another model and face/hand detailing now take the step before's picture
("$save.images") instead of the sampler's decode, which after an enlargement is the older
picture. The two-model routes are built as two-step chains; routes.json no longer names the
loaders.
Checked through the real page on the test ComfyUI: the Tile route on two Anima models (base on
Harem 1.5, Tile redraw on Kirazuri v4, from the base's picture and prompts), then face and hand
detailing after it took the Tile step's colour-matched picture.

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).

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.

- 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.

- 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).
