Say that the pack depends on styleref.io

Browse Source 
'No dependencies' was a packaging claim dressed up as a general one. Nothing to
pip install is true; independent is not. These nodes are a client — every style
is fetched from the API and every prompt is compiled server-side, so no
connection means no styles, and an outage means errors rather than degraded
output. Someone deciding whether to install this deserves to read that in the
paragraph that currently says 'nothing to install', not infer it later.

Also names both hosts it can contact: the API, and the storage host serving
inspiration images when the Reference Images node runs. Those requests are
anonymous by design — the token never leaves the API.

Restart ComfyUI. Nothing to install: the pack declares no dependencies and
imports on the standard library alone. The Reference Images node reaches for
Pillow and numpy when it runs, and every ComfyUI install already ships those.
Look for `[StyleRef] v1.0.4 — 5 nodes registered` in the
server console at startup.
Restart ComfyUI. Nothing to install: the pack declares no Python dependencies

at startup.
**It does depend on styleref.io.** These nodes are a client, not a local
library: every style is fetched from the StyleRef API at
`https://styleref.io/api/v1`, and all prompt compilation happens there. So the
pack needs a working internet connection and the service to be up — offline, or
during an outage, the nodes fail with an error rather than degrading. Loaded
styles are cached for the session, so a graph mid-run keeps working, but the
first load of any style is a network call. `STYLEREF_API` repoints the client
if you run your own instance.
Two hosts, then, and no others: the API above, and — only when the Reference
Images node runs — the storage host serving that style's inspiration images.
Those image requests are deliberately anonymous: your token is never sent to a
host outside the API. Nothing here spends credits.
