ComfyUI sends no cache header for .mjs, so after a Manager update a browser
could reuse old shared modules while loading the new entry scripts. The new
entries then imported functions the old modules lack and about a third of the
pack stopped loading.
The pack now serves its .mjs files with Cache-Control: no-cache, and a small
entry (js/cache_guard) refreshes the stored copies and asks for a reload when
a tab runs older files than the installed version. It replaces the old
stale-cache toast in the appearance entry.
Four extensions each carried their own copy of the toast-or-console
fallback, transform upload failures used a blocking alert(), and a
failed video drop onto Load Video only logged to the console. They all
go through showToast now, so every message looks and behaves the same.
chainCallback keeps the earlier handler's return value, so the badge's
"consumed" answer never reached LiteGraph and every click on "?" also
started a node drag. chainHandler reports a click as consumed when any
handler in the chain did. Run Timer, which has no title bar for the
badge, now opens the same card from an "About this node" menu item.
- New nodes: Image Resize plus the Utility group (Text, Integer, Float,
Show Text, Math Expression, Select Every Nth, Split Batch, Merge
Batches, Free Memory) - the dependency-free gaps that let shared
workflows drop heavy packs.
- Replace with AusBoss nodes (prototype): preview-then-confirm graph
rewrite swapping known third-party nodes for pack equivalents, with a
tested translation map, per-node opt-out, and refuse-with-reason for
nodes the pack cannot stand in for.
- Load Video: single-frame FRAME picker, an honest "what will load"
label from the probed source rate, drop-a-video-to-restore. Save
Video: format-aware widgets and a file_path output. Stitch Inpaint
gained a blend_mask output, Select Frame negative from-the-end
indexing, Image Size a batch count - all appended, saved workflows
load unchanged.
- LoRA Loader: drag-to-reorder rows, hover thumbnails on rows, file
size and date in the info card.
- Appearance: flagship scheme deepened to slate-teal; the retired
bright-teal pair upgrades automatically via LEGACY_SCHEME_PAIRS.
Optional queue-completion chime, off by default.
- Image Resize invariant: pixels are only invented on an explicit
width+height pad request - scale-derived modes resolve divisible_by
snaps with a sub-half-step resize, never bars.
- Docs refreshed for six stale pages, stale text and metadata fixed
across the pack, the panel-height rule codified in AGENTS.md and the
brand skill, and ausboss_node_tour.json added - a model-free example
exercising 17 node types in one graph.
Validated: scripts/validate_nodes.py (24 files), 300 JS tests, all
Python suites under the ComfyUI embedded interpreter.
The teal pair the video nodes hard-painted becomes the AusBoss scheme row
and the pack-wide default; Load/Save Video stop painting themselves so the
appearance setting and per-node menu govern every node the same way. Every
AusBoss node also gets a quiet ? badge whose card is built from the node's
own DESCRIPTION and tooltips.
Frame Chooser, mostly. A pause did not survive a workflow load: LiteGraph
clears a graph by removing every node, so undo, a tab switch, Clear
Workflow and opening another file all fired the teardown a deleted node
uses to release its pause, and killed a run that was still going. That
now only fires for a real deletion. Answering "keep all" wrote the batch
out as 1,2,...,N into pick_list, so the next run dropped whatever the
enumeration did not reach or failed outright on a shorter clip; it
writes the empty answer it was given. And pick_list is only written back
under "keep last selection" - it pre-answers the node, so filling it in
automatically meant a chooser left at the default paused exactly once.
Refine Mask: smooth applies only the change it made to the jaggy edge
rather than binarizing everything, so an already-soft matte keeps its
alpha (binary masks stay bit-identical), and blur now reaches the
matting solve instead of being thresholded back out of the trimap.
Frame Interpolate's copy path honours batch_size; it gathered every
copied frame at once, which on a long clip at an integer multiple was a
multi-gigabyte allocation on the frames device that no setting bounded.
Subgraph execution ids are resolved by walking the chain instead of
stripping the prefix, which could match an unrelated node with the same
number. Status and runtime badges appear inside subgraphs again, and a
subgraph pause renders on the node that actually paused.
Also: the Custom colour scheme no longer strips every node's colour when
its stored colour is unreadable; Drop Shadow and Pad Image name their
own widget for an unreadable colour instead of blaming Transform; a
non-ASCII token and a non-object JSON body answer 400 rather than
throwing a 500 and stranding the pause; pick_list rejects Unicode
digits, which used to raise during validation or silently read as a
frame nobody typed.
Tooling: validate_nodes parses NODE_MODULES rather than matching it
anywhere in the text, and an unregistered module is an error - it used
to exit 0 printing nothing. It also refuses mapping keys declared
outside nodes/, which is how the registry fixtures came to be advertised
to ComfyUI-Manager as installable nodes; they are .py.txt now. And the
video test no longer leaves ComfyUI on sys.path, which was flipping
every fail-soft seam for whatever ran next.
The version-mismatch probe only wrote to the console, where nobody looks.
Route it through app.extensionManager.toast (the workspace store's toast
store, verified against the installed frontend) with the hard-refresh
instruction, keeping the console.warn as the fallback and never throwing.
