Workflow Note

The card that makes a shared workflow self-explanatory: a big title, a Markdown how-to, the models it needs with Download buttons and the folder each one goes in, the node packs it depends on, and the author's links. Every model file and node pack on the card is checked against this install and marked installed or missing, so whoever opens the workflow sees exactly what is left to set up before the first run.

Nothing runs: the node has no outputs, so ComfyUI never executes it.

Editing

• Click the ✎ in the card's corner (or right-click the node → Edit Workflow Note). The dialog has a form; JSON switches to the raw card text for copy/paste between workflows. Ctrl+Enter saves, Esc cancels (it asks first if you changed anything).
• Title / Subtitle / Author make the banner. Layout → Banner shows only that top block (the title, plus the subtitle and author if you filled them in), so the same node doubles as a label for a stage or column.
• Accent color tints the banner bar, dots and buttons; empty keeps the pack teal. It takes a six-digit hex such as #00b4aa.
• How-to is Markdown-lite: #/##/### headings, **bold**, *italic*, `code`, [links](https://…), - and 1. lists, --- rules, fenced code. Only http(s) links become clickable.

Models

Each row is a file, the model folder it belongs in, an optional size, a download URL, and an optional note that shows in grey under the file name. Rows group under a 📂 ComfyUI/models/<folder> heading so the card reads like the install tree — the "where do I put this" question is answered on the same line as the button.

• The dot beside a row is the check: teal found, red missing, grey not checked (no folder set, or this install has no such folder).
• A found file swaps its Download button for an ✓ installed pill; hovering the pill shows where it was found. A file that lives in a subfolder still counts. When a loader in the workflow still asks for the bare file name, which ComfyUI cannot find there (it marks that loader red), the row says where the file is instead (in LTXV 2.3/) and Use it points those loaders at the copy it found. The check only asks the ComfyUI server for its own model lists.
• ↻ check files re-runs the check after you move files in. ComfyUI's own R refresh triggers it as well.
• Folder input is for a sample image or clip shipped with the workflow: it is looked for in ComfyUI/input.
• Clicking a file name copies it — handy for searching a loader's picker.

The Download button is a plain link to the file's page or direct URL in a new tab; the browser saves it wherever downloads go, and the folder line says where to move it.

Node packs

A row names a pack, links to it, and names one probe node class from that pack (any node it registers, e.g. AUSBOSS_NODES_LoraLoader). If that class is registered on this install the pack shows ✓ installed; otherwise it is marked missing with the link to get it. Detect from this workflow in the editor adds a row for each custom pack the workflow uses, subgraphs included. It never removes a row, so check the list after big changes.

Links

Chips for your pages — GitHub, Civitai, YouTube, Discord — whatever you want the person who downloaded the workflow to find.

Notes and limitations

• The card grows to show all of its text, and the node can't be dragged shorter than that. It never shrinks by itself, so a note you made taller keeps its space.
• The card is stored as JSON in the node's one note widget, so save/load, undo, copy/paste and the API format all carry it. A card pasted from another workflow arrives intact.
• Every string on a downloaded card is someone else's text: it is rendered as text, never as HTML, and only http(s) URLs become buttons or links.
• The file check is a lookup against ComfyUI's model lists, not a hash: a same-named file of a different version passes.
• Sizes are what the author typed; the node does not fetch them.
