3322f6f05e feat: standardise logging across all comfydv nodes (#5)
* chore: initialise BEACON framework with all bootstrap artefacts

- Problem statement, constitution, architecture doc, roadmap populated
- CHANGELOG.md created (Keep a Changelog); README expanded with
  What-is-this, Install, and Quickstart sections
- pyproject.toml gains [project.urls] (repository + documentation)
- beacon doctor: 32 pass, 2 pre-commit warns, 0 failures

* chore: Phase 1 — add NullHandler to package root, remove hardcoded setLevel

T001: logging.getLogger("comfydv").addHandler(NullHandler()) in __init__.py
T002: remove logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) from format_string.py
Also fix pyproject.toml TOML structure (project.urls was inside [project] block)

* test: failing tests for logging modernisation (T010-T through T030-T)

RED phase — 5 tests fail for the correct reasons before implementation:
T010-T: format_string produces stdout (print block)
T011-T: update_widget emits INFO records on hot path
T012-T: random_choice produces stdout (colorama/rich prints)
T020-T: load_node_state uses print() on error instead of logger.error
T021-T: circuit_breaker uses print() instead of logger

T001/T002/T030-T already green: NullHandler registered, setLevel removed.

* feat: standardise logging across all nodes (T010-I through T044)

GREEN phase — all 11 logging tests pass:

T010-I: Remove 8-line diagnostic print block from format_string()
T011-I: Downgrade all hot-path logger.info() calls to logger.debug();
        switch all logger calls to %-style formatting; remove rich import
T012-I: Replace colorama/termcolor/rich print calls in random_choice with
        logger.debug(); add logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
T020-I: Convert print() on load_node_state error to logger.error()
T021-I: Add logger to circuit_breaker; replace print() with logger.debug();
        fix logic so status=False triggers the interrupt (per BDD spec)
T040:   Remove colorama, rich, termcolor from pyproject.toml dependencies
T042:   ruff check + format clean
T044:   beacon doctor --strict passes (34/34)

Also adds ADR-001 and ADR-002 capturing the stdlib logging and NullHandler
decisions, linked from the logging-modernisation epic.

* chore: mark all 001-standardise-logging tasks complete in tasks.md

All [x] checkboxes flipped after 11/11 tests pass and beacon doctor --strict
reports 0 failures.

* chore: mark logging-modernisation epic success criteria complete

All success criteria verified: NullHandler added, setLevel removed, print()
calls converted, colorama/rich/termcolor removed from deps, zero stdout in
normal operation, errors surface at ERROR level, all tests pass.

* chore: commit spec artefacts and dependency lock for 001-standardise-logging

Includes spec.md, plan.md, research.md, BDD feature files, contracts, .beacon.toml
backlink, and uv.lock after removing colorama/rich/termcolor.

Problem Statement

Core Problem

ComfyUI ships no general-purpose string formatting, random-selection, or workflow-interruption primitives, forcing workflow creators to work around missing utilities with brittle workarounds or custom Python script nodes that can't be shared easily.

Target User

Who: ComfyUI power users building automated or parameterised image/video generation pipelines
Context: Mid-workflow, when they need to compose prompts from variables, randomly sample a style or subject, or halt a misbehaving pipeline without killing the ComfyUI process
Current pain: They either hard-code values in prompt strings, rely on community nodes with inconsistent APIs, or paste raw Python into script nodes — none of which is reusable, version-controlled, or easy to chain

Success Criteria

How will we know this is working? Make these measurable.

  • FormatString node accepts an arbitrary template (Python f-string or Jinja2) and dynamically exposes detected variables as typed inputs, with pass-through outputs for downstream chaining
  • RandomChoice node accepts an arbitrary number of typed inputs and returns one at random with reproducible seed control
  • CircuitBreaker node raises InterruptProcessingException to halt a run without crashing ComfyUI when status=False
  • All nodes install via the standard ComfyUI custom-node mechanism (drop into custom_nodes/, restart server)
  • Node tests pass outside ComfyUI (no ComfyUI import required in the test suite)
  • ruff, ty, and beacon doctor are all clean before any PR merges

Non-Goals

Explicitly naming what we are not solving prevents scope creep.

  1. NOT a general-purpose Python scripting node — template execution is sandboxed; arbitrary code is not supported
  2. NOT a ComfyUI Manager listing or PyPI release at this stage — distribution is manual install or git clone
  3. NOT cross-platform GPU tooling — nodes are CPU-only utilities; the ComfyUI host handles GPU concerns
  4. NOT a replacement for ComfyUI's native primitive nodes — these nodes fill the gaps, not the core

Why This Matters

ComfyUI workflows are increasingly used for production pipelines — batch prompt generation, style randomisation, asset naming — but the node library has always under-served text manipulation. A small, well-tested utility pack that installs in seconds and requires zero Python knowledge from the end user removes a class of frustrating workarounds and lets workflow creators focus on composition, not plumbing.

Constraints

  • Must load inside ComfyUI's existing import system — top-level __init__.py exposes NODE_CLASS_MAPPINGS and NODE_DISPLAY_NAME_MAPPINGS
  • Jinja2 rendering must use SandboxedEnvironment to prevent arbitrary code execution from user-supplied templates
  • Tests must not require a live ComfyUI process — comfy.* imports are guarded and mocked at test time
  • Python ≥ 3.10; managed via uv / .python-version
