Installation
1. ComfyUI
Install ComfyUI using the instructions for your particular operating system.
2. Use Ollama
If you'd like to run with a local LLM, you can use Ollama and install a model like llama3.
-
Download and install Ollama from their website: https://ollama.com
-
Download a model by running
ollama run <model>. For example:ollama run llama3 -
You now have ollama available to you. To use it, follow the instructions in this YouTube video: https://youtu.be/jIq_TL5xmX0?si=0i-myC6tAqG8qbxR
3. Add API Keys to your environment
For advanced features, it's recommended to use a more powerful model. These are available from the providers listed bellow, and will require API keys.
Create a .env file
- In the base comfyUI folder, create a file called
.envif it doesn't already exist - Add an API key for each of the services you require. You will see a list of the appropriate keys below:
Note: Most nodes will work fine with just the OPENAI_API_KEY, so at least make sure you have that one.

4. Install Griptape-ComfyUI
There are two methods for installing the Griptape-ComfyUI repository. You can either download or git clone this repository inside the ComfyUI/custom_nodes, or use the ComfyUI Manager.
-
Option A - ComfyUI Manager (Recommended)
- Install ComfyUI Manager by following the installation instructions.
- Click Manager in ComfyUI to bring up the ComfyUI Manager
- Search for "Griptape"
- Find the ComfyUI-Griptape repo.
- Click INSTALL
- Follow the rest of the instructions.
-
Option B - Git Clone
-
Open a terminal and input the following commands:
cd /path/to/comfyUI cd custom_nodes git clone https://github.com/griptape-ai/ComfyUI-Griptape
-
5. Make sure libraries are loaded
Libraries should be installed automatically, but if you're having trouble, hopefully this can help.
There are certain libraries required for Griptape nodes that are called out in the requirements.txt file.
griptape[all]
python-dotenv
These should get installed automatically if you used the ComfyUI Manager installation method. However, if you're running into issues, please install them yourself either using pip or poetry, depending on your installation method.
-
Option A - pip
pip install "griptape[all]" python-dotenv -
Option B - poetry
poetry add "griptape[all]" python-dotenv
6. Restart ComfyUI
Now if you restart comfyUI, you should see the Griptape menu when you click with the Right Mouse button.
If you don't see the menu, please come to our Discord and let us know what kind of errors you're getting - we would like to resolve them as soon as possible!
Troubleshooting
Torch issues
Griptape does install the torch requirement. Sometimes this may cause problems with ComfyUI where it grabs the wrong version of torch, especially if you're on Nvidia. As per the ComfyUI docs, you may need to unintall and re-install torch.
pip uninstall torch
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
Griptape Not Updating
Sometimes you'll find that the Griptape library didn't get updated properly. This seems to be especially happening when using the ComfyUI Manager. You might see an error like:
ImportError: cannot import name 'OllamaPromptDriver' from 'griptape.drivers' (C:\Users\evkou\Documents\Sci_Arc\Sci_Arc_Studio\ComfyUi\ComfyUI_windows_portable\python_embeded\Lib\site-packages\griptape\drivers\__init__.py)
To resolve this, you must make sure Griptape is running with the appropriate version. Things to try:
- Update again via the ComfyUI Manager
- Uninstall & Re-install the Griptape nodes via the ComfyUI Manager
- In the terminal, go to your ComfyUI directory and type:
python -m pip install griptape -U - Reach out on Discord and ask for help.
API Keys
Griptape will use API keys set as environment variables. Please ensure you have your keys set in a .env file located in the base directory of comfyUI.
For example, my .env is located here in Windows:
C:\Users\jason\Documents\GitHub\ComfyUI\.env
It's located here in MacOS:
/Users/jason/Documents/GitHub/ComfyUI/.env
If you ever need to change your API keys, go ahead and update that file with the proper key and restart ComfyUI.
StabilityMatrix
If you are using StabilityMatrix to run ComfyUI, you may find that after you install Griptape you get an error like the following:

To resolve this, you'll need to update your torch installation. Follow these steps:
- Click on Packages to go back to your list of installed Packages.
- In the ComfyUI card, click the vertical
...menu. - Choose Python Packages to bring up your list of Python Packages.
- In the list of Python Packages, search for
torchto filter the list. - Select torch and click the
-button to uninstalltorch. - When prompted, click Uninstall
- Click the
+button to install a new package. - Enter the list of packages:
torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121 - Click OK.
- Wait for the install to complete.
- Click Close.
- Launch ComfyUI again.
