MEDIUM-tier v4 feature ("Which model was that?" answered three days
later): a button in Models & Pipeline renders the currently loaded
pipeline as a PNG -- every slot's node class and typed-in values, wired
inputs marked as wired rather than printed as a stale value, and the
host facts (torch/CUDA/GPU/attention) that decide whether the setup
reproduces elsewhere. Downloadable, copyable to clipboard, and the
report is embedded in the PNG's own tEXt chunk for later machine
reading.
core/settings_card.py is a hard cut of v4's version, not a verbatim
port: v4 spent most of its length (_OWNED_BY, _EDITOR_DEFAULTS,
_pass_rows, _sampling_sections) describing FunPackStudio and the
LTX-AV Scene Chain Sampler's own hardcoded knob tables -- neither node
exists in v5's module-driven pipeline, so there is nothing left to
describe there. What's genuinely generic (walking a slot's real
inputs, detecting a wired one via core.graph.is_link, the PNG
renderer) is what's kept, adapted to v5's slot shape ({id, node,
group, inputs}, a wire arriving as [source_id, index] rather than a
separate input_sources/wires lookup) and v5's existing core/sysinfo.py
for host facts (whose field names already matched v4's needs).
New POST /api/settings-card route: stateless like /api/pipeline, the
CLIENT sends its own live pipeline (window.PipelineState.slots()) since
that's the one copy that includes any unsaved edit; the server supplies
only what it alone knows (host facts) and the render.
Frontend: app/legacy/api.js's settingsCard stub (present since the
Phase A port, explicitly marked "not built in v5 yet") replaced with a
real POST+blob call; app/legacy/models.js's Export-settings modal
ported from v4 near-verbatim, reading PS.slots()/project name instead
of a project id the old per-project models config needed. Verified
live: real pipeline, real host facts (this Mac's actual Apple MPS/
Python/ComfyUI versions), wired inputs correctly marked.

ComfyUI-FunPack v5 — "Cunning Cranberry"
FunPack v4.0.0 is going to be the latest release of classic FunPack. Next update is another milestone update, or shall I say, a full rework.
Maintenance of current FunPack became a mess — forgetting to add or remove buttons from/to UI, finding functions that don't do anything but still present in the code absolutely randomly, trying to keep the UI neat while it has no strict boundaries on how it should look like, and of course — making it easy for users to understand how FunPack operates and how you can operate it — this is all time, money and token-consuming.
General idea behind the FunPack v5 rework is writing it from scratch, with a new architecture where a feature can't be forgotten, where a wire can't be missed, where one failing module never stops whole process from executing. Loaders and features would tell the UI by themselves what sorts of inputs they need and where to put it — and UI will compose them according to design guidelines it would have. Samplers would become independent from features — if a feature is available and enabled, sampler would call it. If it's not — it gets skipped and doesn't even appear in the UI so it won't confuse you.
Most of this comes from a FunUI backend draft that got shelved after understanding on how much time has to be invested into polishing it. Without a community support and wide usage it would become another dead project only one person in the world needs but no one else.
Come to think of it, FunPack already became something alike, with an exception — this project is more than alive, and while I can, I will support it.
Final goal is to make FunPack an ultimate answer for a novice's question "I don't know how to generate — what do I install and how do I start?" and for a professional's question "I need a UI with all the cutting edge techniques available on day 0 — which one?"
Preparation for the v5 had started.
FunPack v5.0 "Cunning Cranberry" — coming fall 2026.
This branch is a clean start. Classic FunPack lives on main.
