extensive_testing round 3 found round 2's fix was itself incomplete: it
bounded row count and per-key value length, but not the JOINED row string
_rows_from_list builds from a dict with many keys. A funpack_list entry
like {"k1": "x"*400, ..., "k150": "x"*400} produced one row whose value had
no length cap of its own -- row count and per-key length both stayed under
every existing budget while the report JSON embedded in the PNG's tEXt
chunk (which scales 1:1 with it) reached 123MB, reproducing round 2's exact
number through a different attack shape, with zero truncation declared
anywhere on the resulting card.
Fixed by running the joined row string back through _short() (closing the
length gap) and capping how many keys get processed per row at 50 before
that join even happens (closing a related CPU-amplification gap: an absurd
key count still cost one f-string+join per key before any length cap could
apply). Added a test reproducing the exact many-key-row shape and asserting
on render_png's actual wall-clock time and output size, not just collect()'s
data.

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.
