Five review findings of the P2 phase, each fixed at its root: 1. (medium) The P2.6 guard could not see an undeclared third-party import: the closure's imports were filtered through a hard-coded 10-name map, so every module outside it was dropped silently (a module-level `import av` in a copy of the repo still gave "1 passed"). The map is now a *rename* map (cv2 -> opencv-python, PIL -> Pillow, yaml -> pyyaml); every other module is mapped to its own name, so an unknown module shows up as an undeclared dependency. The guard is split by import time: every third-party module imported at import time must be a declared distribution, every lazy (function-level) one must be allowlisted with a reason (dlib, gdown, mc, wandb - all unreachable from the node). 2. (low) The P2.1 (c) progression test was vacuous: it returned before its assertions and probed a second, top-level copy of the vendored tree (`sys.path.insert(modules/deps)`). It now imports the packaged architecture, asserts that FeedForward / AdaLayerNorm come from the vendored _diffusers_compat and that no top-level `basicsr` shadows an installed one. 3. (low) Two swallow-and-stub fallbacks remained in the vendored tree (facelib/detection, facelib/parsing - their stubs called an unimported `urlparse` and would have raised NameError). Both now import the vendored symbol directly; a guard forbids a fallback stub in the vendored tree. 4. (low) `basicsr/utils/file_client.py` still appended to `sys.path` (the optional `sys_path` of MemcachedBackend), which the plan's §3 rule forbids anywhere in the package. The mutation and the parameter are gone and guard (d) now covers the whole package (the vendored tree included). 5. (low) The unreachable body of `KEEPFaceProcessor.process_video` still called the deleted VideoReader / VideoWriter. The 141 dead lines are removed; an AST guard keeps the references out. Found while fixing the findings: the CI job did not install `requests`, which the vendored `basicsr/utils/download_util.py` imports at module level (P2.6 added it to requirements.txt but not to the workflow) - a clean CI runner died with "No module named 'requests'". The install list is now completed and a test derives it from requirements.txt. Gate: pytest -m "unit or mock_integration" -> 109 passed, 1 skipped, 4 xfailed; plan's local gate (+ headless) -> 109 passed, 3 skipped, 4 xfailed; tools/scan_compat.py -> finding_count 0 (exit 0); ruff check . -> All checks passed. A mutation check re-introduces six defects into a copy of the repository: the matching guard fails in 6/6 cases.

About ComfyUI-KEEP
This repository provides custom nodes for ComfyUI that implement the KEEP algorithm for face super-resolution. KEEP is designed for robust video face super-resolution, and these nodes adapt its capabilities for use within the ComfyUI framework.
You can enhance faces in:
- Single images
- Sequences of images (video frames)
The nodes leverage the core architecture and pre-trained models from the original KEEP project.
Features
- High-Quality Face Restoration: Utilizes the core KEEP model for detailed face enhancement.
- Flexible Upscaling Integration:
- Connect any ComfyUI-compatible upscale model (from
Upscale Model Loader) for both background and face upscaling. - Use different models for background and face enhancement within the same workflow.
- Full control over the final output size with a
final_upscale_factor.
- Connect any ComfyUI-compatible upscale model (from
- Single Image & Sequence Processing: Enhance faces in individual images or entire video frame sequences.
- Choice of Detection Models: Supports various face detection backbones (RetinaFace, YOLOv5).
Nodes
This package includes the following custom nodes:
1. Load KEEP Models
Loads the core KEEP model and face detection models. It now accepts UPSCALE_MODEL inputs, allowing you to connect any upscaler loaded via a standard Upscale Model Loader.
model: Choose between "KEEP" (general) or "Asian".detection_model: Face detection model to use (e.g.,retinaface_resnet50).bg_upscale_model(optional): Connect anUPSCALE_MODELhere to enhance the background.face_upscale_model(optional): Connect anUPSCALE_MODELhere to further enhance the quality of the restored face patch.
2. KEEP Single Image
Restores and enhances faces in a single input image.
image: The input image.keep_model: The model pack from theLoad KEEP Modelsnode.final_upscale_factor: The final scaling factor for the output image. For example, if your BG upscale model is 4x but you only want a 2x final output, set this to2.0. If you want the original size, set this to1.0.has_aligned_face: Set toTrueif the input is an already aligned 512x512 face.only_center_face: If multiple faces are detected, process only the one closest to the center.draw_bounding_box: Draws a box around the detected face.
3. KEEP Image Sequence
Restores and enhances faces in a sequence of input images (e.g., frames from a video).
images: A batch of images representing video frames.keep_model: The model pack from theLoad KEEP Modelsnode.final_upscale_factor: The final scaling factor for the output frames.max_clip_length: Maximum number of frames to process in one go by the KEEP network (for VRAM management).
Installation
-
Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/wildminder/ComfyUI-KEEP.gitPlace it into your
ComfyUI/custom_nodes/directory. -
Install Dependencies: The core KEEP model has several dependencies
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-KEEP pip install -r requirements.txt -
Download Pre-trained Models: The nodes will attempt to download the required models automatically during the first run. Models will be saved into standard ComfyUI model directories:
- KEEP models (
KEEP-b76feb75.pth):ComfyUI/models/keep_models/KEEP/ - Face detection/parsing models (e.g.,
detection_Resnet50_Final.pth):ComfyUI/models/facedetection/ - Upscale Models: Place any upscaler models (like Real-ESRGAN, SwinIR, etc.) in
ComfyUI/models/upscale_models/.
If automatic download fails for the KEEP or face models, you can manually download them from the original KEEP Releases V1.0.0 and place them in the corresponding ComfyUI subdirectories mentioned above.
