Advanced tools
ComfyUI-Manager provides features to install and manage custom nodes for ComfyUI, as well as various functionalities to assist with ComfyUI.
ComfyUI-Manager is an extension designed to enhance the usability of ComfyUI. It offers management functions to install, remove, disable, and enable various custom nodes of ComfyUI. Furthermore, this extension provides a hub feature and convenience functions to access a wide range of information within ComfyUI.

When installing the latest ComfyUI, it will be automatically installed as a dependency, so manual installation is no longer necessary.
Manual installation of the nightly version:
ComfyUI/custom_nodes.)
git clone https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI-Manager
cd ComfyUI-Manager
pip install .
See also: https://github.com/Comfy-Org/comfy-cli
ENABLE_LEGACY_COMFYUI_MANAGER_FRONT to true before running.Click "Manager" button on main menu

If you click on 'Install Custom Nodes' or 'Install Models', an installer dialog will open.

There are three DB modes: DB: Channel (1day cache), DB: Local, and DB: Channel (remote).
Channel (1day cache) utilizes Channel cache information with a validity period of one day to quickly display the list.
Local uses information stored locally in ComfyUI-Manager.
custom-node-list.json and testing them.Channel (remote) retrieves information from the remote channel, always displaying the latest list.The Fetch Updates menu retrieves update data for custom nodes locally. Actual updates are applied by clicking the Update button in the Install Custom Nodes menu.
Click 'Install' or 'Try Install' button.


Installed: This item is already installed.
Install: Clicking this button will install the item.
Try Install: This is a custom node of which installation information cannot be confirmed. Click the button to try installing it.
If a red background Channel indicator appears at the top, it means it is not the default channel. Since the amount of information held is different from the default channel, many custom nodes may not appear in this channel state.
Conflicted Nodes with a yellow background show a list of nodes conflicting with other extensions in the respective extension. This issue needs to be addressed by the developer, and users should be aware that due to these conflicts, some nodes may not function correctly and may need to be installed accordingly.

You can modify the config.ini file to apply the settings for ComfyUI-Manager.
config.ini used by ComfyUI-Manager is displayed in the startup log messages.Configuration options:

use_uv = <Use uv instead of pip for dependency installation.>
default_cache_as_channel_url = <Determines whether to retrieve the DB designated as channel_url at startup>
bypass_ssl = <Set to True if SSL errors occur to disable SSL.>
file_logging = <Configure whether to create a log file used by ComfyUI-Manager.>

file_logging = False in the config.ini.Fix node (recreate): When right-clicking on a node and selecting Fix node (recreate), you can recreate the node. The widget's values are reset, while the connections maintain those with the same names.
Double-Click Node Title: You can set the double-click behavior of nodes in the ComfyUI-Manager menu.
Copy All Connections, Copy Input Connections: Double-clicking a node copies the connections of the nearest node.
Copy All Connections, it duplicates existing outputs, but since it does not allow duplicate connections, the existing output connections of the original node are disconnected.Possible Input Connections: It connects all outputs that match the closest type within the specified range.
Possible(left) + Copy(right): When you Double-Click on the left half of the title, it operates as Possible Input Connections, and when you Double-Click on the right half, it operates as Copy All Connections.Prevent downgrade of specific packages

If you list pip spec requirements in pip_auto_fix.list, similar to requirements.txt, it will automatically restore the specified versions when starting ComfyUI or when versions get mismatched during various custom node installations.
