Five of the ten sections opened straight into bullets, so the only sections that said anything were the ones carrying a caution, and the list read as a document that distrusts its own contents. Each of those five now says what it holds. The three group intros that opened with a warning now open with what is in the group and keep the pointer as a trailing clause, and the third-party note leads with what is checked before what is not. Every disclaimer survives word for word: no certification, no vetting, not an endorsement, not a quality or safety rating, and Comfy Org not operating the hosting providers. |

Awesome Comfy 
Things people have built with Comfy: apps and plugins people shipped, films and campaigns that aired, and workflows you can run, plus the APIs and SDKs for building your own.
For artists who want to see what is possible, and for engineers who want to know where to start.
Inside each section, entries sit under From Comfy for what Comfy Org's own team built and From the community for everything else. How to read this list, just below, says what those headings do and do not tell you, and it is worth a minute before you install anything.

How to read this list
Sections group entries by what you are trying to do. Inside most sections, entries sit under one of two headings.
From Comfy means Comfy Org's own team built it. Some of those are maintained products on a release cadence and plenty are a demo, an example app or a weekend build that works, so the heading tells you who wrote a thing rather than who is looking after it, and a question about one belongs on its own issue tracker. From the community means someone else built it, and it is here because it is useful.
Neither heading is a quality rating, a safety rating or a support commitment. Both say who wrote the thing at the other end of the link, and nothing more than that. A partner integration is not a Comfy product either: where a hosted service or a partner model sits behind a Comfy API, the API is Comfy's and the service is the partner's.
Installing third-party projects
Every entry is checked against the bar: it fits a section, its link resolves, and its description matches what the thing actually does. That is the whole check. It is not a safety audit, and Comfy Org does not certify that a listed project is safe, does not control, test or vet its code, models or data, and may review a listing but does not promise to keep reviewing it. Being on this list is not an endorsement.
Custom nodes and apps are executable code, not metadata. They run with the same access as the Comfy process that loads them, which on a local install is your own user account, your files and your network. Trust a pack as much as you would trust any other software you choose to install: read the source, check who publishes it, and accept that you are the one running it.
If an entry is malicious, misleading or harmful, report it. That form is how an entry comes off the list, and no timeframe is promised for it. Removing an entry does nothing to the project itself, which stays wherever its author put it.
Built with Comfy
Products, tools and apps that run Comfy underneath.
From the community
Other people's work: plugins that put Comfy inside the tools you already use, and apps built on top of your own Comfy. All of it is third-party code, so installing third-party projects is worth a minute first.
Tools that put Comfy inside something else:
- krita-ai-diffusion - Inpainting, outpainting and live painting inside Krita, against a local or remote Comfy server.
- OpenLayer - A Photoshop panel that generates, inpaints and upscales through your own Comfy server and hands back editable layers. Alpha.

Workflows
Graphs you can open and run, and the format they are saved in.
From Comfy
- comfy.org/workflows - Browsable catalogue of runnable workflows with the models each one needs, including walkthroughs for character replacement, image to video, sprite sheets, photo restoration and image to 3D.
- workflow_templates - The source of the templates that ship inside Comfy. Open a pull request here to add one.
- Using templates - How the built-in template browser works.

Build your own
The API surfaces, SDKs and hosted endpoints for driving Comfy from your own code.
From Comfy
- Development overview - Map of the API surfaces and which one you want.
- API quickstart - Submit a workflow and collect the result in a few calls, once you have an API key.
Comfy Router, one API in front of many hosted image, video and audio models:
- Router quickstart - One POST, no graph to build. The API reference covers run, queue, poll and cancel.
- Model catalogue - Every model it can run, with per-model input and output schemas.
- Pricing - Per-model cost, which you want before you build on it.
Developer Platform, for running your own workflows as a service:
- Cloud API overview - Assets, jobs, queue and history against hosted Comfy.
- Serverless overview - Turn a workflow into an endpoint you can call.
SDKs, which cover the same ground in the same shape:
- Python SDK - Client for self-hosted Comfy and Comfy Cloud.
- TypeScript SDK - Node client for the Comfy API v2, against Comfy Cloud, serverless or a self-hosted proxy.
- Swift SDK - Thin client: submit, stream, collect outputs.
Comfy MCP:
- Comfy MCP - The hosted endpoint and what it can do.
- comfy-mcp - Exposes a local Comfy over the Model Context Protocol.
- MCP documentation - Setup and the tools the server exposes.
Talking to a Comfy server directly:
- Server API overview - The REST and WebSocket model the editor itself uses, with a reference for every route and working scripts for queueing prompts and reading results.
- comfy-api-proxy - Puts the v2 API in front of a self-hosted instance, so one client works against both.
From the community
Other people's libraries for driving Comfy from code. The third-party note above applies to these too.
Writing workflows as code:
- ComfyScript - Write workflows as Python instead of JSON.
- ComfyUI-to-Python-Extension - Exports a saved workflow as a standalone Python script.
Node packs
Custom nodes are how Comfy grows, and there are thousands of them. The registry ranks them live by install count, with search, versions and scanning, which is a better place to browse than a frozen top twenty here. Packs are third-party code that runs inside your Comfy process, so the note above applies.
Find and install them with:
- ComfyUI-Manager - Installs, updates, disables and security-scans node packs from inside the editor. Most people's entry point.
- Comfy Registry - The package index, searchable and ranked by install count. Start here rather than with a clone URL someone pasted in a comment.
- Registry overview - What the registry is, how versions and publishers work.
- Publishing to the registry - For node authors shipping a pack, with the standards a pack is expected to follow and CI/CD for publishing on tag.
- Installing custom nodes - The manual route, and what it writes to disk.
- Custom node troubleshooting - Import errors, dependency conflicts and how to bisect them.
Writing your own nodes
Everything you need to write a node of your own, from an empty folder to a published pack.
From Comfy
- Custom node overview - Start here if you are writing your first node.
- Walkthrough - Builds a working node from an empty folder.
- Server-side reference -
INPUT_TYPES,RETURN_TYPES,FUNCTION, lifecycle and the rest of the contract. - Datatypes - The type system that decides which sockets connect.
- Shipping templates with a pack - So users get an example workflow on install.
- ComfyUI_frontend - The Vue front end the editor runs on.

- embedded-docs - The help pages shown inside the editor for core nodes, and how to add yours.
- comfy-model-tools - Scripts for merging, converting and quantizing model files for Comfy.
- comfyui-benchmark - Extension for measuring generation performance across configurations.
Hosting
Running Comfy on someone else's GPU, by renting one or deploying an image.
From Comfy
- Self-hosting guide - Running Comfy on a rented GPU.
From the community
Independent providers and container images, each run by the people who built it. Comfy Org does not operate them, hold your data or set their prices, and the third-party note above applies.
- ComfyUI-Docker - Container images across several CUDA and Python combinations.
- SaladCloud - Deploy image and video generation with ComfyUI on their container engine.
- comfyui-api - A stateless API server in front of Comfy that returns images or sends them to webhooks and S3, built for horizontal scaling.
