Overview
ComfyUI-Manager is a custom node for ComfyUI that adds a Manager menu to install, remove, disable and enable custom nodes and download models. It reads a channel-based node database and the registry at registry.comfy.org, and also provides snapshots, missing-node detection and a cm-cli tool that runs without starting ComfyUI.
Who it is for: ComfyUI users who manage many custom nodes and models
Strengths
- Installs, updates, disables and removes custom nodes from a menu inside ComfyUI
- Snapshots save the installed state and restore it on the next startup
- Install Missing Custom Nodes finds extensions needed by the loaded workflow
- cm-cli runs manager functions without ComfyUI; config supports uv, pip overrides and offline mode
Weaknesses
- Only works with ComfyUI; not usable standalone
- Snapshot restore is incomplete for custom nodes not managed by Git
- Install outside ComfyUI/custom_nodes/comfyui-manager breaks recognition and updates
- No tagged release; installed by git clone or comfy-cli
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs ComfyUI, git, Python 3
