✨ Key Features

👁️ Visual Previews

Node Integration: Direct image previews on Prompt Gallery node
Quick Edit Previews: Preview support in editing interfaces
Selection Previews: Visual feedback during file selection
Custom Previews: Easy custom preview image assignment

🖼️ Prompt Extractor

Drop an Image, Get Tags: Drop any previously generated image on the node and its positive prompt comes back as editable tag pills
Reads Everything: ComfyUI's embedded graph, the editor workflow, and A1111/Forge parameters in PNG text chunks or JPEG/WebP EXIF
Positive Only: Traces the graph backwards from the sampler's positive input — negatives and unconnected leftover nodes are never picked up
Recovers Toggled-Off Tags: If the image came from an EreNodes workflow, tags that were switched off come back as inactive pills, with their strengths and types intact
Just Tags After That: Fully editable — toggle, add, reorder, drag into another node, or save as a tag group

🧱 Prompt Composer

Categories, Not Nodes: Keep character, outfit, background and quality apart in one node instead of four chained ones — each category has its own tag area, ≡ and + buttons
Fold What You Are Not Editing: Click a category header to collapse it; the layout is saved with the workflow
Bypass a Whole Category: The switch on the right turns one off without touching a single tag inside it, so switching it back on restores exactly what was there
Drag Categories: Reorder them by their header, or drag one straight into another Prompt Composer
Same Pills Everywhere: Tags drag between categories, and in and out of every other prompt node, exactly as they always have

📁 Tag Groups Management

Favorite Prompts: Save and organize your most-used prompts with tags, LoRAs, and trigger words
Direct Node Integration: Create tag groups directly from nodes with subfolder organization
Quick Application: Easy loading of saved tag groups as convenient pills or their content
Import/Export: Seamless sharing and backup of your tag collections
Choose Where They Live: Keep tag groups in the node folder or in ComfyUI/models/tag_groups so they survive reinstalls and Manager updates
Bulk Import Script: scripts/animadex_to_tag_groups.py builds tag groups (with covers) from the animadex.net character catalogue — a standalone command-line tool for anyone who wants a large character library in one go; see scripts/README.md

🗂️ EreNodes Sidebar

Native Sidebar Tab: Browse tag groups, LoRAs and embeddings in a proper ComfyUI sidebar tab
Two-Mode Search: Filter by file and folder name or the tags inside every group
Autocomplete in Tag Search: the search box completes tags as you type, offering only tags your groups actually contain (with counts)
Hover Previews: Hover any entry to see its thumbnail and its tags, drawn with the exact same pills the nodes use
Drag Both Ways: Drag an entry onto an existing node to add it — or drag a node's tag pills onto a sidebar folder to open the editor and save them as a new tag group
Group or Contents, Your Choice: A dragged tag group lands as one pill by default; hold Alt to drop its tags instead. The ghost tells you which
Drop an Image to Build a Group: Drop a generated image anywhere on the tree to create a group from its prompt, with the image kept as the cover
Pick Tags Out of a Preview: Hover a tag group, move into the preview, select tags you want and drag just those into a prompt node

✏️ Advanced Tag Editing

Missing File Warnings: LoRA, embedding and tag group pills turn red-bordered when the file they name isn't on disk
Effortless Replacement: Quick edit tags or replacement of LoRAs, embeddings and Tag Groups
Strength Control: Precise tag strength adjustment via buttons or intuitive click-dragging
Rich Previews: Set and view preview images for all content types
Dynamic Triggers: Toggle LoRA trigger words with familiar tag pill interface

🖐️ Drag & Drop Tag Pills

Reorder by Dragging: Hold a pill for a moment (or just start moving it) to enter reorder mode — a live placeholder shows exactly where it will land
Move Between Nodes: Drag pills from one prompt node into another; hold Alt while dropping to copy instead of move
Multi-Select: Ctrl+click picks individual pills (they don't need to be next to each other), Ctrl+drag sweep a selected pill again to drop it, just like Explorer — and Shift+click selects a range
Bulk Actions: Right-click any pill in a selection for Enable / Disable / Toggle / Remove, or save and export just those tags as a group
Works Everywhere: Cloud, Toggle, MultiSelect, Randomizer and Gallery nodes all share the same behaviour

🔍 Smart Autocomplete

Comprehensive Dictionaries: Built-in tag lists from Danbooru and e621, plus support for custom CSV files in the __autocomplete__ folder or the update-safe user folder
Intelligent Aliases: Automatic tag alias detection and replacement with canonical terms
Flexible Search: Partial matching support, including multi-word tag recognition
Visual Highlighting: Clear highlighting of filtered terms for enhanced clarity

🧭 Compatibility

ComfyUI: registered via standard NODE_CLASS_MAPPINGS (works on current and older installs). Node IDs are stable — workflows remain interchangeable.
Subgraphs: supported. The prefix separator is passed as a real input instead of being read from workflow metadata.
Nodes 2.0 (Vue renderer): supported. Tag UI is DOM widgets in both the classic LiteGraph renderer and Nodes 2.0 (same implementation). The old canvas-drawn UI was removed; it remains available in git history.

📦 Installation

Quick Install (Recommended)

Via ComfyUI Manager:

Open ComfyUI Manager in your ComfyUI interface
Search for "EreNodes"
Click Install
Restart ComfyUI

Manual Installation

# Navigate to your ComfyUI custom_nodes directory
cd /path/to/ComfyUI/custom_nodes

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/erehr/ComfyUI-EreNodes.git

# Restart ComfyUI

Tip: After installation, you'll find the new nodes under the "EreNodes" category in your ComfyUI node browser.

🚀 Getting Started

Quick Setup

Custom Autocomplete: Place bundled CSV files in the __autocomplete__ folder within the EreNodes directory. For custom CSVs, place them in ComfyUI/user/__erenodes/autocomplete and choose the file in Settings; this folder is created automatically.
Preview Images: Add preview images to enhance your tag browsing experience
Create Your First Tag Group: Use any EreNodes prompt node to save your favorite tag combinations

🎮 Basic Usage

Using Autocomplete:

Start typing in any EreNodes text or add tag field
Use Tab or arrow keys to navigate suggestions
Press Enter to select
Enjoy intelligent tag completion with aliases

Managing Tag Groups:

Click on any tag nodes ≡ menu button to "Save as Tag Group". Select (or create) folder, type filename and select optional image.
Access saved groups through the ≡ 'Load Tag Group' (loading content of tag group) or + button 'Add tag' (loading tag group as single combined pill)
Import/export tag groups for sharing with the community

LoRA Loading:

EreNodes provides flexible LoRA loading options to fit different workflow preferences:

| Method | Description | Compatible Nodes | Use Case | |--------|-------------|------------------|----------| | LoRA Stack | Use "Prompt to LoRA Stack" node to extract <lora:name:strength> tags and connect to stack-compatible nodes | • Efficiency Nodes<br>• ComfyRoll Custom Nodes<br>• LoRA Manager | Best for mixing multiple sources of LoRAs | | Direct Loading | Use nodes that load LoRAs directly from prompt text in place of standard LoRA loaders. | • LoRA Tag Loader<br>• Impact Wildcard Encode<br>• PCLazyLoRALoader | Best for simple workflows or when using wildcards |

💡 Pro Tips

Search Efficiently: Use partial matches or space for multi word phrases
Visual Organization: Set preview images for your most-used ta groups
Quick Edits: Right-click any tag for instant editing options
Rearrange Fast: Drag pills to reorder them, or straight into another prompt node — Ctrl+click first to move several at once
Experiment: Use the Randomizer node to discover new prompt combinations
Convertible: All tag nodes can be converted to another under ≡ menu
Customize output: Separators between nodes and individual tags are edited in ≡ → Options, or in node Properties

📋 Changelog

Version 3.6 - Latest

Drop tags into a prompt textarea: pills and tag groups can be dragged into the Prompt Multiline node and Composer multiline category
New text tag type: a pill holding a whole sentences, so tags and natural language prompts can mix in one node
Separators on the node: tag and node separators are now editable from node ≡ → Options

Version 3.5

New Node: Prompt Composer: several tag clouds in one node as reorderable, collapsible categories

Version 3.4

Sidebar Tag search: now as alternative mode, automatically indexing cache database in background
Autocomplete on the sidebar search box (tag mode only): only from actual tags in tag groups (cached)
Prompt randomizer added missing seed control

Version 3.3

Tag group editor in sidebar.
Drop an image on the sidebar: extracts its prompt and keeps the image as the group's cover

Version 3.2

EreNodes sidebar: native sidebar for managing tag groups / LoRAs / embeddings
Search inside tag groups: sidebar filter matching file names and the tags a group contains
Configurable tag group folder: node folder (default, unchanged) or in ComfyUI/models/tag_groups

Version 3.1

Drag & drop reorder: press-and-hold (or move) a tag pill to reorder it, with a live drop placeholder and drag preview
Drag between nodes: move pills across any pill-based prompt nodes; Alt while dropping copies instead of moving, duplicate names are skipped
Multi-select: Ctrl+click toggles individual pills, Ctrl+drag rubber-bands a box over them (Explorer-style — re-sweeping a selected pill deselects it), Shift+click selects a range, Esc or a click outside clears it — a drag started on a selected pill carries the whole set
Selection actions: right-clicking a selected pill opens bulk Enable / Disable / Toggle / Remove, plus "Save Selected as Tag Group" and "Export Selected"
Quick edit cleanup: Move Up / Move Down were dropped from the right-click menu now that pills can simply be dragged

Version 3.0

Nodes 2.0 ready: tag UI rendered as DOM widgets in both classic and Vue renderers
Subgraph support: prefix separator is a real (hidden) input; property panel remains the edit surface
Gallery performance: previews are plain <img> elements (browser cache, lazy loading) — no manual bitmap cache needed
Randomizer: "control after generate" now triggers once per completed prompt (works correctly with queued batches)
Many bug fixes: global autocomplete attachment, overwrite-confirm dialog, settings sync, stale text on workflow load, safer file-serving routes, gallery previews for filenames with special characters, button tooltips

Version 2.1

New Node: Prompt Gallery: Powerful and intuitive grid-based gallery for browsing and selecting tags
