    ComfyUI-AutoModelDownloader

    A pretty straightforward rebranding of ComfyUI-RunpodDirect with the Runpod bits removed in order to make the addon ideally suited for "offline" use.

    Features

    • Direct Downloads: Download models directly to your ComfyUI instance.
    • Background Downloads: Downloads happen in the background with progress tracking.
    • Multi-Connection Support: Accelerated downloads using multiple connections.
    • Cross-Platform: Works on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
    • Secure: Validates filenames and paths to prevent security issues.
    • Privacy Focused: No external tracking or analytics.

    Usage

    1. Load a workflow that references missing models.

    2. When the "Missing Models" dialog appears, you'll see:

      • Download All Models button (downloads all models sequentially)
      • Individual buttons for each model:
        • Download (browser download)
        • Copy URL (copy model URL)
        • Download to Comfy (NEW - downloads directly to the appropriate Comfy directory)

    3. Option A: Download All Models
