🔱 Artha Image Preview

Artha Image Preview is an output node: you feed it an image, it shows it to you in the ComfyUI UI, and that's it. No secret features, no settings worth agonizing over - it's the pack's built-in "look at this" endpoint, the visual check at the end of a chain of Artha image nodes.

Honest framing up front: ComfyUI already ships a perfectly good preview node, so this one isn't strictly necessary. It exists so Artha workflows stay self-contained - a pipeline built entirely from this pack can preview without pulling in core nodes or hunting for the right one. If you're already running other Artha nodes, using this one keeps things tidy. If you're not, the core PreviewImage node does the same job and you can skip this entirely.

How it works

It's dead simple under the hood. The node has one optional IMAGE input (images) and, as an output node, produces no outputs at all - it just renders whatever image arrives into the UI via ComfyUI's preview helper. If nothing is wired in (images is None), it returns cleanly without erroring, which makes it safe to drop at the end of a branch you might not always use.

The one thing to know

• images - optional IMAGE input. Wire any image output here. That's the whole interface.

Because it's an output node, it marks the end of a graph path - ComfyUI treats it as a terminal display, same as the built-in preview.

Installing it

It ships with the one-pack Artha install:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/Cyrostar/ComfyUI-Artha-Nodes
pip install -r ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-Artha-Nodes/requirements.txt

restart ComfyUI, or search "ComfyUI-Artha-Nodes" in ComfyUI Manager. No API key, no model files, no heavy dependencies beyond the pack's standard torch/numpy/Pillow - this node itself does nothing but show an image.

Common issues

• Nothing shows up: you didn't wire an image in, or the node is at the end of a branch that never executed. Check the input connection.
• It looks identical to the core preview: correct, and that's fine. It's a convenience, not a capability.

The honest take: if you're browsing Artha nodes and wondering whether you need this one - you probably don't, unless you want an Artha-only workflow with no core-node crossovers. It's the pack equivalent of the free notepad app that comes with the phone: harmless, handy, and not why you bought the phone.
