reve / editImage

The edit half of the Reve story: same closed model, but now it takes an image and an instruction and returns the edited image. Since Reve has no open weights - it's one of the hosted frontier generators people were already name-dropping back when they said "OAI, Reve and Ideogram" in the same sentence - this node is the only realistic way to run Reve edits inside a Comfy graph. It goes through fal's engine on Civitai's orchestration layer, billed in Buzz.

This is worth reaching for when you want a closed-model edit that local Qwen-Edit or Kontext chains can't quite match, and you don't want to leave ComfyUI to do it. It's also the most hands-off editor in this pack: no seed, no strength slider, no sampler. You give it an image and a sentence, it gives you an image.

How it works

Standard civitai-comfy-nodes mechanics: upload your source image and prompt to the Civitai Orchestration API as a reve / editImage job on the fal engine, long-poll until done, and convert the result back to a native IMAGE tensor. Because the model is hosted, the node only exposes what fal's API exposes - which is deliberately sparse.

The inputs that matter

• prompt and images - both required. The instruction goes in the prompt, the source goes in images.
• aspect_ratio - the same wide menu as the create node (auto, 4:1 through 1:4, default 1:1).
• quantity - 1 to 10 edited outputs per job.
• output_format / image_metadata - format choice and optional metadata.

That's everything. No strength, no seed, no negative_prompt - the API doesn't take them, so don't go looking for a knob to control how hard the edit lands. Adjust via the prompt itself.

Outputs

images → Preview/Save Image. errors, workflow_id, raw_json are diagnostics; raw_json holds the full job result for debugging and cost checks.

Installing and authenticating

Pack-wide install - Reve nodes ship in civitai-comfy-nodes:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/civitai/civitai-comfy-nodes.git
pip install -r civitai-comfy-nodes/requirements.txt

or ComfyUI Manager → "Civitai Comfy Nodes" → Install → restart. Dependencies: requests + python-socketio[client].

Auth: Civitai Auth node → CIVITAI_API_TOKEN → stored key/OAuth in ~/.civitai/ → browser login. Headless:

export CIVITAI_API_TOKEN=your_token

Where people get burned

• No strength control. On a local editor you'd reach for a denoise/strength slider to keep edits subtle. Here you can't - the only lever is prompt wording ("slightly", "subtly"). Plan prompts accordingly.
• Your source image leaves the machine, along with the instruction, and it goes through hosted moderation. With no weights, there's no community bypass for anything the filter refuses.
• Per-image billing through fal. Each edited output is a metered job; quantity multiplies the cost.
• No reproducibility. No seed means a lucky edit can't be recreated exactly - if you need a result again, save the IMAGE immediately.
• Don't wire images into the createImage variant by mistake - that node ignores it and just generates from text.
