GALIAIS-Nodes Negative Preset

Every anime workflow needs a negative prompt, and everyone types the same twenty words into it. The Negative Preset node is the boring, sensible fix: five canned negative lists you pick from a dropdown, plus a field to append your own tokens, with dedup on top.

It's a small node that earns its place because the pack uses negative presets in several places - PromptBuilder, PromptOrchestrator, and ProjectConfig all reference the same preset set - so this is the node for using them in isolation.

How it works

One dropdown, 预设 (preset), with five choices:

• 标准 (standard) - the classic anime list: worst quality, low quality, score_1, score_2, score_3, lowres, blurry, jpeg artifacts, bad anatomy, bad hands, ... watermark, signature, artist name.
• 轻量 (light) - just worst quality, low quality, blurry, watermark, text. For when you trust the model and don't want a wall of negatives.
• 手部修复 (hand fix) - hands only: bad/deformed/extra/missing/fused fingers and hands. The surgical option.
• 写实 (realistic) - a realism-leaning list for when you're mixing toward photo.
• 无 (none) - nothing.

Then 追加内容 (append content) is a multiline field for your own negatives, and 去重 (dedupe, on by default) removes anything that shows up in both the preset and your append. One output, 负面提示词 (negative prompt), ready to wire into your CLIP text encode or conditioning.

A note on the score_1...score_3 tokens in 标准: those are the Pony/Anima score-tag family. They're meaningful on models trained with score tags and inert elsewhere - the KB's stance is that long negative lists aren't generally needed on Illustrious-family models, so 轻量 or a trimmed 标准 is often the better call there.

Installing it

It's part of the GALIAIS-Nodes pack:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/GALIAIS/GALIAIS-Nodes.git

Restart ComfyUI, or install via ComfyUI Manager ("GALIAIS-Nodes"). No Python dependencies, no database required - this is one of the few pack nodes that works completely standalone. Field labels are Chinese (预设, 追加内容, 去重).

The one thing to know

The trap isn't the node, it's the habit: pasting a giant negative list everywhere because 2023 told you to. On modern anime SDXL, negatives still matter, but a long boilerplate list isn't automatically better than a short focused one - and on guidance-distilled models, heavy negatives can fight the generation. Use 标准 when you're seeing actual junk, 手部修复 when it's specifically hands, 轻量 when the model behaves. A preset dropdown that nudges you toward the right-sized negative is honestly more useful than it sounds.
