Gemini Text Generation
The workhorse LLM node of the pack
- client
- response
This is the node you'll actually live in. Gemini Text Generation is the pack's general-purpose LLM call: prompt in, STRING out, with a model dropdown spanning Gemini 3.5 Flash up through 3.1 Pro, plus the sampling knobs, JSON mode, and thinking-level control. Whether you're rewriting prompts, captioning, or extracting structured data, this is the default place to do it.
The model is picked right on the node (default gemini-3.5-flash - fast, cheap, plenty smart for prompt work), so you don't need a separate model selector. The client input is optional; key comes from Settings > ERPK > API Keys if you leave it unconnected.
The inputs that matter
- prompt - required. Multiline.
- temperature - 0.7 default, range 0–2. For deterministic extraction, drop it toward 0; for creative writing, push it up.
- max_tokens - 8192 default, up to 65536. Generous; cut it if you want faster/cheaper calls.
- top_p (0.95) and top_k (40) - nucleus and top-k sampling. Most people never touch them; 0.0 top_p disables, 0 top_k disables.
- stop_sequences - one per line; stop generation at these strings. Handy for trimming boilerplate.
- response_mime_type -
defaultunless you setapplication/jsonto get JSON mode. That's the switch that turns this node into a structured-output node. - response_schema - the JSON schema for structured output, used only with
application/json. Empty = free-form JSON. - thinking_level -
nonedefault; options up to high. This is the clever one: the node translates the same UI value intothinking_budget(an int) on Gemini 2.5 models or thethinking_levelenum on 3.x, so the widget just works regardless of which model you pick. - seed - reproducibility/cache control, -1 randomizes.
Output: a single response STRING - straight into Preview Anything or any downstream prompt input.
Install and gotchas
Part of the ERPK Collection:
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/eRepublik-Labs/comfyui-nodes-erpk.git erpk
cd erpk && pip install -r requirements.txt
Restart (or ComfyUI Manager → search erpk), add a Google AI Studio API key in Settings > ERPK > API Keys. Paid per token; Gemini Flash models are cheap enough that this rarely stings, but Pro adds up.
Two things bite people. First, JSON mode is two fields, not one: you must set response_mime_type to application/json and give a response_schema (or leave it empty for free-form JSON) - setting only one does nothing useful. Second, thinking_level "none" is genuinely none; if you expected reasoning by default, flip it on. Otherwise you'll wonder why the "smart" model is giving you shallow answers.
Inputs (12)
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| prompt | STRING | Text prompt for Gemini | |
| seed | INT | -1-1–2147483647 | Seed for reproducible outputs. Randomizes by default. |
| clientopt | GEMINI_API_CLIENT | Gemini API client from Gemini API Config node (optional if API key is configured in Settings) | |
| modelopt | COMBO | gemini-3.5-flash | Gemini model to use for generation |
| temperatureopt | FLOAT | 0.700–2 | Creativity level (0.0=focused, 2.0=very creative) |
| max_tokensopt | INT | 8192256–65536 | Maximum length of response |
| top_popt | FLOAT | 0.950–1 | Nucleus sampling - cumulative probability threshold (0.0=disabled) |
| top_kopt | INT | 40-1–100 | Top-k sampling - limit token selection (0=disabled) |
| stop_sequencesopt | STRING | Stop generation at these sequences (one per line, leave empty to disable) | |
| response_mime_typeopt | COMBO | default | Output format (use application/json for JSON mode) |
| response_schemaopt | STRING | JSON schema for structured output (only used with application/json, leave empty for free-form JSON) | |
| thinking_levelopt | COMBO | none | Reasoning depth. 'none' sends no thinking setting, so the model thinks at its own default level (it does not turn thinking off). minimal is raised to low on models that reject it: 3.1 Pro Preview, 3.7 Flash, 3.8 Flash. |
