Prompt Composer Styler (deprecated!)
The deprecated art-style picker (still works, still ships)
- text_out
Like its sibling Effect, Styler wears its status right in the display name: "Prompt Composer Styler (deprecated!)". The README says the same thing about both of them in one line - deprecated, no future updates. It still ships, still runs, and still lives under the Deprecated subfolder rather than the main Prompt Composer Tools menu.
Where Effect picks a post-processing treatment, Styler picks an overall art style or movement - a single dropdown of 58 built-in options: Abstract Expressionism, Acrylic Painting, Anime, Art Deco, Biomorphic Abstraction, Black and White Photograph, Cartoon, Charcoal Sketch, Chibi Anime, Chinese Painting, Classicist Painting, and dozens more. It's the node for "make the whole image look like X," not "apply this filter to it."
How it works
Same shape as every dropdown-picker in this pack. Choose a style, and if style_weight is off its default of 1, the node wraps the chosen style name in (style:weight) before outputting it. Leave the dropdown at - and nothing gets added.
The inputs and outputs that matter
style(enum, 58 choices, default-) - the art style or movement to apply.style_weight(0 to 1.95, step 0.1, default 1) - weight for the chosen style.active(boolean) - bypass switch.text_in_opt(optional string) - chain input from an upstream Prompt Composer node.text_out- the resulting string.
Should you actually use it?
For new workflows, I'd point you at Custom Lists or the List Folders category nodes over Styler. The likely reason it's frozen: those pull from external .txt files rather than a hard-coded list, so entries can be added or fixed without editing the node's code - Styler's 58 options are fixed as-is. If it's already doing its job in a workflow you rely on, there's no need to swap it out; deprecated means no further updates, not removal.
How to install it
ComfyUI Manager: search florestefano1975, install, restart. Manual:
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/florestefano1975/comfyui-prompt-composer
restart ComfyUI. No model downloads, no heavy dependencies - the whole pack, deprecated nodes included, is a lightweight install.
Common issues & troubleshooting
Not showing up where you expect. Look under the Deprecated subfolder of AI WizArt/Prompt Composer Tools, not the top-level menu.
Weight isn't doing anything visible. The (style:weight) attention syntax is CLIP-only - it works on SD1.5, SDXL, Illustrious, NoobAI and similar checkpoints, and does nothing (worse than nothing, since the punctuation still gets read literally) on LLM-encoded models like Flux, Z-Image or Anima.
The style you want isn't in the list. The 58 entries are baked into the node and can't be extended like Custom Lists' file-driven categories can. Type it into a Single Text node and chain it in via text_in_opt, or add it as a Custom Lists entry instead.
