RedNode Note

Big workflows turn into puzzles where you can't remember which section does what. ComfyUI's own Note node exists for this, and it's fine - but RedNode Note is the version that's actually visible. It's a canvas label with big glowing text, in a color you choose, styled so a sign you meant to be a sign reads as a sign. When you deselect it, the title bar and settings vanish and all that's left is the text itself, sitting on the canvas like a caption on a diagram.

Here's the thing that surprises people who pick it up expecting a smarter note editor: the node carries only the words. There's a single note input - a multiline text box, wired to nothing, purely presentational - and that's it. Everything that makes it look good, the size, the font, the color, the glow, lives on a separate RedNode Note Panel. This is a deliberate split, and it's worth understanding before you go looking for a font dropdown that isn't there. One node holds content; another node styles it. You could add a note and never touch the panel, in which case it renders with the pack's default styling, but the styling controls aren't on this node by design.

Why the split? Because the pack wants your workflow's documentation styled consistently from one place. Ten notes, each with its own font and color, looks like a ransom note; ten notes driven by one panel looks like a properly captioned schematic. RedNode Note Panel lists every RedNode Note in the workflow and lets you restyle all of them at once - same font, same color, same glow - which is the workflow-level answer to "my graph has no visual hierarchy."

Practical notes: it's a frontend-rendered node, so the glow and styling happen in the browser, not in the data graph. It has no outputs, no execution behavior worth mentioning, and it does nothing to your generation. That's the point - it's documentation, not plumbing. If you're the sort of person who opens a workflow you built three months ago and can't tell the draft branch from the final branch, a few of these with a consistent color scheme will save you more time than most utility nodes.

Installation is the pack:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/RedNodeAI/ComfyUI-RedNodeStudio.git

or search RedNode Studio in ComfyUI Manager, restart. No pip dependencies, works with any model. It's part of the general-purpose half of the pack, so no Krea 2 stack needed - just a ComfyUI with a modern frontend that renders it.
