π₯ AnyDownload List
One dropdown, 184 curated model files
- any_model
This is the grab-bag downloader. One dropdown, a curated list of 184 common model files - VAEs, text encoders, Redux models, CLIP Vision encoders, upscalers, the whole utility shelf - pick one and it downloads it for you. No hunting for the right Hugging Face repo, no copying URLs. The SDVN author has pre-baked the links, so you just pick the file by name and it lands in the right folder. The output type is deliberately loose (*, "any") because the list spans so many different kinds of file.
Why this exists
Anyone who's set up a Flux or HunyuanVideo or HiDream workflow knows the annoying part isn't the checkpoint - it's the support files. The specific T5 build, the right VAE, the SigLIP vision encoder for Redux, the little upscale model. They live scattered across a dozen repos and everyone links them differently. AnyDownload List is SDVN's answer: a single menu of the files people actually need, with the download addresses already wired in. It's less a precise tool and more a convenience shelf - when you know the name of the file you need but not where it lives, this saves you the search.
The inputs and outputs that matter
Model- the one input that matters. A dropdown of 184 curated filenames: the VAE variants (flux_vae.safetensors, the anime VAEs), the text encoders (clip_l, thet5xxlbuilds), the Redux and SigLIP files, and plenty more. Pick the file by name; it downloads if you don't have it.
Output is any_model, typed * - meaning it takes on whatever the file actually is. That's the catch and the feature: because the list mixes VAEs, CLIPs, style models and so on, the output isn't pre-typed. You wire it into whatever node consumes that kind of file. If you grabbed a VAE, it goes to a VAE Decode; a CLIP, to a text encode; and so on.
Installing it
ComfyUI Manager: search SDVN_Comfy_node, install, restart. Manually:
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/StableDiffusionVN/SDVN_Comfy_node
Then pip install -r custom_nodes/SDVN_Comfy_node/requirements.txt from your ComfyUI root, and restart. Windows/macOS need aria2c installed for the downloads.
Where people get burned
The * output can wire into the wrong thing. ComfyUI won't always stop you from connecting an "any" output to a socket that expects a different type. If you download a CLIP and plug it into a VAE input, you'll get a confusing error downstream, not at the connection. Know what kind of file you picked and wire it accordingly.
It's a fixed list, not a search engine. If the exact file you need isn't in the 184, this node can't get it - that's what the URL-based download nodes (VAE Download, CLIP Download, UNET Download) are for. Use AnyDownload List for the common stuff it already knows; drop to a URL node for anything bespoke.
Download failed. Same as the rest of the family: missing aria2c on Windows/macOS, or a gated repo needing a token. The console shows the fetch.
