Send Webp Image to Eagle

This is the minimalist sibling in the ComfyUI-send-Eagle(slim) pack. Where its partner node "Send Eagle with text" fusses over prompts and memos, this one just takes an image and files it into your local Eagle library as webp. Fire and forget - that's the whole pitch.

If you're doing batch generation and only care that the keepers end up in Eagle without hand-annotating every frame, this is the node you'll actually reach for. It's the lean option in a pack that's already a "slim" rewrite of the original ComfyUI-send-Eagle: fewer widgets, less to misconfigure, one job.

How it works

Same mechanism as the whole pack. It's an output node with no outputs; at queue time it encodes the incoming images tensor to webp and POSTs it to Eagle's local HTTP API on your machine - the app just has to be running, no cloud, no API key. The only real difference from its text-toting sibling is that this one is webp-only and carries no annotation fields.

The inputs

• images - your image, wired from VAE Decode.
• lossless_webp - a lossy/lossless picker. Leave it lossy unless you're archiving something you'll re-edit.
• compression - webp quality, 1–100, default 80. This is the one you'll touch most: crank it down for throwaway contact sheets, keep it up for keepers.
• send_prompt - a boolean, default off, that controls whether the prompt metadata goes along with the file.

That send_prompt toggle is the honest tell that this is a speed-oriented node: by default it doesn't even bother sending the prompt. Webp can't carry the full ComfyUI workflow metadata anyway (that round-trip trick is a png thing, and the pack's PNG path lives in the "Send Eagle with text" node), so you're optimizing for a small, fast library rather than for re-importing workflows later.

Installing it

Same pack, same steps. ComfyUI Manager - search "Eagle", grab ComfyUI-send-Eagle(slim) - or manually:

cd path/to/ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/shingo1228/ComfyUI-send-eagle-slim.git

Then restart ComfyUI. No model files to download, no heavy dependency list to fight with.

The one gotcha

Eagle must be running for the send to land anywhere - the node talks to the local app, so a closed Eagle means images vanish into the void. And remember webp means no drag-the-file-back-into-ComfyUI workflow recovery. If you're someone who wants that archive behavior, this isn't the node for you - the with-text sibling is. If you just want your batch curated into Eagle without ceremony, this one quietly does the job.
