Int to Bool (Threshold)

Most booleans in ComfyUI arrive ready-made: a checkbox here, a toggle there. But sometimes your branching logic is driven by a number - how many images a loader found, a batch index, a counter you're incrementing - and ComfyUI won't let you wire an INT into a boolean socket. That's the whole job of Int to Bool (Threshold). It's about as simple as a node gets, and it exists so the rest of the vsLinx boolean family has something to chew on.

The mechanism is literally one comparison: the node outputs True when value >= threshold, otherwise False. The source is a single return (value >= threshold,). Nothing hidden, no API calls, no models - this is the rare custom node you can read top to bottom in a minute.

The inputs that matter

Just two, and both are INT:

• value (default 0) - the integer you're testing.
• threshold (default 1) - the cutoff. With the default, it behaves like the classic "0 → False, anything ≥ 1 → True" conversion everyone expects from an int-to-bool.

The output is a single boolean that wires into any boolean input. Its natural home is the Forward/Bypass on Boolean (Any) or Forward/Mute on Boolean (Any) node from the same pack - feed your converted boolean into one of those and you get a conditional branch in your graph without touching the queue. Chain it through the pack's Boolean AND/OR/Flip nodes and you can build "if this count is at least 3 AND that other condition is true, mute this block" logic. The same pattern (boolean-driven group control) is why rgthree's Fast Groups Bypasser exists; vsLinx just does it per-wire with any source of truth.

Where people get burned

The input is INT only. If your number is a FLOAT - CFG, denoise, an aspect ratio - you can't wire it straight in; you'll need a conversion node first. And the comparison is >=, not ==. There's no "exactly equals" variant here, so if you need equality checking, this node won't do it - reach for a logic utility from another pack.

Installing it

It ships in ComfyUI vsLinx Nodes, a utility pack with no requirements.txt and no model downloads - pure Python, so install is painless. Via ComfyUI Manager, search "vsLinx" and hit install. Or manually:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/vslinx/ComfyUI-vslinx-nodes.git comfyui-vslinx-nodes

Then restart ComfyUI and look for it under the vsLinx/boolean category.

Honest take: this node is a rounding utility, not a feature. You won't go looking for it until some workflow hands you an integer where a condition belongs - and then you'll be glad it's there. Since it costs nothing and the rest of the pack (the forward/bypass nodes, Load Last Generated Image, the tiled samplers) earns its place, it's not a reason to install vsLinx - but it's a nice reason to keep it once you have.
