Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

ComfyUI MCP server: knowledge base, workflow builder, real-time execution, models, plugins.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Search & AI memory

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: COMFYUI_HOST, COMFYUI_PATH, COMFYUI_KNOWLEDGE_DIR

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "comfy-ui-builder": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-comfy-ui-builder"
      ],
      "env": {
        "COMFYUI_HOST": "your-value",
        "COMFYUI_PATH": "your-value",
        "COMFYUI_KNOWLEDGE_DIR": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add comfy-ui-builder --env COMFYUI_HOST=your-value --env COMFYUI_PATH=your-value --env COMFYUI_KNOWLEDGE_DIR=your-value -- npx -y mcp-comfy-ui-builder

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "comfy-ui-builder": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-comfy-ui-builder"
      ],
      "env": {

        "COMFYUI_KNOWLEDGE_DIR": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "comfy-ui-builder": {

Common questions

Is ComfyUI Builder safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.4.1) reached the registry 9 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

mcp-comfy-ui-builder

Control ComfyUI from Claude or Cursor — 50+ MCP tools for node discovery, dynamic workflow building, real-time WebSocket execution, and model management. No JSON editing required.

Tell your AI assistant what image to generate — it builds and runs the ComfyUI workflow for you. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client.

Publishable to the MCP Registry via server.json and mcpName.

What is this

  • Knowledge base: Seed knowledge/base-nodes.json and node-compatibility.json from bundled data (62 seed nodes; 100–600+ after sync). No external services required for suggest/build.
  • Sync: Custom packs from ComfyUI-Manager; nodes from running ComfyUI via sync-nodes CLI or on MCP startup.
  • MCP server (50+ tools): Node discovery, dynamic workflow builder, 9 templates (txt2img, txt2img_flux, img2img, …), WebSocket real-time execution, batch/chain, model management, plugin system.
  • Real-time execution: Sub-second progress via WebSocket with automatic polling fallback; ~90% less network traffic for batch runs.

Install

npm install mcp-comfy-ui-builder

Or from source: git clone https://github.com/MIt9/mcp-comfy-ui-builder.git && cd mcp-comfy-ui-builder && npm install

Quick start

  1. Build (postbuild fills knowledge from seed)
   npm run build

npm run mcp

  1. Use knowledge in code
   import baseNodes from './knowledge/base-nodes.json' assert { type: 'json' };

Commands

CommandDescription
npm run seedFill knowledge from seed. Use --force to overwrite.
npm run sync-managerUpdate custom packs list from ComfyUI-Manager
npm run sync-nodesSync nodes from running ComfyUI to knowledge base (requires COMFYUI_HOST)

MCP Server (Cursor / Claude)

Server provides 50+ tools across 9 categories:

Core Features

Node Discovery:

  • list_node_types, get_node_info, check_compatibility, suggest_nodes
  • discover_nodes_live, search_nodes, sync_nodes_to_knowledge

Dynamic Workflow Builder:

  • create_workflow, add_node, connect_nodes, validate_workflow
  • Build workflows programmatically without JSON manipulation

Templates & Macros:

  • list_templates, build_workflow — Pre-built templates (txt2img, img2img, inpainting, upscale, LoRA, ControlNet, batch)
  • create_template, apply_template — Parameterized templates
  • list_macros, insert_macro — Reusable sub-workflows

Real-time execution 📡

  • execute_workflow_sync — Execute with WebSocket progress streaming (sub-second updates)
  • execute_workflow_stream — Full event history collection (WebSocket-only)
  • get_execution_progress — Real-time progress with node-level granularity
  • execute_batch — Concurrent execution with 90% reduced network traffic
  • execute_chain — Sequential workflows with data passing

Resources & Model Management:

  • get_system_resources — GPU/VRAM/RAM + recommendations (max resolution, model size, batch size); call first before building workflows to avoid OOM
  • list_models, check_model_exists, get_workflow_models
  • Supports checkpoint, lora, vae, controlnet, upscale, embedding, clip

Outputs & Queue:

  • list_outputs, download_output, download_all_outputs

Install (requires COMFYUI_PATH):

  • install_custom_node, install_model — Install nodes and models via ComfyUI-Manager
WebSocket features
  • <100ms latency for progress updates (vs 1.5s polling)
  • Node-level tracking: See exactly which node is executing with progress percentage
  • Automatic fallback: Gracefully falls back to polling if WebSocket unavailable
  • Shared connection: Single WebSocket for batch/chain execution (90% reduced traffic)

Set COMFYUI_HOST environment variable for execution/model/output tools:

export COMFYUI_HOST="http://localhost:8188"

See doc/MCP-SETUP.md for full tool list and doc/WEBSOCKET-GUIDE.md for real-time features.

Running MCP

From project root, first build the project, then start the server:

npm run build

npm run mcp

Or without npm: node dist/mcp-server.js. Server works via stdio (stdin/stdout). More details → doc/MCP-SETUP.md.

Connect MCP (Cursor / Claude)

What you need: Node.js 18+, one-time build (npm run build), absolute path to dist/mcp-server.js, restart after config change. If the server fails to start with «spawn node ENOENT», use the full path to node in command (run which node and put that path). See doc/MCP-SETUP.md → Troubleshooting.

Minimal config (knowledge and workflow tools only):

{

"mcpServers": { "comfy-ui-builder": { "command": "node", "args": ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/mcp-comfy-ui-builder/dist/mcp-server.js"] } } }

Use full path in command (e.g. "/opt/homebrew/bin/node") if Cursor/IDE reports «spawn node ENOENT».

With ComfyUI execution (execute_workflow, get_execution_status, list_outputs, etc.): add "env": { "COMFYUI_HOST": "http://127.0.0.1:8188" } to the server block. See doc/MCP-SETUP.md for full checklist, optional env vars (COMFYUI_PATH, COMFYUI_KNOWLEDGE_DIR), and troubleshooting.

Publish on GitHub
  1. Create a new repository on GitHub: name mcp-comfy-ui-builder, visibility Public (or Private). Do not initialize with README, .gitignore, or license (project already has them).
  2. Add remote and push:
   git remote add origin https://github.com/MIt9/mcp-comfy-ui-builder.git

git branch -M main git push -u origin main

  1. If you fork this repo, replace MIt9 with your GitHub username in the URLs above.

Cursor: Settings → MCP; Claude Desktop: config file ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS). Replace the path with your absolute path to dist/mcp-server.js, then restart the app. Full guide: doc/MCP-SETUP.md.
