anima-base

anima-base is a skill for Claude Code from artokun/comfyui-mcp. It costs 66 tokens per session (5,116 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A ComfyUI text-to-image workflow for anime, manga, and other illustrated artwork. It uses the ANIMA 1.0 model, which accepts both descriptive sentences and Danbooru-style tags, a common tagging format for anime images.

In plain words
What is it for?
Generating anime characters, manga-like images, illustrations, and anime inpainting, which means changing part of an existing image.
Why use it?
It provides a model suited to illustrated styles rather than realistic photographs and is designed to run with less than 6 GB of video memory.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

anima-base scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

ANIMA 1.0 (Anima Base Ultra) Text-to-Image Workflows

Overview

Anima is a ~2B-parameter anime / illustration text-to-image base model from CircleStone Labs, made in collaboration with Comfy Org. It is not SDXL-lineage. The architecture is NVIDIA Cosmos-Predict2-2B-Text2Image (a DiT / flow model), trained on several million anime images plus ~800k non-anime artistic images. It suits anime, manga, and illustrated characters and styles, not realism.

Key traits:

  • Accepts Danbooru-style tags and/or natural language in the same prompt.
  • Very low VRAM. It generates and trains on <6GB VRAM and runs on any PC that can run SDXL/Illustrious.
  • License: CircleStone Labs Non-Commercial License, with NVIDIA Open Model License terms on the weights and derivatives. Generated images are usable commercially per the model card. Verify the current license text before relying on this.

ComfyUI loads it with standard split-file loaders, not a single checkpoint:

Component Node Model file Folder Notes
Diffusion model UNETLoader anima-base-v1.0.safetensors models/diffusion_models/ weight_dtype default; ~4GB fp
Text encoder CLIPLoader qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors models/text_encoders/ Qwen3-0.6B base; type": "stable_diffusion" in this pack
VAE VAELoader qwen_image_vae.safetensors models/vae/ Qwen-Image VAE (~254MB)

Verified from the pack's workflow JSON: CLIPLoader widget values are ["qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors", "stable_diffusion", "default"]. The HF model card describes standard loaders; the exact CLIP type string stable_diffusion is what the Aitrepreneur "Anima Base Ultra" workflow ships. Use it as-is.

Installation

The "Anima Base Ultra" pack (by Aitrepreneur) installs custom nodes and downloads all models. Models are mirrored on https://huggingface.co/Aitrepreneur/FLX/resolve/main; the official source is https://huggingface.co/circlestone-labs/Anima.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
