train-character-lora

train-character-lora is a skill for Claude Code from artokun/comfyui-mcp. It costs 97 tokens per session (1,406 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A local training workflow for making a character or person-specific LoRA, a small model add-on that helps an image model reproduce a visual identity. It trains on FLUX.1-dev using photos, a local GPU Docker setup, and ComfyUI.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to train character-identity LoRAs from photographs on a local GPU. The described scope covers character LoRAs for FLUX.1-dev, not style or editing LoRAs.
Why use it?
It organizes dataset preparation, training, progress monitoring, and placing the finished LoRA where ComfyUI can use it.

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

train-character-lora 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 12d 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.

Train a Character LoRA (local, Flux.1-dev)

Overview

The trainer runs ostris ai-toolkit's run.py inside a headless GPU Docker container, driven through the three train_* MCP tools. You (the LLM) are the UI. Each takes an action: train_prepare_dataset owns the datasets, train_start owns the jobs, and train_doctor owns the trainer itself. You generate the dataset, launch the job, watch progress, and the finished LoRA lands in ComfyUI models/loras/ and the LoRA catalog without further steps.

  • Base model: FLUX.1-dev (the best proven character consistency; needs ~24GB VRAM with quantization, RTX 4090 class).
  • Phase-1 scope: character LoRAs only. Style/slider/edit and other bases come later.

The flow (tool sequence)

  1. train_doctor {action:"doctor"}. Preflight once per session. Checks docker daemon, --gpus all GPU passthrough, trainer image, HF_TOKEN. If image:false, run train_doctor {action:"build_image"} (one-time, several minutes, since it builds CUDA plus torch plus ai-toolkit). If hfTokenSet:false, warn the user: the first run downloads FLUX.1-dev (gated HF repo) and needs HF_TOKEN in the MCP server env.
  2. train_prepare_dataset {action:"prepare"}. Stage the images. See "Dataset" below.
  3. train_start {action:"start"}. Launch. Returns a job id at once; training runs detached.
  4. train_start {action:"status", id}. Poll progress (progress.step/totalSteps/loss, recent samples, log tail). Poll on a slow cadence (every few minutes). A 2000-step run is roughly an hour on a 4090. Don't block on it.
  5. Done. status:"completed" means the .safetensors was copied to models/loras/<name>.safetensors and upserted into the LoRA catalog (result has the paths and catalog id). Verify by loading it in a Flux workflow (LoraLoaderModelOnly, strength 1.0) with the trigger word in the prompt.

Dataset guidance

Call train_prepare_dataset {action:"prepare"} with name, items: [{path, caption?}, ...] and a defaultCaption.
