Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00028 | $0.02952 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.01476 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00590 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00295 |
Grade A, and why
prompt-engineering 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 4d 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.
This is a copy
94% identical to prompt-engineering — 39 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

ComfyUI Prompt Engineering
CLIP Text Encoding Fundamentals
ComfyUI uses CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training) text encoders to convert text prompts into conditioning tensors. The CLIPTextEncode node takes a text string and a CLIP model, producing a CONDITIONING output for the KSampler.
Token Limit
CLIP processes text in 77-token chunks. Each word is typically 1-3 tokens. Prompts exceeding 77 tokens are silently truncated unless you use the BREAK token or a multi-clip encoding node.
Weight Syntax
Emphasis (Attention Weights)
Adjust how strongly the model attends to specific words or phrases:
| Syntax | Effect | Equivalent Weight |
|---|---|---|
(word:1.3) |
Increase emphasis by 30% | Explicit weight 1.3 |
(word:0.7) |
Decrease emphasis by 30% | Explicit weight 0.7 |
(word) |
Slight increase | (word:1.1) |
((word)) |
Moderate increase | (word:1.21) — 1.1^2 |
(((word))) |
Strong increase | (word:1.331) — 1.1^3 |
[word] |
Slight decrease | (word:0.9091) — 1/1.1 |
[[word]] |
Moderate decrease | (word:0.8264) — 1/1.1^2 |
Weight Rules
- Valid range: 0.0 to 2.0 (going beyond 1.5 often causes artifacts)
- Default weight: 1.0 for unmodified tokens
- Nesting stacks multiplicatively:
((word))= 1.1 * 1.1 =(word:1.21) - Phrases:
(red sports car:1.3)applies weight to the entire phrase - Mixing:
(detailed face:1.4), (blurry background:0.6)— combine in one prompt
Examples
a (beautiful:1.3) woman with (flowing red hair:1.2), wearing a blue dress, (sharp focus:1.1)
(masterpiece:1.4), (best quality:1.3), a knight in (ornate armor:1.2), standing on a cliff, (dramatic lighting:1.1), cinematic
BREAK Token
The BREAK keyword forces CLIP to end the current 77-token chunk and start processing subsequent text in a new chunk. This is critical for long prompts.
When to Use BREAK
- Prompt exceeds ~60 words (approaching the 77-token limit)
- You want to separate conceptually distinct parts of the prompt
- Certain details are being ignored (they may be past the 77-token cutoff)
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.

prompt-engineering is a skill published in the GitHub repository sandyup/comfyui-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 2,952 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 94% identical to prompt-engineering, differing in 39 lines, and is treated as a copy.
