workflow-layout

A ComfyUI workflow layout tool that arranges connected image-generation steps on the canvas. It places nodes from left to right, prevents overlaps, and organizes groups and subgraphs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to tidy a ComfyUI workflow, move nodes into dependency order, fix overlaps, color-code stages, and create or align groups and subgraphs.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually untangle crowded workflow diagrams or guess where nodes should go. The workflow becomes easier to read and inspect.

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

workflow-layout 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 yesterday.

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.

ComfyUI Workflow Layout & Organization

Turn a tangled graph into a clean left-to-right dataflow a human reads at a glance, using the panel_* canvas tools. The golden rule: never lay out blind — read the real node sizes and rail positions first, then compute positions from them.

Primitives (panel tools)

  • panel_get_graph — READ FIRST, every time. Returns, for the graph you're viewing:
    • each node's pos [x,y], size [w,h] (body only), and full_height (the TRUE rendered footprint = title bar + body; use this for vertical stacking),
    • all groups (id, title, color, bounding [x,y,w,h]),
    • and — only when inside a subgraph — the rails: the input / output boundary node positions. Everything below is computed from these numbers.
  • panel_move_node(node_id, [x,y]), panel_set_node_title(node_id, title), panel_set_node_collapsed(node_id, collapsed) (minimize to title bar), panel_set_node_color(node_id, {preset|color|bgcolor}) (color-code stages — presets: red/brown/green/blue/pale_blue/cyan/purple/yellow/black)
  • Groups (colored boxes; nodes stay put): panel_create_group (pass node_ids to auto-wrap, or bounds [x,y,w,h]; color hex), panel_move_group, panel_edit_group, panel_remove_group.
  • Subgraphs (nest nodes into one collapsible node): panel_create_subgraph(node_ids), panel_enter_subgraph / panel_exit_subgraph, panel_get_subgraph, panel_promote_widget, panel_move_rail(rail, [x,y]) (rail = "input"|"output", must be inside the subgraph), panel_expose_subgraph_output(from_node_id, from_output) / panel_expose_subgraph_input(to_node_id, to_input) (expose an interior slot on the boundary rail — must be inside the subgraph), and panel_unpack_subgraph(node_id) (expand/dissolve a subgraph back into the parent — the inverse of panel_create_subgraph).
  • panel_canvas({action:"fit"}) to frame the result; panel_save_workflow to persist.

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.

workflow-layout is a skill published in the GitHub repository sandyup/comfyui-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 79 tokens to every session and 2,306 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
