What it does

Lora Manager is an agent skill from artokun/comfyui-mcp. Author ComfyUI-LoRA-Manager nodes from the panel. Use when adding a LoRA Manager loader, stacker, prompt, or text node, or when paneladdnode refuses AUTOCOMPLETETEXTLORAS / AUTOCOMPLETETEXTPROMPT after waiting for a widget.

Its SKILL.md is about 730 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Fine-tuning and Diffusion and image models. It works with ComfyUI. The repository describes itself as: Local-first, agent-native control plane for ComfyUI — MCP server + sidebar agent that generates images, video & audio, authors and runs workflows, and edits your live graph in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Adding a LoRA Manager loader
  • Paneladdnode refuses AUTOCOMPLETETEXTLORAS / AUTOCOMPLETETEXTPROMPT after waiting for a widget

Example prompts

  • “/lora-manager”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. panel_add_node(class_type="LoRA Text Loader (LoraManager)"). Do not add
  2. Wire MODEL (and CLIP if you have one) through it.
  3. Drive lora_syntax with panel_set_widget or a wired STRING, e.g.
  4. Put the node's trigger_words output into the prompt if the sidecar has any.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6ad6fc0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Lora Manager loads about 726 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 312 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~726

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Author ComfyUI-LoRA-Manager nodes from the panel. Use when adding a LoRA Manager loader, stacker, prompt, or text node, or when panel_add_node refuses AUTOCOMPLETE_TEXT_LORAS / AUTOCOMPLETE_TEXT_PROMPT after waiting for a widget.

ComfyUI-LoRA-Manager

ComfyUI-LoRA-Manager (willmiao) registers Vue autocomplete widgets via getCustomWidgets(). Those widgets are healthy in the ComfyUI menu, and drag-from-palette works, but panel_add_node cannot add the nodes that require them.

The add-node guard polls app.widgets for a constructor. ComfyUI 1.49+ stores getCustomWidgets() results in the frontend widget store, not on app.widgets. The wait always expires after 5s. Reload, panel_refresh_nodes, and retry cannot clear it. That refusal is not a missing pack.

Which nodes panel_add_node will actually add

WorksRefuses (AUTOCOMPLETE_TEXT_*)
LoRA Text Loader (LoraManager)Lora Loader (LoraManager)
core LoraLoaderLora Stacker (LoraManager)
core LoraLoaderModelOnlyWanVideo Lora Select (LoraManager)
Text (LoraManager)
Prompt (LoraManager)

LoRA Text Loader (LoraManager) is the same backend as Lora Loader (LoraManager) (MODEL / CLIP / trigger_words / loaded_loras). The difference is the LoRA input: lora_syntax is a STRING socket (forceInput), so a regular string node or panel_set_widget can drive it.

Syntax (spaces or punctuation between entries):

<lora:lora_name:strength>
<lora:lora_name:model_strength:clip_strength>

Recipe — stack a LoRA from the panel

  1. panel_add_node(class_type="LoRA Text Loader (LoraManager)"). Do not add Lora Loader (LoraManager); it will wait 5s and refuse.
  2. Wire MODEL (and CLIP if you have one) through it.
  3. Drive lora_syntax with panel_set_widget or a wired STRING, e.g. <lora:style/foo.safetensors:0.8>.
  4. Put the node's trigger_words output into the prompt if the sidecar has any.

If LoRA Manager is not installed, use core LoraLoader and set lora_name / strength_model / strength_clip as usual.

Gotchas

  • The refusal names a tab reload. Do not follow that. The constructor will never appear on app.widgets.
  • panel_set_widget on text after a refused add never runs, because nothing was created. The working widget name is lora_syntax.
  • A freshly added Text Loader still needs lora_syntax written; an empty string loads no LoRA.

Sources

  • Official: https://github.com/willmiao/ComfyUI-Lora-Manager for node class names and the lora_syntax format from the pack; no vendor panel-authoring guide exists.
  • Empirical: the panel_add_node AUTOCOMPLETE_TEXT_* refusal, which nodes add cleanly, and the widget-store explanation from observed panel behavior in this repo.
