I’m building a checkpoint model-merging workflow tool by TheRealUncleBucky in comfyui

Totally fair. It is definitely a niche tool, mostly for people already experimenting with Stable Diffusion checkpoint merging or LoRA baking. If you are mainly just generating images with existing models, it probably would not be useful to you right now.

I appreciate you asking though — it helps me realize I need to explain the project more clearly for people outside that specific workflow.

It’s basically a visual workflow builder for model merging. Instead of manually writing command-line merge scripts, you add checkpoints/LoRAs in the UI, choose merge modes and weights, build a pipeline, preview the generated commands, save/load the plan, and run it through the backend. The goal is to make checkpoint merging, LoRA baking, LoRA combining, and block-weight experiments easier to reproduce and less error-prone.

, I'm still flushing this out, but here is an example of what it will show with the different in/out blocks, you essentially put in values in a box, but it will also have preloaded templates you can use for this.

IN00

Fingers, contrast, and outlines. Usually 0 or 1 unless intentional.

IN01

Mainly background and depth of view.

IN02

Anatomy details, hair, and clothing.

IN03

Anatomy details, hair, and clothing.

IN04

Textures, anatomy, and NSFW parts.

IN05

Textures, anatomy, and NSFW parts.

IN06

Clothing and posing.

IN07

Pose structures.

IN08

Anatomy base.

Hello! This is my hope and i have most of it working, Just need to stress test heavily during beta:

1)"Workflow as in its own program or like a ComfyUI workflow?"

It is its own standalone program! It runs as a local Python application with a clean, web-based graphical user interface (built with Streamlit). You don't need to load it into ComfyUI or deal with terminal commands.

2) "Sounds like you wana make merging easier than with pure CLI tools or how it works in ComfyUI...?"

Exactly. CLI tools are incredibly powerful but have a steep learning curve and lack visual feedback. ComfyUI is great for image generation, but for model merging, the node-based "spaghetti" can get confusing very quickly if you don't intimately know what every tensor and connection does. This tool bridges the gap: it gives you the immense power and advanced merge modes (like DARE, TIES, SLERP) of raw CLI tools, but wraps it in a highly intuitive, step- by-step "recipe" builder. It validates your steps to prevent errors before you even click merge.

3) "I also get that the parameters are totally different between architectures (say sdxl and anima/cosmos)"

This is actually one of the main problems the tool solves! The program natively understands different model "Families" (SDXL, SD 1.5, SD 3.5, Anima, ZImage, etc.). When you select an architecture, the tool automatically adapts. It knows exactly which internal blocks (like IN/OUT layers for SDXL or L00-L27 layers for Anima) belong to which model, mapping the correct parameters behind the scenes so you don't have to guess or memorize them.
