Shrug-Prompter: Unified VLM Integration for ComfyUI

1

Last updated
2025-07-06

Clean and efficient nodes for ComfyUI that facilitate the integration of vision language models (VLMs) into video generation workflows. These nodes optimize processes such as keyframe analysis and context-aware prompt generation while addressing common challenges associated with memory management and looping.

  • Supports local vision LLMs, offering a modular approach for various workflows.
  • Enhances performance through features like pushdown image resizing and smart batching.
  • Provides a collection of pre-built templates to streamline prompt generation for specific use cases.

Context

This repository features a set of nodes known as Shrug Nodes designed for ComfyUI, aimed at connecting vision language models (VLMs) to video generation tasks. The primary goal is to automate the creation of context-sensitive prompts by analyzing keyframes, thus simplifying what would otherwise be a manual and often tedious process.

Key Features & Benefits

The Shrug Nodes are equipped with several practical features that enhance usability and performance. They include state management, keyframe extraction, and batching capabilities, which streamline workflows that require vision-to-text functionalities. Additionally, the nodes are designed to be memory-efficient, addressing common pitfalls in resource management during intensive operations.

Advanced Functionalities

One of the standout features is the ability to handle looping and accumulation of results across iterations, which is crucial for workflows that involve multiple frames or images. The nodes also support dynamic resizing of images sent to the server, significantly improving processing speed and reducing memory overhead. Furthermore, users can load custom prompt templates, allowing for tailored workflows that meet specific project needs.

Practical Benefits

The integration of these nodes into ComfyUI significantly improves workflow efficiency by automating prompt generation and reducing manual input. Users can expect enhanced control over video generation processes, leading to higher quality outputs with less effort. The modular design allows for flexibility in adapting the nodes to various projects, ensuring that users can optimize their workflows according to their specific requirements.
