ComfyUI Extension: ComfyUI-WA

ComfyUI-WA Introduction

ComfyUI-WA is an innovative extension that allows you to use ComfyUI workflows directly within WhatsApp. This extension bridges the gap between AI art generation and instant messaging, enabling you to manage and execute your AI workflows through a familiar and widely-used platform. Whether you're an AI artist looking to streamline your workflow or someone who wants to integrate AI capabilities into their daily communication, ComfyUI-WA offers a seamless and user-friendly solution.

How ComfyUI-WA Works

ComfyUI-WA operates by integrating ComfyUI workflows with WhatsApp using the WhatsApp Web API. Essentially, it leverages the WhatsApp Web browser application to manage and execute workflows. Here's a simplified breakdown of how it works:

1. WhatsApp Web Integration: The extension uses the WhatsApp Web API to connect to your WhatsApp account. This is done through a web browser automation tool called Puppeteer, which allows the extension to interact with WhatsApp Web as if it were a human user.
2. Workflow Management: Once connected, you can upload and manage your ComfyUI workflows directly from WhatsApp. This includes selecting workflows, setting parameters, and executing them.
3. Command Interface: ComfyUI-WA provides a set of commands that you can use within WhatsApp to control and interact with your workflows. These commands are simple text inputs that trigger specific actions, making it easy to manage your workflows without needing to switch between different applications.

ComfyUI-WA Features

ComfyUI-WA comes with a variety of features designed to make managing AI workflows through WhatsApp both powerful and intuitive:

• Workflow Upload: Easily upload your ComfyUI workflows to WhatsApp using the workflow button in the WhatsApp dashboard.
• Command Interface: Use simple text commands to manage and execute workflows. For example, /wfs lists all uploaded workflows, and /wf id selects a specific workflow.
• Node Management: View and manage the nodes within your workflows. Commands like /wns list the nodes, and /wn id shows the inputs available for a node.
• Parameter Setting: Set parameters for your workflows using commands like /s node_id input_id value.
• Auto KSampler Seed Change: Enable or disable automatic seed changes for the KSampler node with /sce and /scd.
• Queue Management: Manage the execution queue with commands like /q to queue a workflow and /i to interrupt the queue.
• Multi-User Mode: Allow multiple users to interact with ComfyUI by setting the bot usage mode to multi-user with /m number.

ComfyUI-WA Models

Currently, ComfyUI-WA does not include different models within the extension itself. Instead, it focuses on integrating existing ComfyUI workflows into WhatsApp. This means you can use any models and workflows you have set up in ComfyUI, and manage them through the WhatsApp interface provided by ComfyUI-WA.
