i found a 133k-star github repo that turns ai generation into a graph you can rerun instead of rebuilding from zero
comfyui splits image, video and editing into separate branches, so one bad output does not kill the whole workflow
[here’s the setup i’d use:]
1. install it
pip install comfy-cli
comfy install
comfy launch
2. check the machine
comfy system-stats
3. add the models
checkpoints → models/checkpoints
vae → models/vae
loras → models/loras
4. build around stages
prompt → image → video → edit → review → output
keep every expensive step separate so changing the end does not restart the beginning
5. run it
comfy launch –background
change one weak branch, queue it again, keep everything that already worked
6. free memory
comfy free –free-memory
same reason the picsart routing setup works: one reusable system, fewer restarts.
