reload_workspace
Reload the ComfyUI browser tab to apply changed extension JavaScript without restarting the server. Waits for reconnection, and can force reload after saving unsaved canvas edits.
Instructions
Reload the ComfyUI browser tab, and wait for it to come back.
This is the fix for exactly one thing: changed extension JavaScript. The bridge's own JS, and every node pack's, is served from disk on each page load and never re-read otherwise, so editing it takes a reload and nothing else - restarting ComfyUI would cost minutes and achieve the same thing by accident. Installing or upgrading a node is the opposite case and needs restart_comfy, because Python packs are imported once at startup.
It waits for the tab to register again rather than firing and returning, for the reason open_workspace does: a page part-way through loading fails exactly like no page at all.
The browser can refuse. ComfyUI asks "Leave site?" when a workflow has
unsaved edits, and that dialog waits for a human - nothing here can dismiss
it. So a tab with edits is refused by default; force reloads anyway, having
first written the canvas to the export directory so nothing can be lost.
Opening a second tab is the other way round the problem: a new tab loads the
current JavaScript without disturbing this one.
Args: wait: seconds to wait for the tab to reconnect. 0 returns immediately. force: reload even though the browser may put a confirmation on screen. client_id: which tab, when several are open. Defaults to the focused one.
