comfyui-mcp-server-node

This is improved node.js version of Joe Norton's python project (https://github.com/joenorton/comfyui-mcp-server).

A lightweight MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that bridges AI agents (like Cursor, Claude, etc.) with a local ComfyUI instance. It enables AI agents to generate and iteratively refine images, audio, and video through conversational tool calls.

Features

• Image Generation: Generate images using Stable Diffusion through ComfyUI

• Audio Generation: Generate audio/music using AceStep workflow

• Workflow System: PARAM_* placeholder system for easy workflow customization

• Asset Management: Track, view, and manage generated assets

• Job Management: Monitor queue, check job status, cancel jobs

• Configuration: List available models

Quick Start

Option 1: Via npx (for MCP clients)

No local clone needed. Add to your MCP client configuration (Cursor, Claude, etc.):

"comfyui": {
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "comfyui-mcp-server-node"],
  "env": {
    "COMFYUI_URL": "http://localhost:8188",
    "COMFY_MCP_WORKFLOW_DIR": "/path/to/workflows",
    "COMFY_MCP_ASSET_TTL_HOURS": "24"
  }
}

Note: ComfyUI must be running at COMFYUI_URL before the MCP client connects.

Option 2: Local development

git clone https://github.com/yar3333/comfyui-mcp-server-node.git
cd comfyui-mcp-server-node
npm install
npm run build

Then start:

Workflow System

Workflows are stored as JSON files in the workflows/ directory. The system automatically discovers workflows and exposes them as MCP tools. Parameters are defined using the PARAM_* placeholder system:

• PARAM_INT_SEED - Integer parameter for seed

• PARAM_FLOAT_CFG - Float parameter for CFG scale

• PARAM_STR_SAMPLER_NAME - String parameter for sampler name

• PARAM_PROMPT - String parameter for prompt

Test

Prerequisites: ComfyUI running at http://localhost:8188, server built and started.

# Run the test client
npx ts-node test_client.ts

# With custom prompt
npx ts-node test_client.ts -p "a beautiful sunset over mountains"

# Run unit tests
npm test
