model-registry

name	model-registry
description	Curated download URLs and target directories for every model the comfyui-mcp skills reference — checkpoints, VAEs, text encoders, LoRAs — organized by family (Flux, WAN, LTX, Qwen, Z-Image, SD15/SDXL). Use when downloading models with download_model / download_civitai_model, when a workflow fails with a missing-model error, or when setting up a new machine.

Model Registry

One table per family: filename → source URL → target subdir under <COMFYUI>/models/. Use with download_model(url, target_subfolder, filename). This registry grows with every release — if a model you need is missing, use search_models (HuggingFace) or download_civitai_model and consider contributing the row.

Conventions

• HF "resolve" URLs download directly: https://huggingface.co/<repo>/resolve/main/<path>
• 🔒 = gated repo — needs HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN (accept the license on the HF page first)
• CivitAI model-page URLs need download_civitai_model (resolves version → file); raw civitai.com/api/download/... URLs work with download_model + CIVITAI_API_TOKEN
• Always verify the exact filename a workflow's loader expects — model-compatibility skill covers which VAE/CLIP pairs with which architecture

Shared VAEs & text encoders (download these once)

SDXL / SD1.5 community checkpoints (CivitAI)

Use download_civitai_model(model_id) — it resolves the latest version and handles auth:

Model	CivitAI
RedCraft RedZ ImageDX	civitai.com/models/958009
(2027494 entry in model-settings.json)	civitai.com/models/2027494
Copax Timeless	civitai.com/models/copaxTimeless (search by name)

Failure modes

• 404 on an HF resolve URL — the repo restructured. Open the repo page, find the file under "Files", and rebuild the resolve URL.
• 401/403 — gated repo: set HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN after accepting the license, or CIVITAI_API_TOKEN for early-access CivitAI files.
• Wrong dropdown after download — file landed in the wrong models/ subdir; check the Target column and model-compatibility.
• Downloads resume automatically on retry (HTTP Range) — re-run the same download_model call after a network drop.
