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)

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.
