The Studio canvas is fed by a layered node browser:
- The Model Library palette on the left (Audio, Image, Video, LLM, Task tabs).
- The Assets and Toolbox / Comfy Library palettes accessed from the other inner-toolbar icons.
- The universal node search, opened by double-clicking anywhere on the canvas, which spans every catalog above plus Blueprints (saved subgraphs / use cases), Partner models, and Extensions.
This page covers the universal search, where the recommendation system, “use cases”, and tasks all live.
Opening the search
Double-click on an empty area of the canvas. The “Add a node…” dialog appears:
The dialog has three regions:
- Top filter pills: layout toggle (sidebar / no sidebar), Blueprints, Comfy, Partner, Extensions, Input ▾, Output ▾.
- Left category sidebar: contextual to the active filter. Default is Most relevant (heuristic).
- Result list (center): one row per match. Tag chips on the right show source (Blueprint / Documents / GMI_Nodes / …).
- Right preview panel: detail of the highlighted result with INPUTS / OUTPUTS, description, and quick “Add” affordance.
A text search at the top searches across every catalog regardless of which filter pill is active. Pressing Enter adds the highlighted node to the canvas at the click position.
Blueprints, Use Cases
The Blueprints filter is GMI Studio’s library of prebuilt mini-workflows (called subgraph blueprints). Think of them as use-case starting points: drop one onto the canvas and you get a ready-to-tweak subgraph instead of having to wire from scratch.
Categories shown in the sidebar:
- Subgraph Blueprints (top-level)
- 3D
- Audio
- Image generation
- Image Tools
- Text generation
- Video generation
- Video Tools
Sample blueprints:
| Blueprint | Category | Description |
|---|
| Brightness and Contrast | Image Tools / Color | User generated subgraph blueprint |
| Image Captioning (gemini) | Text generation / Image | User generated subgraph blueprint |
| Text to Image (Flux.1 Dev) | Image generation | User generated subgraph blueprint |
| Image Inpainting (Flux.1 Fill Dev) | Image generation | User generated subgraph blueprint |
| Image Blur | Image Tools / Blur | User generated subgraph blueprint |
| Prompt Enhance | Text generation / Prompt | User generated subgraph blueprint |
Comfy, native ComfyUI nodes
The Comfy filter narrows results to native ComfyUI nodes (anything sourced from the upstream ComfyUI repo). The sidebar categories include Comfy, Assets, audio, Comfy Library, image, latent, Model Library, Toolbox, utils.
Examples: VAE Decode, VAE Encode, SaveSVGNode, Image Stitch, ResizeAndPadImage, ImageFlip. The right preview shows the canonical input/output spec of each node. For example, VAE Decode has INPUTS samples LATENT + vae VAE and OUTPUTS IMAGE.
Partner, provider model nodes
The Partner filter shows nodes contributed by integrated partners. The sub-category Use Case Models is GMI’s curated set of single-purpose model nodes that do exactly one thing well.
Sidebar: Partner / api node / Assets / Model Library.
Sample partner nodes (Bria family):
| Node | Sub-category | Description |
|---|
| Bria Fibo | Model Library / General Image Models | Generate a single image from text prompt |
| Bria Eraser | Model Library / Use Case Models | Generate a single image from text prompt with a mask |
| Bria Genfill | Model Library / Use Case Models | Generate a single image from text prompt using a mask |
| Bria Fibo Edit | Model Library / Use Case Models | Generate a single image from text prompt using a mask |
| Bria Fibo Restyle / Recolor | Model Library / Use Case Models | Restyle or recolor an image |
prompt STRING, OUTPUTS image IMAGE / image_url STRING / file_name STRING.
The Extensions filter surfaces nodes tagged GMI_Nodes (Studio-specific utilities) and Documents (document processing).
Sample extension nodes:
| Node | Tag | Sub-category |
|---|
| Image Remove Background (rembg) | GMI_Nodes | Toolbox / Image Utilities |
| Detail Transfer | GMI_Nodes | Toolbox / Image Utilities |
| Document Loader | Documents | Assets / document_processing |
| PDF to Image (Multi-Page) | Documents | Assets / document_processing |
| PDF Page Splitter | Documents | Assets / document_processing |
| Image Selector | Documents | Assets / document_processing |
image IMAGE + model COMBO (e.g. u2net) inputs and IMAGE / MASK outputs.
The Input ▾ and Output ▾ pills open a multi-select dropdown of data types:
Types include * (any), AUDIO, AUDIO_UI, BOOLEAN, BOUNDING_BOX, COMBO, FILE_3D, and many more. Use these to find “every node that takes an IMAGE” or “every node that produces a MASK”.
This is the recommendation engine in its purest form. Combined with the type filter on the socket you’re trying to satisfy, it shows you exactly the nodes that can wire into your current selection.
Adding a result to the canvas
- Click a row to highlight and preview.
- Press Enter or double-click the row to add it at the cursor position.
- Drag the row onto a specific spot on the canvas.
Newly-added nodes inherit the canvas default color. Use the node selection toolbar to recolor them.
Saving your own blueprints
Any selection of nodes plus connections can become a blueprint:
- Select the nodes (drag a marquee or
Shift+click).
- Right-click and choose Save Selected as Template (visible in the canvas right-click menu).
- The saved template becomes a User generated subgraph blueprint and shows up under Blueprints in this search dialog.
This is how teams build internal use-case libraries. Once a wiring pattern is good, save it as a blueprint and your teammates can find it in seconds.
