When to pick this model (vs siblings)

If the user said "Flux Kontext" / "kontext" / "BFL Kontext" explicitly, route here regardless.

Prerequisites

1. RunComfy CLI — npm i -g @runcomfy/cli
2. RunComfy account — runcomfy login opens a browser device-code flow.
3. CI / containers — set RUNCOMFY_TOKEN=<token> instead of runcomfy login.

Endpoints + input schema

blackforestlabs/flux-1-kontext/pro/edit

The schema is intentionally minimal — Kontext leans on prompt + single ref. For multi-image or web-grounded edits, route to Nano Banana Edit.

How to invoke

Default — local edit, preserve everything else:

runcomfy run blackforestlabs/flux-1-kontext/pro/edit \  --input '{    "prompt": "Keep the person'\''s face, pose, and clothing unchanged. Add an orange umbrella in her left hand and a slight smile.",    "image": "https://.../portrait.jpg"  }' \  --output-dir <absolute/path>

With seed for reproducible variant series:

runcomfy run blackforestlabs/flux-1-kontext/pro/edit \  --input '{    "prompt": "Keep the bottle, label, and lighting unchanged. Replace the brand text on the label from \"ALPHA\" to \"AURA\".",    "image": "https://.../bottle.jpg",    "seed": 42  }' \  --output-dir <absolute/path>

Prompting — what actually works

One declarative instruction. Kontext shines on prompts shaped like the docs example: "She is now holding an orange umbrella and smiling". Imperative mood, single change.

Preservation first. Lead with "Keep [identity / pose / framing / brand] unchanged." Then the change. Models honor what's stated up front.

Single ref only — pick the right one. No multi-image fanout here. If you have multiple references, decide which is primary and pass that one. For multi-image flows, route to Nano Banana Edit.

Iterate on small changes. If Kontext drifts, split a compound edit into sequential single-instruction passes (pass 1: change background, pass 2: change clothing).

Aspect ratio — pick from the supported enum. Out-of-list values 422 or crop.

Anti-patterns:

• Compound prompts ("change A and add B and remove C") → drift.
• Trying to fan out to multiple source images → wrong model (use Nano Banana Edit).
• Prompts written in passive voice → less reliable.
• Asking for novel composition without a source image → wrong model (use Flux 2 Klein t2i).

Where it shines

Sample prompts (verified to produce strong results)

Page example:

She is now holding an orange umbrella and smiling

Preservation-led brand edit:

Keep the bottle silhouette, table, and lighting exactly as in the input.Replace only the brand text on the label, from "ALPHA" to "AURA".Same font weight, white on black, centered.

Compositional micro-edit:

Keep the person's face, pose, and clothing unchanged. Add a leathershoulder bag, dark brown, hanging on the right shoulder.

Limitations

• Single source image only. For multi-image flows, use Nano Banana Edit (1–20).
• Public RunComfy docs are minimal — schema fields beyond prompt + image + aspect_ratio + seed may exist; check the model page for the latest field list.
• Compound prompts drift — split into sequential passes.
• For multilingual / embedded text editing, GPT Image 2 edit usually wins.

How it works

The skill invokes runcomfy run blackforestlabs/flux-1-kontext/pro/edit with a JSON body matching the schema. The CLI POSTs to https://model-api.runcomfy.net/v1/models/blackforestlabs/flux-1-kontext/pro/edit, polls the request, fetches the result, and downloads any .runcomfy.net/.runcomfy.com URL into --output-dir. Ctrl-C cancels the remote request before exit.

Security & Privacy

• Token storage: runcomfy login writes the API token to ~/.config/runcomfy/token.json with mode 0600 (owner-only read/write). Set RUNCOMFY_TOKEN env var to bypass the file entirely in CI / containers.
• Input boundary: the user prompt is passed as a JSON string to the CLI via --input. The CLI does NOT shell-expand the prompt; it transmits the JSON body directly to the Model API over HTTPS. No shell injection surface from prompt content.
• Third-party content: image / mask / video URLs you pass are fetched by the RunComfy model server, not by the CLI on your machine. Treat external URLs as untrusted; image-based prompt injection is a known risk for any image-edit / video-edit model.
• Outbound endpoints: only model-api.runcomfy.net (request submission) and *.runcomfy.net / *.runcomfy.com (download whitelist for generated outputs). No telemetry, no callbacks.
• Generated-file size cap: the CLI aborts any single download > 2 GiB to prevent disk-fill from a malicious or runaway model output.
