A ComfyUI custom node package that silently tracks which nodes and packages you actually use. Helps identify unused packages that are safe to remove — keeping your ComfyUI install lean.
A ComfyUI custom node package that silently tracks which nodes, packages, and model files you actually use. Helps identify unused packages and models that are safe to remove — keeping your ComfyUI install lean.
## Features
- **Silent tracking** — hooks into every prompt submission, zero config needed
- **Node & model tracking** — tracks custom node packages and model files (checkpoints, VAEs, ControlNets, etc.) separately
- **Per-package classification** — packages are sorted into tiers based on usage recency
- **Smart aging** — packages gradually move from "recently unused" to "safe to remove" over time
- **Uninstall detection** — removed packages are flagged separately, historical data preserved
- **Per-model classification** — models grouped by type (checkpoints, vae, …) with the same recency tiers
- **Smart aging** — items gradually move from "recently unused" to "safe to remove" over time
- **Uninstall detection** — removed packages/models are flagged separately, historical data preserved
- **Expandable detail** — click any package to see individual node-level stats
- **Non-blocking** — DB writes happen in a background thread, no impact on workflow execution

**Models tab**

- Sections per model type (checkpoints, vae, controlnet, …)
- Per-model table showing execution count, last used date, and status

1. Registers a prompt handler via `PromptServer.instance.add_on_prompt_handler()`
2. On every prompt submission, extracts `class_type` from each node in the workflow
2. On every prompt submission, extracts `class_type` from each node and the full prompt dict
3. Offloads recording to a background thread (non-blocking)
4. Maps each class_type to its source package using `RELATIVE_PYTHON_MODULE`
5. Upserts per-node counts and timestamps into SQLite
6. On stats request, merges DB data with current node registry and classifies by recency
5. Detects model file selections by introspecting each node's `INPUT_TYPES()` for folder-dropdown inputs, then resolves filenames via `folder_paths`
6. Upserts per-node and per-model counts and timestamps into SQLite
7. On stats request, merges DB data with current node registry / installed models and classifies by recency
## Data Storage
All data is stored in `usage_stats.db` in the package directory.
All data is stored in `<ComfyUI user dir>/nodes_stats/usage_stats.db` (survives extension reinstalls).
