Standardized plugin and system-extension protocols: JSON Schema validation for plugin manifests, a generic system-service provider registry (LLM providers already on it), a stable PluginRuntime API version, plus security and diagnostics improvements.
Workflows as plugins, the MCP tool surface, and timeline editing are all in: turn a debugged ComfyUI workflow into a plugin, register it and it becomes an MCP tool β people and agents share one capability set. The release runs straight from the extracted folder, no Python or Node.js needed.
videofreestudio.com is up: eight bilingual tutorials (install, plugin install & development, MCP setup, narrow MCP, long-video skill development), plus the demo plugin list and developer entry points.
