ComfyUI beginner friendly HiDream 01 Text-to-Image Workflow with Easy Prompt Saver by Sarcastic TOFU

This is a very simple workflow that helps you to save your HiDream 01 Text to Image Generation Data into a human readable .txt file. This will automatically get and write your metadata to the .txt file. You will find all the saved prompt files that it generated with the images inside the Archive (.Zip) that has the workflow. Also with the Image Saver Simple node used here you may embed the workflow itself with each saved image or save the image and workflow for your work separately.

HiDream.ai was founded in 2023 by Dr. Mei Jianxiong, a prominent Chinese AI researcher and former expert at Baidu and Kingsoft, with the goal of creating advanced generative AI models for design and creativity. The HiDream-O1-Image open-source models were just released on May 8, 2026. The HiDream 01 architecture functions as a multimodal generative model that interprets natural language text prompts and translates them into highly detailed visual assets. It utilizes deep diffusion network technology to iteratively refine random noise into structured images based on the semantic meaning of your instructions. By analyzing vast datasets of paired text and imagery, the system predicts exactly where pixels should align to match your desired style, composition, and lighting effects.

You can download your necessary model file used in this workflow from HuggingFace and LORA from CivitAI (Details are mentioned below). Make sure you have latest enough ComfyUI installation and install any necessary nodes for for this workflow using ComfyUI manager and place the correct files in correct places. Also check out my other workflows for SD 1.5 + SDXL 1.0, Pony, WAN 2.1, WAN 2.2, MagicWAN Image v2, QWEN, HunyuanImage-2.1, HiDream E, Ernie Image, KREA, Chroma, AuraFlow, NoobAI, Illustrious, Lumina2, Z-Image Turbo, Flux.2 Klein 9B & 4B, Flux.1 Dev and Kandinsky Image 5 Lite (T2I & I2I) models. Feel free to toss some yellow Buzz on stuffs you like.

How to use this -

#1. Just select your desired HiDream 01 model files first and

#2. set your desired image dimensions to start

#3. then input your desired image prompt.

#4. select how many images you want (Change the number besides the "Run" button)

#5. select image sampling methods, CFG, steps etc. settings

#6. finally press the run button to generate. That's it..

** LORA usage for this workflow is optional you can use it without any LORAs, use with 1 or 2 or any other number of LORAs, to add new LORAs press the L button on top to lunch LORA Manager on a new tab find your LORA and if you want to use that LORA just click the upward Kite button.

This HuggingFace page has all the HiDream 01 model (base & dev) files. By design from very inception of HiDream 01, it's image generation/editing process uses just a single any of of these all in one checkpoint files.. so you may download and use just one file from here for this workflow.

I have used the fp8 scaled safetensors file for the HiDream 01 base ( hidream_o1_image_fp8_scaled ) for this workflow which is perfect for any 8GB VRAM GPU, if you have 16 GB or higher VRAM GPU you may use the bigger bf16 file.

Also, You may use any external prompt enhancer like ComfyUI's default examples for base & dev models have shown if you know how to modify ComfyUI workflows, but for simplicity I opted not to use any prompt enhancer.
