+# Nano Banana Environment Configuration
+
+## Issues Identified
+1. **ComfyUI-Manager Security Alert**: ComfyUI version outdated; Manager in frozen mode (installations blocked). Defer to separate branch.
+2. **API Key Missing**: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` not configured; Nano Banana fails with "No valid credentials found."
+
+## Design Decisions
+- **Local Docker**: Use `.env` file loaded via `docker-compose.yml` `env_file` directive
+- **RunPod Serverless**: Environment variables set in template interface (per [RunPod docs](https://docs.runpod.io/serverless/development/environment-variables)); code reads `os.environ`
+- **Nano Banana Auth**: Supports two methods:
+  - API approach: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` env var (simpler, primary)
+  - Vertex AI: `PROJECT_ID` + `LOCATION` + ADC (optional, document only)
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Step 1: Create PLAN.md and .env.example
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Create `PLAN.md` at repo root with this plan (living document)
+- Create `.env.example` with `GOOGLE_API_KEY` placeholder and commented Vertex AI vars
+- Expected outcome: Planning artifact tracked; env template ready
+- Success criteria: Both files committed; `.env.example` has clear comments
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Commit after both files created
+- Message: `[ENV-1] Add plan and env example for Nano Banana API keys`
+- Branch: `feature/comfy-nano-banana-setup` (existing)
+- Push: After commit for visibility
+- PR: Update draft PR description with checklist
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: PR diff showing `.env.example` content
+- Feedback needed: "Does `.env.example` cover your needs? Any additional vars?"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking (proceed if no response)
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: After commit
+- Rollback: Delete files and revert commit
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: Wire .env into docker-compose.yml
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Add `env_file: .env` to `comfyui` service
+- Add `GOOGLE_API_KEY` to `environment` section (passes through from `.env`)
+- Expected outcome: Container receives env vars from `.env` file
+- Success criteria: `docker-compose config` shows env_file and environment vars
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Commit after docker-compose.yml change
+- Message: `[ENV-2] Wire .env file into docker-compose for Nano Banana`
+- Branch: Same feature branch
+- Push: After commit
+- PR: Update checklist, add compose snippet to PR description
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: Diff of docker-compose.yml changes
+- Feedback needed: "Confirm env_file approach works for your local setup"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: After commit
+- Rollback: Revert docker-compose.yml change
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: Protect secrets in Git
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Add `.env` to `.gitignore`
+- Ensure `.env.example` remains tracked (not ignored)
+- Expected outcome: Secrets never committed
+- Success criteria: `git status` shows `.env` ignored; `.env.example` tracked
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Commit after .gitignore update
+- Message: `[ENV-3] Ignore .env file, keep example tracked`
+- Branch: Same feature branch
+- Push: After commit
+- PR: Update checklist
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: .gitignore diff
+- Feedback needed: "Confirm .env should be ignored"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: After commit
+- Rollback: Revert .gitignore change
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Local validation with real API key
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Create local `.env` file (not committed) with user's `GOOGLE_API_KEY`
+- Restart container: `docker restart comfy`
+- Verify in logs: No "No valid credentials found" error
+- Test in UI: Nano Banana nodes visible and functional
+- Expected outcome: Node authenticates successfully
+- Success criteria: Logs show successful auth; nodes work in ComfyUI UI
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Commit (empty or documentation) after validation
+- Message: `[ENV-4] Validate Nano Banana with env-based API key - validates auth`
+- Branch: Same feature branch
+- Push: After commit
+- PR: Update checklist, attach log snippet showing successful auth
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: Log snippet showing successful auth; screenshot of nodes in UI
+- Feedback needed: "Confirm API key authentication works; nodes functional?"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking (preferred before merge)
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: After validation commit
+- Rollback: Remove `.env`, restart container, verify error returns
+
+---
+
+### Step 5: Document RunPod configuration
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Update PR description with RunPod env var setup instructions
+- Add note: Set `GOOGLE_API_KEY` in RunPod template env vars (no `.env` file needed)
+- Expected outcome: Clear instructions for RunPod deployment
+- Success criteria: PR description has RunPod section with env var guidance
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Commit (empty or documentation)
+- Message: `[ENV-5] Document RunPod env configuration for Nano Banana`
+- Branch: Same feature branch
+- Push: After commit
+- PR: Update PR description with RunPod section
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: PR description RunPod section
+- Feedback needed: "Does RunPod env var guidance match your setup?"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: After commit
+- Rollback: Edit PR description
+
+---
+
+### Step 6: Cleanup planning artifact (pre-merge)
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+- Copy final `PLAN.md` content to PR description
+- Delete `PLAN.md` file
+- Expected outcome: Clean main branch; plan preserved in PR
+- Success criteria: `PLAN.md` removed; PR description has complete plan
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+- Final commit before merge
+- Message: `[ENV-6] Cleanup planning artifact - plan moved to PR description`
+- Branch: Same feature branch
+- Push: After commit
+- PR: Final PR description update
+
+**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
+- Who: {users}
+- What to show: Final PR ready for review
+- Feedback needed: "Ready for final review and merge?"
+- Blocking: Non-blocking
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+- Natural stopping point: Before merge
+- Rollback: Restore `PLAN.md` if needed
+

+
+## Communication Templates
+
+### After Step 1 (Initial Setup)
+**Notify {users} via PR comment:**
+```
+✅ Step 1 Complete: Plan and .env.example created
+
+What's done:
+- Added PLAN.md (living plan document)

-# Nano Banana Environment Configuration
-
-## Issues Identified
-1. **ComfyUI-Manager Security Alert**: ComfyUI version outdated; Manager in frozen mode (installations blocked). Defer to separate branch.
-2. **API Key Missing**: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` not configured; Nano Banana fails with "No valid credentials found."
-
-## Design Decisions
-- **Local Docker**: Use `.env` file loaded via `docker-compose.yml` `env_file` directive
-- **RunPod Serverless**: Environment variables set in template interface (per [RunPod docs](https://docs.runpod.io/serverless/development/environment-variables)); code reads `os.environ`
-- **Nano Banana Auth**: Supports two methods:
-  - API approach: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` env var (simpler, primary)
-  - Vertex AI: `PROJECT_ID` + `LOCATION` + ADC (optional, document only)
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-### Step 1: Create PLAN.md and .env.example
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Create `PLAN.md` at repo root with this plan (living document)
-- Create `.env.example` with `GOOGLE_API_KEY` placeholder and commented Vertex AI vars
-- Expected outcome: Planning artifact tracked; env template ready
-- Success criteria: Both files committed; `.env.example` has clear comments
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Commit after both files created
-- Message: `[ENV-1] Add plan and env example for Nano Banana API keys`
-- Branch: `feature/comfy-nano-banana-setup` (existing)
-- Push: After commit for visibility
-- PR: Update draft PR description with checklist
-
-**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
-- Who: {users}
-- What to show: PR diff showing `.env.example` content
-- Feedback needed: "Does `.env.example` cover your needs? Any additional vars?"
-- Blocking: Non-blocking (proceed if no response)
-
-**CHECKPOINT:**
-- Natural stopping point: After commit
-- Rollback: Delete files and revert commit
-
----
-
-### Step 2: Wire .env into docker-compose.yml
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Add `env_file: .env` to `comfyui` service
-- Add `GOOGLE_API_KEY` to `environment` section (passes through from `.env`)
-- Expected outcome: Container receives env vars from `.env` file
-- Success criteria: `docker-compose config` shows env_file and environment vars
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Commit after docker-compose.yml change
-- Message: `[ENV-2] Wire .env file into docker-compose for Nano Banana`
-- Branch: Same feature branch
-- Push: After commit
-- PR: Update checklist, add compose snippet to PR description
-
-**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
-- Who: {users}
-- What to show: Diff of docker-compose.yml changes
-- Feedback needed: "Confirm env_file approach works for your local setup"
-- Blocking: Non-blocking
-
-**CHECKPOINT:**
-- Natural stopping point: After commit
-- Rollback: Revert docker-compose.yml change
-
----
-
-### Step 3: Protect secrets in Git
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Add `.env` to `.gitignore`
-- Ensure `.env.example` remains tracked (not ignored)
-- Expected outcome: Secrets never committed
-- Success criteria: `git status` shows `.env` ignored; `.env.example` tracked
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Commit after .gitignore update
-- Message: `[ENV-3] Ignore .env file, keep example tracked`
-- Branch: Same feature branch
-- Push: After commit
-- PR: Update checklist
-
-**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
-- Who: {users}
-- What to show: .gitignore diff
-- Feedback needed: "Confirm .env should be ignored"
-- Blocking: Non-blocking
-
-**CHECKPOINT:**
-- Natural stopping point: After commit
-- Rollback: Revert .gitignore change
-
----
-
-### Step 4: Local validation with real API key
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Create local `.env` file (not committed) with user's `GOOGLE_API_KEY`
-- Restart container: `docker restart comfy`
-- Verify in logs: No "No valid credentials found" error
-- Test in UI: Nano Banana nodes visible and functional
-- Expected outcome: Node authenticates successfully
-- Success criteria: Logs show successful auth; nodes work in ComfyUI UI
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Commit (empty or documentation) after validation
-- Message: `[ENV-4] Validate Nano Banana with env-based API key - validates auth`
-- Branch: Same feature branch
-- Push: After commit
-- PR: Update checklist, attach log snippet showing successful auth
-
-**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**
-- Who: {users}
-- What to show: Log snippet showing successful auth; screenshot of nodes in UI
-- Feedback needed: "Confirm API key authentication works; nodes functional?"
-- Blocking: Non-blocking (preferred before merge)
-
-**CHECKPOINT:**
-- Natural stopping point: After validation commit
-- Rollback: Remove `.env`, restart container, verify error returns
-
----
-
-### Step 5: Document RunPod configuration
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Update PR description with RunPod env var setup instructions
-- Add note: Set `GOOGLE_API_KEY` in RunPod template env vars (no `.env` file needed)
-- RunPod specific configuration instructions:
-  - Go to RunPod console -> Templates -> [Your Template] -> Edit
-  - Scroll to Environment Variables
-  - Key: `GOOGLE_API_KEY`, Value: [Your API Key]
-  - No need for `.env` file in the container image
-  - Code reads `os.environ` which works for both methods
-- Expected outcome: Clear instructions for RunPod deployment
-- Success criteria: PR description has RunPod section with env var guidance
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Commit (empty or documentation)
-- Message: `[ENV-5] Document RunPod env configuration for Nano Banana`
-- Branch: Same feature branch
-- Push: After commit
-- PR: Update PR description with RunPod section
-
-**USER FEEDBACK TOUCHPOINT:**

-- Feedback needed: "Does RunPod env var guidance match your setup?"
-- Blocking: Non-blocking
-
-**CHECKPOINT:**
-- Natural stopping point: After commit
-- Rollback: Edit PR description
-
----
-
-### Step 6: Cleanup planning artifact (pre-merge)
-**IMPLEMENTATION:**
-- Copy final `PLAN.md` content to PR description
-- Delete `PLAN.md` file
-- Expected outcome: Clean main branch; plan preserved in PR
-- Success criteria: `PLAN.md` removed; PR description has complete plan
-
-**GIT TRACKING:**
-- Final commit before merge
-- Message: `[ENV-6] Cleanup planning artifact - plan moved to PR description`
-- Branch: Same feature branch
-- Push: After commit
-- PR: Final PR description update

 # Nano Banana Environment Configuration
 
 ## Issues Identified
+
 1. **ComfyUI-Manager Security Alert**: ComfyUI version outdated; Manager in frozen mode (installations blocked). Defer to separate branch.
 2. **API Key Missing**: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` not configured; Nano Banana fails with "No valid credentials found."
 
 ## Design Decisions
+
 - **Local Docker**: Use `.env` file loaded via `docker-compose.yml` `env_file` directive
 - **RunPod Serverless**: Environment variables set in template interface (per [RunPod docs](https://docs.runpod.io/serverless/development/environment-variables)); code reads `os.environ`
 - **Nano Banana Auth**: Supports two methods:
   - API approach: `GOOGLE_API_KEY` env var (simpler, primary)
   - Vertex AI: `PROJECT_ID` + `LOCATION` + ADC (optional, document only)
+- **Container Rebuild Strategy**: Clean and rebuild containers before testing to ensure fresh state
 
 ## Implementation Steps
 
-### Step 1: Create PLAN.md and .env.example
+### Pre-Hook: Clean and Rebuild Container (Before Testing)
+
 **IMPLEMENTATION:**
+
+- Stop and remove existing containers: `docker compose down` or `docker stop comfy && docker rm comfy`
+- Remove old images (optional, for clean rebuild): `docker compose build --no-cache` or `docker rmi [image-name]`
+- Rebuild Docker image from root `Dockerfile`: `docker compose build`
+- Expected outcome: Fresh container image built from latest Dockerfile
+- Success criteria: Build completes without errors; image ready for testing
+
+**WHEN TO RUN:**
+
+- Before Step 4 (Local validation) - critical
+- Before any testing/validation steps
+- When Dockerfile or entrypoint scripts change
+
+**GIT TRACKING:**
+
+- No commit needed (pre-hook step)
+- Document in PR description as testing prerequisite
+
+**CHECKPOINT:**
+
+- Natural stopping point: After successful build
+- Rollback: Use previous image if build fails
+
+---
+
+### Step 1: Create PLAN.md and .env.example
+
+**IMPLEMENTATION:**
+
 - Create `PLAN.md` at repo root with this plan (living document)
 - Create `.env.example` with `GOOGLE_API_KEY` placeholder and commented Vertex AI vars
 - Expected outcome: Planning artifact tracked; env template ready
 - Success criteria: Both files committed; `.env.example` has clear comments

+
 - Commit after both files created

+## Potential Blockers & Constraints
+
+### Identified Blockers
+
+1. **Container State**: Existing `comfy` container may have stale state - addressed by pre-hook cleanup
+2. **GPU Driver Issues**: Previous `docker compose up` failure due to GPU driver problems - needs investigation
+3. **Nano Banana Installation Status**: Unclear if node is already installed or needs installation
+4. **Container Strategy**: Two containers mentioned (`comfy` vs `comfyui`) - need to standardize approach
+
+### Questions Requiring Clarification
+
+1. **Container Management**: Should we always use `docker compose` commands, or handle standalone `comfy` container?
+2. **GPU Configuration**: What was the specific GPU driver error? May need nvidia-container-toolkit setup.
+3. **Nano Banana Node**: Is ComfyUI_Nano_Banana already installed, or do we need to add installation step?
+4. **Testing Environment**: Are there any constraints on when/how containers can be rebuilt (e.g., data persistence concerns)?

+# RunPod Deployment Configuration
+
+This document describes how to configure environment variables for ComfyUI when deploying to RunPod Serverless.
+
+## Environment Variables Setup
+
+### Required: Google API Key for Nano Banana
+
+1. Go to [RunPod Console](https://www.runpod.io/console/serverless)
+2. Navigate to **Templates** → Select your ComfyUI template → **Edit**
+3. Scroll to **Environment Variables** section
+4. Add the following variable:
+   - **Key**: `GOOGLE_API_KEY`
+   - **Value**: Your Google AI API key (get one from [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey))
+
+### Optional: Vertex AI Configuration
+
+If you prefer to use Vertex AI instead of the Google AI API:
+
+- **Key**: `PROJECT_ID`
+- **Value**: Your GCP project ID
+- **Key**: `LOCATION`
+- **Value**: `us-central1` (or your preferred region)
+
+**Note:** Vertex AI requires Application Default Credentials (ADC) to be configured in your container image.
+
+### Optional: OpenTelemetry Configuration
+
+For observability and monitoring:
+
+- **Key**: `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`
+- **Value**: `http://your-otel-collector:4317`
+- **Key**: `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME`
+- **Value**: `comfyui`
+- **Key**: `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES`
+- **Value**: `service.name=comfyui`
+
+## How It Works
+
+The ComfyUI Docker image is configured to read environment variables directly from `os.environ`, which means:
+
+1. **Local Development**: Variables are loaded from `.env` file via `docker-compose.yml`
+2. **RunPod Deployment**: Variables are set in the RunPod template interface
+3. **Code Compatibility**: No code changes needed—both methods use `os.environ`
+
+## Verification
+
+After setting the environment variables in RunPod:
+
+1. Deploy or restart your serverless endpoint
+2. Check the logs for "GOOGLE_API_KEY" to verify it's set
+3. Test Nano Banana nodes to confirm authentication works
+
+## Differences from Local Setup
+
+| Aspect | Local (Docker Compose) | RunPod Serverless |
+|--------|----------------------|-------------------|
+| **Config Method** | `.env` file | RunPod template UI |
+| **GPU Support** | Optional (can run CPU mode) | Typically GPU-enabled |
+| **Persistence** | Docker volumes | RunPod storage |
+| **API Key Storage** | Local `.env` (gitignored) | RunPod environment vars |
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- Environment variables in RunPod are encrypted at rest
+- Never commit `.env` files with real API keys to Git
+- Rotate your API keys periodically
+- Use different API keys for development vs production if possible

Subject: [PATCH 21/21] [ENV-4] Fix Nano Banana installation with correct
 repository URL

- Update repository URL from jeffy5 to ru4ls (correct repo)
- Add pip install step for Nano Banana dependencies
- Add CUSTOM_NODES_DIR variable to entrypoint script
- Node now installs dependencies from requirements.txt automatically

Repository: https://github.com/ru4ls/ComfyUI_Nano_Banana
