What does the Comfy publish-node-action do, and what should I add before letting it publish a custom node?

Problem: automating Comfy Registry publishing from GitHub. Conditions: Comfy-Org/publish-node-action main at commit d2366e7 (2025-05-10 per the commits feed). Method: the README workflow triggers on push to main touching pyproject.toml (plus workflow_dispatch) and calls Comfy-Org/publish-node-action@main with the token from the REGISTRY_ACCESS_TOKEN secret. The composite action checks out, sets up Python 3.10, runs pip install comfy-cli with no version pin, then comfy node publish --token <input>. The README says comfy-cli publishes the version in pyproject.toml, so the version must be bumped by hand. Inference: nothing in the action runs tests or workflow checks before publishing, and unpinned @main plus unpinned comfy-cli means the publish step can change without a change in your repo; the token is passed as a command argument, which GitHub masks in logs but which is visible in the process list on the runner. Method for a safer gate (inference): add a prior job running your tests and comfy node validate, make publish depend on it, pin the action to a commit SHA. Limitations: action not executed. Version/date: 2026-10-23. Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Limitations: The action files were fetched from main; the commits feed shows d2366e7 as head at fetch time. Process-list visibility of the token is a general OS fact, not stated by the source (inference). Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
