# July 15: flatten workflows, CivitAI creator discovery, desktop-tab mirror

> panel_flatten_workflow resolves Get/Set buses, Reroutes, and use-everywhere links in place without moving a single kept node; search_civitai_creators + a creator filter make 'top creators → their models → download' work end-to-end; and the phone can mirror and drive a desktop tab's session.

*July 15, 2026*

v0.35.0 and v0.36.0. The headline tool is
[**`panel_flatten_workflow`**](../blog/flatten-workflows) — plus CivitAI creator
discovery and remote control of a desktop session from the phone.

## `panel_flatten_workflow` — untangle without wrecking the layout

One call flattens the live canvas **in place, preserving the author's layout**:
Get/Set buses, Reroutes, and cg-use-everywhere broadcasts resolve to direct real
links and the virtual nodes are deleted, while kept nodes never move —
groups, positions, colors, and titles survive exactly, and one undo restores. UE
broadcasts materialize from the pack's own computed `extra.ue_links`; real
executable nodes (rgthree Context, Seed Everywhere) are kept. Where
`strip_workflow` produces a clean copy for the agent to run,
flatten fixes the graph you're looking at. [How it works](../blog/flatten-workflows).

## CivitAI creator discovery

* **`search_civitai_creators`** — with no query it returns the site's creator
  leaderboard (rank, score, downloads, likes); with a query it searches usernames.
  A Discord mobile-beta request.
* **`search_civitai_models` gains a `creator` filter** — list one creator's models
  by exact username, with or without a keyword. Both CivitAI search tools are now
  whitelisted on the mobile `call_tool` channel (read-only).
* **`panel_open_civitai`** — the agent opens the panel's CivitAI browser pre-seeded
  with a search (#225).

Together: "show me top creators → their models → download" works end-to-end.

## Desktop-tab mirror — remote control from the phone

The mobile app can **mirror and drive a desktop tab's session** (#227) — see the
same conversation and send into it from the couch — alongside a fix for
workflows-over-tunnel. More on the mobile app in
[the mobile beta post](../blog/comfyui-mobile-app).

## Protocol polish

`set_options` acks are now **cid-correlated** (#228): clients can stamp a request
with an opaque `cid` and get it echoed with `requested_model`, making model-switch
acks exactly attributable (acks aren't FIFO), with an `ok:false` ack on failure.
Fully backward compatible.
