🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not reject valid per-layer configurations because optional metadata is malformed.

If a checkpoint has valid .comfy_quant tensors and a malformed _quantization_metadata string, this new parse fails before the reader can use the preferred per-layer configurations. The same checkpoint previously reached tensor loading. Ignore an unusable optional layer map when the applicable per-layer configurations are already available, or limit the error to a layer that requires the map. ComfyUI documents .comfy_quant as the per-module configuration. (github.com)

Review comment at @src/model_io/safetensors_io.cpp at line 257:
Adjust the quantization metadata parsing in the safetensors reader so malformed
optional _quantization_metadata does not abort loading when valid per-layer
.comfy_quant configurations are available. Ignore the unusable layer map in that
case, while still report or reject it only when a layer actually requires the
map; preserve the preferred per-layer configuration path.

<location>https://github.com/Starnodes2024/comfyui-starnodes-modelconverter</location>
<excerpt>citeturn0search0 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: last week;   2. comfyui-starnodes-modelconverter ...   * ConvRot Detection &amp; Display: The Layers Info node now correctly detects and displays ConvRot rotation metadata including group size (e.g., `INT8_CONVROT (GS:256)`) for both per-tensor `.comfy_quant` blobs and legacy global `_quantization_metadata` headers. ... The converted model is saved to `models/diffusion_models/` with proper quantization metadata.
# ⭐ StarNodes Model Converter v1.5.5

## 🆕 New Features

  * **23.9.26 W6A8 Added 24.9.26 Ming image profile. Captains minmax changelog: 26.9 Qwen-Image-2.1 MaxQ &amp; Z-Image MaxQ profiles added
  * **Star Checkpoint Saver (AIO) Saves model+clip+vae as one AIO checkpoint. Works with mixed quantizations (e.g. NVFP4 model + NVFP4 text encoder + BF16 VAE)
  * Star Model Layers Info Node: Added a new dedicated analysis node (`⭐ Star Model Layers Info`) that inspects `.safetensors` and `.gguf` files to report per-layer quantization formats, parameter counts, and tensor sizes. Supports Normal View (flat list) and Tree View (hierarchical grouped view with layer ranges).
  * ConvRot Detection &amp; Display: The Layers Info node now correctly detects and displays ConvRot rotation metadata including group size (e.g., `INT8_CONVROT (GS:256)`) for both per-tensor `.comfy_quant` blobs and legacy global `_quantization_metadata` headers.
  * AIO Prefix Normalization: The Layers Info analyzer now handles the `model.diffusion_model.` prefix mismatch between tensor keys and metadata keys. Metadata stored by the converter strips `AIO_MODEL_PREFIX`, so the analyzer tries stripping `model.diffusion_model.`, `diffusion_model.`, and `model.` (longest-first) plus suffix matching as a last resort.
  * Quantization Profile Export: Added optional `save_profile` toggle to the Layers Info node that exports a layer-by-layer JSON profile compatible with Star Ultimate Model Converter Pro&#39;s profile import.
  * AWQ W4A16 Support: Added full AWQ W4A16 quantization target format using comfy-kitchen&#39;s `TensorCoreAWQW4A16Layout` with asymmetric scale + zero-point storage and proper ComfyUI loader-compatible tensor naming (`_scale`, `_zero`).
  * W4A8 ConvRot Support: Added W4A8 ConvRot target format using comfy-kitchen&#39;s `AsymW4A8Int8Layout` with configurable group size (16), ConvRot rotation (GS:256), codebook, and symmetric quantization. Includes robust suffix mapping for `s_rel`, `s_channel`, and `codebook` tensors.
  * SVDQuant W4A4: Added SVDQuant W4A4 target format with configurable rank (8–512) and refinement iterations. 
## 🔧 Fixes &amp; Improvements

  * 2 new Text encoder profiles for maximum quality
  * Metadata Key Prefix Matching: Fixed critical bug where the Layers Info analyzer could not match legacy metadata entries for AIO-converted models. The converter strips `model.diffusion_model.` when writing metadata keys, but the analyzer previously only tried exact match or stripping `model.`. Now uses ordered prefix stripping (`model.diffusion_model.` → `diffusion_model.` → `model.`) plus 3-segment suffix fallback.
  * Legacy Label Parity: Fixed `_label_from_legacy_meta` to display group sizes (`GS:256`, `QGS:64`) and handle all format types (`awq_w4a16`, `int4_cr`, `nvfp4`, `mxfp8`) identically to `_label_from_comfy_quant`. Previously returned bare labels like `INT8_CONVROT` without group size info.
  * ConvRot Metadata Integrity: Verified that `convrot: true` is only written to metadata when rotation actually succeeds. The native path uses a `convrot_used` flag gated by try/except; the comfy-kitchen path writes it only after successful `quantize()` call. Failed rotations fall back to unrotated INT8 or BF16 without false metadata.
  * Dequantization Safety: Added input validation that rejects models containing lossless-incompatible formats (NVFP4, MXFP8, W4A4, AWQ W4A16, ConvRot-rotated INT8) when attempting to dequantize for re-conversion. Prevents silent quality degradation…[truncated]</excerpt>

Match StarNodes metadata names to their tensor names.

StarNodes AIO metadata strips model.diffusion_model. from layer names, while tensor keys retain that prefix. The exact lookups at src/model_io/safetensors_io.cpp:264-265 skip the int8_convrot configuration even when both tensors exist. The affected weight then does not enter the INT8 tensorwise path.

Normalize only the documented prefixes before matching. Accept a normalized name only when its .weight and .weight_scale tensors identify one unambiguous module. Add coverage for an AIO checkpoint with _quantization_metadata and no matching .comfy_quant tensor.

Review comment at @src/model_io/safetensors_io.cpp around lines 264 - 265:
Update the StarNodes metadata-to-tensor matching near the weight and
weight_scale lookups in safetensors loading to normalize only the documented
model.diffusion_model. prefix before comparison. Require the normalized name to
resolve unambiguously to both corresponding tensors, so valid int8_convrot
entries enter the tensorwise INT8 path without broad matching; add coverage for
an AIO checkpoint with _quantization_metadata and no matching .comfy_quant
tensor.

Use the ConvRot default when the group size is absent.

If an int8_convrot layer omits both group-size keys, this code sets group_size to zero. The validation at lines 388-395 then rejects the weight, even when its input width supports the documented default of 256. Apply that default for rotated INT8 layers, then retain the existing divisibility check. (github.com)

Review comment at @src/model_io/safetensors_io.cpp around lines 273 - 274:
Update the group-size fallback in the layer configuration parsing so an
int8_convrot layer missing both convrot_groupsize and group_size uses the
documented default of 256 instead of zero. Preserve the existing validation and
divisibility check for other layer types and explicitly configured values.
