FLUX
FLUX.2 klein
Section titled “FLUX.2 klein”FLUX.2 klein needs very few steps and is fast. It comes in 4B and 9B sizes. Besides generating, it can be used for Edit by instruction in Refine.
Required files
Section titled “Required files”| File | Goes in | 4B | 9B |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main model | diffusion_models |
flux-2-klein-4b or similar |
the 9B main model |
| VAE | vae |
flux2-vae |
flux2-vae |
| Text encoder | text_encoders |
qwen_3_4b |
qwen_3_8b_fp8mixed |
qwen_3_4b is the same file Z-Image uses, so the asset library may label it Z-Image. The 9B main model can only be downloaded after signing in to Hugging Face and accepting its licence.
Recommended settings (distilled version)
Section titled “Recommended settings (distilled version)”| Item | Default |
|---|---|
| Steps | 4 |
| CFG | 1 |
| Sampler | Euler |
| shift | 9.89 (left at the default, it adjusts automatically to the resolution and steps) |
Measured on an RTX 5080, the 4B version takes about 2 seconds per 1024×1024 image.
FLUX.1
Section titled “FLUX.1”FLUX.1 comes as dev, schnell and Kontext. Kontext is used for Edit by instruction in Refine.
Required files
Section titled “Required files”FLUX.1 model files come in two forms, and both work:
- All-in-one files: the main model, T5, CLIP-L and VAE in a single file (the form common on model sites); put it in
checkpoints. Just choose it; if matching VAE and text encoder files are in your folders, those are used first. - Main model only: put it in
diffusion_modelsand add these files:
| File | Goes in | File name |
|---|---|---|
| VAE | vae |
ae (shared with Z-Image) |
| Text encoder | text_encoders |
t5xxl_fp16 or the fp8 version |
| CLIP-L | text_encoders |
clip_l (used automatically; no need to choose it) |
The generate panel’s “Encoder” slot refers to T5.
Recommended settings
Section titled “Recommended settings”| Version | Steps | CFG | Sampler |
|---|---|---|---|
| dev | 20 | 3.5 | Euler |
| schnell | 4 | 1 | Euler |
| Kontext | 28 | 2.5 | Euler |
For dev and Kontext, CFG is the official guidance value, usually 2–4. Each step is computed once and the negative prompt isn’t used.
Measured on an RTX 5080, the dev fp8 all-in-one file takes about 25 seconds at 896×1152 (the main model doesn’t fit entirely in 16 GB of graphics memory, so it’s streamed automatically).
Kontext file names
Section titled “Kontext file names”Kontext has the same weight shapes as ordinary FLUX.1 dev, so CoCo goes by the file name: it must contain kontext to appear in the Edit by instruction model list.
LoRAs for both FLUX.1 and FLUX.2 klein work; CoCo identifies their architecture from the file contents.
Not supported yet
Section titled “Not supported yet”Reference images (ControlNet), the FLUX.1 Fill / Canny / Depth versions, and Chroma.
