š¼ļø MGC - Metadata Gallery Converter
MGC is a lightweight, portable app with a simple goal:
Make it easy to view, edit, and convert metadata from .png images generated by ComfyUI, Stable Diffusion, or TensorARTāand make it all play nice with Civitai.
š Update!
If your antivirus flags it as a false positive, donāt worryāitās because I used auto-py-to-exe to package everything neatly and hide a bunch of Python folders.
I'm currently waiting for the digital signature.
And yesāit's open source. You can also find the version on my GitHub, or just check the included files in the article.
š” Tip: If you prefer not to run it on your PC, try the Google Colab version. It's simpler, runs in your browser, and works just as well.
šÆ Why I Made This
Honestly, I was just tired of copying prompts manually.
When uploading images from TensorART to Civitai, the metadata often goes missingāeven if Tiefsee can read it, retyping everything was a pain.
So I built MGC to fix that.
With it, you can:
Browse your images in a gallery view
Instantly see all prompts and settings
Copy, edit, and save them however you want
Export them in a Civitai-compatible format
š ļø Key Features
ā Thumbnail gallery (just drop a folder or drag in images)
ā Supports
.png,.jpg,.jpeg, and.webpā Quick navigation with ā and ā keys
ā Clearly shows:
Positive & Negative Prompts
Steps, Sampler, Seed, Model, etc.
ā One-click āCopy Allā
ā Convert to Civitai format instantly
ā Save prompts as
.txtor embed them back into.pngā Language toggle (English & Spanish)
ā Alerts you if metadata is missing (especially for
.jpg)
š¦ How to Use It
Extract the
.zipwherever you like (even a USB stick).Run
MGC_byAGGA.exe.Drop a folder or open one with the š button.
Click a thumbnail or use the arrows.
Thatās it ā the metadata shows up automatically.
From there, you can:
Copy or edit the prompts
Save them as
.txtSave them as
.pngwith fixed metadataConvert them to Civitai format
ā¹ļø Requirements
Works on Windows 8 or newer
Doesnāt need installation
Doesnāt need internet
Just works š
š§Ŗ Still Improving
This app is still growing.
If you find a weird image format, or have ideas for features youād love to see, feel free to share them.
I made this for myselfā¦ but also for you, if youāre tired of redoing the same steps every time. š
šØāš» Made by a frustrated user (me)
Who just wanted his prompts back.
Description
I did this because I usually test some Lora in TensorArt and sometimes the metadata is hidden when uploading them to Civitai.

Avast hates you? Threat level Win64:Malware-Gen
Damn, I used auto py to exe to package it, I'll see how to fix it, sorry.
Well, I already requested the certification, but it doesn't matter much. You can go here to see the .py files: https://civitai.com/articles/13925
@devon_rex18406 dude, Avast is basically malware, I'd not advice to use .
Avast is not a real antivirus... Better not using it.
Hello
In virustotal, your software here is getting flagged for potential malware. This is most likely because you did not digitally sign the application.
https://old.reddit.com/r/dartlang/comments/neapcg/avast_thinks_the_generated_exe_is_infected/gyh6ujt/
See example here. I'm not sure what you wrote it in but best security practices is to make sure your applications are digitally signed.
Hi, I made this in Visual Studio Code and packaged it with auto py to exe. I didn't know I needed more stuff. I'll see how to fix it. Thanks n.n)/

@Herrscher_AGGAĀ That's great then! This is going to be a really useful tool.
@waltfeldĀ Thanks, there is also the version without the Google Collab gallery and if you have Visual Studio Code you only need the assets folder and the .py and that's it, although it is annoying that something like Avast marks me as a virus being a program that is almost impossible to uninstall but that's how it is hehe XD
@Herrscher_AGGAĀ It happens. I only know a little bit of coding, and been my way around the modding community for various games. So this is a pretty common flag that goes up.
@waltfeldĀ Thanks anyway, you got me out of a bind. I'm more used to working in colab so I've never made .exe files :3
@Herrscher_AGGAĀ Eh, it's a learning process like anything else. :)
Any plans to make the source code available?
Hi, sorry for the delay... I've been getting a lot of feedback since I commented on the last civitai article. Well, the code is in the article and on GitHub. https://github.com/HerrscherAGGA/MGC---Metadata-Gallery-Converter-
@Herrscher_AGGAĀ Thanks!
