I always hated Comfy's node based UI, but agents make it tolerable. Now I just have them set up a workflow and I go in and tweak it manually if the results aren't where I want them. I even have agents cherry doing multiple runs and cherry picking the best outputs, models have gotten good enough that it's a real time saver, assuming you have references they can and a rubric to check against.
It's definitely not for me.
From where I'm sitting, it's just turning python functions into boxes and instead of write the function yourself, you drag from the output of one box to the input of another. For 2 or 3 boxes, this is cool, but I opened up a professional workflow and was taken into a view with 100s of boxes and wires all over the place. Uhh, ok?
For myself, I'd rather just create my own python environment, write some quick pytorch or mlx calls, wire up some cli to it and share that in a GitHub.

It's one of the most uniquely hostile user experiences I've ever had the (dis)pleasure of working with
How do you get agents to set up a workflow? You just get them to modify the JSON directly and then import it, or do you have a tighter integration (e.g. in the UI)?
The agents can interact with Comfy via API pretty well, which afaik ends up being directly with JSON.
