How to view AUTOMATIC1111 prompt metadata

When you generate an image with AUTOMATIC1111's Stable Diffusion Web UI, the tool embeds the full generation parameters, including the positive prompt, negative prompt, sampler, seed, CFG scale, model hash, and more, directly into the image metadata. PNG files usually store that data in text chunks, while compatible JPEG and WebP images may carry it in EXIF metadata. This data is invisible in normal image viewers but contains everything needed to reproduce or study the image.

The AI Image Prompt Viewer reads that embedded metadata and displays it in a structured, readable format. It is useful for recovering prompts from your own images, studying techniques used in images shared by others, or archiving generation settings for future reference.

The viewer parses the image's embedded metadata and displays the positive prompt, negative prompt, and all generation parameters.

AUTOMATIC1111 prompt metadata FAQ

Which AI tools embed prompt metadata?

AUTOMATIC1111's Stable Diffusion Web UI is the primary tool that this viewer targets. It most commonly stores full generation parameters in PNG metadata, and some workflows preserve them in JPEG or WebP EXIF metadata. Other tools like ComfyUI and InvokeAI use different metadata formats that this viewer does not currently support.

Why does the viewer show nothing for my image?

The image may not have been generated with AUTOMATIC1111, or the metadata may have been stripped. Uploading to social media, resizing, or re-saving often removes the embedded data from PNG, JPEG, and WebP images alike.

Does this work with JPEG or WebP images?

Yes, when those files still contain compatible metadata. AUTOMATIC1111 primarily embeds metadata in PNG files using text chunks. JPEG and WebP files generated by the same tool may contain metadata in EXIF UserComment fields, but support varies. PNG is still the most reliable format for metadata extraction.

Can I use the extracted prompt to recreate the image?

Yes. If you have the same model, the extracted prompt, negative prompt, seed, sampler, and CFG scale are usually enough to reproduce a very similar, and often identical, result.
