I plane to usi the stable diffusion web ui along with SDXL and controlnet for SDXL for inpainting. However, not finding the checkpoint for controlnet sdxl inpainting.

How or where can i find and download it?

I have came across the [destitech (Jean-Loup Maillet)](https://huggingface.co/destitech) repo where i find a safetensor file like: [diffusion\_pytorch\_model.fp16.safetensors · destitech/controlnet-inpaint-dreamer-sdxl at main](https://huggingface.co/destitech/controlnet-inpaint-dreamer-sdxl/blob/main/diffusion_pytorch_model.fp16.safetensors)

I am not sure it is the controlnet model checkpoint or not. Using these I did not get any result

I found an example for `destitech/controlnet-inpaint-dreamer-sdxl`.

Incidentally, StablePy’s source code is also useful as a catalog of existing control nets.
