n8n-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that turns the n8n workflow platform into a set of first-class, typed tools an AI assistant can understand and operate. It exposes structured knowledge of n8n nodes and operations so an agent can reason about workflows, parameters, and executions without scraping docs or guessing API shapes. The server focuses on making Claude Desktop (and other MCP-capable clients) “n8n-literate,” enabling tasks such as inspecting existing workflows, proposing node chains, and validating configuration before runs. It ships with organized resources and tool definitions that map cleanly to n8n’s ecosystem, improving reliability compared with ad-hoc prompt patterns. The project targets practical agent ops: safer mutations, better error reporting, and predictable behavior when automating or refactoring automations. Community posts highlight the goal of giving agents accurate knowledge of hundreds of n8n nodes and keeping that knowledge fresh as n8n evolves.

Features

  • MCP tools that model n8n nodes, parameters, and workflows
  • Read/inspect and propose/modify flows with validation
  • Resource definitions for discoverability inside MCP clients
  • Safer agent operations versus prompt-only approaches
  • Up-to-date coverage of the expanding n8n node catalog
  • Designed for Claude Desktop and other MCP-aware editors
