Get claude to write your n8n automations
This repository helps claude code create n8n workflows. it is free and open source. here is the description from the project. Let us know i you try it and how you are getting AI to help write your n8n automations https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-skills/ This repository contains 5 complementary Claude Code skills that teach AI assistants how to build production-ready n8n workflows using the n8n-mcp MCP server. Why These Skills Exist Building n8n workflows programmatically can be challenging. Common issues include: - Using MCP tools incorrectly or inefficiently - Getting stuck in validation error loops - Not knowing which workflow patterns to use - Misconfiguring nodes and their dependencies These skills solve these problems by teaching Claude: - ✅ Correct n8n expression syntax ({{}} patterns) - ✅ How to use n8n-mcp tools effectively - ✅ Proven workflow patterns from real-world usage - ✅ Validation error interpretation and fixing - ✅ Operation-aware node configuration 📚 The 7 Skills 1. n8n Expression Syntax Teaches correct n8n expression syntax and common patterns. Activates when: Writing expressions, using {{}} syntax, accessing $json/$node variables, troubleshooting expression errors. Key Features: - Core variables ($json, $node, $now, $env) - Critical gotcha: Webhook data is under $json.body - Common mistakes catalog with fixes - When NOT to use expressions (Code nodes!) 2. n8n MCP Tools Expert (HIGHEST PRIORITY) Expert guide for using n8n-mcp MCP tools effectively. Activates when: Searching for nodes, validating configurations, accessing templates, managing workflows. Key Features: - Tool selection guide (which tool for which task) - nodeType format differences (nodes-base.* vs n8n-nodes-base.*) - Validation profiles (minimal/runtime/ai-friendly/strict) - Smart parameters (branch="true" for IF nodes) - Auto-sanitization system explained
