n8n Master
Purpose
Use this skill to answer n8n questions and produce practical n8n artifacts: workflow designs, node configurations, Code node JavaScript, HTTP Request setups, external API integrations, and importable workflow JSON.
Do not invent node parameters, API fields, permissions, or response paths. Prefer local references first, then official source files. If the references do not support an answer, say what is missing.
Routing
Start with the narrowest relevant index:
- n8n concepts:
references/wiki/index/ALL-Concepts.md, thenreferences/wiki/concepts/. - n8n nodes:
references/wiki/index/ALL-Nodes.md, thenreferences/wiki/nodes/. - External APIs:
references/wiki/index/ALL-APIs.md, thenreferences/wiki/api-cards/. - Workflow patterns:
references/wiki/index/ALL-Recipes.md, thenreferences/wiki/recipes/. - Useful Q&A:
references/wiki/index/ALL-QAs.md, thenreferences/wiki/qa/. - Source index:
references/wiki/index/ALL-Sources.md. This release is wiki-only and does not bundle raw source corpora. - Document compilation:
references/compiler/ai-document-compiler.mdwhen the user asks to absorb, compile, update, or learn from docs. - Toolbox operations:
references/toolbox/only when the user explicitly asks to test an API, inspect/create Feishu Base fields, or ingest online docs.
If an index is missing or incomplete, use rg over references/wiki/. If the user adds new raw docs later, place them under references/source/ and run the AI compiler workflow.
Answer Modes
Concept or Debugging Question
- Search the relevant index and card.
- Check source files for fragile details.
- Answer with source file paths.
- Separate confirmed facts from inference.
HTTP Request Node
Use references/templates/http-node-output.md.
Include method, URL, auth, headers, query params, body, response paths, and common failure checks. Do not include real secrets. Use credential names or environment variable placeholders.
Code Node
Use references/templates/code-node-output.md.
State the assumed input item structure and execution mode. Return valid n8n items, usually an array of { json: ... } objects for "Run Once for All Items". Avoid unsupported globals unless a local source confirms them.
Workflow JSON
Use references/templates/workflow-json-output.md.
Only output full workflow JSON when the user asks for importable/copy-paste workflow JSON. Keep active: false. Use placeholder credential names. Mention that credentials must be bound in n8n after import.
Production Hardening
Use hardening recipes when the user asks for reliability, auditability, retries, idempotency, human review, safe reruns, or "no silent failure".
Add only the hardening needed for the workflow:
- dedup key and idempotent writes
- run_id and status logging
- retries/backoff for safe operations
- final failure notification
- human review queue for risky failures
- runbook when the workflow is meant to operate long-term
Toolbox
Toolbox scripts are not part of normal answering. Use them only when explicitly helpful:
scripts/toolbox/api_tester.py: lightweight Postman-like API test and n8n HTTP Request draft.scripts/toolbox/feishu_get_bitable_schema.py: read Feishu Base field schema.scripts/toolbox/feishu_create_bitable_fields.py: create Feishu Base fields; default dry-run.scripts/toolbox/firecrawl_ingest_docs.py: ingest online docs intoreferences/source/.
Before running a toolbox script that may touch the network, preserve the local proxy environment. Before write operations, dry-run first unless the user clearly requests execution.
Document Compilation
When the user adds new docs or asks this skill to learn from source files, do not rely on a script to generate final knowledge. Use references/compiler/ai-document-compiler.md.
The AI compiler must read source files, classify them, write compact wiki cards, update references/wiki/index/ALL-*.md, and append to references/wiki/index/Compilation-Log.md. Scripts may only help with mechanical inventory and hashes.
Source And Safety Rules
- Never write real tokens, cookies, app secrets, or API keys into outputs, workflow JSON, references, source files, logs, or examples.
- For Feishu tools, use
FEISHU_APP_IDandFEISHU_APP_SECRETfrom the environment; never print them. - For Firecrawl, use
FIRECRAWL_API_KEYfrom the environment; never print it. - For writes, deletes, batch updates, external messages, or customer/financial data, prefer dry-run and explicit confirmation.
- If source documents disagree, cite the conflict and avoid pretending it is resolved.
- Keep answers copy-paste practical; avoid long tutorials unless the user asks.
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install n8n-master - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/n8n-master - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
