n8n-skills

n8n-skills is a set of seven complementary Claude Code skills that teach an assistant how to build production-ready n8n workflows with the n8n-mcp MCP server. The README names the problems they address: using MCP tools incorrectly or inefficiently, getting stuck in validation error loops, not knowing which workflow pattern to use, and misconfiguring nodes and their dependencies.

The seven skills are n8n Expression Syntax (core variables such as $json and $node, with the gotcha that webhook data sits under $json.body), n8n MCP Tools Expert (marked highest priority: which tool to use for which task, and the difference between nodes-base.* and n8n-nodes-base.* node types), n8n Workflow Patterns, n8n Validation Expert, n8n Node Configuration, n8n Code JavaScript and n8n Code Python. Each activates when the conversation matches its topic. The prerequisite is that the n8n-mcp server is already installed and configured. The repository is MIT licensed and has an introduction video.
