n8n-code-javascript
Skill106 starsChanged 36 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Write, review, or debug JavaScript in an n8n Code node. Use when a Code node is already in the workflow (editing it, fixing an error, choosing its mode, making it faster), or when a new one is justified: no native node fits (check the job-to-node table in using-n8n-mcp-skills first) and the job is on the closed list — loops or recursion no node expresses, state across runs, parsing no node handles, an allowlisted library, heavy all-items work, or one short node replacing 4+ glue nodes. Covers $input/$json/$node in code, this.helpers, Luxon, SplitInBatches loops, cross-iteration data, pairedItem, per-item performance, and the \"Why Code:\" note. Filtering, totals, dedupe, sorting, joins, file formats and API paging have native nodes (Filter, Summarize, Remove Duplicates, Sort, Merge, Extract From File, HTTP Request): see n8n-node-configuration. EXCEPTION — for the AI-agent-callable Custom Code Tool (@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.toolCode), use n8n-code-tool; it has a different runtime contract.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
11 rules. 3 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 6 are very specific to this project.
3
Common
Most of the 21 edited versions we read keep these.
2
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
6
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 21 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
