n8n-workflow-api-authoring

Skill1 starsChanged 9 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub

This skill should be used when authoring an n8n workflow as JSON to import via n8n's REST API (rather than hand-clicking in the editor), when an n8n HTTP Request node's attached credential seems to be silently ignored, when an n8n Code node throws "Module 'X' is disallowed", when a `{{ }}` expression field throws a bare "invalid syntax", when downstream Code node fields go missing/undefined after an HTTP Request node, when importing/updating an n8n workflow via `POST`/`PUT /api/v1/workflows` hits errors like "active is read-only", "PATCH method not allowed", or a referenced error-workflow name not resolving, when a Wait-node-delayed check using `$getWorkflowStaticData` gives a stale/wrong answer, or when decoding n8n's SQLite `execution_data` for debugging without an API key. Trigger phrases include "n8n workflow JSON", "n8n REST API import", "n8n credential not working", "n8n expression invalid syntax", "n8n Module crypto is disallowed", "n8n HTTP Request neverError", "n8n workflow active read-only", "POST /api/v1/workflows", "getWorkflowStaticData stale", "n8n Wait node static data", "n8n execution_data flatted decode".

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

10 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 6 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈4

    Distinctive · estimate

    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 an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “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.

What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

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.
