[Optional] get_node({nodeType: \"nodes-base.name\", mode: \"docs\"})\n```\n\n**Example**:\n```javascript\n// Step 1: Search\nsearch_nodes({query: \"slack\"})\n// Returns: nodes-base.slack\n\n// Step 2: Get details\nget_node({nodeType: \"nodes-base.slack\"})\n// Returns: operations, properties, examples (standard detail)\n\n// Step 3: Get readable documentation\nget_node({nodeType: \"nodes-base.slack\", mode: \"docs\"})\n// Returns: markdown documentation\n```\n\n**Common pattern**: search → get_node (18s average)\n\n### Validating Configuration\n\n**Workflow**:\n```\n1. validate_node({nodeType, config: {}, mode: \"minimal\"}) - Check required fields\n2. validate_node({nodeType, config, profile: \"runtime\"}) - Full validation\n3. [Repeat] Fix errors, validate again\n```\n\n**Common pattern**: validate → fix → validate (23s thinking, 58s fixing per cycle)\n\n### Managing Workflows\n\n**Workflow**:\n```\n1. n8n_create_workflow({name, nodes, connections})\n2. n8n_validate_workflow({id})\n3. n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [...]})\n4. n8n_validate_workflow({id}) again\n5. n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [{type: \"activateWorkflow\"}]})\n```\n\n**Common pattern**: iterative updates (56s average between edits)\n\n### Critical: Node JSON Hygiene When Creating Workflows\n\nThree structural mistakes in generated node JSON break the n8n UI even when the workflow validates:\n\n1. **Never emit a `credentials` block with a placeholder ID.** A fake ID like `\"id\": \"REPLACE_ME\"` renders the credential selector permanently disabled and non-clickable in the n8n UI (\"No credentials yet\") — the user has to recreate the node from scratch. If you don't know the real credential ID, **omit the `credentials` block entirely**; an absent block shows a normal empty dropdown the user can click. Use `n8n_manage_credentials({action: \"list\"})` to discover real credential IDs first.\n\n```javascript\n// ❌ Breaks the credential selector\n\"credentials\": {\"httpHeaderAuth\": {\"id\": \"REPLACE_ME\", \"name\": \"My API Key\"}}\n\n// ✅ Unknown ID → omit credentials block; user picks in UI\n// ✅ Known ID (from n8n_manage_credentials list) → use the real ID\n```\n\n2. **Generate UUID v4 values for node `id`** — not human-readable strings like `\"http-list-node\"`. n8n's frontend uses node IDs for form binding and credential component initialization; non-UUID IDs cause subtle UI breakage.\n\n3. **Use the current `typeVersion`** for each node — check `get_node` rather than hardcoding remembered versions (e.g. httpRequest is at 4.4+, not 4.2).\n\n---\n\n## Critical: nodeType Formats\n\n**Two different formats** for different tools!\n\n### Format 1: Search/Validate Tools\n```javascript\n// Use SHORT prefix\n\"nodes-base.slack\"\n\"nodes-base.httpRequest\"\n\"nodes-base.webhook\"\n\"nodes-langchain.agent\"\n```\n\n**Tools that use this**:\n- search_nodes (returns this format)\n- get_node\n- validate_node\n- validate_workflow\n\n### Format 2: Workflow Tools\n```javascript\n// Use FULL prefix\n\"n8n-nodes-base.slack\"\n\"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\"\n\"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"\n\"@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent\"\n```\n\n**Tools that use this**:\n- n8n_create_workflow\n- n8n_update_partial_workflow\n\n### Conversion\n\n```javascript\n// search_nodes returns BOTH formats\n{\n  \"nodeType\": \"nodes-base.slack\",          // For search/validate tools\n  \"workflowNodeType\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\"  // For workflow tools\n}\n```\n\n---\n\n## Common Mistakes\n\nEight recurring mistakes. Two are worth showing in full because they silently corrupt structure:\n\n```javascript\n// nodeType prefix (search/validate tools want the SHORT form)\nget_node({nodeType: \"slack\"})              // ❌ missing prefix → \"Node not found\"\nget_node({nodeType: \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\"}) // ❌ FULL prefix is for workflow tools\nget_node({nodeType: \"nodes-base.slack\"})     // ✅\n\n// credentials must be nested by type with {id, name} — not a flat string\nupdates: {credentials: \"myApiKey\"}                              // ❌\nupdates: {credentials: {httpHeaderAuth: {id: \"abc123\", name: \"My API Key\"}}}  // ✅\n```\n\n| # | Mistake | Fix |\n|---|---------|-----|\n| 1 | Wrong nodeType format | SHORT `nodes-base.*` for search/validate; FULL `n8n-nodes-base.*` for workflow tools (see above) |\n| 2 | `detail: \"full\"` by default | Default `standard` covers 95%; reach for `docs`/`search_properties` instead of `full` |\n| 3 | No validation profile | Pass `profile: \"runtime\"` explicitly (`minimal`/`ai-friendly`/`strict` for other stages) |\n| 4 | Ignoring auto-sanitization | ALL nodes sanitized on ANY update (operator structures, IF/Switch metadata); it can't fix broken connections or branch-count mismatches |\n| 5 | Not using smart parameters | Use `branch: \"true\"` / `case: 0` instead of fragile `sourceIndex` math |\n| 6 | Omitting `intent` | Always include `intent` on `n8n_update_partial_workflow` for better responses |\n| 7 | `parameters` instead of `updates` | `updateNode` takes `updates: {...}`, not `parameters: {...}` |\n| 8 | Wrong credential format | Nest by type with `{id, name}` (see above) |\n\nFull WRONG/CORRECT examples for each: see [VALIDATION_GUIDE.md → Common Mistakes](VALIDATION_GUIDE.md).\n\n---\n\n## Tool Usage Patterns\n\nThree patterns dominate real usage. Worked, step-by-step examples for each live in the reference guides.\n\n- **Pattern 1 — Node Discovery** (18s avg between steps): `search_nodes({query})` → `get_node({nodeType, includeExamples: true})`. See [SEARCH_GUIDE.md](SEARCH_GUIDE.md).\n- **Pattern 2 — Validation Loop** (23s thinking, 58s fixing): `validate_node({profile: \"runtime\"})` → read `errors` → fix config → validate again until clean. See [VALIDATION_GUIDE.md](VALIDATION_GUIDE.md).\n- **Pattern 3 — Workflow Editing** (99.0% success, 56s avg between edits): iterate `n8n_update_partial_workflow` (with `intent`) → `n8n_validate_workflow` → finally `activateWorkflow`. Build iteratively, NOT one-shot. See [WORKFLOW_GUIDE.md](WORKFLOW_GUIDE.md).\n\n---\n\n## Detailed Guides\n\n### Node Discovery Tools\nSee [SEARCH_GUIDE.md](SEARCH_GUIDE.md) for:\n- search_nodes\n- get_node with detail levels (minimal, standard, full)\n- get_node modes (info, docs, search_properties, versions)\n\n### Validation Tools\nSee [VALIDATION_GUIDE.md](VALIDATION_GUIDE.md) for:\n- Validation profiles explained\n- validate_node with modes (minimal, full)\n- validate_workflow complete structure\n- Auto-sanitization system\n- Handling validation errors\n\n### Workflow Management\nSee [WORKFLOW_GUIDE.md](WORKFLOW_GUIDE.md) for:\n- n8n_create_workflow\n- n8n_update_partial_workflow (21 operation types including patchNodeField, setNodeGroups, and moveToFolder!)\n- Smart parameters (branch, case)\n- AI connection types (8 types)\n- Workflow activation (activateWorkflow/deactivateWorkflow)\n- n8n_deploy_template\n- n8n_workflow_versions\n- n8n_manage_folders (folder CRUD + workflow placement)\n- n8n_manage_credentials (credential CRUD + schema discovery)\n- n8n_audit_instance (security auditing)\n\n### Templates, Data Tables & Self-Help\nSee [OPERATIONS_GUIDE.md](OPERATIONS_GUIDE.md) for:\n- search_templates / get_template / n8n_deploy_template examples\n- n8n_manage_datatable (full actions, filter conditions, examples)\n- tools_documentation, ai_agents_guide, n8n_health_check\n\n---\n\n## Template Usage\n\nThe 2,700+ template library has three tools: `search_templates` (modes `query`/`by_nodes`/`by_task`/`by_metadata`), `get_template` (modes `structure`/`full`), and `n8n_deploy_template` (deploys to your instance with `autoFix`/`autoUpgradeVersions`, returns workflow ID + required credentials + fixes applied).\n\nSee [OPERATIONS_GUIDE.md](OPERATIONS_GUIDE.md) for full search/get/deploy examples.\n\n---\n\n## Running Workflows\n\n`n8n_test_workflow` has one required parameter (`workflowId`) and a `method` that picks the path:\n\n| `method` | Backend | What it does |\n|---|---|---|\n| `auto` (default) | Public API | Detects a webhook/form/chat trigger and fires it over HTTP — the workflow must be **active**. No such trigger → it reports that the workflow cannot be triggered and names the methods below. **`auto` never runs anything through n8n's MCP server.** |\n| `trigger` | Public API | Same HTTP path, requested explicitly. |\n| `prepare` | n8n's MCP server | Read-only: lists the nodes that need pinned data. |\n| `pinned` | n8n's MCP server | Runs the workflow with `pinData` standing in for trigger, credentialed and HTTP Request nodes, and waits. Every other node still runs. A run that finishes in `error`/`crashed`/`canceled` comes back as `EXECUTION_FAILED` with the `executionId`. |\n| `direct` | n8n's MCP server | Starts a run and returns once it has started; nothing is pinned, so every node runs. `message` or `data`/`headers` are forwarded to the trigger as input. |\n\n- The last three need `N8N_MCP_ACCESS_TOKEN` (n8n 2.34+) a","tagline":"Expert guide for using n8n-mcp MCP tools effectively.
