## Tool Selection Guide
|
||||
|
||||
### Finding the Right Node
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. search_nodes({query: "keyword"})
|
||||
2. get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.name"})
|
||||
3. [Optional] get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.name", mode: "docs"})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example**:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Step 1: Search
|
||||
search_nodes({query: "slack"})
|
||||
// Returns: nodes-base.slack
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Get details
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack"})
|
||||
// Returns: operations, properties, examples (standard detail)
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 3: Get readable documentation
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", mode: "docs"})
|
||||
// Returns: markdown documentation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Common pattern**: search → get_node (18s average)
|
||||
|
||||
### Validating Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. validate_node({nodeType, config: {}, mode: "minimal"}) - Check required fields
|
||||
2. validate_node({nodeType, config, profile: "runtime"}) - Full validation
|
||||
3. [Repeat] Fix errors, validate again
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Common pattern**: validate → fix → validate (23s thinking, 58s fixing per cycle)
|
||||
|
||||
### Managing Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. n8n_create_workflow({name, nodes, connections})
|
||||
2. n8n_validate_workflow({id})
|
||||
3. n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [...]})
|
||||
4. n8n_validate_workflow({id}) again
|
||||
5. n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [{type: "activateWorkflow"}]})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Common pattern**: iterative updates (56s average between edits)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical: nodeType Formats
|
||||
|
||||
**Two different formats** for different tools!
|
||||
|
||||
### Format 1: Search/Validate Tools
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Use SHORT prefix
|
||||
"nodes-base.slack"
|
||||
"nodes-base.httpRequest"
|
||||
"nodes-base.webhook"
|
||||
"nodes-langchain.agent"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Tools that use this**:
|
||||
- search_nodes (returns this format)
|
||||
- get_node
|
||||
- validate_node
|
||||
- validate_workflow
|
||||
|
||||
### Format 2: Workflow Tools
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Use FULL prefix
|
||||
"n8n-nodes-base.slack"
|
||||
"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest"
|
||||
"n8n-nodes-base.webhook"
|
||||
"@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Tools that use this**:
|
||||
- n8n_create_workflow
|
||||
- n8n_update_partial_workflow
|
||||
|
||||
### Conversion
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// search_nodes returns BOTH formats
|
||||
{
|
||||
"nodeType": "nodes-base.slack", // For search/validate tools
|
||||
"workflowNodeType": "n8n-nodes-base.slack" // For workflow tools
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 1: Wrong nodeType Format
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: "Node not found" error
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// WRONG
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "slack"}) // Missing prefix
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "n8n-nodes-base.slack"}) // Wrong prefix
|
||||
|
||||
// CORRECT
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack"})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 2: Using detail="full" by Default
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: Huge payload, slower response, token waste
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// WRONG - Returns 3-8K tokens, use sparingly
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", detail: "full"})
|
||||
|
||||
// CORRECT - Returns 1-2K tokens, covers 95% of use cases
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack"}) // detail="standard" is default
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", detail: "standard"})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**When to use detail="full"**:
|
||||
- Debugging complex configuration issues
|
||||
- Need complete property schema with all nested options
|
||||
- Exploring advanced features
|
||||
|
||||
**Better alternatives**:
|
||||
1. `get_node({detail: "standard"})` - for operations list (default)
|
||||
2. `get_node({mode: "docs"})` - for readable documentation
|
||||
3. `get_node({mode: "search_properties", propertyQuery: "auth"})` - for specific property
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 3: Not Using Validation Profiles
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: Too many false positives OR missing real errors
|
||||
|
||||
**Profiles**:
|
||||
- `minimal` - Only required fields (fast, permissive)
|
||||
- `runtime` - Values + types (recommended for pre-deployment)
|
||||
- `ai-friendly` - Reduce false positives (for AI configuration)
|
||||
- `strict` - Maximum validation (for production)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// WRONG - Uses default profile
|
||||
validate_node({nodeType, config})
|
||||
|
||||
// CORRECT - Explicit profile
|
||||
validate_node({nodeType, config, profile: "runtime"})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 4: Ignoring Auto-Sanitization
|
||||
|
||||
**What happens**: ALL nodes sanitized on ANY workflow update
|
||||
|
||||
**Auto-fixes**:
|
||||
- Binary operators (equals, contains) → removes singleValue
|
||||
- Unary operators (isEmpty, isNotEmpty) → adds singleValue: true
|
||||
- IF/Switch nodes → adds missing metadata
|
||||
|
||||
**Cannot fix**:
|
||||
- Broken connections
|
||||
- Branch count mismatches
|
||||
- Paradoxical corrupt states
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// After ANY update, auto-sanitization runs on ALL nodes
|
||||
n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [...]})
|
||||
// → Automatically fixes operator structures
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 5: Not Using Smart Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: Complex sourceIndex calculations for multi-output nodes
|
||||
|
||||
**Old way** (manual):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// IF node connection
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: "addConnection",
|
||||
source: "IF",
|
||||
target: "Handler",
|
||||
sourceIndex: 0 // Which output? Hard to remember!
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**New way** (smart parameters):
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// IF node - semantic branch names
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: "addConnection",
|
||||
source: "IF",
|
||||
target: "True Handler",
|
||||
branch: "true" // Clear and readable!
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: "addConnection",
|
||||
source: "IF",
|
||||
target: "False Handler",
|
||||
branch: "false"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Switch node - semantic case numbers
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: "addConnection",
|
||||
source: "Switch",
|
||||
target: "Handler A",
|
||||
case: 0
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mistake 6: Not Using intent Parameter
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: Less helpful tool responses
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// WRONG - No context for response
|
||||
n8n_update_partial_workflow({
|
||||
id: "abc",
|
||||
operations: [{type: "addNode", node: {...}}]
|
||||
})
|
||||
|
||||
// CORRECT - Better AI responses
|
||||
n8n_update_partial_workflow({
|
||||
id: "abc",
|
||||
intent: "Add error handling for API failures",
|
||||
operations: [{type: "addNode", node: {...}}]
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Tool Usage Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 1: Node Discovery (Most Common)
|
||||
|
||||
**Common workflow**: 18s average between steps
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Step 1: Search (fast!)
|
||||
const results = await search_nodes({
|
||||
query: "slack",
|
||||
mode: "OR", // Default: any word matches
|
||||
limit: 20
|
||||
});
|
||||
// → Returns: nodes-base.slack, nodes-base.slackTrigger
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Get details (~18s later, user reviewing results)
|
||||
const details = await get_node({
|
||||
nodeType: "nodes-base.slack",
|
||||
includeExamples: true // Get real template configs
|
||||
});
|
||||
// → Returns: operations, properties, metadata
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 2: Validation Loop
|
||||
|
||||
**Typical cycle**: 23s thinking, 58s fixing
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Step 1: Validate
|
||||
const result = await validate_node({
|
||||
nodeType: "nodes-base.slack",
|
||||
config: {
|
||||
resource: "channel",
|
||||
operation: "create"
|
||||
},
|
||||
profile: "runtime"
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Check errors (~23s thinking)
|
||||
if (!result.valid) {
|
||||
console.log(result.errors); // "Missing required field: name"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 3: Fix config (~58s fixing)
|
||||
config.name = "general";
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 4: Validate again
|
||||
await validate_node({...}); // Repeat until clean
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 3: Workflow Editing
|
||||
|
||||
**Most used update tool**: 99.0% success rate, 56s average between edits
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Iterative workflow building (NOT one-shot!)
|
||||
// Edit 1
|
||||
await n8n_update_partial_workflow({
|
||||
id: "workflow-id",
|
||||
intent: "Add webhook trigger",
|
||||
operations: [{type: "addNode", node: {...}}]
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// ~56s later...
|
||||
|
||||
// Edit 2
|
||||
await n8n_update_partial_workflow({
|
||||
id: "workflow-id",
|
||||
intent: "Connect webhook to processor",
|
||||
operations: [{type: "addConnection", source: "...", target: "..."}]
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// ~56s later...
|
||||
|
||||
// Edit 3 (validation)
|
||||
await n8n_validate_workflow({id: "workflow-id"});
|
||||
|
||||
// Ready? Activate!
|
||||
await n8n_update_partial_workflow({
|
||||
id: "workflow-id",
|
||||
intent: "Activate workflow for production",
|
||||
operations: [{type: "activateWorkflow"}]
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

### Search Templates
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Search by keyword (default mode)
|
||||
search_templates({
|
||||
query: "webhook slack",
|
||||
limit: 20
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Search by node types
|
||||
search_templates({
|
||||
searchMode: "by_nodes",
|
||||
nodeTypes: ["n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest", "n8n-nodes-base.slack"]
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Search by task type
|
||||
search_templates({
|
||||
searchMode: "by_task",
|
||||
task: "webhook_processing"
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Search by metadata (complexity, setup time)
|
||||
search_templates({
|
||||
searchMode: "by_metadata",
|
||||
complexity: "simple",
|
||||
maxSetupMinutes: 15
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Get Template Details
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
get_template({
|
||||
templateId: 2947,
|
||||
mode: "structure" // nodes+connections only
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
get_template({
|
||||
templateId: 2947,
|
||||
mode: "full" // complete workflow JSON
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Deploy Template Directly

|
||||
// Deploy template to your n8n instance
|
||||
n8n_deploy_template({
|
||||
templateId: 2947,
|
||||
name: "My Weather to Slack", // Custom name (optional)
|
||||
autoFix: true, // Auto-fix common issues (default)
|
||||
autoUpgradeVersions: true // Upgrade node versions (default)
|
||||
});
|
||||
// Returns: workflow ID, required credentials, fixes applied
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

## Unified Tool Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### get_node (Unified Node Information)
|
||||
|
||||
**Detail Levels** (mode="info", default):
|
||||
- `minimal` (~200 tokens) - Basic metadata only
|
||||
- `standard` (~1-2K tokens) - Essential properties + operations (RECOMMENDED)
|
||||
- `full` (~3-8K tokens) - Complete schema (use sparingly)
|
||||
|
||||
**Operation Modes**:
|
||||
- `info` (default) - Node schema with detail level
|
||||
- `docs` - Readable markdown documentation
|
||||
- `search_properties` - Find specific properties (use with propertyQuery)
|
||||
- `versions` - List all versions with breaking changes
|
||||
- `compare` - Compare two versions
|
||||
- `breaking` - Show only breaking changes
|
||||
- `migrations` - Show auto-migratable changes
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Standard (recommended)
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest"})
|
||||
|
||||
// Get documentation
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.webhook", mode: "docs"})
|
||||
|
||||
// Search for properties
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest", mode: "search_properties", propertyQuery: "auth"})
|
||||
|
||||
// Check versions
|
||||
get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.executeWorkflow", mode: "versions"})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### validate_node (Unified Validation)
|
||||
|
||||
**Modes**:
|
||||
- `full` (default) - Comprehensive validation with errors/warnings/suggestions
|
||||
- `minimal` - Quick required fields check only
|
||||
|
||||
**Profiles** (for mode="full"):
|
||||
- `minimal` - Very lenient
|
||||
- `runtime` - Standard (default, recommended)
|
||||
- `ai-friendly` - Balanced for AI workflows
|
||||
- `strict` - Most thorough (production)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Full validation with runtime profile
|
||||
validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {...}, profile: "runtime"})
|
||||
|
||||
// Quick required fields check
|
||||
validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.webhook", config: {}, mode: "minimal"})
|
||||
```

|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Do
|
||||
- Use `get_node({detail: "standard"})` for most use cases
|
||||
- Specify validation profile explicitly (`profile: "runtime"`)
|
||||
- Use smart parameters (`branch`, `case`) for clarity
|
||||
- Include `intent` parameter in workflow updates
|
||||
- Follow search → get_node → validate workflow
|
||||
- Iterate workflows (avg 56s between edits)
|
||||
- Validate after every significant change
|
||||
- Use `includeExamples: true` for real configs
|
||||
- Use `n8n_deploy_template` for quick starts
|
||||
|
||||
### Don't
|
||||
- Use `detail: "full"` unless necessary (wastes tokens)
|
||||
- Forget nodeType prefix (`nodes-base.*`)
|
||||
- Skip validation profiles
|
||||
- Try to build workflows in one shot (iterate!)
|
||||
- Ignore auto-sanitization behavior
|
||||
- Use full prefix (`n8n-nodes-base.*`) with search/validate tools
|
||||
- Forget to activate workflows after building
|

## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Most Important**:
|
||||
1. Use **get_node** with `detail: "standard"` (default) - covers 95% of use cases
|
||||
2. nodeType formats differ: `nodes-base.*` (search/validate) vs `n8n-nodes-base.*` (workflows)
|
||||
3. Specify **validation profiles** (`runtime` recommended)
|
||||
4. Use **smart parameters** (`branch="true"`, `case=0`)
|
||||
5. Include **intent parameter** in workflow updates
|
||||
6. **Auto-sanitization** runs on ALL nodes during updates
|
||||
7. Workflows can be **activated via API** (`activateWorkflow` operation)
|
||||
8. Workflows are built **iteratively** (56s avg between edits)
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Workflow**:
|
||||
1. search_nodes → find node
|
||||
2. get_node → understand config
|
||||
3. validate_node → check config
|
||||
4. n8n_create_workflow → build
|
||||
5. n8n_validate_workflow → verify
|
||||
6. n8n_update_partial_workflow → iterate
|
||||
7. activateWorkflow → go live!
