|
## Priority
|
|
|
|
**HIGHEST** - Essential for correct MCP tool usage
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
**n8n-mcp tools**: All of them! (40+ tools)
|
|
|
|
**Related skills**:
|
|
- n8n Expression Syntax (write expressions for workflows)
|
|
- n8n Workflow Patterns (use tools to build patterns)
|
|
- n8n Validation Expert (interpret validation results)
|
|
- n8n Node Configuration (configure nodes found with tools)
|
|
|
|
## Coverage
|
|
|
|
### Core Topics
|
|
- Tool selection guide (which tool for which task)
|
|
- nodeType format differences (nodes-base.* vs n8n-nodes-base.*)
|
|
- Validation profiles (minimal/runtime/ai-friendly/strict)
|
|
- Smart parameters (branch, case for multi-output nodes)
|
|
- Auto-sanitization system
|
|
- Workflow management (18 operation types)
|
|
- AI connection types (8 types)
|
|
|
|
### Tool Categories
|
|
- Node Discovery (search_nodes, get_node with detail levels and modes)
|
|
- Configuration Validation (minimal, operation, workflow)
|
|
- Workflow Management (create, update, validate)
|
|
- Template Library (search, get)
|
|
- Documentation (tools, database stats)
|
|
|
|
## Evaluations
|
|
|
|
5 scenarios (100% coverage expected):
|
|
1. **eval-001**: Tool selection (search_nodes)
|
|
2. **eval-002**: nodeType format (nodes-base.* prefix)
|
|
3. **eval-003**: Validation workflow (profiles)
|
|
4. **eval-004**: standard vs full detail (1-2KB vs 3-8KB)
|
|
5. **eval-005**: Smart parameters (branch, case)
|
|
|
|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
✅ **Tool Selection Guide**: Which tool to use for each task
|
|
✅ **Common Patterns**: Most effective tool usage sequences
|
|
✅ **Format Guidance**: nodeType format differences explained
|
|
✅ **Smart Parameters**: Semantic branch/case routing for multi-output nodes
|
|
✅ **Auto-Sanitization**: Explains automatic validation fixes
|
|
✅ **Comprehensive**: Covers all 40+ MCP tools
