Overview

MCP n8n Server is an MCP server that provides a comprehensive toolset of 41 MCP tools across four core areas: Workflow Management, Execution Monitoring, Credential Management, and Templates. It enables AI-assisted control of n8n via natural language—creating, deploying, and managing workflows with ease. The server emphasizes token efficiency with endpoints like n8n_list_workflows_summary and field filtering to minimize data transfer, while supporting full lifecycle operations (CRUD), activation control, and project transfers. It includes 100 production-ready workflow templates across 13 categories and smart matching to pick the best template for a given use case. Organization and administration features such as tags, centralized variables, multi-tenant projects, users & permissions, and audit logs are included to support governance and collaboration. Designed for Claude Desktop and Cursor, it is configurable through environment variables (N8N_BASE_URL and N8N_API_KEY) and installable via npm with guidance for local development. The README provides installation, configuration, and usage guidance to accelerate adoption and integration into AI-driven automation workflows.
