n8n

n8n extends your AI assistant with the ability to manage n8n workflows and automations via API. Use when working with n8n workflows, executions, or automation tasks - listing workflows, activating/deactivating, checking execution status, manually triggering workflows, or debugging automation issues. Rather than leaving your conversation to handle this manually, you can ask your Claude agent directly — and it will take care of the task end-to-end, using n8n as its underlying capability.

n8n works across Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install n8n once and it becomes available across all your AI clients. Whether you're working in Claude for focused sessions or Cursor for integrated workflows, the skill behaves consistently.

To install n8n, copy the skill folder to `~/.claude/skills/n8n/` for use across all your projects, or `.claude/skills/n8n/` for a single project. Restart Claude and the skill is immediately active — invoke it with `/n8n` or just describe your goal and the AI will pick it up automatically.

With 16,793 installs, n8n has built a substantial following in the Developer & DevOps space. That install count reflects consistent demand from developers and teams who've found it genuinely useful. The source code is open on GitHub — you can inspect it, contribute fixes, or fork it to adapt the skill for your specific setup. Like all skills on DiscoverAISkills, it is free to install and use. The broader AI skills ecosystem continues to expand as developers contribute new capabilities across categories like developer tools, data analysis, writing, automation, and more.
