feat: implement anonymous telemetry system with Supabase integration

Adds zero-configuration anonymous usage statistics to track:
- Number of active users with deterministic user IDs
- Which MCP tools AI agents use most
- What workflows are built (sanitized to protect privacy)
- Common errors and issues

Key features:
- Zero-configuration design with hardcoded write-only credentials
- Privacy-first approach with comprehensive data sanitization
- Opt-out support via config file and environment variables
- Docker-friendly with environment variable support
- Multi-process safe with immediate flush strategy
- Row Level Security (RLS) policies for write-only access

Technical implementation:
- Supabase backend with anon key for INSERT-only operations
- Workflow sanitization removes all sensitive data
- Environment variables checked for opt-out (TELEMETRY_DISABLED, etc.)
- Telemetry enabled by default but respects user preferences
- Cleaned up all debug logging for production readiness

# Privacy Policy for n8n-mcp Telemetry
## Overview
n8n-mcp collects anonymous usage statistics to help improve the tool. This data collection is designed to respect user privacy while providing valuable insights into how the tool is used.
## What We Collect
- **Anonymous User ID**: A hashed identifier derived from your machine characteristics (no personal information)
- **Tool Usage**: Which MCP tools are used and their performance metrics
- **Workflow Patterns**: Sanitized workflow structures (all sensitive data removed)
- **Error Types**: Categories of errors encountered (no error messages with user data)
- **System Information**: Platform, architecture, Node.js version, and n8n-mcp version
## What We DON'T Collect
- Personal information or usernames
- API keys, tokens, or credentials
- URLs, endpoints, or hostnames
- Email addresses or contact information
- File paths or directory structures
- Actual workflow data or parameters
- Database connection strings
- Any authentication information
## Data Sanitization
All collected data undergoes automatic sanitization:
- URLs are replaced with `[URL]` or `[REDACTED]`
- Long alphanumeric strings (potential keys) are replaced with `[KEY]`
- Email addresses are replaced with `[EMAIL]`
- Authentication-related fields are completely removed
## Data Storage
- Data is stored securely using Supabase
- Anonymous users have write-only access (cannot read data back)
- Row Level Security (RLS) policies prevent data access by anonymous users
## Opt-Out
You can disable telemetry at any time:
```bash
npx n8n-mcp telemetry disable
```
To re-enable:
```bash
npx n8n-mcp telemetry enable
```
To check status:
```bash
npx n8n-mcp telemetry status
```
## Data Usage
Collected data is used solely to:
- Understand which features are most used
- Identify common error patterns
- Improve tool performance and reliability
- Guide development priorities
## Data Retention
- Data is retained for analysis purposes
- No personal identification is possible from the collected data
## Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Updates will be reflected in this document.
## Contact
For questions about telemetry or privacy, please open an issue on GitHub:

**Restart Claude Desktop after updating configuration** - That's it! 🎉
## 🔐 Privacy & Telemetry
n8n-mcp collects anonymous usage statistics to improve the tool. [View our privacy policy](./PRIVACY.md).
### Opting Out
**For npx users:**
```bash
npx n8n-mcp telemetry disable
```
**For Docker users:**
Add the following environment variable to your Docker configuration:
```json
"-e", "N8N_MCP_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=true"
```
Example in Claude Desktop config:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"n8n-mcp": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"--init",
"-e", "MCP_MODE=stdio",
"-e", "LOG_LEVEL=error",
"-e", "N8N_MCP_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=true",
"ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
**For docker-compose users:**
Set in your environment file or docker-compose.yml:
```yaml
environment:
N8N_MCP_TELEMETRY_DISABLED: "true"
```
