- ALWAYS validate before building
- ALWAYS validate after building
- NEVER deploy unvalidated workflows
- ALWAYS check for existing templates before building from scratch
- LEVERAGE metadata filters to find skill-appropriate templates
- VALIDATE templates before deployment (they may need updates)
- USE diff operations for updates (80-90% token savings)

- FIX all errors before proceeding
## Template Discovery Tips
- **97.5% of templates have metadata** - Use smart filtering!
- **Filter combinations work best** - Combine complexity + setup time + service
- **Templates save 70-90% development time** - Always check first
- **Metadata is AI-generated** - Occasionally imprecise but highly useful
- **Use `includeMetadata: false` for fast browsing** - Add metadata only when needed

# Template Metadata Generation
This document describes the template metadata generation system introduced in n8n-MCP v2.10.0, which uses OpenAI's batch API to automatically analyze and categorize workflow templates.
## Overview
The template metadata system analyzes n8n workflow templates to extract structured information about their purpose, complexity, requirements, and target audience. This enables intelligent template discovery through advanced filtering capabilities.
## Architecture
### Components
1. **MetadataGenerator** (`src/templates/metadata-generator.ts`)
- Interfaces with OpenAI API
- Generates structured metadata using JSON schemas
- Provides fallback defaults for error cases
2. **BatchProcessor** (`src/templates/batch-processor.ts`)
- Manages OpenAI batch API operations
- Handles parallel batch submission
- Monitors batch status and retrieves results
3. **Template Repository** (`src/templates/template-repository.ts`)
- Stores metadata in SQLite database
- Provides advanced search capabilities
- Supports JSON extraction queries
## Metadata Schema
Each template's metadata contains:
```typescript
{
categories: string[] // Max 5 categories (e.g., "automation", "integration")
complexity: "simple" | "medium" | "complex"
use_cases: string[] // Max 5 primary use cases
estimated_setup_minutes: number // 5-480 minutes
required_services: string[] // External services needed
key_features: string[] // Max 5 main capabilities
target_audience: string[] // Max 3 target user types
}
```
## Generation Process
### 1. Initial Setup
```bash
# Set OpenAI API key in .env
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
```
### 2. Generate Metadata for Existing Templates
```bash
# Generate metadata only (no template fetching)
npm run fetch:templates -- --metadata-only
# Generate metadata during update
npm run fetch:templates -- --mode=update --generate-metadata
```
### 3. Batch Processing
The system uses OpenAI's batch API for cost-effective processing:
- **50% cost reduction** compared to synchronous API calls
- **24-hour processing window** for batch completion
- **Parallel batch submission** for faster processing
- **Automatic retry** for failed items
### Configuration Options
Environment variables:
- `OPENAI_API_KEY`: Required for metadata generation
- `OPENAI_MODEL`: Model to use (default: "gpt-4o-mini")
- `OPENAI_BATCH_SIZE`: Templates per batch (default: 100, max: 500)
- `METADATA_LIMIT`: Limit templates to process (for testing)
## How It Works
### 1. Template Analysis
For each template, the generator analyzes:
- Template name and description
- Node types and their frequency
- Workflow structure and connections
- Overall complexity
### 2. Node Summarization
Nodes are grouped into categories:
- HTTP/Webhooks
- Database operations
- Communication (Slack, Email)
- AI/ML operations
- Spreadsheets
- Service-specific nodes
### 3. Metadata Generation
The AI model receives:
```
Template: [name]
Description: [description]
Nodes Used (X): [summarized node list]
Workflow has X nodes with Y connections
```
And generates structured metadata following the JSON schema.
### 4. Storage and Indexing
Metadata is stored as JSON in SQLite and indexed for fast querying:
```sql
-- Example query for simple automation templates
SELECT * FROM templates
WHERE json_extract(metadata, '$.complexity') = 'simple'
AND json_extract(metadata, '$.categories') LIKE '%automation%'
```
## MCP Tool Integration
### search_templates_by_metadata
Advanced filtering tool with multiple parameters:
```typescript
search_templates_by_metadata({
category: "automation", // Filter by category
complexity: "simple", // Skill level
maxSetupMinutes: 30, // Time constraint
targetAudience: "marketers", // Role-based
requiredService: "slack" // Service dependency
})
```
### list_templates
Enhanced to include metadata:
```typescript
list_templates({
includeMetadata: true, // Include full metadata
limit: 20,
offset: 0
})
```
## Usage Examples
### Finding Beginner-Friendly Templates
```typescript
const templates = await search_templates_by_metadata({
complexity: "simple",
maxSetupMinutes: 15
});
```
### Role-Specific Templates
```typescript
const marketingTemplates = await search_templates_by_metadata({
targetAudience: "marketers",
category: "communication"
});
```
### Service Integration Templates
```typescript
const openaiTemplates = await search_templates_by_metadata({
requiredService: "openai",
complexity: "medium"
});
```
## Performance Metrics
- **Coverage**: 97.5% of templates have metadata (2,534/2,598)
- **Generation Time**: ~2-4 hours for full database (using batch API)
- **Query Performance**: <100ms for metadata searches
- **Storage Overhead**: ~2MB additional database size
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **Batch Processing Stuck**
- Check batch status: The API provides status updates
- Batches auto-expire after 24 hours
- Monitor using the batch ID in logs
2. **Missing Metadata**
- ~2.5% of templates may fail metadata generation
- Fallback defaults are provided
- Can regenerate with `--metadata-only` flag
3. **API Rate Limits**
- Batch API has generous limits (50,000 requests/batch)
- Cost is 50% of synchronous API
- Processing happens within 24-hour window
### Monitoring Batch Status
```bash
# Check current batch status (if logged)
curl https://api.openai.com/v1/batches/[batch-id] \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY"
```
## Cost Analysis
### Batch API Pricing (gpt-4o-mini)
- Input: $0.075 per 1M tokens (50% of standard)
- Output: $0.30 per 1M tokens (50% of standard)
- Average template: ~300 input tokens, ~200 output tokens
- Total cost for 2,500 templates: ~$0.50
### Comparison with Synchronous API
- Synchronous cost: ~$1.00 for same volume
- Time saved: Parallel processing vs sequential
- Reliability: Automatic retries included
## Future Enhancements
### Planned Improvements
1. **Incremental Updates**
- Only generate metadata for new templates
- Track metadata version for updates
2. **Enhanced Analysis**
- Workflow complexity scoring
- Dependency graph analysis
- Performance impact estimates
3. **User Feedback Loop**
- Collect accuracy feedback
- Refine categorization over time
- Community-driven corrections
4. **Alternative Models**
- Support for local LLMs
- Claude API integration
- Configurable model selection
## Implementation Details
### Database Schema
```sql
-- Metadata stored as JSON column
ALTER TABLE templates ADD COLUMN metadata TEXT;
-- Indexes for common queries
CREATE INDEX idx_templates_complexity ON templates(
json_extract(metadata, '$.complexity')
);
CREATE INDEX idx_templates_setup_time ON templates(
json_extract(metadata, '$.estimated_setup_minutes')
);
```
### Error Handling
The system provides robust error handling:
1. **API Failures**: Fallback to default metadata
2. **Parsing Errors**: Logged with template ID
3. **Batch Failures**: Individual item retry
4. **Validation Errors**: Zod schema enforcement
## Maintenance
### Regenerating Metadata
```bash
# Full regeneration (caution: costs ~$0.50)
npm run fetch:templates -- --mode=rebuild --generate-metadata
# Partial regeneration (templates without metadata)
npm run fetch:templates -- --metadata-only
```
### Database Backup
```bash
# Backup before regeneration
cp data/nodes.db data/nodes.db.backup
# Restore if needed
cp data/nodes.db.backup data/nodes.db
```
## Security Considerations
1. **API Key Management**
- Store in `.env` file (gitignored)
- Never commit API keys
- Use environment variables in CI/CD
2. **Data Privacy**
- Only template structure is sent to API
- No user data or credentials included
- Processing happens in OpenAI's secure environment
## Conclusion
The template metadata system transforms template discovery from simple text search to intelligent, multi-dimensional filtering. By leveraging OpenAI's batch API, we achieve cost-effective, scalable metadata generation that significantly improves the user experience for finding relevant workflow templates.
