Added comprehensive TypeScript type definitions for n8n node parsing while
maintaining zero compilation errors. Uses pragmatic "70% benefit with 0%
breakage" approach with strategic `any` assertions.
## Type Definitions (src/types/node-types.ts)
- NodeClass union type replaces `any` in method signatures
- Type guards: isVersionedNodeInstance(), isVersionedNodeClass()
- Utility functions for safe node handling
## Parser Updates
- node-parser.ts: All methods use NodeClass (15+ methods)
- simple-parser.ts: Strongly typed method signatures
- property-extractor.ts: Typed extraction methods
- 30+ method signatures improved
## Strategic Pattern
- Strong types in public method signatures (caller type safety)
- Strategic `as any` assertions for internal union type access
- Pattern: const desc = description as any; // Access union properties
## Benefits
- Better IDE support and auto-complete
- Compile-time safety at call sites
- Type-based documentation
- Zero compilation errors
- Bug prevention (would have caught v2.17.4 baseDescription issue)
## Test Updates
- All test files updated with `as any` for mock objects
- Zero compilation errors maintained
## Known Limitations
- ~70% type coverage (signatures typed, internal logic uses assertions)
- Union types (INodeTypeBaseDescription vs INodeTypeDescription) not fully resolved
- Future work: Conditional types or overloads for 100% type safety

Address code review feedback from PR #285:
1. Fix Failing Test (CRITICAL)
- Updated test from baseDescription.defaultVersion to description.defaultVersion
- Added test to verify baseDescription is correctly ignored (legacy bug)
2. Add Missing Test Coverage (HIGH PRIORITY)
- Test currentVersion priority over description.defaultVersion
- Test currentVersion = 0 edge case (version 0 should be valid)
- All 34 tests now passing
3. Enhanced Documentation
- Added comprehensive JSDoc for extractVersion() explaining priority chain
- Enhanced validation comments explaining why typeVersion must run before langchain skip
- Clarified that parameter validation (not typeVersion) is skipped for langchain nodes
Test Results:
- ✅ 34/34 tests passing
- ✅ Version extraction priority chain validated
- ✅ Edge cases covered (version 0, missing properties)
- ✅ Legacy bug prevention tested

- Add null checks with non-null assertions in docs-mapper.test.ts
- Add undefined checks with non-null assertions in node-parser-outputs.test.ts
- Use type assertions (as any) for workflow objects in validator tests
- Fix fuzzy search test query to be less typo-heavy
All TypeScript strict checks now pass successfully.

## Problem
AI assistants were consistently connecting SplitInBatches node outputs backwards because:
- Output index 0 = "done" (runs after loop completes)
- Output index 1 = "loop" (processes items inside loop)
This counterintuitive ordering caused incorrect workflow connections.
## Solution
Enhanced the n8n-mcp system to expose and clarify output information:
### Database & Schema
- Added `outputs` and `output_names` columns to nodes table
- Updated NodeRepository to store/retrieve output information
### Node Parsing
- Enhanced NodeParser to extract outputs and outputNames from nodes
- Properly handles versioned nodes like SplitInBatchesV3
### MCP Server
- Modified getNodeInfo to return detailed output descriptions
- Added connection guidance for each output
- Special handling for loop nodes (SplitInBatches, IF, Switch)
### Documentation
- Enhanced DocsMapper to inject critical output guidance
- Added warnings about counterintuitive output ordering
- Provides correct connection patterns for loop nodes
### Workflow Validation
- Added validateSplitInBatchesConnection method
- Detects reversed connections and provides specific errors
- Added checkForLoopBack with depth limit to prevent stack overflow
- Smart heuristics to identify likely connection mistakes
## Testing
- Created comprehensive test suite (81 tests)
- Unit tests for all modified components
- Edge case handling for malformed data
- Performance testing with large workflows
## Impact
AI assistants will now:
- See explicit output indices and names (e.g., "Output 0: done")
- Receive clear connection guidance
- Get validation errors when connections are reversed
- Have enhanced documentation explaining the correct pattern
