Implements comprehensive execution data filtering system to enable AI agents
to inspect large workflow executions without exceeding token limits.
Features:
- Preview mode: Shows structure, counts, and size estimates (~500 tokens)
- Summary mode: Returns 2 sample items per node (~2-5K tokens)
- Filtered mode: Granular control with itemsLimit and nodeNames
- Full mode: Complete data retrieval (explicit opt-in)
- Smart recommendations based on data size analysis
- Structure-only mode (itemsLimit: 0) for schema inspection
- 100% backward compatibility with legacy includeData parameter
Technical improvements:
- New ExecutionProcessor service with intelligent filtering logic
- Type-safe implementation with Record<string, unknown> over any
- Comprehensive validation and error handling
- 33 unit tests with 78% coverage
- Constants-based thresholds for easy tuning
Bug fixes:
- Fixed preview mode API data fetching to enable structure analysis
- Validates and caps itemsLimit to prevent abuse
Impact:
- Reduces token usage by 80-95% for large datasets (50+ items)
- Prevents token overflow when inspecting workflow executions
- Enables recommended workflow: preview → recommendation → targeted fetch

The 5-operation limit was overly conservative and unnecessary. Analysis showed:
- Workflow is cloned before modifications (no original mutation)
- All operations validated before any are applied (true atomicity)
- First error causes immediate return (no partial state possible)
- Two-pass processing handles dependencies correctly
Changes:
- Remove hard-coded 5-operation limit check from workflow-diff-engine.ts
- Update tool descriptions and documentation to reflect unlimited operations
- Add tests verifying 50 and 100+ operations work successfully
- Add example showing 26 operations in single request
The system already ensures complete transactional integrity regardless of
operation count. Bottleneck is workflow size, not operation count.

- Update "should validate a perfect workflow" test to use correct n8n error output structure
- Changed from non-existent `error:` property to proper `main[1]` for error outputs
- n8n uses main[0] for success paths and main[1] for error paths, not a separate error property
This fixes the failing test in CI that was introduced with the error output validation enhancements.

- Add comprehensive test coverage with 16+ test cases
- Bump version to 2.12.1

## 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
