+
+## [2.28.2] - 2025-12-01
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+**n8n_test_workflow: webhookId Resolution**
+
+Fixed critical bug where trigger handlers used `node.id` instead of `node.webhookId` for building webhook URLs. This caused chat/form/webhook triggers to fail with 404 errors when nodes had custom IDs.
+
+- **Root Cause**: `extractWebhookPath()` in `trigger-detector.ts` fell back to `node.id` instead of checking `node.webhookId` first
+- **Fix**: Added `webhookId` to `WorkflowNode` type and updated priority: `params.path` > `webhookId` > `node.id`
+- **Files**: `src/triggers/trigger-detector.ts`, `src/types/n8n-api.ts`
+
+**n8n_test_workflow: Chat Trigger URL Pattern**
+
+Fixed chat triggers using wrong URL pattern. n8n chat triggers require `/webhook/<id>/chat` suffix.
+
+- **Root Cause**: `buildTriggerUrl()` used same pattern for webhooks and chat triggers
+- **Fix**: Chat triggers now correctly use `/webhook/<webhookId>/chat` endpoint
+- **Files**: `src/triggers/trigger-detector.ts:284-289`
+
+**n8n_test_workflow: Form Trigger Content-Type**
+
+Fixed form triggers failing with "Expected multipart/form-data" error.
+
+- **Root Cause**: Form handler sent `application/json` but n8n requires `multipart/form-data`
+- **Fix**: Switched to `form-data` library for proper multipart encoding
+- **Files**: `src/triggers/handlers/form-handler.ts`
+
+### Enhancements
+
+**Form Handler: Complete Field Type Support**
+
+Enhanced form handler to support all n8n form field types with intelligent handling:
+
+- **Supported Types**: text, textarea, email, number, password, date, dropdown, checkbox, file, hidden, html
+- **Checkbox Arrays**: Automatically converts arrays to `field[]` format required by n8n
+- **File Uploads**: Supports base64 content or sends empty placeholder for required files
+- **Helpful Warnings**: Reports missing required fields with field names and labels
+- **Error Hints**: On failure, provides complete field structure with usage examples
+
+```javascript
+// Example with all field types
+n8n_test_workflow({
+  workflowId: "abc123",
+  data: {
+    "field-0": "text value",
+    "field-1": ["checkbox1", "checkbox2"],  // Array for checkboxes
+    "field-2": "dropdown_option",
+    "field-3": "2025-01-15",                // Date format
+    "field-4": "user@example.com",
+    "field-5": 42,                          // Number
+    "field-6": "password123"

+## [2.28.1] - 2025-12-01
+
+### 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+**Issue #458: AI Connection Type Propagation**
+
+Fixed `addConnection` operation in workflow diff engine defaulting `targetInput` to "main" instead of preserving the source output type. This caused AI tool connections to be created with incorrect type.
+
+- **Root Cause**: `targetInput` defaulted to `'main'` regardless of `sourceOutput` type
+- **Fix**: Changed default to `sourceOutput` to preserve connection type (ai_tool, ai_memory, ai_languageModel)
+- **Files**: `src/services/workflow-diff-engine.ts:760`
+
+**AI Agent Validation False Positive**
+
+Fixed false positive "AI Agent has no tools connected" warning when tools were properly connected.
+
+- **Root Cause**: Validation checked connections FROM agent instead of TO agent
+- **Fix**: Search all connections where target node is the agent
+- **Files**: `src/services/workflow-validator.ts:1148-1163`
+
+### ✨ Enhancements
+
+**get_node: expectedFormat for resourceLocator Properties**
+
+Added `expectedFormat` field to resourceLocator properties in `get_node` output. This helps AI models understand the correct format for these complex property types.
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "model",
+  "type": "resourceLocator",
+  "expectedFormat": {
+    "structure": { "mode": "string", "value": "string" },
+    "modes": ["list", "id"],
+    "example": { "mode": "id", "value": "gpt-4o-mini" }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**get_node: versionNotice Field**
+
+Added `versionNotice` field to make typeVersion more prominent in get_node output, reducing the chance of AI models using outdated versions.
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": "1.3",
+  "versionNotice": "⚠️ Use typeVersion: 1.3 when creating this node"
+}
+```

+## [2.28.0] - 2025-12-01
+
+### ✨ Features
+
+**n8n_test_workflow: Unified Workflow Trigger Tool**
+
+Replaced `n8n_trigger_webhook_workflow` with a new unified `n8n_test_workflow` tool that supports multiple trigger types with auto-detection.
+
+#### Key Features
+
+1. **Auto-Detection of Trigger Type**
+   - Automatically analyzes workflow to detect trigger type (webhook, form, or chat)
+   - No need to specify triggerType unless you want to override detection
+
+2. **Multi-Trigger Support**
+   - **Webhook**: HTTP-based triggers (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE) with custom headers and data
+   - **Form**: Form submission triggers with form field data
+   - **Chat**: AI chat triggers with message and session continuity
+
+3. **SSRF Protection**
+   - All trigger handlers include SSRF URL validation
+   - Blocks requests to private networks, cloud metadata endpoints
+   - Configurable security modes (strict/moderate/permissive)
+
+4. **Extensible Handler Architecture**
+   - Plugin-based trigger handler system
+   - Registry pattern for easy extension
+   - Clean separation of concerns
+
+#### Usage
+
+```javascript
+// Auto-detect trigger type (recommended)
+n8n_test_workflow({workflowId: "123"})
+
+// Webhook with data
+n8n_test_workflow({
+  workflowId: "123",
+  triggerType: "webhook",
+  httpMethod: "POST",
+  data: {name: "John", email: "john@example.com"}
+})
+
+// Chat trigger
+n8n_test_workflow({
+  workflowId: "123",
+  triggerType: "chat",
+  message: "Hello AI assistant",
+  sessionId: "conversation-123"
+})
+
+// Form submission
+n8n_test_workflow({
+  workflowId: "123",
+  triggerType: "form",
+  data: {email: "test@example.com", name: "Test User"}
+})
+```
+
+#### Breaking Changes
+
+- **Removed**: `n8n_trigger_webhook_workflow` tool
+- **Replaced by**: `n8n_test_workflow` with enhanced capabilities
+- **Migration**: Change tool name and add `workflowId` parameter (previously `webhookUrl`)
+
+#### Technical Details
+
+**New Files:**
+- `src/triggers/` - Complete trigger system module
+  - `types.ts` - Type definitions for all trigger types
+  - `trigger-detector.ts` - Auto-detection logic
+  - `trigger-registry.ts` - Handler registration
+  - `handlers/` - Individual handler implementations
+
+**Modified Files:**
+- `src/mcp/handlers-n8n-manager.ts` - New `handleTestWorkflow` function
+- `src/mcp/tools-n8n-manager.ts` - Updated tool definition
+- `src/mcp/tool-docs/workflow_management/` - New documentation
+
+**Test Coverage:**
+- 32 unit tests for trigger detection and registry
+- 30 unit tests for SSRF protection
+- All parameter validation tests updated

+## [2.27.2] - 2025-11-29
+
+### ✨ Enhanced Features
+
+**n8n_deploy_template: Deploy-First with Auto-Fix**
+
+Improved the template deployment tool to deploy first, then automatically fix common issues. This change dramatically improves deployment success rates for templates with expression format issues.
+
+#### Key Changes
+
+1. **Deploy-First Behavior**
+   - Templates are now deployed first without pre-validation
+   - Auto-fix runs automatically after deployment (configurable via `autoFix` parameter)
+   - Returns `fixesApplied` array showing all corrections made
+
+2. **Fixed Expression Validator False Positive**
+   - Fixed "nested expressions" detection that incorrectly flagged valid patterns
+   - Multiple expressions in one string like `={{ $a }} text {{ $b }}` now correctly pass validation
+   - Only truly nested patterns like `{{ {{ $json }} }}` are flagged as errors
+
+3. **Fixed Zod Schema Validation**
+   - Added missing `typeversion-upgrade` and `version-migration` fix types to autofix schema
+   - Prevents silent validation failures when autofix runs
+
+#### Usage
+
+```javascript
+// Deploy with auto-fix (default behavior)
+n8n_deploy_template({
+  templateId: 2776,
+  name: "My Workflow"
+})
+
+// Deploy without auto-fix (not recommended)
+n8n_deploy_template({
+  templateId: 2776,
+  autoFix: false
+})
+```
+
+#### Response
+
+```json
+{
+  "workflowId": "abc123",
+  "name": "My Workflow",
+  "fixesApplied": [
+    {
+      "node": "HTTP Request",
+      "field": "url",
+      "type": "expression-format",
+      "before": "https://api.com/{{ $json.id }}",
+      "after": "=https://api.com/{{ $json.id }}",
+      "confidence": "high"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+#### Testing Results
+
+- 87% deployment success rate across 15 diverse templates
+- Auto-fix correctly adds `=` prefix to expressions missing it
+- Auto-fix correctly upgrades outdated typeVersions
+- Failed deployments are legitimate issues (missing community nodes, incomplete templates)

+## [2.27.1] - 2025-11-29
+
+### 🐛 Bug Fixes
+
+**Issue #454: Docker Image Missing Zod Fix from #450**
+
+Fixed Docker image build that was missing the pinned MCP SDK version, causing `n8n_create_workflow` Zod validation errors to persist in the 2.27.0 Docker image.
+
+#### Root Cause
+
+Two files were not updated when #450 pinned the SDK version in `package.json`:
+- `package.runtime.json` had `"@modelcontextprotocol/sdk": "^1.13.2"` instead of `"1.20.1"`
+- `Dockerfile` builder stage had `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@^1.12.1` hardcoded
+
+The Docker runtime stage uses `package.runtime.json` (not `package.json`), and the builder stage has hardcoded dependency versions.
+
+#### Changes
+
+- **package.runtime.json**: Updated SDK to pinned version `"1.20.1"` (no caret)
+- **Dockerfile**: Updated builder stage SDK to `@1.20.1` and pinned `zod@3.24.1`
+
+#### Impact
+
+- Docker images now include the correct MCP SDK version with Zod fix
+- `n8n_create_workflow` and other workflow tools work correctly in Docker deployments
+- No changes to functionality - this is a build configuration fix
+
+Fixes #454

+
+## [2.26.0] - 2025-01-25
+
+### ✨ Features
+
+**Tool Consolidation - Reduced Tool Count by 38%**
+
+Major consolidation of MCP tools from 31 tools to 19 tools, using mode-based parameters for better AI agent ergonomics. This reduces cognitive load for AI agents while maintaining full functionality.
+
+#### Consolidated Tools
+
+**1. Node Tools - `get_node` Enhanced**
+
+The `get_node` tool now supports additional modes:
+- `mode='docs'`: Replaces `get_node_documentation` - returns readable docs with examples
+- `mode='search_properties'`: Replaces `search_node_properties` - search within node properties
+
+```javascript
+// Old: get_node_documentation
+get_node_documentation({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack"})
+// New: mode='docs'
+get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", mode: "docs"})
+
+// Old: search_node_properties
+search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest", query: "auth"})
+// New: mode='search_properties'
+get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest", mode: "search_properties", propertyQuery: "auth"})
+```
+
+**2. Validation Tools - `validate_node` Unified**
+
+Consolidated `validate_node_operation` and `validate_node_minimal` into single `validate_node`:
+- `mode='full'`: Full validation (replaces `validate_node_operation`)
+- `mode='minimal'`: Quick required fields check (replaces `validate_node_minimal`)
+
+```javascript
+// Old: validate_node_operation
+validate_node_operation({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {...}})
+// New: mode='full' (default)
+validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {...}, mode: "full"})
+
+// Old: validate_node_minimal
+validate_node_minimal({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {}})
+// New: mode='minimal'
+validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {}, mode: "minimal"})
+```
+
+**3. Template Tools - `search_templates` Enhanced**
+
+Consolidated `list_node_templates`, `search_templates_by_metadata`, and `get_templates_for_task`:
+- `searchMode='keyword'`: Search by keywords (default, was `search_templates`)
+- `searchMode='by_nodes'`: Search by node types (was `list_node_templates`)
+- `searchMode='by_metadata'`: Search by AI metadata (was `search_templates_by_metadata`)
+- `searchMode='by_task'`: Search by task type (was `get_templates_for_task`)
+
+```javascript
+// Old: list_node_templates
+list_node_templates({nodeTypes: ["n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest"]})
+// New: searchMode='by_nodes'
+search_templates({searchMode: "by_nodes", nodeTypes: ["n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest"]})
+
+// Old: get_templates_for_task
+get_templates_for_task({task: "webhook_processing"})
+// New: searchMode='by_task'
+search_templates({searchMode: "by_task", task: "webhook_processing"})
+```
+
+**4. Workflow Getters - `n8n_get_workflow` Enhanced**
+
+Consolidated `n8n_get_workflow_details`, `n8n_get_workflow_structure`, `n8n_get_workflow_minimal`:
+- `mode='full'`: Complete workflow data (default)
+- `mode='details'`: Workflow with metadata (was `n8n_get_workflow_details`)
+- `mode='structure'`: Nodes and connections only (was `n8n_get_workflow_structure`)
+- `mode='minimal'`: ID, name, active status (was `n8n_get_workflow_minimal`)
+
+```javascript
+// Old: n8n_get_workflow_details
+n8n_get_workflow_details({id: "123"})
+// New: mode='details'
+n8n_get_workflow({id: "123", mode: "details"})
+
+// Old: n8n_get_workflow_minimal
+n8n_get_workflow_minimal({id: "123"})
+// New: mode='minimal'
+n8n_get_workflow({id: "123", mode: "minimal"})
+```
+
+**5. Execution Tools - `n8n_executions` Unified**
+
+Consolidated `n8n_list_executions`, `n8n_get_execution`, `n8n_delete_execution`:
+- `action='list'`: List executions with filters
+- `action='get'`: Get single execution details
+- `action='delete'`: Delete an execution
+
+```javascript
+// Old: n8n_list_executions
+n8n_list_executions({workflowId: "123", status: "success"})
+// New: action='list'
+n8n_executions({action: "list", workflowId: "123", status: "success"})
+
+// Old: n8n_get_execution
+n8n_get_execution({id: "456"})
+// New: action='get'
+n8n_executions({action: "get", id: "456"})
+
+// Old: n8n_delete_execution
+n8n_delete_execution({id: "456"})
+// New: action='delete'
+n8n_executions({action: "delete", id: "456"})
+```
+
+### 🗑️ Removed Tools
+
+The following tools have been removed (use consolidated equivalents):
+- `get_node_documentation` → `get_node` with `mode='docs'`
+- `search_node_properties` → `get_node` with `mode='search_properties'`
+- `get_property_dependencies` → Removed (use `validate_node` for dependency info)
+- `validate_node_operation` → `validate_node` with `mode='full'`
+- `validate_node_minimal` → `validate_node` with `mode='minimal'`
+- `list_node_templates` → `search_templates` with `searchMode='by_nodes'`
+- `search_templates_by_metadata` → `search_templates` with `searchMode='by_metadata'`
+- `get_templates_for_task` → `search_templates` with `searchMode='by_task'`
+- `n8n_get_workflow_details` → `n8n_get_workflow` with `mode='details'`
+- `n8n_get_workflow_structure` → `n8n_get_workflow` with `mode='structure'`
+- `n8n_get_workflow_minimal` → `n8n_get_workflow` with `mode='minimal'`
+- `n8n_list_executions` → `n8n_executions` with `action='list'`
+- `n8n_get_execution` → `n8n_executions` with `action='get'`
+- `n8n_delete_execution` → `n8n_executions` with `action='delete'`
+
+### 📊 Impact
+
+**Tool Count**: 31 → 19 tools (38% reduction)
+
+**For AI Agents:**
+- Fewer tools to choose from reduces decision complexity
+- Mode-based parameters provide clear action disambiguation
+- Consistent patterns across tool categories
+- Backward-compatible parameter handling
+
+**For Users:**
+- Simpler tool discovery and documentation
+- Consistent API design patterns
+- Reduced token usage in tool descriptions
+
+### 🔧 Technical Details

+# Antigravity Setup
+
+:white_check_mark: This n8n MCP server is compatible with Antigravity (Chat in IDE).
+
+## Preconditions
+
+Assuming you've already deployed the n8n MCP server locally and connected it to the n8n API, and it's available at:
+`http://localhost:5678`
+
+Or if you are using `https://n8n.your.production.url/` then just replace the URLs in the below code.
+
+💡 The deployment process is documented in the [HTTP Deployment Guide](./HTTP_DEPLOYMENT.md).
+
+## Step 1
+
+Add n8n-mcp globally: `npm install -g n8n-mcp`
+
+## Step 2
+
+Add MCP server by clicking three dots `...` on the top right of chat, and click MCP Servers.
+Then click on "Manage MCP Servers" and then click on "View raw config" and `C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\.gemini\antigravity\mcp_config.json` will be opened.
+
+## Step 3
+
+Add the following code to: `C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\.gemini\antigravity\mcp_config.json` and save the file.
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "n8n-mcp": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": [
+        "C:\\Users\\<USER_NAME>\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node_modules\\n8n-mcp\\dist\\mcp\\index.js"

+        "N8N_API_KEY": ""
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}

+## Core Principles
+
+### 1. Silent Execution
+CRITICAL: Execute tools without commentary. Only respond AFTER all tools complete.
+
+❌ BAD: "Let me search for Slack nodes... Great! Now let me get details..."
+✅ GOOD: [Execute search_nodes and get_node in parallel, then respond]
+
+### 2. Parallel Execution
+When operations are independent, execute them in parallel for maximum performance.
+
+✅ GOOD: Call search_nodes, list_nodes, and search_templates simultaneously
+❌ BAD: Sequential tool calls (await each one before the next)
+
+### 3. Templates First
+ALWAYS check templates before building from scratch (2,709 available).
+
+### 4. Multi-Level Validation
+Use validate_node(mode='minimal') → validate_node(mode='full') → validate_workflow pattern.
+
+### 5. Never Trust Defaults
+⚠️ CRITICAL: Default parameter values are the #1 source of runtime failures.
+ALWAYS explicitly configure ALL parameters that control node behavior.
+
+## Workflow Process
+
+1. **Start**: Call `tools_documentation()` for best practices
+
+2. **Template Discovery Phase** (FIRST - parallel when searching multiple)
+   - `search_templates({searchMode: 'by_metadata', complexity: 'simple'})` - Smart filtering
+   - `search_templates({searchMode: 'by_task', task: 'webhook_processing'})` - Curated by task
+   - `search_templates({query: 'slack notification'})` - Text search (default searchMode='keyword')
+   - `search_templates({searchMode: 'by_nodes', nodeTypes: ['n8n-nodes-base.slack']})` - By node type
+
+   **Filtering strategies**:
+   - Beginners: `complexity: "simple"` + `maxSetupMinutes: 30`
+   - By role: `targetAudience: "marketers"` | `"developers"` | `"analysts"`
+   - By time: `maxSetupMinutes: 15` for quick wins
+   - By service: `requiredService: "openai"` for compatibility
+
+3. **Node Discovery** (if no suitable template - parallel execution)
+   - Think deeply about requirements. Ask clarifying questions if unclear.
+   - `search_nodes({query: 'keyword', includeExamples: true})` - Parallel for multiple nodes
+   - `search_nodes({query: 'trigger'})` - Browse triggers
+   - `search_nodes({query: 'AI agent langchain'})` - AI-capable nodes
+
+4. **Configuration Phase** (parallel for multiple nodes)
+   - `get_node({nodeType, detail: 'standard', includeExamples: true})` - Essential properties (default)
+   - `get_node({nodeType, detail: 'minimal'})` - Basic metadata only (~200 tokens)
+   - `get_node({nodeType, detail: 'full'})` - Complete information (~3000-8000 tokens)
+   - `get_node({nodeType, mode: 'search_properties', propertyQuery: 'auth'})` - Find specific properties
+   - `get_node({nodeType, mode: 'docs'})` - Human-readable markdown documentation
+   - Show workflow architecture to user for approval before proceeding
+
+5. **Validation Phase** (parallel for multiple nodes)
+   - `validate_node({nodeType, config, mode: 'minimal'})` - Quick required fields check
+   - `validate_node({nodeType, config, mode: 'full', profile: 'runtime'})` - Full validation with fixes
+   - Fix ALL errors before proceeding
+
+6. **Building Phase**
+   - If using template: `get_template(templateId, {mode: "full"})`
+   - **MANDATORY ATTRIBUTION**: "Based on template by **[author.name]** (@[username]). View at: [url]"
+   - Build from validated configurations
+   - ⚠️ EXPLICITLY set ALL parameters - never rely on defaults
+   - Connect nodes with proper structure
+   - Add error handling
+   - Use n8n expressions: $json, $node["NodeName"].json
+   - Build in artifact (unless deploying to n8n instance)
+
+7. **Workflow Validation** (before deployment)
+   - `validate_workflow(workflow)` - Complete validation
+   - `validate_workflow_connections(workflow)` - Structure check
+   - `validate_workflow_expressions(workflow)` - Expression validation
+   - Fix ALL issues before deployment
+
+8. **Deployment** (if n8n API configured)
+   - `n8n_create_workflow(workflow)` - Deploy
+   - `n8n_validate_workflow({id})` - Post-deployment check
+   - `n8n_update_partial_workflow({id, operations: [...]})` - Batch updates
+   - `n8n_trigger_webhook_workflow()` - Test webhooks
+
+## Critical Warnings
+
+### ⚠️ Never Trust Defaults
+Default values cause runtime failures. Example:
+```json
+// ❌ FAILS at runtime
+{resource: "message", operation: "post", text: "Hello"}
+
+// ✅ WORKS - all parameters explicit
+{resource: "message", operation: "post", select: "channel", channelId: "C123", text: "Hello"}
+```
+
+### ⚠️ Example Availability
+`includeExamples: true` returns real configurations from workflow templates.
+- Coverage varies by node popularity
+- When no examples available, use `get_node` + `validate_node({mode: 'minimal'})`
+
+## Validation Strategy
+
+### Level 1 - Quick Check (before building)
+`validate_node({nodeType, config, mode: 'minimal'})` - Required fields only (<100ms)
+
+### Level 2 - Comprehensive (before building)
+`validate_node({nodeType, config, mode: 'full', profile: 'runtime'})` - Full validation with fixes
+
+### Level 3 - Complete (after building)
+`validate_workflow(workflow)` - Connections, expressions, AI tools
+
+### Level 4 - Post-Deployment
+1. `n8n_validate_workflow({id})` - Validate deployed workflow
+2. `n8n_autofix_workflow({id})` - Auto-fix common errors
+3. `n8n_executions({action: 'list'})` - Monitor execution status
+
+## Response Format
+
+### Initial Creation
+```
+[Silent tool execution in parallel]
+
+Created workflow:
+- Webhook trigger → Slack notification
+- Configured: POST /webhook → #general channel
+
+Validation: ✅ All checks passed
+```
+
+### Modifications
+```
+[Silent tool execution]
+
+Updated workflow:
+- Added error handling to HTTP node
+- Fixed required Slack parameters
+
+Changes validated successfully.
+```
+
+## Batch Operations
+
+Use `n8n_update_partial_workflow` with multiple operations in a single call:
+
+✅ GOOD - Batch multiple operations:
+```json
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf-123",
+  operations: [
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "slack-1", changes: {...}},
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "http-1", changes: {...}},
+    {type: "cleanStaleConnections"}
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+❌ BAD - Separate calls:
+```json
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({id: "wf-123", operations: [{...}]})
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({id: "wf-123", operations: [{...}]})
+```
+
+###   CRITICAL: addConnection Syntax
+
+The `addConnection` operation requires **four separate string parameters**. Common mistakes cause misleading errors.
+
+❌ WRONG - Object format (fails with "Expected string, received object"):
+```json
+{
+  "type": "addConnection",
+  "connection": {
+    "source": {"nodeId": "node-1", "outputIndex": 0},
+    "destination": {"nodeId": "node-2", "inputIndex": 0}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+❌ WRONG - Combined string (fails with "Source node not found"):
+```json
+{
+  "type": "addConnection",
+  "source": "node-1:main:0",
+  "target": "node-2:main:0"
+}
+```
+
+✅ CORRECT - Four separate string parameters:
+```json
+{
+  "type": "addConnection",
+  "source": "node-id-string",
+  "target": "target-node-id-string",
+  "sourcePort": "main",
+  "targetPort": "main"
+}
+```
+
+**Reference**: [GitHub Issue #327](https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp/issues/327)
+
+### ⚠️ CRITICAL: IF Node Multi-Output Routing
+
+IF nodes have **two outputs** (TRUE and FALSE). Use the **`branch` parameter** to route to the correct output:
+
+✅ CORRECT - Route to TRUE branch (when condition is met):
+```json
+{
+  "type": "addConnection",
+  "source": "if-node-id",
+  "target": "success-handler-id",
+  "sourcePort": "main",
+  "targetPort": "main",
+  "branch": "true"
+}
+```
+
+✅ CORRECT - Route to FALSE branch (when condition is NOT met):
+```json
+{
+  "type": "addConnection",
+  "source": "if-node-id",
+  "target": "failure-handler-id",
+  "sourcePort": "main",
+  "targetPort": "main",
+  "branch": "false"
+}
+```
+
+**Common Pattern** - Complete IF node routing:
+```json
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "workflow-id",
+  operations: [
+    {type: "addConnection", source: "If Node", target: "True Handler", sourcePort: "main", targetPort: "main", branch: "true"},
+    {type: "addConnection", source: "If Node", target: "False Handler", sourcePort: "main", targetPort: "main", branch: "false"}
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+**Note**: Without the `branch` parameter, both connections may end up on the same output, causing logic errors!
+
+### removeConnection Syntax
+
+Use the same four-parameter format:
+```json
+{
+  "type": "removeConnection",
+  "source": "source-node-id",
+  "target": "target-node-id",
+  "sourcePort": "main",
+  "targetPort": "main"
+}
+```
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+### Template-First Approach
+
+```
+// STEP 1: Template Discovery (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+search_templates({
+  searchMode: 'by_metadata',
+  requiredService: 'slack',
+  complexity: 'simple',
+  targetAudience: 'marketers'
+})
+search_templates({searchMode: 'by_task', task: 'slack_integration'})
+
+// STEP 2: Use template
+get_template(templateId, {mode: 'full'})
+validate_workflow(workflow)
+
+// Response after all tools complete:
+"Found template by **David Ashby** (@cfomodz).
+View at: https://n8n.io/workflows/2414
+
+Validation: ✅ All checks passed"
+```
+
+### Building from Scratch (if no template)
+
+```
+// STEP 1: Discovery (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+search_nodes({query: 'slack', includeExamples: true})
+search_nodes({query: 'communication trigger'})
+
+// STEP 2: Configuration (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+get_node({nodeType: 'n8n-nodes-base.slack', detail: 'standard', includeExamples: true})
+get_node({nodeType: 'n8n-nodes-base.webhook', detail: 'standard', includeExamples: true})
+
+// STEP 3: Validation (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+validate_node({nodeType: 'n8n-nodes-base.slack', config, mode: 'minimal'})
+validate_node({nodeType: 'n8n-nodes-base.slack', config: fullConfig, mode: 'full', profile: 'runtime'})
+
+// STEP 4: Build
+// Construct workflow with validated configs
+// ⚠️ Set ALL parameters explicitly
+
+// STEP 5: Validate
+[Silent execution]
+validate_workflow(workflowJson)
+
+// Response after all tools complete:
+"Created workflow: Webhook → Slack
+Validation: ✅ Passed"
+```
+
+### Batch Updates
+
+```json
+// ONE call with multiple operations
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf-123",
+  operations: [
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "slack-1", changes: {position: [100, 200]}},
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "http-1", changes: {position: [300, 200]}},
+    {type: "cleanStaleConnections"}
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+## Important Rules
+
+### Core Behavior
+1. **Silent execution** - No commentary between tools
+2. **Parallel by default** - Execute independent operations simultaneously
+3. **Templates first** - Always check before building (2,709 available)
+4. **Multi-level validation** - Quick check → Full validation → Workflow validation
+5. **Never trust defaults** - Explicitly configure ALL parameters
+
+### Attribution & Credits
+- **MANDATORY TEMPLATE ATTRIBUTION**: Share author name, username, and n8n.io link
+- **Template validation** - Always validate before deployment (may need updates)
+
+### Performance
+- **Batch operations** - Use diff operations with multiple changes in one call
+- **Parallel execution** - Search, validate, and configure simultaneously
+- **Template metadata** - Use smart filtering for faster discovery
+
+### Code Node Usage
+- **Avoid when possible** - Prefer standard nodes
+- **Only when necessary** - Use code node as last resort
+- **AI tool capability** - ANY node can be an AI tool (not just marked ones)
+
+### Most Popular n8n Nodes (for get_node):
+
+1. **n8n-nodes-base.code** - JavaScript/Python scripting
+2. **n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest** - HTTP API calls
+3. **n8n-nodes-base.webhook** - Event-driven triggers
+4. **n8n-nodes-base.set** - Data transformation
+5. **n8n-nodes-base.if** - Conditional routing
+6. **n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger** - Manual workflow execution
+7. **n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook** - Webhook responses
+8. **n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger** - Time-based triggers
+9. **@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent** - AI agents
+10. **n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets** - Spreadsheet integration
+11. **n8n-nodes-base.merge** - Data merging
+12. **n8n-nodes-base.switch** - Multi-branch routing
+13. **n8n-nodes-base.telegram** - Telegram bot integration
+14. **@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi** - OpenAI chat models
+15. **n8n-nodes-base.splitInBatches** - Batch processing
+16. **n8n-nodes-base.openAi** - OpenAI legacy node
+17. **n8n-nodes-base.gmail** - Email automation
+18. **n8n-nodes-base.function** - Custom functions
+19. **n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote** - Workflow documentation
+20. **n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger** - Sub-workflow calls
+
+**Note:** LangChain nodes use the `@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.` prefix, core nodes use `n8n-nodes-base.`
+
+````
+
+This helps the agent produce higher-quality, well-structured n8n workflows.
+
+🧪 This setup is for windows but for Mac and Linux also, it is similar, just provide the absolute path of the global `n8n-mcp` install! 😄 Stay tuned for updates!

-    errorHandling: `**Enhanced Error Messages with Execution Guidance**
-
-When a webhook trigger fails, the error response now includes specific guidance to help debug the issue:
-
-**Error with Execution ID** (workflow started but failed):
-- Format: "Workflow {workflowId} execution {executionId} failed. Use n8n_get_execution({id: '{executionId}', mode: 'preview'}) to investigate the error."
-- Response includes: executionId and workflowId fields for direct access
-- Recommended action: Use n8n_get_execution with mode='preview' for fast, efficient error inspection
-
-**Error without Execution ID** (workflow didn't start):
-- Format: "Workflow failed to execute. Use n8n_list_executions to find recent executions, then n8n_get_execution with mode='preview' to investigate."
-- Recommended action: Check recent executions with n8n_list_executions
-
-**Why mode='preview'?**
-- Fast: <50ms response time
-- Efficient: ~500 tokens (vs 50K+ for full mode)
-- Safe: No timeout or token limit risks
-- Informative: Shows structure, counts, and error details
-- Provides recommendations for fetching more data if needed
-
-**Example Error Responses**:
-\`\`\`json
-{
-  "success": false,
-  "error": "Workflow wf_123 execution exec_456 failed. Use n8n_get_execution({id: 'exec_456', mode: 'preview'}) to investigate the error.",
-  "executionId": "exec_456",
-  "workflowId": "wf_123",
-  "code": "SERVER_ERROR"
-}
-\`\`\`
-
-**Investigation Workflow**:
-1. Trigger returns error with execution ID
-2. Call n8n_get_execution({id: executionId, mode: 'preview'}) to see structure and error
-3. Based on preview recommendation, fetch more data if needed
-4. Fix issues in workflow and retry`,

 **Important Notes**:
 - **AI nodes do NOT require main connections**: Nodes like OpenAI Chat Model, Postgres Chat Memory, Embeddings OpenAI, and Supabase Vector Store use AI-specific connection types exclusively. They should ONLY have connections like \`ai_languageModel\`, \`ai_memory\`, \`ai_embedding\`, or \`ai_tool\` - NOT \`main\` connections.
-- **Fixed in v2.21.1**: Validation now correctly recognizes AI nodes that only have AI-specific connections without requiring \`main\` connections (resolves issue #357).
 
 **Best Practices**:
 - Always specify \`sourceOutput\` for AI connections (defaults to "main" if omitted)

 /**
  * QUICK REFERENCE for AI Agents:
- * 
+ *
  * 1. RECOMMENDED WORKFLOW:
- *    - Start: search_nodes → get_node_essentials → get_node_for_task → validate_node_operation
- *    - Discovery: list_nodes({category:"trigger"}) for browsing categories
- *    - Quick Config: get_node_essentials("nodes-base.httpRequest") - only essential properties
- *    - Full Details: get_node_info only when essentials aren't enough
- *    - Validation: Use validate_node_operation for complex nodes (Slack, Google Sheets, etc.)
- * 
+ *    - Start: search_nodes → get_node → validate_node
+ *    - Discovery: search_nodes({query:"trigger"}) for finding nodes
+ *    - Quick Config: get_node("nodes-base.httpRequest", {detail:"standard"}) - only essential properties
+ *    - Documentation: get_node("nodes-base.httpRequest", {mode:"docs"}) - readable markdown docs
+ *    - Find Properties: get_node("nodes-base.httpRequest", {mode:"search_properties", propertyQuery:"auth"})
+ *    - Full Details: get_node with detail="full" only when standard isn't enough
+ *    - Validation: Use validate_node for complex nodes (Slack, Google Sheets, etc.)
+ *
  * 2. COMMON NODE TYPES:
  *    Triggers: webhook, schedule, emailReadImap, slackTrigger
  *    Core: httpRequest, code, set, if, merge, splitInBatches
  *    Integrations: slack, gmail, googleSheets, postgres, mongodb
  *    AI: agent, openAi, chainLlm, documentLoader
- * 
+ *
  * 3. SEARCH TIPS:
  *    - search_nodes returns ANY word match (OR logic)
  *    - Single words more precise, multiple words broader
- *    - If no results: use list_nodes with category filter
- * 
+ *    - If no results: try different keywords or partial names
+ *
  * 4. TEMPLATE SEARCHING:
  *    - search_templates("slack") searches template names/descriptions, NOT node types!
- *    - To find templates using Slack node: list_node_templates(["n8n-nodes-base.slack"])
- *    - For task-based templates: get_templates_for_task("slack_integration")
- *    - 399 templates available from the last year
- * 
+ *    - To find templates using Slack node: search_templates({searchMode:"by_nodes", nodeTypes:["n8n-nodes-base.slack"]})
+ *    - For task-based templates: search_templates({searchMode:"by_task", task:"slack_integration"})
+ *
  * 5. KNOWN ISSUES:
  *    - Some nodes have duplicate properties with different conditions
  *    - Package names: use 'n8n-nodes-base' not '@n8n/n8n-nodes-base'
  *    - Check showWhen/hideWhen to identify the right property variant
- * 
+ *
  * 6. PERFORMANCE:
- *    - get_node_essentials: Fast (<5KB)
- *    - get_node_info: Slow (100KB+) - use sparingly
- *    - search_nodes/list_nodes: Fast, cached
+ *    - get_node (detail=standard): Fast (<5KB)
+ *    - get_node (detail=full): Slow (100KB+) - use sparingly
+ *    - search_nodes: Fast, cached
