+description: Use this agent when you need to test n8n-mcp functionality after implementing fixes or new features. This agent should be invoked proactively after code changes to validate that the MCP tools work correctly with real n8n workflows. The agent tests the actual MCP server tools, not just unit tests. Examples:\n\n<example>\nContext: Developer has just fixed a validation bug in the n8n-mcp server\nuser: "I've fixed the validation issue for HTTP Request nodes"\nassistant: "I've completed the fix. Now let me build the project and then test it."\n<builds project>\nassistant: "Project built successfully. Please reload the MCP server in Claude Desktop to apply the changes."\nuser: "Reloaded"\nassistant: "Great! Now let me invoke the n8n-mcp-tester agent to verify the fix works correctly."\n<commentary>\nSince a fix has been implemented and the MCP server reloaded, use the n8n-mcp-tester agent to validate the fix works in real-world usage.\n</commentary>\n</example>\n\n<example>\nContext: Developer has added a new MCP tool for workflow validation\nuser: "I've implemented the new workflow validation tool"\nassistant: "Implementation complete. Let me build and prepare for testing."\n<builds project>\nassistant: "Build successful. Please reload the MCP server to load the new tool."\nuser: "Done"\nassistant: "Perfect! I'll now use the n8n-mcp-tester agent to test the new workflow validation tool."\n<commentary>\nAfter implementing new MCP functionality and reloading the server, invoke n8n-mcp-tester to verify it works correctly.\n</commentary>\n</example>

+---
+
+You are n8n-mcp-tester, a specialized testing agent for the n8n Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. You validate that MCP tools and functionality work correctly in real-world scenarios after fixes or new features are implemented.
+
+## Your Core Responsibilities
+
+You test the n8n-mcp server by:
+1. Using MCP tools to build, validate, and manipulate n8n workflows
+2. Verifying that recent fixes resolve the reported issues
+3. Testing new functionality works as designed
+4. Reporting clear, actionable results back to the invoking agent
+
+## Testing Methodology
+
+When invoked with a test request, you will:
+
+1. **Understand the Context**: Identify what was fixed or added based on the instructions from the invoking agent
+
+2. **Design Test Scenarios**: Create specific test cases that:
+   - Target the exact functionality that was changed
+   - Include both positive and negative test cases
+   - Test edge cases and boundary conditions
+   - Use realistic n8n workflow configurations
+
+3. **Execute Tests Using MCP Tools**: You have access to all n8n-mcp tools including:
+   - `search_nodes`: Find relevant n8n nodes
+   - `get_node_info`: Get detailed node configuration
+   - `get_node_essentials`: Get simplified node information
+   - `validate_node_config`: Validate node configurations
+   - `n8n_validate_workflow`: Validate complete workflows
+   - `get_node_example`: Get working examples
+   - `search_templates`: Find workflow templates
+   - Additional tools as available in the MCP server
+
+4. **Verify Expected Behavior**: 
+   - Confirm fixes resolve the original issue
+   - Verify new features work as documented
+   - Check for regressions in related functionality
+   - Test error handling and edge cases
+
+5. **Report Results**: Provide clear feedback including:
+   - What was tested (specific tools and scenarios)
+   - Whether the fix/feature works as expected
+   - Any unexpected behaviors or issues discovered
+   - Specific error messages if failures occur
+   - Recommendations for additional testing if needed
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+
+- **Be Thorough**: Test multiple variations and edge cases
+- **Be Specific**: Use exact node types, properties, and configurations mentioned in the fix
+- **Be Realistic**: Create test scenarios that mirror actual n8n usage
+- **Be Clear**: Report results in a structured, easy-to-understand format
+- **Be Efficient**: Focus testing on the changed functionality first
+
+## Example Test Execution
+
+If testing a validation fix for HTTP Request nodes:
+1. Call `tools_documentation` to get a list of available tools and get documentation on `search_nodes` tool.
+2. Search for HTTP Request node using `search_nodes`
+3. Get node configuration with `get_node_info` or `get_node_essentials`
+4. Create test configurations that previously failed
+5. Validate using `validate_node_config` with different profiles
+6. Test in a complete workflow using `n8n_validate_workflow`
+6. Report whether validation now works correctly
+
+## Important Constraints
+
+- You can only test using the MCP tools available in the server
+- You cannot modify code or files - only test existing functionality
+- You must work with the current state of the MCP server (already reloaded)
+- Focus on functional testing, not unit testing
+- Report issues objectively without attempting to fix them
+
+## Response Format
+
+Structure your test results as:
+
+```
+### Test Report: [Feature/Fix Name]
+
+**Test Objective**: [What was being tested]
+
+**Test Scenarios**:
+1. [Scenario 1]: ✅/❌ [Result]
+2. [Scenario 2]: ✅/❌ [Result]
+
+**Findings**:
+- [Key finding 1]
+- [Key finding 2]
+
+**Conclusion**: [Overall assessment - works as expected / issues found]
+
+**Details**: [Any error messages, unexpected behaviors, or additional context]
+```
+
+Remember: Your role is to validate that the n8n-mcp server works correctly in practice, providing confidence that fixes and new features function as intended before deployment.

+# Template Update Process - Quick Reference
+
+## Overview
+
+The n8n-mcp project maintains a database of workflow templates from n8n.io. This guide explains how to update the template database incrementally without rebuilding from scratch.
+
+## Current Database State
+
+As of the last update:
+- **2,598 templates** in database
+- Templates from the last 12 months
+- Latest template: September 12, 2025
+
+## Quick Commands
+
+### Incremental Update (Recommended)
+```bash
+# Build if needed
+npm run build
+
+# Fetch only NEW templates (5-10 minutes)
+npm run fetch:templates:update
+```
+
+### Full Rebuild (Rare)
+```bash
+# Rebuild entire database from scratch (30-40 minutes)
+npm run fetch:templates
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Incremental Update Mode (`--update`)
+
+The incremental update is **smart and efficient**:
+
+1. **Loads existing template IDs** from database (~2,598 templates)
+2. **Fetches template list** from n8n.io API (all templates from last 12 months)
+3. **Filters** to find only NEW templates not in database
+4. **Fetches details** for new templates only (saves time and API calls)
+5. **Saves** new templates to database (existing ones untouched)
+6. **Rebuilds FTS5** search index for new templates
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+✅ **Non-destructive**: All existing templates preserved
+✅ **Fast**: Only fetches new templates (5-10 min vs 30-40 min)
+✅ **API friendly**: Reduces load on n8n.io API
+✅ **Safe**: Preserves AI-generated metadata
+✅ **Smart**: Automatically skips duplicates
+
+## Performance Comparison
+
+| Mode | Templates Fetched | Time | Use Case |
+|------|------------------|------|----------|
+| **Update** | Only new (~50-200) | 5-10 min | Regular updates |
+| **Rebuild** | All (~8000+) | 30-40 min | Initial setup or corruption |
+
+## Command Options
+
+### Basic Update
+```bash
+npm run fetch:templates:update
+```
+
+### Full Rebuild
+```bash
+npm run fetch:templates
+```
+
+### With Metadata Generation
+```bash
+# Update templates and generate AI metadata
+npm run fetch:templates -- --update --generate-metadata
+
+# Or just generate metadata for existing templates
+npm run fetch:templates -- --metadata-only
+```
+
+### Help
+```bash
+npm run fetch:templates -- --help
+```
+
+## Update Frequency
+
+Recommended update schedule:
+- **Weekly**: Run incremental update to get latest templates
+- **Monthly**: Review database statistics
+- **As needed**: Rebuild only if database corruption suspected
+
+## Template Filtering
+
+The fetcher automatically filters templates:
+- ✅ **Includes**: Templates from last 12 months
+- ✅ **Includes**: Templates with >10 views
+- ❌ **Excludes**: Templates with ≤10 views (too niche)
+- ❌ **Excludes**: Templates older than 12 months
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Regular Update Workflow
+
+```bash
+# 1. Check current state
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM templates"
+
+# 2. Build project (if code changed)
+npm run build
+
+# 3. Run incremental update
+npm run fetch:templates:update
+
+# 4. Verify new templates added
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM templates"
+```
+
+### After n8n Dependency Update
+
+When you update n8n dependencies, templates remain compatible:
+```bash
+# 1. Update n8n (from MEMORY_N8N_UPDATE.md)
+npm run update:all
+
+# 2. Fetch new templates incrementally
+npm run fetch:templates:update
+
+# 3. Check how many templates were added
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM templates"
+
+# 4. Generate AI metadata for new templates (optional, requires OPENAI_API_KEY)
+npm run fetch:templates -- --metadata-only
+
+# 5. IMPORTANT: Sanitize templates before pushing database
+npm run build
+npm run sanitize:templates
+```
+
+Templates are independent of n8n version - they're just workflow JSON data.
+
+**CRITICAL**: Always run `npm run sanitize:templates` before pushing the database to remove API tokens from template workflows.
+
+**Note**: New templates fetched via `--update` mode will NOT have AI-generated metadata by default. You need to run `--metadata-only` separately to generate metadata for templates that don't have it yet.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### No New Templates Found
+
+This is normal! It means:
+- All recent templates are already in your database
+- n8n.io hasn't published many new templates recently
+- Your database is up to date
+
+```bash
+📊 Update mode: 0 new templates to fetch (skipping 2598 existing)
+✅ All templates already have metadata
+```
+
+### API Rate Limiting
+
+If you hit rate limits:
+- The fetcher includes built-in delays (150ms between requests)
+- Wait a few minutes and try again
+- Use `--update` mode instead of full rebuild
+
+### Database Corruption
+
+If you suspect corruption:
+```bash
+# Full rebuild from scratch
+npm run fetch:templates
+
+# This will:
+# - Drop and recreate templates table
+# - Fetch all templates fresh
+# - Rebuild search indexes
+```
+
+## Database Schema
+
+Templates are stored with:
+- Basic info (id, name, description, author, views, created_at)
+- Node types used (JSON array)
+- Complete workflow (gzip compressed, base64 encoded)
+- AI-generated metadata (optional, requires OpenAI API key)
+- FTS5 search index for fast text search
+
+## Metadata Generation
+
+Generate AI metadata for templates:
+```bash
+# Requires OPENAI_API_KEY in .env
+export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
+
+# Generate for templates without metadata (recommended after incremental update)
+npm run fetch:templates -- --metadata-only
+
+# Generate during template fetch (slower, but automatic)
+npm run fetch:templates:update -- --generate-metadata
+```
+
+**Important**: Incremental updates (`--update`) do NOT generate metadata by default. After running `npm run fetch:templates:update`, you'll have new templates without metadata. Run `--metadata-only` separately to generate metadata for them.
+
+### Check Metadata Coverage
+
+```bash
+# See how many templates have metadata
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT
+  COUNT(*) as total,
+  SUM(CASE WHEN metadata_json IS NOT NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as with_metadata,
+  SUM(CASE WHEN metadata_json IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as without_metadata
+FROM templates"
+
+# See recent templates without metadata
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT id, name, created_at
+FROM templates
+WHERE metadata_json IS NULL
+ORDER BY created_at DESC
+LIMIT 10"
+```
+
+Metadata includes:
+- Categories
+- Complexity level (simple/medium/complex)
+- Use cases
+- Estimated setup time
+- Required services
+- Key features
+- Target audience
+
+### Metadata Generation Troubleshooting
+
+If metadata generation fails:
+
+1. **Check error file**: Errors are saved to `temp/batch/batch_*_error.jsonl`
+2. **Common issues**:
+   - `"Unsupported value: 'temperature'"` - Model doesn't support custom temperature
+   - `"Invalid request"` - Check OPENAI_API_KEY is valid
+   - Model availability issues
+3. **Model**: Uses `gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07` by default
+4. **Token limit**: 3000 tokens per request for detailed metadata
+
+The system will automatically:
+- Process error files and assign default metadata to failed templates
+- Save error details for debugging
+- Continue processing even if some templates fail
+
+**Example error handling**:
+```bash
+# If you see: "No output file available for batch job"
+# Check: temp/batch/batch_*_error.jsonl for error details
+# The system now automatically processes errors and generates default metadata
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+Optional configuration:
+```bash
+# OpenAI for metadata generation
+OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
+OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini  # Default model
+OPENAI_BATCH_SIZE=50      # Batch size for metadata generation
+
+# Metadata generation limits
+METADATA_LIMIT=100        # Max templates to process (0 = all)
+```
+
+## Statistics
+
+After update, check stats:
+```bash
+# Template count
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM templates"
+
+# Most recent template
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT MAX(created_at) FROM templates"
+
+# Templates by view count
+sqlite3 data/nodes.db "SELECT COUNT(*),
+  CASE
+    WHEN views < 50 THEN '<50'
+    WHEN views < 100 THEN '50-100'
+    WHEN views < 500 THEN '100-500'
+    ELSE '500+'
+  END as view_range
+  FROM templates GROUP BY view_range"
+```
+
+## Integration with n8n-mcp
+
+Templates are available through MCP tools:
+- `list_templates`: List all templates
+- `get_template`: Get specific template with workflow
+- `search_templates`: Search by keyword
+- `list_node_templates`: Templates using specific nodes
+- `get_templates_for_task`: Templates for common tasks
+- `search_templates_by_metadata`: Advanced filtering
+
+See `npm run test:templates` for usage examples.
+
+## Time Estimates
+
+Typical incremental update:
+- Loading existing IDs: 1-2 seconds
+- Fetching template list: 2-3 minutes
+- Filtering new templates: instant
+- Fetching details for 100 new templates: ~15 seconds (0.15s each)
+- Saving and indexing: 5-10 seconds
+- **Total: 3-5 minutes**
+
+Full rebuild:
+- Fetching 8000+ templates: 25-30 minutes
+- Saving and indexing: 5-10 minutes
+- **Total: 30-40 minutes**
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use incremental updates** for regular maintenance
+2. **Rebuild only when necessary** (corruption, major changes)
+3. **Generate metadata incrementally** to avoid OpenAI costs
+4. **Monitor template count** to verify updates working
+5. **Keep database backed up** before major operations
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After updating templates:
+1. Test template search: `npm run test:templates`
+2. Verify MCP tools work: Test in Claude Desktop
+3. Check statistics in database
+4. Commit changes if desired (database changes)

 ## 🤖 Claude Project Setup
 
 For the best results when using n8n-MCP with Claude Projects, use these enhanced system instructions:
 
-```markdown
+````markdown
 You are an expert in n8n automation software using n8n-MCP tools. Your role is to design, build, and validate n8n workflows with maximum accuracy and efficiency.
 
-## Core Workflow Process
+## Core Principles
 
-1. **ALWAYS start new conversation with**: `tools_documentation()` to understand best practices and available tools.
+### 1. Silent Execution
+CRITICAL: Execute tools without commentary. Only respond AFTER all tools complete.
 
-2. **Discovery Phase** - Find the right nodes:
-   - Think deeply about user request and the logic you are going to build to fulfill it. Ask follow-up questions to clarify the user's intent, if something is unclear. Then, proceed with the rest of your instructions.
-   - `search_nodes({query: 'keyword'})` - Search by functionality
+❌ BAD: "Let me search for Slack nodes... Great! Now let me get details..."
+✅ GOOD: [Execute search_nodes and get_node_essentials 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 (2,500+ available).
+
+### 4. Multi-Level Validation
+Use validate_node_minimal → validate_node_operation → 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_by_metadata({complexity: "simple"})` - Smart filtering
+   - `get_templates_for_task('webhook_processing')` - Curated by task
+   - `search_templates('slack notification')` - Text search
+   - `list_node_templates(['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
    - `list_nodes({category: 'trigger'})` - Browse by category
-   - `list_ai_tools()` - See AI-capable nodes (remember: ANY node can be an AI tool!)
+   - `list_ai_tools()` - AI-capable nodes
 
-3. **Configuration Phase** - Get node details efficiently:
-   - `get_node_essentials(nodeType)` - Start here! Only 10-20 essential properties
+4. **Configuration Phase** (parallel for multiple nodes)
+   - `get_node_essentials(nodeType, {includeExamples: true})` - 10-20 key properties
    - `search_node_properties(nodeType, 'auth')` - Find specific properties
-   - `get_node_for_task('send_email')` - Get pre-configured templates
-   - `get_node_documentation(nodeType)` - Human-readable docs when needed
-   - It is good common practice to show a visual representation of the workflow architecture to the user and asking for opinion, before moving forward. 
+   - `get_node_documentation(nodeType)` - Human-readable docs
+   - Show workflow architecture to user for approval before proceeding
 
-4. **Pre-Validation Phase** - Validate BEFORE building:
+5. **Validation Phase** (parallel for multiple nodes)
    - `validate_node_minimal(nodeType, config)` - Quick required fields check
-   - `validate_node_operation(nodeType, config, profile)` - Full operation-aware validation
-   - Fix any validation errors before proceeding
+   - `validate_node_operation(nodeType, config, 'runtime')` - Full validation with fixes
+   - Fix ALL errors before proceeding
 
-5. **Building Phase** - Create the workflow:
-   - Use validated configurations from step 4
+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 where appropriate
-   - Use expressions like $json, $node["NodeName"].json
-   - Build the workflow in an artifact for easy editing downstream (unless the user asked to create in n8n instance)
+   - Add error handling
+   - Use n8n expressions: $json, $node["NodeName"].json
+   - Build in artifact (unless deploying to n8n instance)
 
-6. **Workflow Validation Phase** - Validate complete workflow:
-   - `validate_workflow(workflow)` - Complete validation including connections
-   - `validate_workflow_connections(workflow)` - Check structure and AI tool connections
-   - `validate_workflow_expressions(workflow)` - Validate all n8n expressions
-   - Fix any issues found before deployment
+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
 
-7. **Deployment Phase** (if n8n API configured):
-   - `n8n_create_workflow(workflow)` - Deploy validated workflow
-   - `n8n_validate_workflow({id: 'workflow-id'})` - Post-deployment validation
-   - `n8n_update_partial_workflow()` - Make incremental updates using diffs
-   - `n8n_trigger_webhook_workflow()` - Test webhook workflows
+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
 
-## Key Insights
+## Critical Warnings
 
-- **USE CODE NODE ONLY WHEN IT IS NECESSARY** - always prefer to use standard nodes over code node. Use code node only when you are sure you need it.
-- **VALIDATE EARLY AND OFTEN** - Catch errors before they reach deployment
-- **USE DIFF UPDATES** - Use n8n_update_partial_workflow for 80-90% token savings
-- **ANY node can be an AI tool** - not just those with usableAsTool=true
-- **Pre-validate configurations** - Use validate_node_minimal before building
-- **Post-validate workflows** - Always validate complete workflows before deployment
-- **Incremental updates** - Use diff operations for existing workflows
-- **Test thoroughly** - Validate both locally and after deployment to n8n
+### ⚠️ 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_essentials` + `validate_node_minimal`
 
 ## Validation Strategy
 
-### Before Building:
-1. validate_node_minimal() - Check required fields
-2. validate_node_operation() - Full configuration validation
-3. Fix all errors before proceeding
+### Level 1 - Quick Check (before building)
+`validate_node_minimal(nodeType, config)` - Required fields only (<100ms)
 
-### After Building:
-1. validate_workflow() - Complete workflow validation
-2. validate_workflow_connections() - Structure validation
-3. validate_workflow_expressions() - Expression syntax check
+### Level 2 - Comprehensive (before building)
+`validate_node_operation(nodeType, config, 'runtime')` - Full validation with fixes
 
-### After Deployment:
-1. n8n_validate_workflow({id}) - Validate deployed workflow
-2. n8n_list_executions() - Monitor execution status
-3. n8n_update_partial_workflow() - Fix issues using diffs
+### Level 3 - Complete (after building)
+`validate_workflow(workflow)` - Connections, expressions, AI tools
 
-## Response Structure
+### Level 4 - Post-Deployment
+1. `n8n_validate_workflow({id})` - Validate deployed workflow
+2. `n8n_autofix_workflow({id})` - Auto-fix common errors
+3. `n8n_list_executions()` - Monitor execution status
 
-1. **Discovery**: Show available nodes and options
-2. **Pre-Validation**: Validate node configurations first
-3. **Configuration**: Show only validated, working configs
-4. **Building**: Construct workflow with validated components
-5. **Workflow Validation**: Full workflow validation results
-6. **Deployment**: Deploy only after all validations pass
-7. **Post-Validation**: Verify deployment succeeded
+## Response Format
+
+### Initial Creation

+```
+
+### 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: [{...}]})
+```
 
 ## Example Workflow
 
-### 1. Discovery & Configuration
-search_nodes({query: 'slack'})
-get_node_essentials('n8n-nodes-base.slack')
+### Template-First Approach
 
-### 2. Pre-Validation
-validate_node_minimal('n8n-nodes-base.slack', {resource:'message', operation:'send'})
+```
+// STEP 1: Template Discovery (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+search_templates_by_metadata({
+  requiredService: 'slack',
+  complexity: 'simple',
+  targetAudience: 'marketers'
+})
+get_templates_for_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})
+list_nodes({category: 'communication'})
+
+// STEP 2: Configuration (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+get_node_essentials('n8n-nodes-base.slack', {includeExamples: true})
+get_node_essentials('n8n-nodes-base.webhook', {includeExamples: true})
+
+// STEP 3: Validation (parallel execution)
+[Silent execution]
+validate_node_minimal('n8n-nodes-base.slack', config)
 validate_node_operation('n8n-nodes-base.slack', fullConfig, 'runtime')
 
-### 3. Build Workflow
-// Create workflow JSON with validated configs
+// STEP 4: Build
+// Construct workflow with validated configs
+// ⚠️ Set ALL parameters explicitly
 
-### 4. Workflow Validation
+// STEP 5: Validate
+[Silent execution]
 validate_workflow(workflowJson)
-validate_workflow_connections(workflowJson)
-validate_workflow_expressions(workflowJson)
 
-### 5. Deploy (if configured)
-n8n_create_workflow(validatedWorkflow)
-n8n_validate_workflow({id: createdWorkflowId})
+// Response after all tools complete:
+"Created workflow: Webhook → Slack
+Validation: ✅ Passed"
+```
 
-### 6. Update Using Diffs
+### Batch Updates
+
+```json
+// ONE call with multiple operations
 n8n_update_partial_workflow({
-  workflowId: id,
+  id: "wf-123",
   operations: [
-    {type: 'updateNode', nodeId: 'slack1', changes: {position: [100, 200]}}
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "slack-1", changes: {position: [100, 200]}},
+    {type: "updateNode", nodeId: "http-1", changes: {position: [300, 200]}},
+    {type: "cleanStaleConnections"}
   ]
 })
+```
 
 ## Important Rules
 
-- ALWAYS validate before building
-- ALWAYS validate after building
-- NEVER deploy unvalidated workflows
-- USE diff operations for updates (80-90% token savings)

-## [Unreleased]
+## [Unreleased] - Phase 0: Connection Operations Critical Fixes
+
+### Fixed
+- **🐛 CRITICAL: Fixed `addConnection` sourceIndex handling (Issue #272, discovered in hands-on testing)**
+  - Multi-output nodes (IF, Switch) now work correctly with sourceIndex parameter
+  - Changed from `||` to `??` operator to properly handle explicit 0 values
+  - Added defensive array validation before accessing indices
+  - Improves rating from 3/10 to 8/10 for multi-output node scenarios
+  - **Impact**: IF nodes, Switch nodes, and all conditional routing now reliable
+
+- **🐛 CRITICAL: Added runtime validation for `updateConnection` (Issue #272, #204)**
+  - Prevents server crashes when `updates` object is missing
+  - Provides helpful error message with:
+    - Clear explanation of what's wrong
+    - Correct format example
+    - Suggestion to use removeConnection + addConnection for rewiring
+  - Validates `updates` is an object, not string or other type
+  - **Impact**: No more cryptic "Cannot read properties of undefined" crashes
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Error Messages**: `updateConnection` errors now include actionable guidance
+  - Example format shown in error
+  - Alternative approaches suggested (removeConnection + addConnection)
+  - Clear explanation that updateConnection modifies properties, not targets
+
+### Testing
+- Added 8 comprehensive tests for Phase 0 fixes
+  - 2 tests for updateConnection validation (missing updates, invalid type)
+  - 5 tests for sourceIndex handling (IF nodes, parallel execution, Switch nodes, explicit 0)
+  - 1 test for complex multi-output routing scenarios
+  - All 126 existing tests still passing
+
+### Documentation
+- Updated tool documentation to clarify:
+  - `addConnection` now properly handles sourceIndex (Phase 0 fix noted)
+  - `updateConnection` REQUIRES 'updates' object (Phase 0 validation noted)
+  - Added pitfalls about updateConnection limitations
+  - Clarified that updateConnection modifies properties, NOT connection targets
+
+### Developer Experience
+- More defensive programming throughout connection operations
+- Better use of nullish coalescing (??) vs. logical OR (||)
+- Clear inline comments explaining expected behavior
+- Improved type safety with runtime guards
+
+### References
+- Comprehensive analysis: `docs/local/connection-operations-deep-dive-and-improvement-plan.md`
+- Based on hands-on testing with n8n-mcp-tester agent
+- Overall experience rating improved from 4.5/10 to estimated 6/10
+
+## [2.14.4] - 2025-09-30
+
+### Added
+- **Workflow Cleanup Operations**: Two new operations for `n8n_update_partial_workflow` to handle broken workflow recovery
+  - `cleanStaleConnections`: Automatically removes all connections referencing non-existent nodes
+    - Essential after node renames or deletions that leave dangling connection references
+    - Supports `dryRun: true` mode to preview what would be removed
+    - Removes both source and target stale connections
+  - `replaceConnections`: Replace entire connections object in a single operation
+    - Faster than crafting many individual connection operations
+    - Useful for bulk connection rewiring
+
+- **Graceful Error Handling for Connection Operations**: Enhanced `removeConnection` operation
+  - New `ignoreErrors` flag: When `true`, operation succeeds even if connection doesn't exist
+  - Perfect for cleanup scenarios where you're not sure if connections exist
+  - Maintains backwards compatibility (defaults to `false` for strict validation)
+
+- **Best-Effort Mode**: New `continueOnError` mode for `WorkflowDiffRequest`
+  - Apply valid operations even if some fail
+  - Returns detailed results with `applied` and `failed` operation indices
+  - Breaks atomic guarantees intentionally for bulk cleanup scenarios
+  - Maintains atomic mode as default for safety
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Tool Documentation**: Updated `n8n_update_partial_workflow` documentation
+  - Added examples for cleanup scenarios
+  - Documented new operation types and modes
+  - Added best practices for workflow recovery
+  - Clarified atomic vs. best-effort behavior
+
+- **Type System**: Extended workflow diff types
+  - Added `CleanStaleConnectionsOperation` interface
+  - Added `ReplaceConnectionsOperation` interface
+  - Extended `WorkflowDiffResult` with `applied`, `failed`, and `staleConnectionsRemoved` fields
+  - Updated type guards for new connection operations
+
+### Testing
+- Added comprehensive test suite for v2.14.4 features
+  - 15 new tests covering all new operations and modes
+  - Tests for cleanStaleConnections with various stale scenarios
+  - Tests for replaceConnections validation
+  - Tests for ignoreErrors flag behavior
+  - Tests for continueOnError mode with mixed success/failure
+  - Backwards compatibility verification tests
+
+### Impact
+- **Time Saved**: Reduces broken workflow fix time from 10-15 minutes to 30 seconds
+- **Token Efficiency**: `cleanStaleConnections` is 1 operation vs 10+ manual operations
+- **User Experience**: Dramatically improved workflow recovery capabilities
+- **Backwards Compatibility**: 100% - all additions are optional and default to existing behavior
+
+## [2.13.2] - 2025-01-24
+
+### Added
+- **Operation and Resource Validation with Intelligent Suggestions**: New similarity services for n8n node configuration validation
+  - `OperationSimilarityService`: Validates operations and suggests similar alternatives using Levenshtein distance and pattern matching
+  - `ResourceSimilarityService`: Validates resources with automatic plural/singular conversion and typo detection
+  - Provides "Did you mean...?" suggestions when invalid operations or resources are used
+  - Example: `operation: "listFiles"` suggests `"search"` for Google Drive nodes
+  - Example: `resource: "files"` suggests singular `"file"` with 95% confidence
+  - Confidence-based suggestions (minimum 30% threshold) with contextual fix messages
+  - Resource-aware operation filtering ensures suggestions are contextually appropriate

+
+## [2.13.1] - 2025-01-24
+
+### Changed
+- **Removed 5-operation limit from n8n_update_partial_workflow**: The workflow diff engine now supports unlimited operations per request
+  - Previously limited to 5 operations for "transactional integrity"
+  - Analysis revealed the limit was unnecessary - the clone-validate-apply pattern already ensures atomicity
+  - All operations are validated before any are applied, maintaining data integrity
+  - Enables complex workflow refactoring in single API calls
+  - Updated documentation and examples to demonstrate large batch operations (26+ operations)
+
+## [2.13.0] - 2025-01-24
+
+### Added
+- **Webhook Path Autofixer**: Automatically generates UUIDs for webhook nodes missing path configuration
+  - Generates unique UUID for both `path` parameter and `webhookId` field
+  - Conditionally updates typeVersion to 2.1 only when < 2.1 to ensure compatibility
+  - High confidence fix (95%) as UUID generation is deterministic

+
+- **Enhanced Node Type Suggestions**: Intelligent node type correction with similarity matching
+  - Multi-factor scoring system: name similarity, category match, package match, pattern match
+  - Handles deprecated package prefixes (n8n-nodes-base. → nodes-base.)
+  - Corrects capitalization mistakes (HttpRequest → httpRequest)
+  - Suggests correct packages (nodes-base.openai → nodes-langchain.openAi)
+  - Only auto-fixes suggestions with ≥90% confidence
+  - 5-minute cache for performance optimization
+
+- **n8n_autofix_workflow Tool**: New MCP tool for automatic workflow error correction

+    - Future-proof design that works with any n8n node
+
+## [2.12.1] - 2025-09-22
+
+### Fixed
+- **Error Output Validation**: Enhanced workflow validator to detect incorrect error output configurations
+  - Detects when multiple nodes are incorrectly placed in the same output array (main[0])
+  - Validates that error handlers are properly connected to main[1] (error output) instead of main[0]
+  - Cross-validates onError property ('continueErrorOutput') matches actual connection structure
+  - Provides clear, actionable error messages with JSON examples showing correct configuration
+  - Uses heuristic detection for error handler nodes (names containing "error", "fail", "catch", etc.)
+  - Added comprehensive test coverage with 16+ test cases
+
+### Improved
+- **Validation Messages**: Error messages now include detailed JSON examples showing both incorrect and correct configurations
+- **Pattern Detection**: Fixed `checkWorkflowPatterns` to check main[1] for error outputs instead of non-existent outputs.error

+  - Automatically expands related node types: `["email"]` finds Gmail, email send, and related templates
+  - `["slack"]` also finds `slackTrigger` templates
+  - Case-insensitive matching: `["Slack"]`, `["WEBHOOK"]`, `["HttpRequest"]` all work
+  - Backward compatible - existing exact formats continue working
+  - Reduces failed queries by approximately 50%
+  - Added `template-node-resolver.ts` utility for node type resolution

+  - `structure`: Returns nodes with positions and connections (moderate detail)
+  - `full`: Returns complete workflow JSON (default, maximum detail)
+  - Reduces token usage by 80-90% in minimal modes
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Template Database Compression**: Implemented gzip compression for workflow JSONs
+  - Workflow data compressed from ~75MB to 12.10MB (84% reduction)
+  - Database size reduced from 117MB to 48MB despite 5x more templates
+  - Transparent compression/decompression with base64 encoding
+  - No API changes - compression is handled internally
+- **Template Quality Filtering**: Automatic filtering of low-quality templates
+  - Templates with ≤10 views are excluded from the database
+  - Expanded coverage from 499 to 2,596 high-quality templates (5x increase)
+  - Filtered 4,505 raw templates down to 2,596 based on popularity
+  - Ensures AI agents work with proven, valuable workflows
+- **Enhanced Database Statistics**: Template metrics now included
+  - Shows total template count, average/min/max views
+  - Provides complete database overview including template coverage
+
+### Performance
+- **Database Optimization**: 59% size reduction while storing 5x more content
+  - Previous: ~40MB database with 499 templates
+  - Current: ~48MB database with 2,596 templates
+  - Without compression would be ~120MB+
+- **Token Efficiency**: 80-90% reduction in response size for minimal queries
+  - `list_templates`: ~10 tokens per template vs 100+ for full data
+  - `get_template` with `nodes_only`: Returns just essential node information
+  - Pagination prevents overwhelming responses for large result sets
+
+### Fixed
+- **Test Suite Compatibility**: Updated all tests for new template system
+  - Fixed parameter validation tests to expect new method signatures
+  - Updated integration tests to use templates with >10 views
+  - Removed redundant test files that were testing at wrong abstraction level
+  - All 1,700+ tests now passing

+# Flexible Instance Configuration
+
+## Overview
+
+The Flexible Instance Configuration feature enables n8n-mcp to serve multiple users with different n8n instances dynamically, without requiring separate deployments for each user. This feature is designed for scenarios where n8n-mcp is hosted centrally and needs to connect to different n8n instances based on runtime context.
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+1. **InstanceContext Interface** (`src/types/instance-context.ts`)
+   - Runtime configuration container for instance-specific settings
+   - Optional fields for backward compatibility
+   - Comprehensive validation with security checks
+
+2. **Dual-Mode API Client**
+   - **Singleton Mode**: Uses environment variables (backward compatible)
+   - **Instance Mode**: Uses runtime context for multi-instance support
+   - Automatic fallback between modes
+
+3. **LRU Cache with Security**
+   - SHA-256 hashed cache keys for security
+   - 30-minute TTL with automatic cleanup
+   - Maximum 100 concurrent instances
+   - Secure dispose callbacks without logging sensitive data
+
+4. **Session Management**
+   - HTTP server tracks session context
+   - Each session can have different instance configuration
+   - Automatic cleanup on session end
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+New environment variables for cache configuration:
+
+- `INSTANCE_CACHE_MAX` - Maximum number of cached instances (default: 100, min: 1, max: 10000)
+- `INSTANCE_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES` - Cache TTL in minutes (default: 30, min: 1, max: 1440/24 hours)
+
+Example:
+```bash
+# Increase cache size for high-volume deployments
+export INSTANCE_CACHE_MAX=500
+export INSTANCE_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES=60
+```
+
+### InstanceContext Structure
+
+```typescript
+interface InstanceContext {
+  n8nApiUrl?: string;        // n8n instance URL
+  n8nApiKey?: string;        // API key for authentication
+  n8nApiTimeout?: number;    // Request timeout in ms (default: 30000)
+  n8nApiMaxRetries?: number; // Max retry attempts (default: 3)
+  instanceId?: string;       // Unique instance identifier
+  sessionId?: string;        // Session identifier
+  metadata?: Record<string, any>; // Additional metadata
+}
+```
+
+### Validation Rules
+
+1. **URL Validation**:
+   - Must be valid HTTP/HTTPS URL
+   - No file://, javascript:, or other dangerous protocols
+   - Proper URL format with protocol and host
+
+2. **API Key Validation**:
+   - Non-empty string required when provided
+   - No placeholder values (e.g., "YOUR_API_KEY")
+   - Case-insensitive placeholder detection
+
+3. **Numeric Validation**:
+   - Timeout must be positive number (>0)
+   - Max retries must be non-negative (≥0)
+   - No Infinity or NaN values
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { getN8nApiClient } from './mcp/handlers-n8n-manager';
+import { InstanceContext } from './types/instance-context';
+
+// Create context for a specific instance
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: 'https://customer1.n8n.cloud',
+  n8nApiKey: 'customer1-api-key',
+  instanceId: 'customer1'
+};
+
+// Get client for this instance
+const client = getN8nApiClient(context);
+if (client) {
+  // Use client for API operations
+  const workflows = await client.getWorkflows();
+}
+```
+
+### HTTP Headers for Multi-Tenant Support
+
+When using the HTTP server mode, clients can pass instance-specific configuration via HTTP headers:
+
+```bash
+# Example curl request with instance headers
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-auth-token" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-N8n-Url: https://instance1.n8n.cloud" \
+  -H "X-N8n-Key: instance1-api-key" \
+  -H "X-Instance-Id: instance-1" \
+  -H "X-Session-Id: session-123" \
+  -d '{"method": "n8n_list_workflows", "params": {}, "id": 1}'
+```
+
+#### Supported Headers
+
+- **X-N8n-Url**: The n8n instance URL (e.g., `https://instance.n8n.cloud`)
+- **X-N8n-Key**: The API key for authentication with the n8n instance
+- **X-Instance-Id**: A unique identifier for the instance (optional, for tracking)
+- **X-Session-Id**: A session identifier (optional, for session tracking)
+
+#### Header Extraction Logic
+
+1. If either `X-N8n-Url` or `X-N8n-Key` header is present, an instance context is created
+2. All headers are extracted and passed to the MCP server
+3. The server uses the instance-specific configuration instead of environment variables
+4. If no headers are present, the server falls back to environment variables (backward compatible)
+
+#### Example: JavaScript Client
+
+```javascript
+const headers = {
+  'Authorization': 'Bearer your-auth-token',
+  'Content-Type': 'application/json',
+  'X-N8n-Url': 'https://customer1.n8n.cloud',
+  'X-N8n-Key': 'customer1-api-key',
+  'X-Instance-Id': 'customer-1',
+  'X-Session-Id': 'session-456'
+};
+
+const response = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/mcp', {
+  method: 'POST',
+  headers: headers,
+  body: JSON.stringify({
+    method: 'n8n_list_workflows',
+    params: {},
+    id: 1
+  })
+});
+
+const result = await response.json();
+```
+
+### HTTP Server Integration
+
+```typescript
+// In HTTP request handler
+app.post('/mcp', (req, res) => {
+  const context: InstanceContext = {
+    n8nApiUrl: req.headers['x-n8n-url'],
+    n8nApiKey: req.headers['x-n8n-key'],
+    sessionId: req.sessionID
+  };
+
+  // Context passed to handlers
+  const result = await handleRequest(req.body, context);
+  res.json(result);
+});
+```
+
+### Validation Example
+
+```typescript
+import { validateInstanceContext } from './types/instance-context';
+
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: 'https://api.n8n.cloud',
+  n8nApiKey: 'valid-key'
+};
+
+const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+if (!validation.valid) {
+  console.error('Validation errors:', validation.errors);
+} else {
+  // Context is valid, proceed
+  const client = getN8nApiClient(context);
+}
+```
+
+## Security Features
+
+### 1. Cache Key Hashing
+- All cache keys use SHA-256 hashing with memoization
+- Prevents sensitive data exposure in logs
+- Example: `sha256(url:key:instance)` → 64-char hex string
+- Memoization cache limited to 1000 entries
+
+### 2. Enhanced Input Validation
+- Field-specific error messages with detailed reasons
+- URL protocol restrictions (HTTP/HTTPS only)
+- API key placeholder detection (case-insensitive)
+- Numeric range validation with specific error messages
+- Example: "Invalid n8nApiUrl: ftp://example.com - URL must use HTTP or HTTPS protocol"
+
+### 3. Secure Logging
+- Only first 8 characters of cache keys logged
+- No sensitive data in debug logs
+- URL sanitization (domain only, no paths)
+- Configuration fallback logging for debugging
+
+### 4. Memory Management
+- Configurable LRU cache with automatic eviction
+- TTL-based expiration (configurable, default 30 minutes)
+- Dispose callbacks for cleanup
+- Maximum cache size limits with bounds checking
+
+### 5. Concurrency Protection
+- Mutex-based locking for cache operations
+- Prevents duplicate client creation
+- Simple lock checking with timeout
+- Thread-safe cache operations
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+### Cache Strategy
+- **Max Size**: Configurable via `INSTANCE_CACHE_MAX` (default: 100)
+- **TTL**: Configurable via `INSTANCE_CACHE_TTL_MINUTES` (default: 30)
+- **Update on Access**: Age refreshed on each use
+- **Eviction**: Least Recently Used (LRU) policy
+- **Memoization**: Hash creation uses memoization for frequently used keys
+
+### Cache Metrics
+The system tracks comprehensive metrics:
+- Cache hits and misses
+- Hit rate percentage
+- Eviction count
+- Current size vs maximum size
+- Operation timing
+
+Retrieve metrics using:
+```typescript
+import { getInstanceCacheStatistics } from './mcp/handlers-n8n-manager';
+console.log(getInstanceCacheStatistics());
+```
+
+### Benefits
+- **Performance**: ~12ms average response time
+- **Memory Efficient**: Minimal footprint per instance
+- **Thread Safe**: Mutex protection for concurrent operations
+- **Auto Cleanup**: Unused instances automatically evicted
+- **No Memory Leaks**: Proper disposal callbacks
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+The feature maintains 100% backward compatibility:
+
+1. **Environment Variables Still Work**:
+   - If no context provided, falls back to env vars
+   - Existing deployments continue working unchanged
+
+2. **Optional Parameters**:
+   - All context fields are optional
+   - Missing fields use defaults or env vars
+
+3. **API Unchanged**:
+   - Same handler signatures with optional context
+   - No breaking changes to existing code
+
+## Testing
+
+Comprehensive test coverage ensures reliability:
+
+```bash
+# Run all flexible instance tests
+npm test -- tests/unit/flexible-instance-security-advanced.test.ts
+npm test -- tests/unit/mcp/lru-cache-behavior.test.ts
+npm test -- tests/unit/types/instance-context-coverage.test.ts
+npm test -- tests/unit/mcp/handlers-n8n-manager-simple.test.ts
+```
+
+### Test Coverage Areas
+- Input validation edge cases
+- Cache behavior and eviction
+- Security (hashing, sanitization)
+- Session management
+- Memory leak prevention
+- Concurrent access patterns
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### For Existing Deployments
+No changes required - environment variables continue to work.
+
+### For Multi-Instance Support
+
+1. **Update HTTP Server** (if using HTTP mode):
+```typescript
+// Add context extraction from headers
+const context = extractInstanceContext(req);
+```
+
+2. **Pass Context to Handlers**:
+```typescript
+// Old way (still works)
+await handleListWorkflows(params);
+
+// New way (with instance context)
+await handleListWorkflows(params, context);
+```
+
+3. **Configure Clients** to send instance information:
+```typescript
+// Client sends instance info in headers
+headers: {
+  'X-N8n-Url': 'https://instance.n8n.cloud',
+  'X-N8n-Key': 'api-key',
+  'X-Instance-Id': 'customer-123'
+}
+```
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Metrics to Track
+- Cache hit/miss ratio
+- Instance count in cache
+- Average TTL utilization
+- Memory usage per instance
+- API client creation rate
+
+### Debug Logging
+Enable debug logs to monitor cache behavior:
+```bash
+LOG_LEVEL=debug npm start
+```
+
+## Limitations
+
+1. **Maximum Instances**: 100 concurrent instances (configurable)
+2. **TTL**: 30-minute cache lifetime (configurable)
+3. **Memory**: ~1MB per cached instance (estimated)
+4. **Validation**: Strict validation may reject edge cases
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+1. **Never Log Sensitive Data**: API keys are never logged
+2. **Hash All Identifiers**: Use SHA-256 for cache keys
+3. **Validate All Input**: Comprehensive validation before use
+4. **Limit Resources**: Cache size and TTL limits
+5. **Clean Up Properly**: Dispose callbacks for resource cleanup
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements for future versions:
+

+## 🔒 Security Features (v2.16.3+)
+
+### Rate Limiting
+
+Built-in rate limiting protects authentication endpoints from brute force attacks:
+
+**Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Defaults (15 minutes window, 20 attempts per IP)
+AUTH_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW=900000  # milliseconds
+AUTH_RATE_LIMIT_MAX=20
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Per-IP rate limiting with configurable window and max attempts
+- Standard rate limit headers (RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, RateLimit-Reset)
+- JSON-RPC formatted error responses
+- Automatic IP tracking behind reverse proxies (requires TRUST_PROXY=1)
+
+**Behavior:**
+- First 20 attempts: Return 401 Unauthorized for invalid credentials
+- Attempts 21+: Return 429 Too Many Requests with Retry-After header
+- Counter resets after 15 minutes (configurable)
+
+### SSRF Protection
+
+Prevents Server-Side Request Forgery attacks when using webhook triggers:
+
+**Three Security Modes:**
+
+1. **Strict Mode (default)** - Production deployments
+   ```bash
+   WEBHOOK_SECURITY_MODE=strict
+   ```
+   - ✅ Block localhost (127.0.0.1, ::1)
+   - ✅ Block private IPs (10.x, 192.168.x, 172.16-31.x)
+   - ✅ Block cloud metadata (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal)
+   - ✅ DNS rebinding prevention
+   - 🎯 **Use for**: Cloud deployments, production environments
+
+2. **Moderate Mode** - Local development with local n8n
+   ```bash
+   WEBHOOK_SECURITY_MODE=moderate
+   ```
+   - ✅ Allow localhost (for local n8n instances)
+   - ✅ Block private IPs
+   - ✅ Block cloud metadata
+   - ✅ DNS rebinding prevention
+   - 🎯 **Use for**: Development with n8n on localhost:5678
+
+3. **Permissive Mode** - Internal networks only
+   ```bash
+   WEBHOOK_SECURITY_MODE=permissive
+   ```
+   - ✅ Allow localhost and private IPs
+   - ✅ Block cloud metadata (always blocked)
+   - ✅ DNS rebinding prevention
+   - 🎯 **Use for**: Internal testing (NOT for production)
+
+**Important:** Cloud metadata endpoints are ALWAYS blocked in all modes for security.

+# Library Usage Guide - Multi-Tenant / Hosted Deployments
+
+This guide covers using n8n-mcp as a library dependency for building multi-tenant hosted services.
+
+## Overview
+
+n8n-mcp can be used as a Node.js library to build multi-tenant backends that provide MCP services to multiple users or instances. The package exports all necessary components for integration into your existing services.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install n8n-mcp
+```
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+### Library Mode vs CLI Mode
+
+- **CLI Mode** (default): Single-player usage via `npx n8n-mcp` or Docker
+- **Library Mode**: Multi-tenant usage by importing and using the `N8NMCPEngine` class
+
+### Instance Context
+
+The `InstanceContext` type allows you to pass per-request configuration to the MCP engine:
+
+```typescript
+interface InstanceContext {
+  // Instance-specific n8n API configuration
+  n8nApiUrl?: string;
+  n8nApiKey?: string;
+  n8nApiTimeout?: number;
+  n8nApiMaxRetries?: number;
+
+  // Instance identification
+  instanceId?: string;
+  sessionId?: string;
+
+  // Extensible metadata
+  metadata?: Record<string, any>;
+}
+```
+
+## Basic Example
+
+```typescript
+import express from 'express';
+import { N8NMCPEngine } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const app = express();
+const mcpEngine = new N8NMCPEngine({
+  sessionTimeout: 3600000, // 1 hour
+  logLevel: 'info'
+});
+
+// Handle MCP requests with per-user context
+app.post('/mcp', async (req, res) => {
+  const instanceContext = {
+    n8nApiUrl: req.user.n8nUrl,
+    n8nApiKey: req.user.n8nApiKey,
+    instanceId: req.user.id
+  };
+
+  await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, instanceContext);
+});
+
+app.listen(3000);
+```
+
+## Multi-Tenant Backend Example
+
+This example shows a complete multi-tenant implementation with user authentication and instance management:
+
+```typescript
+import express from 'express';
+import { N8NMCPEngine, InstanceContext, validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const app = express();
+const mcpEngine = new N8NMCPEngine({
+  sessionTimeout: 3600000, // 1 hour
+  logLevel: 'info'
+});
+
+// Start MCP engine
+await mcpEngine.start();
+
+// Authentication middleware
+const authenticate = async (req, res, next) => {
+  const token = req.headers.authorization?.replace('Bearer ', '');
+  if (!token) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Unauthorized' });
+  }
+
+  // Verify token and attach user to request
+  req.user = await getUserFromToken(token);
+  next();
+};
+
+// Get instance configuration from database
+const getInstanceConfig = async (instanceId: string, userId: string) => {
+  // Your database logic here
+  const instance = await db.instances.findOne({
+    where: { id: instanceId, userId }
+  });
+
+  if (!instance) {
+    throw new Error('Instance not found');
+  }
+
+  return {
+    n8nApiUrl: instance.n8nUrl,
+    n8nApiKey: await decryptApiKey(instance.encryptedApiKey),
+    instanceId: instance.id
+  };
+};
+
+// MCP endpoint with per-instance context
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  try {
+    // Get instance configuration
+    const instance = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId, req.user.id);
+
+    // Create instance context
+    const context: InstanceContext = {
+      n8nApiUrl: instance.n8nApiUrl,
+      n8nApiKey: instance.n8nApiKey,
+      instanceId: instance.instanceId,
+      metadata: {
+        userId: req.user.id,
+        userAgent: req.headers['user-agent'],
+        ip: req.ip
+      }
+    };
+
+    // Validate context before processing
+    const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+    if (!validation.valid) {
+      return res.status(400).json({
+        error: 'Invalid instance configuration',
+        details: validation.errors
+      });
+    }
+
+    // Process request with instance context
+    await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('MCP request error:', error);
+    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' });
+  }
+});
+
+// Health endpoint
+app.get('/health', async (req, res) => {
+  const health = await mcpEngine.healthCheck();
+  res.status(health.status === 'healthy' ? 200 : 503).json(health);
+});
+
+// Graceful shutdown
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await mcpEngine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+
+app.listen(3000);
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### N8NMCPEngine
+
+#### Constructor
+
+```typescript
+new N8NMCPEngine(options?: {
+  sessionTimeout?: number;  // Session TTL in ms (default: 1800000 = 30min)
+  logLevel?: 'error' | 'warn' | 'info' | 'debug';  // Default: 'info'
+})
+```
+
+#### Methods
+
+##### `async processRequest(req, res, context?)`
+
+Process a single MCP request with optional instance context.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `req`: Express request object
+- `res`: Express response object
+- `context` (optional): InstanceContext with per-instance configuration
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: 'https://instance1.n8n.cloud',
+  n8nApiKey: 'instance1-key',
+  instanceId: 'tenant-123'
+};
+
+await engine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+```
+
+##### `async healthCheck()`
+
+Get engine health status for monitoring.
+
+**Returns:** `EngineHealth`
+```typescript
+{
+  status: 'healthy' | 'unhealthy';
+  uptime: number;  // seconds
+  sessionActive: boolean;
+  memoryUsage: {
+    used: number;
+    total: number;
+    unit: string;
+  };
+  version: string;
+}
+```
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+app.get('/health', async (req, res) => {
+  const health = await engine.healthCheck();
+  res.status(health.status === 'healthy' ? 200 : 503).json(health);
+});
+```
+
+##### `getSessionInfo()`
+
+Get current session information for debugging.
+
+**Returns:**
+```typescript
+{
+  active: boolean;
+  sessionId?: string;
+  age?: number;  // milliseconds
+  sessions?: {
+    total: number;
+    active: number;
+    expired: number;
+    max: number;
+    sessionIds: string[];
+  };
+}
+```
+
+##### `async start()`
+
+Start the engine (for standalone mode). Not needed when using `processRequest()` directly.
+
+##### `async shutdown()`
+
+Graceful shutdown for service lifecycle management.
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await engine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+```
+
+### Types
+
+#### InstanceContext
+
+Configuration for a specific user instance:
+
+```typescript
+interface InstanceContext {
+  n8nApiUrl?: string;
+  n8nApiKey?: string;
+  n8nApiTimeout?: number;
+  n8nApiMaxRetries?: number;
+  instanceId?: string;
+  sessionId?: string;
+  metadata?: Record<string, any>;
+}
+```
+
+#### Validation Functions
+
+##### `validateInstanceContext(context: InstanceContext)`
+
+Validate and sanitize instance context.
+
+**Returns:**
+```typescript
+{
+  valid: boolean;
+  errors?: string[];
+}
+```
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+import { validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+if (!validation.valid) {
+  console.error('Invalid context:', validation.errors);
+}
+```
+
+##### `isInstanceContext(obj: any)`
+
+Type guard to check if an object is a valid InstanceContext.
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+import { isInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+if (isInstanceContext(req.body.context)) {
+  // TypeScript knows this is InstanceContext
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res, req.body.context);
+}
+```
+
+## Session Management
+
+### Session Strategies
+
+The MCP engine supports flexible session ID formats:
+
+- **UUIDv4**: Internal n8n-mcp format (default)
+- **Instance-prefixed**: `instance-{userId}-{hash}-{uuid}` for multi-tenant isolation
+- **Custom formats**: Any non-empty string for mcp-remote and other proxies
+
+Session validation happens via transport lookup, not format validation. This ensures compatibility with all MCP clients.
+
+### Multi-Tenant Configuration
+
+Set these environment variables for multi-tenant mode:
+
+```bash
+# Enable multi-tenant mode
+ENABLE_MULTI_TENANT=true
+
+# Session strategy: "instance" (default) or "shared"
+MULTI_TENANT_SESSION_STRATEGY=instance
+```
+
+**Session Strategies:**
+
+- **instance** (recommended): Each tenant gets isolated sessions
+  - Session ID: `instance-{instanceId}-{configHash}-{uuid}`
+  - Better isolation and security
+  - Easier debugging per tenant
+
+- **shared**: Multiple tenants share sessions with context switching
+  - More efficient for high tenant count
+  - Requires careful context management
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### API Key Management
+
+Always encrypt API keys server-side:
+
+```typescript
+import { createCipheriv, createDecipheriv } from 'crypto';
+
+// Encrypt before storing
+const encryptApiKey = (apiKey: string) => {
+  const cipher = createCipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+  return cipher.update(apiKey, 'utf8', 'hex') + cipher.final('hex');
+};
+
+// Decrypt before using
+const decryptApiKey = (encrypted: string) => {
+  const decipher = createDecipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+  return decipher.update(encrypted, 'hex', 'utf8') + decipher.final('utf8');
+};
+
+// Use decrypted key in context
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiKey: await decryptApiKey(instance.encryptedApiKey),
+  // ...
+};
+```
+
+### Input Validation
+
+Always validate instance context before processing:
+
+```typescript
+import { validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+if (!validation.valid) {
+  throw new Error(`Invalid context: ${validation.errors?.join(', ')}`);
+}
+```
+
+### Rate Limiting
+
+Implement rate limiting per tenant:
+
+```typescript
+import rateLimit from 'express-rate-limit';
+
+const limiter = rateLimit({
+  windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
+  max: 100, // limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs
+  keyGenerator: (req) => req.user?.id || req.ip
+});
+
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, limiter, async (req, res) => {
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+Always wrap MCP requests in try-catch blocks:
+
+```typescript
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  try {
+    const context = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId, req.user.id);
+    await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('MCP error:', error);
+
+    // Don't leak internal errors to clients
+    if (error.message.includes('not found')) {
+      return res.status(404).json({ error: 'Instance not found' });
+    }
+
+    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' });
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Health Checks
+
+Set up periodic health checks:
+
+```typescript
+setInterval(async () => {
+  const health = await mcpEngine.healthCheck();
+
+  if (health.status === 'unhealthy') {
+    console.error('MCP engine unhealthy:', health);
+    // Alert your monitoring system
+  }
+
+  // Log metrics
+  console.log('MCP engine metrics:', {
+    uptime: health.uptime,
+    memory: health.memoryUsage,
+    sessionActive: health.sessionActive
+  });
+}, 60000); // Every minute
+```
+
+### Session Monitoring
+
+Track active sessions:
+
+```typescript
+app.get('/admin/sessions', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  if (!req.user.isAdmin) {
+    return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Forbidden' });
+  }
+
+  const sessionInfo = mcpEngine.getSessionInfo();
+  res.json(sessionInfo);
+});
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Testing
+
+```typescript
+import { N8NMCPEngine, InstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+describe('MCP Engine', () => {
+  let engine: N8NMCPEngine;
+
+  beforeEach(() => {
+    engine = new N8NMCPEngine({ logLevel: 'error' });
+  });
+
+  afterEach(async () => {
+    await engine.shutdown();
+  });
+
+  it('should process request with context', async () => {
+    const context: InstanceContext = {
+      n8nApiUrl: 'https://test.n8n.io',
+      n8nApiKey: 'test-key',
+      instanceId: 'test-instance'
+    };
+
+    const mockReq = createMockRequest();
+    const mockRes = createMockResponse();
+
+    await engine.processRequest(mockReq, mockRes, context);
+
+    expect(mockRes.status).toBe(200);
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### Integration Testing
+
+```typescript
+import request from 'supertest';
+import { createApp } from './app';
+
+describe('Multi-tenant MCP API', () => {
+  let app;
+  let authToken;
+
+  beforeAll(async () => {
+    app = await createApp();
+    authToken = await getTestAuthToken();
+  });
+
+  it('should handle MCP request for instance', async () => {
+    const response = await request(app)
+      .post('/api/instances/test-instance/mcp')
+      .set('Authorization', `Bearer ${authToken}`)
+      .send({
+        jsonrpc: '2.0',
+        method: 'initialize',
+        params: {
+          protocolVersion: '2024-11-05',
+          capabilities: {}
+        },
+        id: 1
+      });
+
+    expect(response.status).toBe(200);
+    expect(response.body.result).toBeDefined();
+  });
+});

+For a complete implementation example, see:
+- [n8n-mcp-backend](https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp-backend) - Full hosted service implementation
+
+### Migration from Single-Player
+
+If you're migrating from single-player (CLI/Docker) to multi-tenant:
+
+1. **Keep backward compatibility** - Use environment fallback:
+```typescript
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: instanceUrl || process.env.N8N_API_URL,
+  n8nApiKey: instanceKey || process.env.N8N_API_KEY,
+  instanceId: instanceId || 'default'
+};
+```
+
+2. **Gradual rollout** - Start with a feature flag:
+```typescript
+const isMultiTenant = process.env.ENABLE_MULTI_TENANT === 'true';
+
+if (isMultiTenant) {
+  const context = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId);
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+} else {
+  // Legacy single-player mode
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res);
+}
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### Module Resolution Errors
+
+If you see `Cannot find module 'n8n-mcp'`:
+
+```bash
+# Clear node_modules and reinstall
+rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json
+npm install
+
+# Verify package has types field
+npm info n8n-mcp
+
+# Check TypeScript can resolve it
+npx tsc --noEmit
+```
+
+#### Session ID Validation Errors
+
+If you see `Invalid session ID format` errors:
+
+- Ensure you're using n8n-mcp v2.18.9 or later
+- Session IDs can be any non-empty string
+- No need to generate UUIDs - use your own format
+
+#### Memory Leaks
+
+If memory usage grows over time:
+
+```typescript
+// Ensure proper cleanup
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await engine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+
+// Monitor session count
+const sessionInfo = engine.getSessionInfo();
+console.log('Active sessions:', sessionInfo.sessions?.active);
+```

-If you're using the **Deploy to Railway** button, you'll need to modify some environment variables since Railway uses a different Docker image (`Dockerfile.railway`).
-
-### Required Environment Variable Changes
-
-When deploying with Railway for n8n integration, add these variables in your Railway dashboard:
-
-1. **Go to Railway dashboard** → Your service → **Variables tab**
-2. **Add the following variables**:
-
-```bash
-# Required for n8n integration mode
-N8N_MODE=true
-
-# Already set by Railway template, but verify:
-MCP_MODE=http                    # Required for HTTP mode
-MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=<your-token>      # Must match AUTH_TOKEN
-AUTH_TOKEN=<your-token>          # Same value as MCP_AUTH_TOKEN
-
-# Optional: For workflow management features
-N8N_API_URL=https://your-n8n-instance.com
-N8N_API_KEY=your-n8n-api-key
-```
-
-3. **Save changes** - Railway will automatically redeploy
-
-### Connecting n8n to Railway-deployed n8n-MCP
-
-In your n8n workflow, configure the MCP Client Tool with:
-
-```
-Server URL: https://your-app.up.railway.app/mcp
-Auth Token: [Your AUTH_TOKEN value]
-Transport: HTTP Streamable (SSE)

-# Issue #90: "propertyValues[itemName] is not iterable" Error - Research Findings
-
-## Executive Summary
-
-The error "propertyValues[itemName] is not iterable" occurs when AI agents create workflows with incorrect data structures for n8n nodes that use `fixedCollection` properties. This primarily affects Switch Node v2, If Node, and Filter Node. The error prevents workflows from loading in the n8n UI, resulting in empty canvases.
-
-## Root Cause Analysis
-
-### 1. Data Structure Mismatch
-
-The error occurs when n8n's validation engine expects an iterable array but encounters a non-iterable object. This happens with nodes using `fixedCollection` type properties.
-
-**Incorrect Structure (causes error):**
-```json
-{
-  "rules": {
-    "conditions": {
-      "values": [
-        {
-          "value1": "={{$json.status}}",
-          "operation": "equals", 
-          "value2": "active"
-        }
-      ]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Correct Structure:**
-```json
-{
-  "rules": {
-    "conditions": [
-      {
-        "value1": "={{$json.status}}",
-        "operation": "equals",
-        "value2": "active"
-      }
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Affected Nodes
-
-Based on the research and issue comments, the following nodes are affected:
-
-1. **Switch Node v2** (`n8n-nodes-base.switch` with typeVersion: 2)
-   - Uses `rules` parameter with `conditions` fixedCollection
-   - v3 doesn't have this issue due to restructured schema
-
-2. **If Node** (`n8n-nodes-base.if` with typeVersion: 1)
-   - Uses `conditions` parameter with nested conditions array
-   - Similar structure to Switch v2
-
-3. **Filter Node** (`n8n-nodes-base.filter`)
-   - Uses `conditions` parameter
-   - Same fixedCollection pattern
-
-### 3. Why AI Agents Create Incorrect Structures
-
-1. **Training Data Issues**: AI models may have been trained on outdated or incorrect n8n workflow examples
-2. **Nested Object Inference**: AI tends to create unnecessarily nested structures when it sees collection-type parameters
-3. **Legacy Format Confusion**: Mixing v2 and v3 Switch node formats
-4. **Schema Misinterpretation**: The term "fixedCollection" may lead AI to create object wrappers
-
-## Current Impact
-
-From issue #90 comments:
-- Multiple users experiencing the issue
-- Workflows fail to load completely (empty canvas)
-- Users resort to using Switch Node v3 or direct API calls
-- The issue appears in "most MCPs" according to user feedback
-
-## Recommended Actions
-
-### 1. Immediate Validation Enhancement
-
-Add specific validation for fixedCollection properties in the workflow validator:
-
-```typescript
-// In workflow-validator.ts or enhanced-config-validator.ts
-function validateFixedCollectionParameters(node, result) {
-  const problematicNodes = {
-    'n8n-nodes-base.switch': { version: 2, fields: ['rules'] },
-    'n8n-nodes-base.if': { version: 1, fields: ['conditions'] },
-    'n8n-nodes-base.filter': { version: 1, fields: ['conditions'] }
-  };
-  
-  const nodeConfig = problematicNodes[node.type];
-  if (nodeConfig && node.typeVersion === nodeConfig.version) {
-    // Validate structure
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Enhanced MCP Tool Validation
-
-Update the validation tools to detect and prevent this specific error pattern:
-
-1. **In `validate_node_operation` tool**: Add checks for fixedCollection structures
-2. **In `validate_workflow` tool**: Include specific validation for Switch/If nodes
-3. **In `n8n_create_workflow` tool**: Pre-validate parameters before submission
-
-### 3. AI-Friendly Examples
-
-Update workflow examples to show correct structures:
-
-```typescript
-// In workflow-examples.ts
-export const SWITCH_NODE_EXAMPLE = {
-  name: "Switch",
-  type: "n8n-nodes-base.switch", 
-  typeVersion: 3, // Prefer v3 over v2
-  parameters: {
-    // Correct v3 structure
-  }
-};
-```
-
-### 4. Migration Strategy
-
-For existing workflows with Switch v2:
-1. Detect Switch v2 nodes in validation
-2. Suggest migration to v3
-3. Provide automatic conversion utility
-
-### 5. Documentation Updates
-
-1. Add warnings about fixedCollection structures in tool documentation
-2. Include specific examples of correct vs incorrect structures
-3. Document the Switch v2 to v3 migration path
-
-## Proposed Implementation Priority
-
-1. **High Priority**: Add validation to prevent creation of invalid structures
-2. **High Priority**: Update existing validation tools to catch this error
-3. **Medium Priority**: Add auto-fix capabilities to correct structures
-4. **Medium Priority**: Update examples and documentation
-5. **Low Priority**: Create migration utilities for v2 to v3
-
-## Testing Strategy
-
-1. Create test cases for each affected node type
-2. Test both correct and incorrect structures
-3. Verify validation catches all variants of the error
-4. Test auto-fix suggestions work correctly
-
-## Success Metrics
-
-- Zero instances of "propertyValues[itemName] is not iterable" in newly created workflows
-- Clear error messages that guide users to correct structures
-- Successful validation of all Switch/If node configurations before workflow creation
-
-## Next Steps
-
-1. Implement validation enhancements in the workflow validator
-2. Update MCP tools to include these validations
-3. Add comprehensive tests
-4. Update documentation with clear examples
-5. Consider adding a migration tool for existing workflows

+# Template Mining Analysis - Alternative to P0-R3
+
+**Date**: 2025-10-02
+**Context**: Analyzing whether to fix `get_node_for_task` (28% failure rate) or replace it with template-based configuration extraction
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+**RECOMMENDATION**: Replace `get_node_for_task` with template-based configuration extraction. The template database contains 2,646 real-world workflows with rich node configurations that far exceed the 31 hardcoded task templates.
+
+## Key Findings
+
+### 1. Template Database Coverage
+
+- **Total Templates**: 2,646 production workflows from n8n.io
+- **Unique Node Types**: 543 (covers 103% of our 525 core nodes)
+- **Metadata Coverage**: 100% (AI-generated structured metadata)
+
+### 2. Node Type Coverage in Templates
+
+Top node types by template usage:
+```
+3,820 templates: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest      (144% of total templates!)
+3,678 templates: n8n-nodes-base.set
+2,445 templates: n8n-nodes-base.code
+1,700 templates: n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets
+1,471 templates: @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent
+1,269 templates: @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi
+  792 templates: n8n-nodes-base.telegram
+  702 templates: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequestTool
+  596 templates: n8n-nodes-base.gmail
+  466 templates: n8n-nodes-base.webhook
+```
+
+**Comparison**:
+- Hardcoded task templates: 31 tasks covering 5.9% of nodes
+- Real templates: 2,646 templates with 2-3k examples for common nodes
+
+### 3. Database Structure
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE templates (
+  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+  workflow_id INTEGER UNIQUE NOT NULL,
+  name TEXT NOT NULL,
+  description TEXT,
+  -- Node information
+  nodes_used TEXT,              -- JSON array: ["n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest", ...]
+  workflow_json_compressed TEXT, -- Base64 encoded gzip of full workflow
+  -- Metadata (100% coverage)
+  metadata_json TEXT,           -- AI-generated structured metadata
+  -- Stats
+  views INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+  created_at DATETIME,
+  -- ...
+);
+```
+
+### 4. Real Configuration Examples
+
+#### HTTP Request Node Configurations
+
+**Simple URL fetch**:
+```json
+{
+  "url": "https://api.example.com/data",
+  "options": {}
+}
+```
+
+**With authentication**:
+```json
+{
+  "url": "=https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{{ $json.data.id }}/result",
+  "options": {},
+  "authentication": "genericCredentialType",
+  "genericAuthType": "httpHeaderAuth"
+}
+```
+
+**Complex expressions**:
+```json
+{
+  "url": "=https://image.pollinations.ai/prompt/{{$('Social Media Content Factory').item.json.output.description.replaceAll(' ','-').replaceAll(',','').replaceAll('.','') }}",
+  "options": {}
+}
+```
+
+#### Webhook Node Configurations
+
+**Basic webhook**:
+```json
+{
+  "path": "ytube",
+  "options": {},
+  "httpMethod": "POST",
+  "responseMode": "responseNode"
+}
+```
+
+**With binary data**:
+```json
+{
+  "path": "your-endpoint",
+  "options": {
+    "binaryPropertyName": "data"
+  },
+  "httpMethod": "POST"
+}
+```
+
+### 5. AI-Generated Metadata
+
+Each template has structured metadata including:
+
+```json
+{
+  "categories": ["automation", "integration", "data processing"],
+  "complexity": "medium",
+  "use_cases": [
+    "Extract transaction data from Gmail",
+    "Automate bookkeeping",
+    "Expense tracking"
+  ],
+  "estimated_setup_minutes": 30,
+  "required_services": ["Gmail", "Google Sheets", "Google Gemini"],
+  "key_features": [
+    "Fetch emails by label",
+    "Extract transaction data",
+    "Use LLM for structured output"
+  ],
+  "target_audience": ["Accountants", "Small business owners"]
+}
+```
+
+## Comparison: Task Templates vs Real Templates
+
+### Current Approach (get_node_for_task)
+
+**Pros**:
+- Curated configurations with best practices
+- Predictable, stable responses
+- Fast lookup (no decompression needed)
+
+**Cons**:
+- Only 31 tasks (5.9% node coverage)
+- 28% failure rate (users can't find what they need)
+- Requires manual maintenance
+- Static configurations without real-world context
+- Usage ratio 22.5:1 (search_nodes is preferred)
+
+### Template-Based Approach
+
+**Pros**:
+- 2,646 real workflows with 2-3k examples for common nodes
+- 100% metadata coverage for semantic matching
+- Real-world patterns and best practices
+- Covers 543 node types (103% coverage)
+- Self-updating (templates fetched from n8n.io)
+- Rich context (use cases, complexity, setup time)
+
+**Cons**:
+- Requires decompression for full workflow access
+- May contain template-specific context (but can be filtered)
+- Need ranking/filtering logic for best matches
+
+## Proposed Implementation Strategy
+
+### Phase 1: Extract Node Configurations from Templates
+
+Create a new service: `TemplateConfigExtractor`
+
+```typescript
+interface ExtractedNodeConfig {
+  nodeType: string;
+  configuration: Record<string, any>;
+  source: {
+    templateId: number;
+    templateName: string;
+    templateViews: number;
+    useCases: string[];
+    complexity: 'simple' | 'medium' | 'complex';
+  };
+  patterns: {
+    hasAuthentication: boolean;
+    hasExpressions: boolean;
+    hasOptionalFields: boolean;
+  };
+}
+
+class TemplateConfigExtractor {
+  async extractConfigsForNode(
+    nodeType: string,
+    options?: {
+      complexity?: 'simple' | 'medium' | 'complex';
+      requiresAuth?: boolean;
+      limit?: number;
+    }
+  ): Promise<ExtractedNodeConfig[]> {
+    // 1. Query templates containing nodeType
+    // 2. Decompress workflow_json_compressed
+    // 3. Extract node configurations
+    // 4. Rank by popularity + complexity match
+    // 5. Return top N configurations
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Phase 2: Integrate with Existing Tools
+
+**Option A**: Enhance `get_node_essentials`
+- Add `includeExamples: boolean` parameter
+- Return 2-3 real configurations from templates
+- Preserve existing compact format
+
+**Option B**: Enhance `get_node_info`
+- Add `examples` section with template-sourced configs
+- Include source attribution (template name, views)
+
+**Option C**: New tool `get_node_examples`
+- Dedicated tool for retrieving configuration examples
+- Query by node type, complexity, use case
+- Returns ranked list of real configurations
+
+### Phase 3: Deprecate get_node_for_task
+
+- Mark as deprecated in tool documentation
+- Redirect to enhanced tools
+- Remove after 2-3 version cycles
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Decompression Cost
+
+- Average compressed size: 6-12 KB
+- Decompression time: ~5-10ms per template
+- Caching strategy needed for frequently accessed templates
+
+### Query Strategy
+
+```sql
+-- Fast: Get templates for a node type (no decompression)
+SELECT id, name, views, metadata_json
+FROM templates
+WHERE nodes_used LIKE '%n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest%'
+ORDER BY views DESC
+LIMIT 10;
+
+-- Then decompress only top matches
+```
+
+### Caching
+
+- Cache decompressed workflows for popular templates (top 100)
+- TTL: 1 hour
+- Estimated memory: 100 * 50KB = 5MB
+
+## Impact on P0-R3
+
+**Original P0-R3 Plan**: Expand task library from 31 to 100+ tasks using fuzzy matching
+
+**New Approach**: Mine 2,646 templates for real configurations
+
+**Impact Assessment**:
+
+| Metric | Original Plan | Template Mining |
+|--------|--------------|-----------------|
+| Configuration examples | 100 (estimated) | 2,646+ actual |
+| Node coverage | ~20% | 103% |
+| Maintenance | High (manual) | Low (auto-fetch) |
+| Accuracy | Curated | Production-tested |
+| Context richness | Limited | Rich metadata |
+| Development time | 2-3 weeks | 1 week |
+
+**Recommendation**: PIVOT to template mining approach for P0-R3
+
+## Implementation Estimate
+
+### Week 1: Core Infrastructure
+- Day 1-2: Create `TemplateConfigExtractor` service
+- Day 3: Implement caching layer
+- Day 4-5: Testing and optimization
+
+### Week 2: Integration
+- Day 1-2: Enhance `get_node_essentials` with examples
+- Day 3: Update tool documentation
+- Day 4-5: Integration testing
+
+**Total**: 2 weeks vs 3 weeks for original plan
+
+## Validation Tests
+
+```typescript
+// Test: Extract HTTP Request configs
+const configs = await extractor.extractConfigsForNode(
+  'n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest',
+  { complexity: 'simple', limit: 5 }
+);
+
+// Expected: 5 configs from top templates
+// - Simple URL fetch
+// - With authentication
+// - With custom headers
+// - With expressions
+// - With error handling
+
+// Test: Extract webhook configs
+const webhookConfigs = await extractor.extractConfigsForNode(
+  'n8n-nodes-base.webhook',
+  { limit: 3 }
+);
+
+// Expected: 3 configs showing different patterns
+// - Basic POST webhook
+// - With response node
+// - With binary data handling
+```
+
+## Risks and Mitigation
+
+### Risk 1: Template Quality Varies
+- **Mitigation**: Filter by views (popularity) and metadata complexity rating
+- Only use templates with >1000 views for examples
+
+### Risk 2: Decompression Performance
+- **Mitigation**: Cache decompressed popular templates
+- Implement lazy loading (decompress on demand)
+
+### Risk 3: Template-Specific Context
+- **Mitigation**: Extract only node configuration, strip workflow-specific context
+- Provide source attribution for context
+
+### Risk 4: Breaking Changes in Template Structure
+- **Mitigation**: Robust error handling in decompression
+- Fallback to cached configs if template fetch fails
+
+## Success Metrics
+
+**Before** (get_node_for_task):
+- 392 calls, 72% success rate
+- 28% failure rate
+- 31 task templates
+- 5.9% node coverage
+
+**Target** (template-based):
+- 90%+ success rate for configuration discovery
+- 100%+ node coverage
+- 2,646+ real-world examples
+- Self-updating from n8n.io
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. ✅ Complete template database analysis
+2. ⏳ Create `TemplateConfigExtractor` service
+3. ⏳ Implement caching layer
+4. ⏳ Enhance `get_node_essentials` with examples
+5. ⏳ Update P0 implementation plan
+6. ⏳ Begin implementation
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The template database provides a vastly superior alternative to hardcoded task templates:
+
+- **2,646 templates** vs 31 tasks (85x more examples)
+- **103% node coverage** vs 5.9% coverage (17x improvement)
+- **Real-world configurations** vs synthetic examples
+- **Self-updating** vs manual maintenance
+- **Rich metadata** for semantic matching
+
+**Recommendation**: Pivot P0-R3 from "expand task library" to "mine template configurations"

+
+**Total New Code:** ~1,520 lines of production-ready TypeScript
+
+## Next Steps (Phase 2)
+
+Phase 2 will implement the first actual integration tests:
+- Create workflow creation tests (10+ scenarios)
+- Test P0 bug fix (SHORT vs FULL node types)
+- Test workflow retrieval
+- Test workflow deletion
+
+**Branch:** `feat/integration-tests-workflow-creation`
+
+## Prerequisites for Running Tests
+
+Before running integration tests, you need to:
+
+1. **Set up n8n instance:**
+   - Local: `npx n8n start`
+   - Or use cloud/self-hosted n8n
+
+2. **Configure credentials in `.env`:**
+   ```bash
+   N8N_API_URL=http://localhost:5678
+   N8N_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
+   ```
+
+3. **Create 4 webhook workflows manually:**
+   - One for each HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
+   - Activate each workflow in n8n UI
+   - Set workflow IDs in `.env`:
+     ```bash
+     N8N_TEST_WEBHOOK_GET_ID=<workflow-id>
+     N8N_TEST_WEBHOOK_POST_ID=<workflow-id>
+     N8N_TEST_WEBHOOK_PUT_ID=<workflow-id>
+     N8N_TEST_WEBHOOK_DELETE_ID=<workflow-id>
+     ```
+
+See `docs/local/integration-testing-plan.md` for detailed setup instructions.
+
+## Success Metrics
+
+Phase 1 Success Criteria - ALL MET:
+- ✅ All utilities implemented and tested
+- ✅ TypeScript compiles without errors
+- ✅ Code follows project conventions
+- ✅ Comprehensive documentation
+- ✅ Environment configuration complete
+- ✅ Cleanup infrastructure in place
+- ✅ Ready for Phase 2 test implementation
+
+## Lessons Learned
+
+1. **N8nApiClient Constructor:** Uses config object, not separate parameters
+2. **Cursor Handling:** n8n API returns `null` for no more pages, need to convert to `undefined`
+3. **Workflow ID Validation:** Some workflows might have undefined IDs, need null checks
+4. **Connection Types:** Error connections need explicit typing to avoid TypeScript errors
+5. **Webhook Activation:** Cannot be done via API, must be manual - hence pre-activated workflow requirement
+
+## Time Invested
+
+Phase 1 actual time: ~2 hours (estimated 2-3 days in plan)
+- Faster than expected due to clear architecture and reusable patterns

-## search_nodes
-
-**Brief Description**: Search for n8n nodes by keywords in names and descriptions.
-
-### Parameters
-- `query` (string, required): Search term - single word recommended for best results
-- `limit` (number, optional): Maximum results to return (default: 20)
-
-### Return Format
-```json
-{
-  "nodes": [
-    {
-      "nodeType": "nodes-base.slack",
-      "displayName": "Slack",
-      "description": "Send messages to Slack channels"
-    }
-  ],
-  "totalFound": 5
-}
-```
-
-### Common Use Cases
-1. **Finding integration nodes**: `search_nodes("slack")` to find Slack integration
-2. **Finding HTTP nodes**: `search_nodes("http")` for HTTP/webhook nodes
-3. **Finding database nodes**: `search_nodes("postgres")` for PostgreSQL nodes
-
-### Examples
-```json
-// Search for Slack-related nodes
-{
-  "query": "slack",
-  "limit": 10
-}
-
-// Search for webhook nodes
-{
-  "query": "webhook",
-  "limit": 20
-}
-```
-
-### Performance Notes
-- Fast operation (cached results)
-- Single-word queries are more precise
-- Returns results with OR logic (any word matches)
-
-### Best Practices
-- Use single words for precise results: "slack" not "send slack message"
-- Try shorter terms if no results: "sheet" instead of "spreadsheet"
-- Search is case-insensitive
-- Common searches: "http", "webhook", "email", "database", "slack"
-
-### Common Pitfalls
-- Multi-word searches return too many results (OR logic)
-- Searching for exact phrases doesn't work
-- Node types aren't searchable here (use exact type with get_node_info)
-
-### Related Tools
-- `list_nodes` - Browse nodes by category
-- `get_node_essentials` - Get node configuration after finding it
-- `list_ai_tools` - Find AI-capable nodes specifically
-
----
-
-## get_node_essentials
-
-**Brief Description**: Get only the 10-20 most important properties for a node with working examples.
-
-### Parameters
-- `nodeType` (string, required): Full node type with prefix (e.g., "nodes-base.httpRequest")
-
-### Return Format
-```json
-{
-  "nodeType": "nodes-base.httpRequest",
-  "displayName": "HTTP Request",
-  "essentialProperties": [
-    {
-      "name": "method",
-      "type": "options",
-      "default": "GET",
-      "options": ["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE"],
-      "required": true
-    },
-    {
-      "name": "url",
-      "type": "string",
-      "required": true,
-      "placeholder": "https://api.example.com/endpoint"
-    }
-  ],
-  "examples": [
-    {
-      "name": "Simple GET Request",
-      "configuration": {
-        "method": "GET",
-        "url": "https://api.example.com/users"
-      }
-    }
-  ],
-  "tips": [
-    "Use expressions like {{$json.url}} to make URLs dynamic",
-    "Enable 'Split Into Items' for array responses"
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-### Common Use Cases
-1. **Quick node configuration**: Get just what you need without parsing 100KB+ of data
-2. **Learning node basics**: Understand essential properties with examples
-3. **Building workflows efficiently**: 95% smaller responses than get_node_info
-
-### Examples
-```json
-// Get essentials for HTTP Request node
-{
-  "nodeType": "nodes-base.httpRequest"
-}
-
-// Get essentials for Slack node
-{
-  "nodeType": "nodes-base.slack"
-}
-
-// Get essentials for OpenAI node
-{
-  "nodeType": "nodes-langchain.openAi"
-}
-```
-
-### Performance Notes
-- Very fast (<5KB responses vs 100KB+ for full info)
-- Curated for 20+ common nodes
-- Automatic fallback for unconfigured nodes
-
-### Best Practices
-- Always use this before get_node_info
-- Node type must include prefix: "nodes-base.slack" not "slack"
-- Check examples section for working configurations
-- Use tips section for common patterns
-
-### Common Pitfalls
-- Forgetting the prefix in node type
-- Using wrong package name (n8n-nodes-base vs @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain)
-- Case sensitivity in node types
-
-### Related Tools
-- `get_node_info` - Full schema when essentials aren't enough
-- `search_node_properties` - Find specific properties
-- `get_node_for_task` - Pre-configured for common tasks

-- `developmentStyle` (string, optional): Filter by implementation style
-- `isAITool` (boolean, optional): Filter for AI-capable nodes
-- `limit` (number, optional): Maximum results (default: 50, max: 500)
-
-### Return Format
-```json
-{
-  "nodes": [
-    {
-      "nodeType": "nodes-base.webhook",
-      "displayName": "Webhook",
-      "description": "Receive HTTP requests",
-      "categories": ["trigger"],
-      "version": 2
-    }
-  ],
-  "total": 104,
-  "hasMore": false
-}
-```
-
-### Common Use Cases
-1. **Browse all triggers**: `list_nodes({category: "trigger", limit: 200})`
-2. **List all nodes**: `list_nodes({limit: 500})`
-3. **Find AI nodes**: `list_nodes({isAITool: true})`
-4. **Browse core nodes**: `list_nodes({package: "n8n-nodes-base"})`
-
-### Examples
-```json
-// List all trigger nodes
-{
-  "category": "trigger",
-  "limit": 200
-}
-
-// List all AI-capable nodes
-{
-  "isAITool": true,
-  "limit": 100
-}
-
-// List nodes from core package
-{
-  "package": "n8n-nodes-base",
-  "limit": 200
-}
-```
-
-### Performance Notes
-- Fast operation (cached results)
-- Default limit of 50 may miss nodes - use 200+
-- Returns metadata only, not full schemas
-
-### Best Practices
-- Always set limit to 200+ for complete results
-- Use exact package names: "n8n-nodes-base" not "@n8n/n8n-nodes-base"
-- Categories are singular: "trigger" not "triggers"
-- Common categories: trigger (104), transform, output, input
-
-### Common Pitfalls
-- Default limit (50) misses many nodes
-- Using wrong package name format
-- Multiple filters may return empty results
-
-### Related Tools
-- `search_nodes` - Search by keywords
-- `list_ai_tools` - Specifically for AI nodes

-
-### Performance Notes
-- 80-90% token savings vs full updates
-- Maximum 5 operations per request
-- Two-pass processing handles dependencies
-- Transactional: all or nothing
-
-### Best Practices
-- Use validateOnly: true to test first
-- Keep operations under 5 for reliability
-- Operations can be in any order (v2.7.0+)
-- Use node names, not IDs in operations
-- For updateNode, use dot notation for nested paths
-
-### Common Pitfalls
-- Exceeding 5 operations limit
-- Using node IDs instead of names
-- Forgetting required node properties in addNode
-- Not testing with validateOnly first
-
-### Related Tools
-- `n8n_update_full_workflow` - Complete workflow replacement
-- `n8n_get_workflow` - Fetch current workflow state
-- `validate_workflow` - Validate changes before applying

-## Quick Reference
-
-### Workflow Building Process
-1. **Discovery**: `search_nodes` → `list_nodes`
-2. **Configuration**: `get_node_essentials` → `get_node_for_task`
-3. **Validation**: `validate_node_minimal` → `validate_node_operation`
-4. **Creation**: `validate_workflow` → `n8n_create_workflow`
-5. **Updates**: `n8n_update_partial_workflow`
-
-### Performance Tips
-- Use `get_node_essentials` instead of `get_node_info` (95% smaller)
-- Set high limits on `list_nodes` (200+)
-- Use single words in `search_nodes`
-- Validate incrementally while building
-
-### 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
-
-### Error Prevention
-- Always include node type prefixes: "nodes-base.slack"
-- Use node names (not IDs) in connections
-- Include typeVersion in all nodes
-- Test with validateOnly before applying changes
-- Check userMustProvide sections in templates

-# n8n MCP Client Tool Integration - Implementation Plan (Simplified)
-
-## Overview
-
-This document provides a **simplified** implementation plan for making n8n-mcp compatible with n8n's MCP Client Tool (v1.1). Based on expert review, we're taking a minimal approach that extends the existing single-session server rather than creating new architecture.
-
-## Key Design Principles
-
-1. **Minimal Changes**: Extend existing single-session server with n8n compatibility mode
-2. **No Overengineering**: No complex session management or multi-session architecture
-3. **Docker-Native**: Separate Docker image for n8n deployment
-4. **Remote Deployment**: Designed to run alongside n8n in production
-5. **Backward Compatible**: Existing functionality remains unchanged
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Docker and Docker Compose
-- n8n version 1.104.2 or higher (with MCP Client Tool v1.1)
-- Basic understanding of Docker networking
-
-## Implementation Approach
-
-Instead of creating new multi-session architecture, we'll extend the existing single-session server with an n8n compatibility mode. This approach was recommended by all three expert reviewers as simpler and more maintainable.
-
-## Architecture Changes
-
-```
-src/
-├── http-server-single-session.ts  # MODIFY: Add n8n mode flag
-└── mcp/
-    └── server.ts                  # NO CHANGES NEEDED
-
-Docker/
-├── Dockerfile.n8n                 # NEW: n8n-specific image
-├── docker-compose.n8n.yml         # NEW: Simplified stack
-└── .github/workflows/
-    └── docker-build-n8n.yml       # NEW: Build workflow
-```
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-### Step 1: Modify Existing Single-Session Server
-
-#### 1.1 Update `src/http-server-single-session.ts`
-
-Add n8n compatibility mode to the existing server with minimal changes:
-
-```typescript
-// Add these constants at the top (after imports)
-const PROTOCOL_VERSION = "2024-11-05";
-const N8N_MODE = process.env.N8N_MODE === 'true';
-
-// In the constructor or start method, add logging
-if (N8N_MODE) {
-  logger.info('Running in n8n compatibility mode');
-}
-
-// In setupRoutes method, add the protocol version endpoint
-if (N8N_MODE) {
-  app.get('/mcp', (req, res) => {
-    res.json({
-      protocolVersion: PROTOCOL_VERSION,
-      serverInfo: {
-        name: "n8n-mcp",
-        version: PROJECT_VERSION,
-        capabilities: {
-          tools: true,
-          resources: false,
-          prompts: false,
-        },
-      },
-    });
-  });
-}
-
-// In handleMCPRequest method, add session header
-if (N8N_MODE && this.session) {
-  res.setHeader('Mcp-Session-Id', this.session.sessionId);
-}
-
-// Update error handling to use JSON-RPC format
-catch (error) {
-  logger.error('MCP request error:', error);
-  
-  if (N8N_MODE) {
-    res.status(500).json({
-      jsonrpc: '2.0',
-      error: {
-        code: -32603,
-        message: 'Internal error',
-        data: error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error',
-      },
-      id: null,
-    });
-  } else {
-    // Keep existing error handling for backward compatibility
-    res.status(500).json({ 
-      error: 'Internal server error',
-      details: error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error'
-    });
-  }
-}
-```
-
-That's it! No new files, no complex session management. Just a few lines of code.
-
-### Step 2: Update Package Scripts
-
-#### 2.1 Update `package.json`
-
-Add a simple script for n8n mode:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "start:n8n": "N8N_MODE=true MCP_MODE=http node dist/mcp/index.js"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Step 3: Create Docker Infrastructure for n8n
-
-#### 3.1 Create `Dockerfile.n8n`
-
-```dockerfile
-# Dockerfile.n8n - Optimized for n8n integration
-FROM node:22-alpine AS builder
-
-WORKDIR /app
-
-# Install build dependencies
-RUN apk add --no-cache python3 make g++
-
-# Copy package files
-COPY package*.json tsconfig*.json ./
-
-# Install ALL dependencies
-RUN npm ci --no-audit --no-fund
-
-# Copy source and build
-COPY src ./src
-RUN npm run build && npm run rebuild
-
-# Runtime stage
-FROM node:22-alpine
-
-WORKDIR /app
-
-# Install runtime dependencies
-RUN apk add --no-cache curl dumb-init
-
-# Create non-root user
-RUN addgroup -g 1001 -S nodejs && adduser -S nodejs -u 1001
-
-# Copy application from builder
-COPY --from=builder --chown=nodejs:nodejs /app/dist ./dist
-COPY --from=builder --chown=nodejs:nodejs /app/data ./data
-COPY --from=builder --chown=nodejs:nodejs /app/node_modules ./node_modules
-COPY --chown=nodejs:nodejs package.json ./
-
-USER nodejs
-
-EXPOSE 3001
-
-HEALTHCHECK CMD curl -f http://localhost:3001/health || exit 1
-
-ENTRYPOINT ["dumb-init", "--"]
-CMD ["node", "dist/mcp/index.js"]
-```
-
-#### 3.2 Create `docker-compose.n8n.yml`
-
-```yaml
-# docker-compose.n8n.yml - Simple stack for n8n + n8n-mcp
-version: '3.8'
-
-services:
-  n8n:
-    image: n8nio/n8n:latest
-    container_name: n8n

-    environment:
-      - N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=${N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE:-true}
-      - N8N_BASIC_AUTH_USER=${N8N_USER:-admin}
-      - N8N_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=${N8N_PASSWORD:-changeme}
-      - N8N_COMMUNITY_PACKAGES_ALLOW_TOOL_USAGE=true
-    volumes:
-      - n8n_data:/home/node/.n8n
-    networks:
-      - n8n-net
-    depends_on:
-      n8n-mcp:
-        condition: service_healthy
-
-  n8n-mcp:
-    image: ghcr.io/${GITHUB_USER:-czlonkowski}/n8n-mcp-n8n:latest
-    build:
-      context: .
-      dockerfile: Dockerfile.n8n
-    container_name: n8n-mcp
-    restart: unless-stopped
-    environment:
-      - MCP_MODE=http
-      - N8N_MODE=true
-      - AUTH_TOKEN=${MCP_AUTH_TOKEN}
-      - NODE_ENV=production
-      - HTTP_PORT=3001
-    networks:
-      - n8n-net
-    healthcheck:
-      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:3001/health"]
-      interval: 30s
-      timeout: 10s
-      retries: 3
-
-networks:
-  n8n-net:
-    driver: bridge
-
-volumes:
-  n8n_data:
-```
-
-#### 3.3 Create `.env.n8n.example`
-
-```bash
-# .env.n8n.example - Copy to .env and configure
-
-# n8n Configuration
-N8N_USER=admin
-N8N_PASSWORD=changeme
-N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=true
-
-# MCP Configuration
-# Generate with: openssl rand -base64 32
-MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-minimum-32-characters
-
-# GitHub username for image registry
-GITHUB_USER=czlonkowski
-```
-
-### Step 4: Create GitHub Actions Workflow
-
-#### 4.1 Create `.github/workflows/docker-build-n8n.yml`
-
-```yaml
-name: Build n8n Docker Image
-
-on:
-  push:
-    branches: [main]
-    tags: ['v*']
-    paths:
-      - 'src/**'
-      - 'package*.json'
-      - 'Dockerfile.n8n'
-  workflow_dispatch:
-
-env:
-  REGISTRY: ghcr.io
-  IMAGE_NAME: ${{ github.repository }}-n8n
-
-jobs:
-  build:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    permissions:
-      contents: read
-      packages: write
-      
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-      
-      - uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
-      
-      - uses: docker/login-action@v3
-        with:
-          registry: ${{ env.REGISTRY }}
-          username: ${{ github.actor }}
-          password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
-          
-      - uses: docker/metadata-action@v5
-        id: meta
-        with:
-          images: ${{ env.REGISTRY }}/${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }}
-          tags: |
-            type=ref,event=branch
-            type=semver,pattern={{version}}
-            type=raw,value=latest,enable={{is_default_branch}}
-            
-      - uses: docker/build-push-action@v5
-        with:
-          context: .
-          file: ./Dockerfile.n8n
-          push: true
-          tags: ${{ steps.meta.outputs.tags }}
-          cache-from: type=gha
-          cache-to: type=gha,mode=max
-```
-
-### Step 5: Testing
-
-#### 5.1 Unit Tests for n8n Mode
-
-Create `tests/unit/http-server-n8n-mode.test.ts`:
-
-```typescript
-import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
-import request from 'supertest';
-
-describe('n8n Mode', () => {
-  it('should return protocol version on GET /mcp', async () => {
-    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
-    const app = await createTestApp();
-    
-    const response = await request(app)
-      .get('/mcp')
-      .expect(200);
-    
-    expect(response.body.protocolVersion).toBe('2024-11-05');
-    expect(response.body.serverInfo.capabilities.tools).toBe(true);
-  });
-  
-  it('should include session ID in response headers', async () => {
-    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
-    const app = await createTestApp();
-    
-    const response = await request(app)
-      .post('/mcp')
-      .set('Authorization', 'Bearer test-token')
-      .send({ jsonrpc: '2.0', method: 'initialize', id: 1 });
-    
-    expect(response.headers['mcp-session-id']).toBeDefined();
-  });
-  
-  it('should format errors as JSON-RPC', async () => {
-    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
-    const app = await createTestApp();
-    
-    const response = await request(app)
-      .post('/mcp')
-      .send({ invalid: 'request' })
-      .expect(500);
-    
-    expect(response.body.jsonrpc).toBe('2.0');
-    expect(response.body.error.code).toBe(-32603);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-#### 5.2 Quick Deployment Script
-
-Create `deploy/quick-deploy-n8n.sh`:
-
-```bash
-#!/bin/bash
-set -e
-
-echo "🚀 Quick Deploy n8n + n8n-mcp"
-
-# Check prerequisites
-command -v docker >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "Docker required"; exit 1; }
-command -v docker-compose >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "Docker Compose required"; exit 1; }
-
-# Generate auth token if not exists
-if [ ! -f .env ]; then
-  cp .env.n8n.example .env
-  TOKEN=$(openssl rand -base64 32)
-  sed -i "s/your-secure-token-minimum-32-characters/$TOKEN/" .env
-  echo "Generated MCP_AUTH_TOKEN: $TOKEN"
-fi
-
-# Deploy
-docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml up -d
-
-echo ""
-echo "✅ Deployment complete!"
-echo ""
-echo "📋 Next steps:"
-echo "1. Access n8n at http://localhost:5678"
-echo "   Username: admin (or check .env)"
-echo "   Password: changeme (or check .env)"
-echo ""
-echo "2. Create a workflow with MCP Client Tool:"
-echo "   - Server URL: http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp"
-echo "   - Authentication: Bearer Token"
-echo "   - Token: Check .env file for MCP_AUTH_TOKEN"
-echo ""
-echo "📊 View logs: docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml logs -f"
-echo "🛑 Stop: docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml down"
-```
-
-## Implementation Checklist (Simplified)
-
-### Code Changes
-- [ ] Add N8N_MODE flag to `http-server-single-session.ts`
-- [ ] Add protocol version endpoint (GET /mcp) when N8N_MODE=true
-- [ ] Add Mcp-Session-Id header to responses
-- [ ] Update error responses to JSON-RPC format when N8N_MODE=true
-- [ ] Add npm script `start:n8n` to package.json
-
-### Docker Infrastructure
-- [ ] Create `Dockerfile.n8n` for n8n-specific image
-- [ ] Create `docker-compose.n8n.yml` for simple deployment
-- [ ] Create `.env.n8n.example` template
-- [ ] Create GitHub Actions workflow `docker-build-n8n.yml`
-- [ ] Create `deploy/quick-deploy-n8n.sh` script
-
-### Testing
-- [ ] Write unit tests for n8n mode functionality
-- [ ] Test with actual n8n MCP Client Tool
-- [ ] Verify protocol version endpoint
-- [ ] Test authentication flow
-- [ ] Validate error formatting
-
-### Documentation
-- [ ] Update README with n8n deployment section
-- [ ] Document N8N_MODE environment variable
-- [ ] Add troubleshooting guide for common issues
-
-## Quick Start Guide
-
-### 1. One-Command Deployment
-
-```bash
-# Clone and deploy
-git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
-cd n8n-mcp
-./deploy/quick-deploy-n8n.sh
-```
-
-### 2. Manual Configuration in n8n
-
-After deployment, configure the MCP Client Tool in n8n:
-
-1. Open n8n at `http://localhost:5678`
-2. Create a new workflow
-3. Add "MCP Client Tool" node (under AI category)
-4. Configure:
-   - **Server URL**: `http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp`
-   - **Authentication**: Bearer Token
-   - **Token**: Check your `.env` file for MCP_AUTH_TOKEN
-5. Select a tool (e.g., `list_nodes`)
-6. Execute the workflow
-
-### 3. Production Deployment
-
-For production with SSL, use a reverse proxy:
-
-```nginx
-# nginx configuration
-server {
-    listen 443 ssl;
-    server_name n8n.yourdomain.com;
-    
-    location / {
-        proxy_pass http://localhost:5678;
-        proxy_http_version 1.1;
-        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
-        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
-    }
-}
-```
-
-The MCP server should remain internal only - n8n connects via Docker network.
-
-## Success Criteria
-
-The implementation is successful when:
-
-1. **Minimal Code Changes**: Only ~20 lines added to existing server
-2. **Protocol Compliance**: GET /mcp returns correct protocol version
-3. **n8n Connection**: MCP Client Tool connects successfully
-4. **Tool Execution**: Tools work without modification
-5. **Backward Compatible**: Existing Claude Desktop usage unaffected
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-1. **"Protocol version mismatch"**
-   - Ensure N8N_MODE=true is set
-   - Check GET /mcp returns "2024-11-05"
-
-2. **"Authentication failed"**
-   - Verify AUTH_TOKEN matches in .env and n8n
-   - Token must be 32+ characters
-   - Use "Bearer Token" auth type in n8n
-
-3. **"Connection refused"**
-   - Check containers are on same network
-   - Use internal hostname: `http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp`
-   - Verify health check passes
-
-4. **Testing the Setup**
-   ```bash
-   # Check protocol version
-   docker exec n8n-mcp curl http://localhost:3001/mcp
-   
-   # View logs
-   docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml logs -f n8n-mcp
-   ```
-
-## Summary
-
-This simplified approach:
-- **Extends existing code** rather than creating new architecture
-- **Adds n8n compatibility** with minimal changes
-- **Uses separate Docker image** for clean deployment
-- **Maintains backward compatibility** for existing users
-- **Avoids overengineering** with simple, practical solutions
-
-Total implementation effort: ~2-3 hours (vs. 2-3 days for multi-session approach)

-
-## GitHub Actions Integration
-
-### Test Workflow (`test.yml`)
-
-The main test workflow:
-1. Runs tests with coverage using multiple reporters
-2. Generates test summaries and detailed reports
-3. Uploads artifacts with metadata
-4. Posts summaries to PRs
-5. Creates a combined artifact index
-
-### Benchmark PR Workflow (`benchmark-pr.yml`)
-
-For pull requests:
-1. Runs benchmarks on PR branch
-2. Runs benchmarks on base branch
-3. Compares results
-4. Posts comparison to PR
-5. Sets status checks for regressions
-
-## Artifact Retention
-
-- **Test Results**: 30 days
-- **Coverage Reports**: 30 days
-- **Benchmark Results**: 30 days
-- **Combined Results**: 90 days
-- **Test Metadata**: 30 days
-
-## PR Comment Integration
-
-The system automatically:
-- Posts test summaries to PR comments
-- Updates existing comments instead of creating duplicates
-- Includes links to full artifacts
-- Shows coverage and benchmark changes
-
-## Job Summary
-
-Each workflow run includes a job summary with:
-- Test results overview
-- Coverage summary
-- Benchmark results
-- Direct links to download artifacts
-
-## Local Development
-
-### Running Tests with Reports
-
-```bash
-# Run tests with all reporters
-CI=true npm run test:coverage
-
-# Generate detailed reports
-node scripts/generate-detailed-reports.js
-
-# Generate test summary
-node scripts/generate-test-summary.js
-
-# Compare benchmarks
-node scripts/compare-benchmarks.js benchmark-results.json benchmark-baseline.json
-```
-
-### Report Locations
-
-When running locally, reports are generated in:
-- `test-results/` - Vitest outputs
-- `test-reports/` - Detailed reports
-- `coverage/` - Coverage reports
-- Root directory - Summary files
-
-## Report Formats
-
-### HTML Report Features

-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Always Check Artifacts**: When tests fail in CI, download and review the HTML report
-2. **Monitor Coverage**: Use the coverage reports to identify untested code
-3. **Track Benchmarks**: Review benchmark comparisons on performance-critical PRs
-4. **Archive Important Runs**: Download artifacts from significant releases
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Missing Artifacts
-- Check if tests ran to completion
-- Verify artifact upload steps executed
-- Check retention period hasn't expired
-
-### Report Generation Failures
-- Ensure all dependencies are installed
-- Check for valid test/coverage output files
-- Review workflow logs for errors
-
-### PR Comment Issues
-- Verify GitHub Actions permissions
-- Check bot authentication
-- Review comment posting logs

-
-## Mock Strategy
-
-### 1. Mock Service Worker (MSW) for API Mocking
-
-We use MSW for intercepting and mocking HTTP requests:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/mocks/n8n-api/handlers.ts
-import { http, HttpResponse } from 'msw';
-
-export const handlers = [
-  // Workflow endpoints
-  http.get('*/workflows/:id', ({ params }) => {
-    const workflow = mockWorkflows.find(w => w.id === params.id);
-    if (!workflow) {
-      return new HttpResponse(null, { status: 404 });
-    }
-    return HttpResponse.json(workflow);
-  }),
-
-  // Execution endpoints
-  http.post('*/workflows/:id/run', async ({ params, request }) => {
-    const body = await request.json();
-    return HttpResponse.json({
-      executionId: generateExecutionId(),
-      status: 'running'
-    });
-  })
-];
-```
-
-### 2. Database Mocking
-
-For unit tests, we mock the database layer:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/__mocks__/better-sqlite3.ts
-import { vi } from 'vitest';
-
-export default vi.fn(() => ({
-  prepare: vi.fn(() => ({
-    all: vi.fn().mockReturnValue([]),
-    get: vi.fn().mockReturnValue(undefined),
-    run: vi.fn().mockReturnValue({ changes: 1 }),
-    finalize: vi.fn()
-  })),
-  exec: vi.fn(),
-  close: vi.fn(),
-  pragma: vi.fn()
-}));
-```
-
-### 3. MCP SDK Mocking
-
-For testing MCP protocol interactions:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/mcp-protocol/test-helpers.ts
-export class TestableN8NMCPServer extends N8NMCPServer {
-  private transports = new Set<Transport>();
-  
-  async connectToTransport(transport: Transport): Promise<void> {
-    this.transports.add(transport);
-    await this.connect(transport);
-  }
-  
-  async close(): Promise<void> {
-    for (const transport of this.transports) {
-      await transport.close();
-    }
-    this.transports.clear();
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Test Patterns and Utilities
-
-### 1. Database Test Utilities
-
-```typescript
-// tests/utils/database-utils.ts
-export class TestDatabase {
-  constructor(options: TestDatabaseOptions = {}) {
-    this.options = {
-      mode: 'memory',
-      enableFTS5: true,
-      ...options
-    };
-  }
-
-  async initialize(): Promise<Database.Database> {
-    const db = this.options.mode === 'memory' 
-      ? new Database(':memory:') 
-      : new Database(this.dbPath);
-    
-    if (this.options.enableFTS5) {
-      await this.enableFTS5(db);
-    }
-    
-    return db;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Data Generators
-
-```typescript
-// tests/utils/data-generators.ts
-export class TestDataGenerator {
-  static generateNode(overrides: Partial<ParsedNode> = {}): ParsedNode {
-    return {
-      nodeType: `test.node${faker.number.int()}`,
-      displayName: faker.commerce.productName(),
-      description: faker.lorem.sentence(),
-      properties: this.generateProperties(5),
-      ...overrides
-    };
-  }
-
-  static generateWorkflow(nodeCount = 3): any {
-    const nodes = Array.from({ length: nodeCount }, (_, i) => ({
-      id: `node_${i}`,
-      type: 'test.node',
-      position: [i * 100, 0],
-      parameters: {}
-    }));
-    
-    return { nodes, connections: {} };
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Custom Assertions
-
-```typescript
-// tests/utils/assertions.ts
-export function expectValidMCPResponse(response: any): void {
-  expect(response).toBeDefined();
-  expect(response.content).toBeDefined();
-  expect(Array.isArray(response.content)).toBe(true);
-  expect(response.content[0]).toHaveProperty('type', 'text');
-  expect(response.content[0]).toHaveProperty('text');
-}
-
-export function expectNodeStructure(node: any): void {
-  expect(node).toHaveProperty('nodeType');
-  expect(node).toHaveProperty('displayName');
-  expect(node).toHaveProperty('properties');
-  expect(Array.isArray(node.properties)).toBe(true);
-}
-```
-
-## Unit Testing
-
-Our unit tests focus on testing individual components in isolation with mocked dependencies:
-
-### Service Layer Tests
-
-The bulk of our unit tests (400+ tests) are in the services layer:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/services/workflow-validator-comprehensive.test.ts
-describe('WorkflowValidator Comprehensive Tests', () => {
-  it('should validate complex workflow with AI nodes', () => {
-    const workflow = {
-      nodes: [
-        {
-          id: 'ai_agent',
-          type: '@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent',
-          parameters: { prompt: 'Analyze data' }
-        }
-      ],
-      connections: {}
-    };
-    
-    const result = validator.validateWorkflow(workflow);
-    expect(result.valid).toBe(true);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### Parser Tests
-
-Testing the node parsing logic:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/parsers/property-extractor.test.ts
-describe('PropertyExtractor', () => {
-  it('should extract nested properties correctly', () => {
-    const node = {
-      properties: [
-        {
-          displayName: 'Options',
-          name: 'options',
-          type: 'collection',
-          options: [
-            { name: 'timeout', type: 'number' }
-          ]
-        }
-      ]
-    };
-    
-    const extracted = extractor.extractProperties(node);
-    expect(extracted).toHaveProperty('options.timeout');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### Mock Testing
-
-Testing our mock implementations:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/__mocks__/n8n-nodes-base.test.ts
-describe('n8n-nodes-base mock', () => {
-  it('should provide mocked node definitions', () => {
-    const httpNode = mockNodes['n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest'];
-    expect(httpNode).toBeDefined();
-    expect(httpNode.description.displayName).toBe('HTTP Request');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-## Integration Testing
-
-Our integration tests verify the complete system behavior:
-
-### MCP Protocol Testing
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/mcp-protocol/tool-invocation.test.ts
-describe('MCP Tool Invocation', () => {
-  let mcpServer: TestableN8NMCPServer;
-  let client: Client;
-
-  beforeEach(async () => {
-    mcpServer = new TestableN8NMCPServer();
-    await mcpServer.initialize();
-    
-    const [serverTransport, clientTransport] = InMemoryTransport.createLinkedPair();
-    await mcpServer.connectToTransport(serverTransport);
-    
-    client = new Client({ name: 'test-client', version: '1.0.0' }, {});
-    await client.connect(clientTransport);
-  });
-
-  it('should list nodes with filtering', async () => {
-    const response = await client.callTool({ 
-      name: 'list_nodes', 
-      arguments: { category: 'trigger', limit: 10 } 
-    });
-    
-    expectValidMCPResponse(response);
-    const result = JSON.parse(response.content[0].text);
-    expect(result.nodes).toHaveLength(10);
-    expect(result.nodes.every(n => n.category === 'trigger')).toBe(true);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### Database Integration Testing
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/database/fts5-search.test.ts
-describe('FTS5 Search Integration', () => {
-  it('should perform fuzzy search', async () => {
-    const results = await nodeRepo.searchNodes('HTT', 'FUZZY');
-    
-    expect(results.some(n => n.nodeType.includes('httpRequest'))).toBe(true);
-    expect(results.some(n => n.displayName.includes('HTTP'))).toBe(true);
-  });
-
-  it('should handle complex boolean queries', async () => {
-    const results = await nodeRepo.searchNodes('webhook OR http', 'OR');
-    
-    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
-    expect(results.some(n => 
-      n.description?.includes('webhook') || 
-      n.description?.includes('http')
-    )).toBe(true);
-  });
-});
-```

-
-on:
-  push:
-    branches: [main]
-  pull_request:
-    branches: [main]

-    "test:bench": "vitest bench --config vitest.config.benchmark.ts",
-    "benchmark:ci": "CI=true node scripts/run-benchmarks-ci.js"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### CI Test Results Summary
-
-From our latest CI run (#41):
-
-```
-UNIT TESTS:
- Test Files  30 passed (30)
-      Tests  932 passed | 1 skipped (933)
-
-INTEGRATION TESTS:
- Test Files  14 passed (14)
-      Tests  245 passed | 4 skipped (249)
-
-TOTAL: 1,177 passed | 5 skipped | 0 failed
-```
-
-## Performance Testing
-
-We use Vitest's built-in benchmark functionality:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/benchmarks/database-queries.bench.ts
-import { bench, describe } from 'vitest';
-
-describe('Database Query Performance', () => {
-  bench('search nodes by category', async () => {
-    await nodeRepo.getNodesByCategory('trigger');
-  });
-
-  bench('FTS5 search performance', async () => {
-    await nodeRepo.searchNodes('webhook http request', 'AND');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-## Environment Configuration
-
-Test environment is configured via `.env.test`:
-
-```bash
-# Test Environment Configuration
-NODE_ENV=test
-TEST_DB_PATH=:memory:
-TEST_PARALLEL=false
-TEST_MAX_WORKERS=4
-FEATURE_TEST_COVERAGE=true
-MSW_ENABLED=true
-```
-
-## Key Patterns and Lessons Learned
-
-### 1. Response Structure Consistency
-
-All MCP responses follow a specific structure that must be handled correctly:
-
-```typescript
-// Common pattern for handling MCP responses
-const response = await client.callTool({ name: 'list_nodes', arguments: {} });
-
-// MCP responses have content array with text objects
-expect(response.content).toBeDefined();
-expect(response.content[0].type).toBe('text');
-
-// Parse the actual data
-const data = JSON.parse(response.content[0].text);
-```
-
-### 2. MSW Integration Setup
-
-Proper MSW setup is crucial for integration tests:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/setup/integration-setup.ts
-import { setupServer } from 'msw/node';
-import { handlers } from '@tests/mocks/n8n-api/handlers';
-
-// Create server but don't start it globally
-const server = setupServer(...handlers);
-
-beforeAll(async () => {
-  // Only start MSW for integration tests
-  if (process.env.MSW_ENABLED === 'true') {
-    server.listen({ onUnhandledRequest: 'bypass' });
-  }
-});
-
-afterAll(async () => {
-  server.close();
-});
-```
-
-### 3. Database Isolation for Parallel Tests
-
-Each test gets its own database to enable parallel execution:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/utils/database-utils.ts
-export function createTestDatabaseAdapter(
-  db?: Database.Database,
-  options: TestDatabaseOptions = {}
-): DatabaseAdapter {
-  const database = db || new Database(':memory:');
-  
-  // Enable FTS5 if needed
-  if (options.enableFTS5) {
-    database.exec('PRAGMA main.compile_options;');
-  }
-  
-  return new DatabaseAdapter(database);
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Environment-Aware Performance Thresholds
-
-CI environments are slower, so we adjust expectations:
-
-```typescript
-// Environment-aware thresholds
-const getThreshold = (local: number, ci: number) => 
-  process.env.CI ? ci : local;
-
-it('should respond quickly', async () => {
-  const start = performance.now();
-  await someOperation();
-  const duration = performance.now() - start;
-  
-  expect(duration).toBeLessThan(getThreshold(50, 200));
-});
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### 1. Test Isolation
-- Each test creates its own database instance
-- Tests clean up after themselves
-- No shared state between tests
-
-### 2. Proper Cleanup Order
-```typescript
-afterEach(async () => {
-  // Close client first to ensure no pending requests
-  await client.close();
-  
-  // Give time for client to fully close
-  await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 50));
-  
-  // Then close server
-  await mcpServer.close();
-  
-  // Finally cleanup database
-  await testDb.cleanup();
-});
-```
-
-### 3. Handle Async Operations Carefully
-```typescript
-// Avoid race conditions in cleanup
-it('should handle disconnection', async () => {
-  // ... test code ...
-  
-  // Ensure operations complete before cleanup
-  await transport.close();
-  await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 100));
-});
-```
-
-### 4. Meaningful Test Organization
-- Group related tests using `describe` blocks
-- Use descriptive test names that explain the behavior
-- Follow AAA pattern: Arrange, Act, Assert
-- Keep tests focused on single behaviors
-
-## Debugging Tests
-
-### Running Specific Tests
-```bash
-# Run a single test file
-npm test tests/integration/mcp-protocol/tool-invocation.test.ts
-
-# Run tests matching a pattern
-npm test -- --grep "should list nodes"
-
-# Run with debugging output
-DEBUG=* npm test
-```
-
-### VSCode Integration

-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-## Test Coverage
-
-While we don't enforce strict coverage thresholds yet, the infrastructure is in place:
-- Coverage reports generated in `lcov`, `html`, and `text` formats
-- Integration with Codecov for tracking coverage over time
-- Per-file coverage visible in VSCode with extensions
-
-## Future Improvements
-
-1. **E2E Testing**: Add Playwright for testing the full MCP server interaction
-2. **Load Testing**: Implement k6 or Artillery for stress testing
-3. **Contract Testing**: Add Pact for ensuring API compatibility
-4. **Visual Regression**: For any UI components that may be added
-5. **Mutation Testing**: Use Stryker to ensure test quality
-
-## Common Issues and Solutions
-
-### 1. Tests Hanging in CI
-
-**Problem**: Tests would hang indefinitely in CI due to `process.exit()` calls.
-
-**Solution**: Remove all `process.exit()` calls from test code and use proper cleanup:
-```typescript
-// Bad
-afterAll(() => {
-  process.exit(0); // This causes Vitest to hang
-});
-
-// Good
-afterAll(async () => {
-  await cleanup();
-  // Let Vitest handle process termination
-});
-```
-
-### 2. MCP Response Structure
-
-**Problem**: Tests expecting wrong response format from MCP tools.
-
-**Solution**: Always access responses through `content[0].text`:
-```typescript
-// Wrong
-const data = response[0].text;
-
-// Correct
-const data = JSON.parse(response.content[0].text);
-```
-
-### 3. Database Not Found Errors
-
-**Problem**: Tests failing with "node not found" when database is empty.
-
-**Solution**: Check for empty databases before assertions:
-```typescript
-const stats = await server.executeTool('get_database_statistics', {});
-if (stats.totalNodes > 0) {
-  expect(result.nodes.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
-} else {
-  expect(result.nodes).toHaveLength(0);
-}
-```
-
-### 4. MSW Loading Globally
-
-**Problem**: MSW interfering with unit tests when loaded globally.
-
-**Solution**: Only load MSW in integration test setup:
-```typescript
-// vitest.config.integration.ts
-setupFiles: [
-  './tests/setup/global-setup.ts',
-  './tests/integration/setup/integration-setup.ts' // MSW only here
-]
-```

-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 1.3 Migrate Existing Tests
-
-```typescript
-// Before (Jest)
-import { describe, test, expect } from '@jest/globals';
-
-// After (Vitest)
-import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';

-// Vitest: vi.mock('module')
-
-// Update timer mocks
-// Jest: jest.useFakeTimers()
-// Vitest: vi.useFakeTimers()
-```
-
-### 1.4 Create Test Database Setup
-
-```typescript
-// tests/setup/test-database.ts
-import Database from 'better-sqlite3';
-import { readFileSync } from 'fs';
-import { join } from 'path';
-
-export class TestDatabase {
-  private db: Database.Database;
-  
-  constructor() {
-    this.db = new Database(':memory:');
-    this.initialize();
-  }
-  
-  private initialize() {
-    const schema = readFileSync(
-      join(__dirname, '../../src/database/schema.sql'),
-      'utf8'
-    );
-    this.db.exec(schema);
-  }
-  
-  seedNodes(nodes: any[]) {
-    const stmt = this.db.prepare(`
-      INSERT INTO nodes (type, displayName, name, group, version, description, properties)
-      VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
-    `);
-    
-    const insertMany = this.db.transaction((nodes) => {
-      for (const node of nodes) {
-        stmt.run(
-          node.type,
-          node.displayName,
-          node.name,
-          node.group,

-    
-    insertMany(nodes);
-  }
-  
-  close() {
-    this.db.close();
-  }
-  
-  getDb() {
-    return this.db;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Phase 2: Core Unit Tests (Week 3-4)
-
-### 2.1 Test Organization Template
-
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/services/[service-name].test.ts
-import { describe, it, expect, beforeEach, afterEach, vi } from 'vitest';
-import { ServiceName } from '@/services/service-name';
-
-describe('ServiceName', () => {
-  let service: ServiceName;
-  let mockDependency: any;
-  
-  beforeEach(() => {
-    // Setup mocks
-    mockDependency = {
-      method: vi.fn()
-    };
-    
-    // Create service instance
-    service = new ServiceName(mockDependency);
-  });
-  
-  afterEach(() => {
-    vi.clearAllMocks();
-  });
-  
-  describe('methodName', () => {
-    it('should handle happy path', async () => {
-      // Arrange
-      const input = { /* test data */ };
-      mockDependency.method.mockResolvedValue({ /* mock response */ });
-      
-      // Act
-      const result = await service.methodName(input);
-      
-      // Assert
-      expect(result).toEqual(/* expected output */);
-      expect(mockDependency.method).toHaveBeenCalledWith(/* expected args */);
-    });
-    
-    it('should handle errors gracefully', async () => {
-      // Arrange
-      mockDependency.method.mockRejectedValue(new Error('Test error'));
-      
-      // Act & Assert
-      await expect(service.methodName({})).rejects.toThrow('Expected error message');
-    });
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### 2.2 Mock Strategies by Layer
-
-#### Database Layer
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/database/node-repository.test.ts
-import { vi } from 'vitest';
-
-vi.mock('better-sqlite3', () => ({
-  default: vi.fn(() => ({
-    prepare: vi.fn(() => ({
-      all: vi.fn(() => mockData),
-      get: vi.fn((id) => mockData.find(d => d.id === id)),
-      run: vi.fn(() => ({ changes: 1 }))
-    })),
-    exec: vi.fn(),
-    close: vi.fn()
-  }))
-}));
-```
-
-#### External APIs
-```typescript
-// tests/unit/services/__mocks__/axios.ts
-export default {
-  create: vi.fn(() => ({
-    get: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve({ data: {} })),
-    post: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve({ data: { id: '123' } })),
-    put: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve({ data: {} })),
-    delete: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve({ data: {} }))
-  }))
-};
-```
-
-#### File System
-```typescript
-// Use memfs for file system mocking
-import { vol } from 'memfs';
-
-vi.mock('fs', () => vol);
-
-beforeEach(() => {
-  vol.reset();
-  vol.fromJSON({
-    '/test/file.json': JSON.stringify({ test: 'data' })
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### 2.3 Critical Path Tests
-
-```typescript
-// Priority 1: Node Loading and Parsing
-// tests/unit/loaders/node-loader.test.ts
-
-// Priority 2: Configuration Validation
-// tests/unit/services/config-validator.test.ts
-
-// Priority 3: MCP Tools
-// tests/unit/mcp/tools.test.ts
-
-// Priority 4: Database Operations
-// tests/unit/database/node-repository.test.ts
-
-// Priority 5: Workflow Validation
-// tests/unit/services/workflow-validator.test.ts
-```
-
-## Phase 3: Integration Tests (Week 5-6)
-
-### 3.1 Test Container Setup
-
-```typescript
-// tests/setup/test-containers.ts
-import { GenericContainer, StartedTestContainer } from 'testcontainers';
-
-export class N8nTestContainer {
-  private container: StartedTestContainer;
-  
-  async start() {
-    this.container = await new GenericContainer('n8nio/n8n:latest')
-      .withExposedPorts(5678)
-      .withEnv('N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE', 'false')
-      .withEnv('N8N_ENCRYPTION_KEY', 'test-key')
-      .start();
-    
-    return {
-      url: `http://localhost:${this.container.getMappedPort(5678)}`,
-      stop: () => this.container.stop()
-    };
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 3.2 Integration Test Pattern
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/n8n-api/workflow-crud.test.ts
-import { N8nTestContainer } from '@tests/setup/test-containers';
-import { N8nAPIClient } from '@/services/n8n-api-client';
-
-describe('n8n API Integration', () => {
-  let container: any;
-  let apiClient: N8nAPIClient;
-  
-  beforeAll(async () => {
-    container = await new N8nTestContainer().start();
-    apiClient = new N8nAPIClient(container.url);
-  }, 30000);
-  
-  afterAll(async () => {
-    await container.stop();
-  });
-  
-  it('should create and retrieve workflow', async () => {
-    // Create workflow
-    const workflow = createTestWorkflow();
-    const created = await apiClient.createWorkflow(workflow);
-    
-    expect(created.id).toBeDefined();
-    
-    // Retrieve workflow
-    const retrieved = await apiClient.getWorkflow(created.id);
-    expect(retrieved.name).toBe(workflow.name);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-## Phase 4: E2E & Performance (Week 7-8)
-
-### 4.1 E2E Test Setup
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/workflows/complete-workflow.test.ts
-import { MCPClient } from '@tests/utils/mcp-client';
-import { N8nTestContainer } from '@tests/setup/test-containers';
-
-describe('Complete Workflow E2E', () => {
-  let mcpServer: any;
-  let n8nContainer: any;
-  let mcpClient: MCPClient;
-  
-  beforeAll(async () => {
-    // Start n8n
-    n8nContainer = await new N8nTestContainer().start();
-    
-    // Start MCP server
-    mcpServer = await startMCPServer({
-      n8nUrl: n8nContainer.url
-    });
-    
-    // Create MCP client
-    mcpClient = new MCPClient(mcpServer.url);
-  }, 60000);
-  
-  it('should execute complete workflow creation flow', async () => {
-    // 1. Search for nodes
-    const searchResult = await mcpClient.call('search_nodes', {
-      query: 'webhook http slack'
-    });
-    
-    // 2. Get node details
-    const webhookInfo = await mcpClient.call('get_node_info', {
-      nodeType: 'nodes-base.webhook'
-    });
-    
-    // 3. Create workflow
-    const workflow = new WorkflowBuilder('E2E Test')
-      .addWebhookNode()
-      .addHttpRequestNode()
-      .addSlackNode()
-      .connectSequentially()
-      .build();
-    
-    // 4. Validate workflow
-    const validation = await mcpClient.call('validate_workflow', {
-      workflow
-    });
-    
-    expect(validation.isValid).toBe(true);
-    
-    // 5. Deploy to n8n
-    const deployed = await mcpClient.call('n8n_create_workflow', {
-      ...workflow
-    });
-    
-    expect(deployed.id).toBeDefined();
-    expect(deployed.active).toBe(false);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-### 4.2 Performance Benchmarks
-
-```typescript
-// vitest.benchmark.config.ts
-export default {
-  test: {
-    benchmark: {
-      // Output benchmark results
-      outputFile: './benchmark-results.json',
-      
-      // Compare with baseline
-      compare: './benchmark-baseline.json',

-        p99: 1.2  // 120% of baseline
-      }
-    }
-  }
-};
-```
-
-## Testing Best Practices
-
-### 1. Test Naming Convention
-```typescript
-// Format: should [expected behavior] when [condition]
-it('should return user data when valid ID is provided')
-it('should throw ValidationError when email is invalid')
-it('should retry 3 times when network fails')
-```
-
-### 2. Test Data Builders
-```typescript
-// Use builders for complex test data
-const user = new UserBuilder()
-  .withEmail('test@example.com')
-  .withRole('admin')
-  .build();
-```
-
-### 3. Custom Matchers
-```typescript
-// tests/utils/matchers.ts
-export const toBeValidNode = (received: any) => {
-  const pass = 
-    received.type &&
-    received.displayName &&
-    received.properties &&
-    Array.isArray(received.properties);
-  
-  return {
-    pass,
-    message: () => `expected ${received} to be a valid node`
-  };
-};
-
-// Usage
-expect(node).toBeValidNode();
-```
-
-### 4. Snapshot Testing
-```typescript
-// For complex structures
-it('should generate correct node schema', () => {
-  const schema = generateNodeSchema(node);
-  expect(schema).toMatchSnapshot();
-});
-```
-
-### 5. Test Isolation
-```typescript
-// Always clean up after tests
-afterEach(async () => {
-  await cleanup();
-  vi.clearAllMocks();
-  vi.restoreAllMocks();
-});
-```

-# Token Efficiency Improvements Summary
-
-## Overview
-Made all MCP tool descriptions concise and token-efficient while preserving essential information.
-
-## Key Improvements
-
-### Before vs After Examples
-
-1. **search_nodes**
-   - Before: ~350 chars with verbose explanation
-   - After: 165 chars
-   - `Search nodes by keywords. Modes: OR (any word), AND (all words), FUZZY (typos OK). Primary nodes ranked first. Examples: "webhook"→Webhook, "http call"→HTTP Request.`
-
-2. **get_node_info**
-   - Before: ~450 chars with warnings about size
-   - After: 174 chars
-   - `Get FULL node schema (100KB+). TIP: Use get_node_essentials first! Returns all properties/operations/credentials. Prefix required: "nodes-base.httpRequest" not "httpRequest".`
-
-3. **validate_node_minimal**
-   - Before: ~350 chars explaining what it doesn't do
-   - After: 102 chars
-   - `Fast check for missing required fields only. No warnings/suggestions. Returns: list of missing fields.`
-
-4. **get_property_dependencies**
-   - Before: ~400 chars with full example
-   - After: 131 chars
-   - `Shows property dependencies and visibility rules. Example: sendBody=true reveals body fields. Test visibility with optional config.`
-
-## Statistics
-
-### Documentation Tools (22 tools)
-- Average description length: **129 characters**
-- Total characters: 2,836
-- Tools over 200 chars: 1 (list_nodes at 204)
-
-### Management Tools (17 tools)
-- Average description length: **93 characters**
-- Total characters: 1,578
-- Tools over 200 chars: 1 (n8n_update_partial_workflow at 284)
-
-## Strategy Used
-
-1. **Remove redundancy**: Eliminated repeated information available in parameter descriptions
-2. **Use abbreviations**: "vs" instead of "versus", "&" instead of "and" where appropriate
-3. **Compact examples**: `"webhook"→Webhook` instead of verbose explanations
-4. **Direct language**: "Fast check" instead of "Quick validation that only checks"
-5. **Move details to documentation**: Complex tools reference `tools_documentation()` for full details
-6. **Essential info only**: Focus on what the tool does, not how it works internally
-
-## Special Cases
-
-### n8n_update_partial_workflow
-This tool's description is necessarily longer (284 chars) because:
-- Lists all 13 operation types
-- Critical for users to know available operations
-- Directs to full documentation for details
-
-### Complex Documentation Preserved
-For tools like `n8n_update_partial_workflow`, detailed documentation was moved to `tools-documentation.ts` rather than deleted, ensuring users can still access comprehensive information when needed.
-
-## Impact
-- **Token savings**: ~65-70% reduction in description tokens
-- **Faster AI responses**: Less context used for tool descriptions
-- **Better UX**: Clearer, more scannable tool list
-- **Maintained functionality**: All essential information preserved

-# Transactional Updates Example
-
-This example demonstrates the new transactional update capabilities in v2.7.0.
-
-## Before (v2.6.x and earlier)
-
-Previously, you had to carefully order operations to ensure nodes existed before connecting them:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "workflow-123",
-  "operations": [
-    // 1. First add all nodes
-    { "type": "addNode", "node": { "name": "Process", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.set", ... }},
-    { "type": "addNode", "node": { "name": "Notify", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.slack", ... }},
-    
-    // 2. Then add connections (would fail if done before nodes)
-    { "type": "addConnection", "source": "Webhook", "target": "Process" },
-    { "type": "addConnection", "source": "Process", "target": "Notify" }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-## After (v2.7.0+)
-
-Now you can write operations in any order - the engine automatically handles dependencies:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "workflow-123",
-  "operations": [
-    // Connections can come first!
-    { "type": "addConnection", "source": "Webhook", "target": "Process" },
-    { "type": "addConnection", "source": "Process", "target": "Notify" },
-    
-    // Nodes added later - still works!
-    { "type": "addNode", "node": { "name": "Process", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.set", "position": [400, 300] }},
-    { "type": "addNode", "node": { "name": "Notify", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.slack", "position": [600, 300] }}
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. **Two-Pass Processing**:
-   - Pass 1: All node operations (add, remove, update, move, enable, disable)
-   - Pass 2: All other operations (connections, settings, metadata)
-
-2. **Operation Limit**: Maximum 5 operations per request keeps complexity manageable
-
-3. **Atomic Updates**: All operations succeed or all fail - no partial updates
-
-## Benefits for AI Agents
-
-- **Intuitive**: Write operations in the order that makes sense logically
-- **Reliable**: No need to track dependencies manually
-- **Simple**: Focus on what to change, not how to order changes
-- **Safe**: Built-in limits prevent overly complex operations
-
-## Complete Example
-
-Here's a real-world example of adding error handling to a workflow:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "workflow-123",
-  "operations": [
-    // Define the flow first (makes logical sense)
-    { 
-      "type": "removeConnection", 
-      "source": "HTTP Request", 
-      "target": "Save to DB" 
-    },
-    { 
-      "type": "addConnection", 
-      "source": "HTTP Request", 
-      "target": "Error Handler" 
-    },
-    { 
-      "type": "addConnection", 
-      "source": "Error Handler", 
-      "target": "Send Alert" 
-    },
-    
-    // Then add the nodes
-    { 
-      "type": "addNode", 
-      "node": {
-        "name": "Error Handler",
-        "type": "n8n-nodes-base.if",
-        "position": [500, 400],
-        "parameters": {
-          "conditions": {
-            "boolean": [{
-              "value1": "={{$json.error}}",
-              "value2": true
-            }]
-          }
-        }
-      }
-    },
-    { 
-      "type": "addNode", 
-      "node": {
-        "name": "Send Alert",
-        "type": "n8n-nodes-base.emailSend",
-        "position": [700, 400],
-        "parameters": {
-          "to": "alerts@company.com",
-          "subject": "Workflow Error Alert"
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-All operations will be processed correctly, even though connections reference nodes that don't exist yet!

-# Validation Improvements v2.4.2
-
-Based on AI agent feedback, we've implemented several improvements to the `validate_node_operation` tool:
-
-## 🎯 Issues Addressed
-
-### 1. **@version Warnings** ✅ FIXED
-- **Issue**: Showed confusing warnings about `@version` property not being used
-- **Fix**: Filter out internal properties starting with `@` or `_`
-- **Result**: No more false warnings about internal n8n properties
-
-### 2. **Duplicate Errors** ✅ FIXED
-- **Issue**: Same error shown multiple times (e.g., missing `ts` field)
-- **Fix**: Implemented deduplication that keeps the most specific error message
-- **Result**: Each error shown only once with the best description
-
-### 3. **Basic Code Validation** ✅ ADDED
-- **Issue**: No syntax validation for Code node
-- **Fix**: Added basic syntax checks for JavaScript and Python
-- **Features**:
-  - Unbalanced braces/parentheses detection
-  - Python indentation consistency check
-  - n8n-specific patterns (return statement, input access)
-  - Security warnings (eval/exec usage)
-
-## 📊 Before & After
-
-### Before (v2.4.1):
-```json
-{
-  "errors": [
-    { "property": "ts", "message": "Required property 'Message Timestamp' is missing" },
-    { "property": "ts", "message": "Message timestamp (ts) is required to update a message" }
-  ],
-  "warnings": [
-    { "property": "@version", "message": "Property '@version' is configured but won't be used" }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-### After (v2.4.2):
-```json
-{
-  "errors": [
-    { "property": "ts", "message": "Message timestamp (ts) is required to update a message", 
-      "fix": "Provide the timestamp of the message to update" }
-  ],
-  "warnings": []  // No @version warning
-}
-```
-
-## 🆕 Code Validation Examples
-
-### JavaScript Syntax Check:
-```javascript
-// Missing closing brace
-if (true) {
-  return items;
-// Error: "Unbalanced braces detected"
-```
-
-### Python Indentation Check:
-```python
-def process():
-	if True:  # Tab
-    return items  # Spaces
-# Error: "Mixed tabs and spaces in indentation"
-```
-
-### n8n Pattern Check:
-```javascript
-const result = items.map(item => item.json);
-// Warning: "No return statement found"
-// Suggestion: "Add: return items;"
-```
-
-## 🚀 Impact
-
-- **Cleaner validation results** - No more noise from internal properties
-- **Clearer error messages** - Each issue reported once with best description
-- **Better code quality** - Basic syntax validation catches common mistakes
-- **n8n best practices** - Warns about missing return statements and input handling
-
-## 📝 Summary
-
-The `validate_node_operation` tool is now even more helpful for AI agents and developers:
-- 95% reduction in false positives (operation-aware)
-- No duplicate or confusing warnings
-- Basic code validation for common syntax errors
-- n8n-specific pattern checking
-
-**Rating improved from 9/10 to 9.5/10!** 🎉

-# n8n-MCP v2.7.0 Release Notes
-
-## 🎉 What's New
-
-### 🔧 File Refactoring & Version Management
-- **Renamed core MCP files** to remove unnecessary suffixes for cleaner codebase:
-  - `tools-update.ts` → `tools.ts`
-  - `server-update.ts` → `server.ts`
-  - `http-server-fixed.ts` → `http-server.ts`
-- **Fixed version management** - Now reads from package.json as single source of truth (fixes #5)
-- **Updated imports** across 21+ files to use the new file names
-
-### 🔍 New Diagnostic Tool
-- **Added `n8n_diagnostic` tool** - Helps troubleshoot why n8n management tools might not be appearing
-- Shows environment variable status, API connectivity, and tool availability
-- Provides step-by-step troubleshooting guidance
-- Includes verbose mode for additional debug information
-
-### 🧹 Code Cleanup
-- Removed legacy HTTP server implementation with known issues
-- Removed unused legacy API client
-- Added version utility for consistent version handling
-- Added script to sync runtime package version
-
-## 📦 Installation
-
-### Docker (Recommended)
-```bash
-docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:2.7.0
-```
-
-### Claude Desktop
-Update your configuration to use the latest version:
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "n8n-mcp": {
-      "command": "docker",
-      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:2.7.0"]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## 🐛 Bug Fixes
-- Fixed version mismatch where version was hardcoded as 2.4.1 instead of reading from package.json
-- Improved error messages for better debugging
-
-## 📚 Documentation Updates
-- Condensed version history in CLAUDE.md
-- Updated documentation structure in README.md
-- Removed outdated documentation files
-- Added n8n_diagnostic tool to documentation
-
-## 🙏 Acknowledgments
-Thanks to all contributors and users who reported issues!

+
+**⚠️ OUTPUT INDICES ARE COUNTERINTUITIVE ⚠️**
+
+The SplitInBatches node has TWO outputs with specific indices:
+- **Output 0 (index 0) = "done"**: Receives final processed data when loop completes
+- **Output 1 (index 1) = "loop"**: Receives current batch data during iteration
+
+### Correct Connection Pattern:
+1. Connect nodes that PROCESS items inside the loop to **Output 1 ("loop")**
+2. Connect nodes that run AFTER the loop completes to **Output 0 ("done")**
+3. The last processing node in the loop must connect back to the SplitInBatches node
+
+### Common Mistake:
+AI assistants often connect these backwards because the logical flow (loop first, then done) doesn't match the technical indices (done=0, loop=1).
