+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>

+model: sonnet
+---
+
+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.

 ## Important Rules
 
-- ALWAYS validate before building
-- ALWAYS validate after building
-- NEVER deploy unvalidated workflows
+- ALWAYS check for existing templates before building from scratch
+- LEVERAGE metadata filters to find skill-appropriate templates
+- **ALWAYS ATTRIBUTE TEMPLATES**: When using any template, you MUST share the author's name, username, and link to the original template on n8n.io
+- VALIDATE templates before deployment (they may need updates)
 - USE diff operations for updates (80-90% token savings)
 - STATE validation results clearly
 - FIX all errors before proceeding
+
+## Template Discovery Tips
+
+- **97.5% of templates have metadata** - Use smart filtering!
+- **Filter combinations work best** - Combine complexity + setup time + service
+- **Templates save 70-90% development time** - Always check first
+- **Metadata is AI-generated** - Occasionally imprecise but highly useful
+- **Use `includeMetadata: false` for fast browsing** - Add metadata only when needed

+
+## [2.11.1] - 2025-09-15
+
+### Added
+- **Optional Fields Parameter for search_templates**: Enhanced search_templates tool with field filtering capability
+  - New optional `fields` parameter accepts an array of field names to include in response
+  - Supported fields: 'id', 'name', 'description', 'author', 'nodes', 'views', 'created', 'url', 'metadata'
+  - Reduces response size by 70-98% when requesting only specific fields (e.g., just id and name)
+  - Maintains full backward compatibility - existing calls without fields parameter work unchanged
+  - Example: `search_templates({query: "slack", fields: ["id", "name"]})` returns minimal data
+  - Significantly improves AI agent performance by reducing token usage
+
+### Added
+- **Fuzzy Node Type Matching for Templates**: Improved template discovery with flexible node type resolution
+  - Templates can now be found using simple node names: `["slack"]` instead of `["n8n-nodes-base.slack"]`
+  - Accepts various input formats: bare names, partial prefixes, and case variations
+  - 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
+  - Added 23 tests for template node resolution

+
+## [2.11.0] - 2025-01-14
+
+### Added
+- **Comprehensive Template Pagination**: All template search and list tools now return paginated responses
+  - Consistent `PaginatedResponse` format with `items`, `total`, `limit`, `offset`, and `hasMore` fields
+  - Customizable limits (1-100) and offset parameters for all template tools
+  - Count methods for accurate pagination information across all template queries
+- **New `list_templates` Tool**: Efficient browsing of all available templates
+  - Returns minimal data (id, name, views, nodeCount) for quick overview
+  - Supports sorting by views, created_at, or name
+  - Optimized for discovering templates without downloading full workflow data
+- **Flexible Template Retrieval Modes**: Enhanced `get_template` with three response modes
+  - `nodes_only`: Returns just node types and names (minimal tokens)
+  - `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

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