+
+## Overview
+n8n-mcp collects anonymous usage statistics to help improve the tool. This data collection is designed to respect user privacy while providing valuable insights into how the tool is used.
+
+## What We Collect
+- **Anonymous User ID**: A hashed identifier derived from your machine characteristics (no personal information)
+- **Tool Usage**: Which MCP tools are used and their performance metrics
+- **Workflow Patterns**: Sanitized workflow structures (all sensitive data removed)
+- **Error Types**: Categories of errors encountered (no error messages with user data)
+- **System Information**: Platform, architecture, Node.js version, and n8n-mcp version
+
+## What We DON'T Collect
+- Personal information or usernames
+- API keys, tokens, or credentials
+- URLs, endpoints, or hostnames
+- Email addresses or contact information
+- File paths or directory structures

+- Database connection strings
+- Any authentication information
+
+## Data Sanitization
+All collected data undergoes automatic sanitization:
+- URLs are replaced with `[URL]` or `[REDACTED]`
+- Long alphanumeric strings (potential keys) are replaced with `[KEY]`
+- Email addresses are replaced with `[EMAIL]`
+- Authentication-related fields are completely removed
+
+## Data Storage
+- Data is stored securely using Supabase
+- Anonymous users have write-only access (cannot read data back)
+- Row Level Security (RLS) policies prevent data access by anonymous users
+
+## Opt-Out
+You can disable telemetry at any time:
+```bash
+npx n8n-mcp telemetry disable
+```
+
+To re-enable:
+```bash

 ## 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

+# 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:
+
+1. **Configurable Cache Settings**: Runtime cache size/TTL configuration
+2. **Instance Metrics**: Per-instance usage tracking
+3. **Rate Limiting**: Per-instance rate limits
+4. **Instance Groups**: Logical grouping of instances
+5. **Persistent Cache**: Optional Redis/database backing
+6. **Instance Discovery**: Automatic instance detection
+
+## Support
+
+For issues or questions about flexible instance configuration:
+1. Check validation errors for specific problems
+2. Enable debug logging for detailed diagnostics
+3. Review test files for usage examples
+4. Open an issue on GitHub with details

+# 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.

+
+- Fetches the workflow from your n8n instance
+- Runs comprehensive validation to detect issues
+- Generates targeted fixes for common problems
+- Optionally applies the fixes back to the workflow
+
+The auto-fixer can resolve:
+1. **Expression Format Issues**: Missing '=' prefix in n8n expressions (e.g., {{ $json.field }} → ={{ $json.field }})
+2. **TypeVersion Corrections**: Downgrades nodes with unsupported typeVersions to maximum supported
+3. **Error Output Configuration**: Removes conflicting onError settings when error connections are missing
+4. **Node Type Corrections**: Intelligently fixes unknown node types using similarity matching:
+   - Handles deprecated package prefixes (n8n-nodes-base. → nodes-base.)
+   - Corrects capitalization mistakes (HttpRequest → httpRequest)
+   - Suggests correct packages (nodes-base.openai → nodes-langchain.openAi)
+   - Uses multi-factor scoring: name similarity, category match, package match, pattern match
+   - Only auto-fixes suggestions with ≥90% confidence
+   - Leverages NodeSimilarityService with 5-minute caching for performance
+5. **Webhook Path Generation**: Automatically generates UUIDs for webhook nodes missing path configuration:
+   - Generates a unique UUID for webhook path
+   - Sets both 'path' parameter and 'webhookId' field to the same UUID
+   - Ensures webhook nodes become functional with valid endpoints
+   - High confidence fix as UUID generation is deterministic
+
+The tool uses a confidence-based system to ensure safe fixes:
+- **High (≥90%)**: Safe to auto-apply (exact matches, known patterns)
+- **Medium (70-89%)**: Generally safe but review recommended
+- **Low (<70%)**: Manual review strongly recommended
