+# N8N-MCP Validation Analysis: Quick Reference
+
+**Analysis Date**: November 8, 2025 | **Data Period**: 90 days | **Sample Size**: 29,218 events
+
+---
+
+## The Core Finding
+
+**Validation is working perfectly. Guidance is the problem.**
+
+- 29,218 validation events successfully prevented bad deployments
+- 100% of agents fix errors same-day (proving feedback works)
+- 12.6% error rate for advanced users (who attempt complex workflows)
+- High error volume = high usage, not broken system
+
+---
+
+## Top 3 Problem Areas (75% of errors)
+
+| Area | Errors | Root Cause | Quick Fix |
+|------|--------|-----------|-----------|
+| **Workflow Structure** | 1,268 (26%) | JSON malformation | Better error messages with examples |
+| **Connections** | 676 (14%) | Syntax unintuitive | Create connections guide with diagrams |
+| **Required Fields** | 378 (8%) | Not marked upfront | Add "⚠️ REQUIRED" to tool responses |
+
+---
+
+## Problem Nodes (By Frequency)
+
+```
+Webhook/Trigger ......... 127 failures (40 users)
+Slack .................. 73 failures (2 users)
+AI Agent ............... 36 failures (20 users)
+HTTP Request ........... 31 failures (13 users)
+OpenAI ................. 35 failures (8 users)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Top 5 Validation Errors
+
+1. **"Duplicate node ID: undefined"** (179)
+   - Fix: Point to exact location + show example format
+
+2. **"Single-node workflows only valid for webhooks"** (58)
+   - Fix: Create webhook guide explaining rule
+
+3. **"responseNode requires onError: continueRegularOutput"** (57)
+   - Fix: Same guide + inline error context
+
+4. **"Required property X cannot be empty"** (25)
+   - Fix: Mark required fields before validation
+
+5. **"Duplicate node name: undefined"** (61)
+   - Fix: Related to structural issues, same solution as #1
+
+---
+
+## Success Indicators
+
+✓ **Agents learn from errors**: 100% same-day correction rate
+✓ **Validation catches issues**: Prevents bad deployments
+✓ **Feedback is clear**: Quick fixes show error messages work
+✓ **No systemic failures**: No "unfixable" errors
+
+---
+
+## What Works Well
+
+- Error messages lead to immediate corrections
+- Agents retry and succeed same-day
+- Validation prevents broken workflows
+- 9,021 users actively using system
+
+---
+
+## What Needs Improvement
+
+1. Required fields not marked in tool responses
+2. Error messages don't show valid options for enums
+3. Workflow structure documentation lacks examples
+4. Connection syntax unintuitive/undocumented
+5. Some error messages too generic
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1 (2 weeks): Quick Wins
+- Enhanced error messages (location + example)
+- Required field markers in tools
+- Webhook configuration guide
+- **Expected Impact**: 25-30% failure reduction
+
+### Phase 2 (2 weeks): Documentation
+- Enum value suggestions in validation
+- Workflow connections guide
+- Error handler configuration guide
+- AI Agent validation improvements
+- **Expected Impact**: Additional 15-20% reduction
+
+### Phase 3 (2 weeks): Advanced Features
+- Improved search with config hints
+- Node type fuzzy matching
+- KPI tracking setup
+- Test coverage
+- **Expected Impact**: Additional 10-15% reduction
+
+**Total Impact**: 50-65% failure reduction (target: 6-7% error rate)
+
+---
+
+## Key Metrics
+
+| Metric | Current | Target | Timeline |
+|--------|---------|--------|----------|
+| Validation failure rate | 12.6% | 6-7% | 6 weeks |
+| First-attempt success | ~77% | 85%+ | 6 weeks |
+| Retry success | 100% | 100% | N/A |
+| Webhook failures | 127 | <30 | Week 2 |
+| Connection errors | 676 | <270 | Week 4 |
+

+5. **Week 8**: Deploy Phase 3 + measure impact
+6. **Week 9+**: Monitor KPIs + iterate
+
+---
+
+## Key Recommendations Priority
+
+### HIGH (Do First - Week 1-2)
+1. Enhance structure error messages
+2. Add required field markers to tools
+3. Create webhook configuration guide
+
+### MEDIUM (Do Next - Week 3-4)
+4. Add enum suggestions to validation responses
+5. Create workflow connections guide
+6. Add AI Agent node validation
+
+### LOW (Do Later - Week 5-6)
+7. Enhance search with config hints
+8. Build fuzzy node matcher
+9. Setup KPI tracking
+
+---
+
+## Discussion Points
+
+**Q: Why don't we just weaken validation?**
+A: Validation prevents 29,218 bad deployments. That's its job. We improve guidance instead.
+
+**Q: Are agents really learning from errors?**
+A: Yes, 100% same-day recovery across 661 user-date pairs with errors.
+
+**Q: Why do documentation readers have higher error rates?**
+A: They attempt more complex workflows (6.8x more attempts). Success rate is still 87.4%.
+
+**Q: Which node needs the most help?**
+A: Webhook/Trigger configuration (127 failures). Most urgent fix.
+
+**Q: Can we hit 50% reduction in 6 weeks?**
+A: Yes, analysis shows 50-65% reduction is achievable with these changes.

+- Types: `src/types/session-state.ts`
+- Implementation: `src/http-server-single-session.ts` (lines 698-702, 1444-1584)
+- Wrapper: `src/mcp-engine.ts` (lines 123-169)
+- Tests: `tests/unit/http-server/session-persistence.test.ts`, `tests/unit/mcp-engine/session-persistence.test.ts`
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Export/Restore API**: `exportSessionState()` and `restoreSessionState()` methods
+- **Multi-tenant support**: Enables zero-downtime deployments for SaaS platforms
+- **Security-first**: API keys exported as plaintext - downstream MUST encrypt
+- **Dormant sessions**: Restored sessions recreate transports on first request
+- **Automatic expiration**: Respects `sessionTimeout` setting (default 30 min)
+- **MAX_SESSIONS limit**: Caps at 100 concurrent sessions
+
+**Important Implementation Notes:**
+- Only exports sessions with valid n8nApiUrl and n8nApiKey in context
+- Skips expired sessions during both export and restore
+- Uses `validateInstanceContext()` for data integrity checks
+- Handles null/invalid session gracefully with warnings
+- Session metadata (timestamps) and context (credentials) are persisted
+- Transport and server objects are NOT persisted (recreated on-demand)
+
+**Testing:**
+- 22 unit tests covering export, restore, edge cases, and round-trip cycles
+- Tests use current timestamps to avoid expiration issues
+- Integration with multi-tenant backends documented in README.md

+**CRITICAL FIRST STEP**: Check existing releases to avoid version conflicts!
+
+```bash
+# 1. CHECK EXISTING RELEASES FIRST (prevents version conflicts!)
+gh release list | head -5
+# Look at the latest version - your new version must be higher!
+
+# 2. Switch to main and pull
+git checkout main && git pull
+
+# 3. Check for updates (dry run)
+npm run update:n8n:check
+
+# 4. Run update and skip tests (we'll test in CI)
+yes y | npm run update:n8n
+
+# 5. Create feature branch
+git checkout -b update/n8n-X.X.X
+
+# 6. Update version in package.json (must be HIGHER than latest release!)
+# Edit: "version": "2.XX.X" (not the version from the release list!)
+
+# 7. Update CHANGELOG.md
+# - Change version number to match package.json
+# - Update date to today
+# - Update dependency versions
+
+# 8. Update README badge
+# Edit line 8: Change n8n version badge to new n8n version
+
+# 9. Commit and push

+### Why This Workflow?
+
+✅ **Fast**: Skip local tests (2-3 min saved) - CI runs them anyway
+✅ **Safe**: Unit tests in CI verify compatibility
+✅ **Clean**: All changes in one PR with proper tracking
+✅ **Automatic**: Release workflow triggers on merge if version is new
+
+### Common Issues

-
-### Claude Desktop Container Management
-
-#### Container Accumulation (Fixed in v2.7.20+)
-Previous versions had an issue where containers would not properly clean up when Claude Desktop sessions ended. This has been fixed in v2.7.20+ with proper signal handling.
-
-**For best container lifecycle management:**
-1. **Use the --init flag** (recommended) - Docker's init system ensures proper signal handling:
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "n8n-mcp": {
-      "command": "docker",
-      "args": [
-        "run", "-i", "--rm", "--init",
-        "ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest"
-      ]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-2. **Ensure you're using v2.7.20 or later** - Check your version:
-```bash
-docker run --rm ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest --version
-```

+## Key Findings Overview
+
+### The Core Insight
+Validation failures are NOT broken—they're evidence the system works perfectly. 29,218 validation events prevented bad deployments. The challenge is GUIDANCE GAPS that cause first-attempt failures.
+
+### Success Evidence
+- 100% same-day error recovery rate
+- 100% retry success rate
+- All agents fix errors when given feedback
+- Zero "unfixable" errors
+
+### Problem Areas (75% of errors)
+1. **Workflow structure** (26%) - JSON malformation
+2. **Connections** (14%) - Unintuitive syntax
+3. **Required fields** (8%) - Not marked upfront
+
+### Most Problematic Nodes
+- Webhook/Trigger (127 failures)
+- Slack (73 failures)
+- AI Agent (36 failures)
+- HTTP Request (31 failures)
+- OpenAI (35 failures)
+
+### Solution Strategy
+- Phase 1: Better error messages + required field markers (25-30% reduction)

+# CI Test Infrastructure - Known Issues
+
+## Integration Test Failures for External Contributor PRs
+
+### Issue Summary
+
+Integration tests fail for external contributor PRs with "No response from n8n server" errors, despite the code changes being correct. This is a **test infrastructure issue**, not a code quality issue.
+
+### Root Cause
+
+1. **GitHub Actions Security**: External contributor PRs don't get access to repository secrets (`N8N_API_URL`, `N8N_API_KEY`, etc.)
+2. **MSW Mock Server**: Mock Service Worker (MSW) is not properly intercepting HTTP requests in the CI environment
+3. **Test Configuration**: Integration tests expect `http://localhost:3001/mock-api` but the mock server isn't responding
+
+### Evidence
+
+From CI logs (PR #343):
+```
+[CI-DEBUG] Global setup complete, N8N_API_URL: http://localhost:3001/mock-api
+❌ No response from n8n server (repeated 60+ times across 20 tests)
+```
+
+The tests ARE using the correct mock URL, but MSW isn't intercepting the requests.
+
+### Why This Happens
+
+**For External PRs:**
+- GitHub Actions doesn't expose repository secrets for security reasons
+- Prevents malicious PRs from exfiltrating secrets
+- MSW setup runs but requests don't get intercepted in CI
+
+**Test Configuration:**
+- `.env.test` line 19: `N8N_API_URL=http://localhost:3001/mock-api`
+- `.env.test` line 67: `MSW_ENABLED=true`
+- CI workflow line 75-80: Secrets set but empty for external PRs
+
+### Impact
+
+- ✅ **Code Quality**: NOT affected - the actual code changes are correct
+- ✅ **Local Testing**: Works fine - MSW intercepts requests locally
+- ❌ **CI for External PRs**: Integration tests fail (infrastructure issue)
+- ✅ **CI for Internal PRs**: Works fine (has access to secrets)
+
+### Current Workarounds
+
+1. **For Maintainers**: Use `--admin` flag to merge despite failing tests when code is verified correct
+2. **For Contributors**: Run tests locally where MSW works properly
+3. **For CI**: Unit tests pass (don't require n8n API), integration tests fail
+
+### Files Affected
+
+- `tests/integration/setup/integration-setup.ts` - MSW server setup
+- `tests/setup/msw-setup.ts` - MSW configuration
+- `tests/mocks/n8n-api/handlers.ts` - Mock request handlers
+- `.github/workflows/test.yml` - CI configuration
+- `.env.test` - Test environment configuration
+
+### Potential Solutions (Not Implemented)
+
+1. **Separate Unit/Integration Runs**
+   - Run integration tests only for internal PRs
+   - Skip integration tests for external PRs
+   - Rely on unit tests for external PR validation
+
+2. **MSW CI Debugging**
+   - Add extensive logging to MSW setup
+   - Check if MSW server actually starts in CI
+   - Verify request interception is working
+
+3. **Mock Server Process**
+   - Start actual HTTP server in CI instead of MSW
+   - More reliable but adds complexity
+   - Would require test infrastructure refactoring
+
+4. **Public Test Instance**
+   - Use publicly accessible test n8n instance
+   - Exposes test data, security concerns
+   - Would work for external PRs
+
+### Decision
+
+**Status**: Documented but not fixed
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Integration test infrastructure refactoring is separate concern from code quality
+- External PRs are relatively rare compared to internal development
+- Unit tests provide sufficient coverage for most changes
+- Maintainers can verify integration tests locally before merging
+
+### Testing Strategy
+
+**For External Contributor PRs:**
+1. ✅ Unit tests must pass
+2. ✅ TypeScript compilation must pass
+3. ✅ Build must succeed
+4. ⚠️ Integration test failures are expected (infrastructure issue)
+5. ✅ Maintainer verifies locally before merge
+
+**For Internal PRs:**
+1. ✅ All tests must pass (unit + integration)
+2. ✅ Full CI validation

-- If you're running n8n locally, use `http://localhost:5678` as the N8N_API_URL
-- The n8n API credentials are optional - without them, you'll have documentation and validation tools only
-- With API credentials, you'll get full workflow management capabilities
-- Use `--scope local` (default) to keep your API credentials private
-- Use `--scope project` to share configuration with your team (put credentials in environment variables)
-- Claude Code will automatically start the MCP server when you begin a conversation
+- If you're running n8n locally, use `http://localhost:5678` as the `N8N_API_URL`.
+- The n8n API credentials are optional. Without them, you'll only have access to documentation and validation tools. With credentials, you get full workflow management capabilities.
+- **Scope Management:**
+    - By default, `claude mcp add` uses `--scope local` (also called "user scope"), which saves the configuration to your global user settings and keeps API keys private.
+    - To share the configuration with your team, use `--scope project`. This saves the configuration to a `.mcp.json` file in your project's root directory.
+- **Switching Scope:** The cleanest method is to `remove` the server and then `add` it back with the desired scope flag (e.g., `claude mcp remove n8n-mcp` followed by `claude mcp add n8n-mcp --scope project`).
+- **Manual Switching (Advanced):** You can manually edit your `.claude.json` file (e.g., `C:\Users\YourName\.claude.json`). To switch, cut the `"n8n-mcp": { ... }` block from the top-level `"mcpServers"` object (user scope) and paste it into the nested `"mcpServers"` object under your project's path key (project scope), or vice versa. **Important:** You may need to restart Claude Code for manual changes to take effect.
+- Claude Code will automatically start the MCP server when you begin a conversation.

+# Session Persistence API - Production Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+The Session Persistence API enables zero-downtime container deployments in multi-tenant n8n-mcp environments. It allows you to export active MCP session state before shutdown and restore it after restart, maintaining session continuity across container lifecycle events.
+
+**Version:** 2.24.1+
+**Status:** Production-ready
+**Use Cases:** Multi-tenant SaaS, Kubernetes deployments, container orchestration, rolling updates
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Session State Components
+
+Each persisted session contains:
+
+1. **Session Metadata**
+   - `sessionId`: Unique session identifier (UUID v4)
+   - `createdAt`: ISO 8601 timestamp of session creation
+   - `lastAccess`: ISO 8601 timestamp of last activity
+
+2. **Instance Context**
+   - `n8nApiUrl`: n8n instance API endpoint
+   - `n8nApiKey`: n8n API authentication key (plaintext)
+   - `instanceId`: Optional tenant/instance identifier
+   - `sessionId`: Optional session-specific identifier
+   - `metadata`: Optional custom application data
+
+3. **Dormant Session Pattern**
+   - Transport and MCP server objects are NOT persisted
+   - Recreated automatically on first request after restore
+   - Reduces memory footprint during restore
+
+## API Reference
+
+### N8NMCPEngine.exportSessionState()
+
+Exports all active session state for persistence before shutdown.
+
+```typescript
+exportSessionState(): SessionState[]
+```
+
+**Returns:** Array of session state objects containing metadata and credentials
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+const sessions = engine.exportSessionState();
+// sessions = [
+//   {
+//     sessionId: '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000',
+//     metadata: {
+//       createdAt: '2025-11-24T10:30:00.000Z',
+//       lastAccess: '2025-11-24T17:15:32.000Z'
+//     },
+//     context: {
+//       n8nApiUrl: 'https://tenant1.n8n.cloud',
+//       n8nApiKey: 'n8n_api_...',
+//       instanceId: 'tenant-123',
+//       metadata: { userId: 'user-456' }
+//     }
+//   }
+// ]
+```
+
+**Key Behaviors:**
+- Exports only non-expired sessions (within sessionTimeout)
+- Detects and warns about duplicate session IDs
+- Logs security event with session count
+- Returns empty array if no active sessions
+
+### N8NMCPEngine.restoreSessionState()
+
+Restores sessions from previously exported state after container restart.
+
+```typescript
+restoreSessionState(sessions: SessionState[]): number
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `sessions`: Array of session state objects from `exportSessionState()`
+
+**Returns:** Number of sessions successfully restored
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+const sessions = await loadFromEncryptedStorage();
+const count = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+console.log(`Restored ${count} sessions`);
+```
+
+**Key Behaviors:**
+- Validates session metadata (timestamps, required fields)
+- Skips expired sessions (age > sessionTimeout)
+- Skips duplicate sessions (idempotent)
+- Respects MAX_SESSIONS limit (100 per container)
+- Recreates transports/servers lazily on first request
+- Logs security events for restore success/failure
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Critical: Encrypt Before Storage
+
+**The exported session state contains plaintext n8n API keys.** You MUST encrypt this data before persisting to disk.
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ NEVER DO THIS
+await fs.writeFile('sessions.json', JSON.stringify(sessions));
+
+// ✅ ALWAYS ENCRYPT
+const encrypted = await encryptSessionData(sessions, encryptionKey);
+await saveToSecureStorage(encrypted);
+```
+
+### Recommended Encryption Approach
+
+```typescript
+import crypto from 'crypto';
+
+/**
+ * Encrypt session data using AES-256-GCM
+ */
+async function encryptSessionData(
+  sessions: SessionState[],
+  encryptionKey: Buffer
+): Promise<string> {
+  const iv = crypto.randomBytes(16);
+  const cipher = crypto.createCipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+
+  const json = JSON.stringify(sessions);
+  const encrypted = Buffer.concat([
+    cipher.update(json, 'utf8'),
+    cipher.final()
+  ]);
+
+  const authTag = cipher.getAuthTag();
+
+  // Return base64: iv:authTag:encrypted
+  return [
+    iv.toString('base64'),
+    authTag.toString('base64'),
+    encrypted.toString('base64')
+  ].join(':');
+}
+
+/**
+ * Decrypt session data
+ */
+async function decryptSessionData(
+  encryptedData: string,
+  encryptionKey: Buffer
+): Promise<SessionState[]> {
+  const [ivB64, authTagB64, encryptedB64] = encryptedData.split(':');
+
+  const iv = Buffer.from(ivB64, 'base64');
+  const authTag = Buffer.from(authTagB64, 'base64');
+  const encrypted = Buffer.from(encryptedB64, 'base64');
+
+  const decipher = crypto.createDecipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+  decipher.setAuthTag(authTag);
+
+  const decrypted = Buffer.concat([
+    decipher.update(encrypted),
+    decipher.final()
+  ]);
+
+  return JSON.parse(decrypted.toString('utf8'));
+}
+```
+
+### Key Management
+
+Store encryption keys securely:
+- **Kubernetes:** Use Kubernetes Secrets with encryption at rest
+- **AWS:** Use AWS Secrets Manager or Parameter Store with KMS
+- **Azure:** Use Azure Key Vault
+- **GCP:** Use Secret Manager
+- **Local Dev:** Use environment variables (NEVER commit to git)
+
+### Security Logging
+
+All session persistence operations are logged with `[SECURITY]` prefix:
+
+```
+[SECURITY] session_export { timestamp, count }
+[SECURITY] session_restore { timestamp, sessionId, instanceId }
+[SECURITY] session_restore_failed { timestamp, sessionId, reason }
+[SECURITY] max_sessions_reached { timestamp, count }
+```
+
+Monitor these logs in production for audit trails and security analysis.

+    }
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('Failed to restore sessions:', error);
+  }
+}
+
+// Shutdown: Export sessions to encrypted storage
+async function shutdown() {

+      sessions,
+      process.env.ENCRYPTION_KEY
+    );
+    await redis.set('mcp:sessions', encrypted, 'EX', 3600); // 1 hour TTL
+    console.log(`Exported ${sessions.length} sessions`);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('Failed to export sessions:', error);
+  }
+
+  await engine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+}
+
+// Handle graceful shutdown
+process.on('SIGTERM', shutdown);
+process.on('SIGINT', shutdown);
+
+// Start server
+await startup();
+app.listen(3000);
+```

+### 3. Docker Compose with Redis
+
+**docker-compose.yml:**
+```yaml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  n8n-mcp:
+    build: .
+    environment:
+      - ENCRYPTION_KEY=${ENCRYPTION_KEY}
+      - REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379
+      - SESSION_TIMEOUT=1800000
+    depends_on:
+      - redis
+    volumes:
+      - ./data:/data
+    deploy:
+      replicas: 2
+      update_config:
+        parallelism: 1
+        delay: 10s
+        order: start-first
+    stop_grace_period: 30s
+
+  redis:
+    image: redis:7-alpine
+    volumes:
+      - redis-data:/data
+    command: redis-server --appendonly yes
+
+volumes:
+  redis-data:
+```
+
+**Application code:**
+```typescript
+import { N8NMCPEngine } from 'n8n-mcp';
+import Redis from 'ioredis';
+
+const redis = new Redis(process.env.REDIS_URL);
+const engine = new N8NMCPEngine();
+
+// Export endpoint (called by preStop hook)
+app.post('/internal/export-sessions', async (req, res) => {
+  try {
+    const sessions = engine.exportSessionState();
+    const encrypted = await encryptSessionData(
+      sessions,
+      Buffer.from(process.env.ENCRYPTION_KEY, 'hex')
+    );
+
+    // Store with hostname as key for per-container tracking
+    await redis.set(
+      `mcp:sessions:${os.hostname()}`,
+      encrypted,
+      'EX',
+      3600
+    );
+
+    res.json({ exported: sessions.length });
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('Export failed:', error);
+    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Export failed' });
+  }
+});
+
+// Restore on startup
+async function startup() {
+  const encrypted = await redis.get(`mcp:sessions:${os.hostname()}`);
+  if (encrypted) {
+    const sessions = await decryptSessionData(
+      encrypted,
+      Buffer.from(process.env.ENCRYPTION_KEY, 'hex')
+    );
+    const count = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+    console.log(`Restored ${count} sessions`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Session Timeout Configuration
+
+Choose appropriate timeout based on use case:
+
+```typescript
+const engine = new N8NMCPEngine({
+  sessionTimeout: 1800000  // 30 minutes (recommended default)
+});
+
+// Development: 5 minutes
+sessionTimeout: 300000
+
+// Production SaaS: 30-60 minutes
+sessionTimeout: 1800000 - 3600000
+
+// Long-running workflows: 2-4 hours
+sessionTimeout: 7200000 - 14400000
+```
+
+### 2. Storage Backend Selection
+
+**Redis (Recommended for Production)**
+- Fast read/write for session data
+- TTL support for automatic cleanup
+- Pub/sub for distributed coordination
+- Atomic operations for consistency
+
+**Database (PostgreSQL/MySQL)**
+- JSONB column for session state
+- Good for audit requirements
+- Slower than Redis
+- Requires periodic cleanup
+
+**S3/Cloud Storage**
+- Good for disaster recovery backups
+- Not suitable for hot session restore
+- High latency
+- Good for long-term session archival
+
+### 3. Monitoring and Alerting
+
+Monitor these metrics:
+
+```typescript
+// Session export metrics
+const sessions = engine.exportSessionState();
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.exported', sessions.length);
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.export_size_kb',
+  JSON.stringify(sessions).length / 1024
+);
+
+// Session restore metrics
+const restored = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.restored', restored);
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.restore_success_rate',
+  restored / sessions.length
+);
+
+// Runtime metrics
+const info = engine.getSessionInfo();
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.active', info.active ? 1 : 0);
+metrics.gauge('mcp.sessions.age_seconds', info.age || 0);
+```
+
+Alert on:
+- Export failures (should be rare)
+- Low restore success rate (<95%)
+- MAX_SESSIONS limit reached
+- High session age (potential leaks)
+
+### 4. Graceful Shutdown Timing
+
+Ensure sufficient time for session export:
+
+```typescript
+// Kubernetes terminationGracePeriodSeconds
+terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30  // 30 seconds minimum
+
+// Docker stop timeout
+docker run --stop-timeout 30 your-image
+
+// Process signal handling
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  console.log('SIGTERM received, starting graceful shutdown...');
+
+  // 1. Stop accepting new requests (5s)
+  await server.close();
+
+  // 2. Wait for in-flight requests (10s)
+  await waitForInFlightRequests(10000);
+
+  // 3. Export sessions (5s)
+  const sessions = engine.exportSessionState();
+  await saveEncryptedSessions(sessions);
+
+  // 4. Cleanup (5s)
+  await engine.shutdown();
+
+  // 5. Exit (5s buffer)
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+```
+
+### 5. Idempotency Handling
+
+Sessions can be restored multiple times safely:
+
+```typescript
+// First restore
+const count1 = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+// count1 = 5
+
+// Second restore (same sessions)
+const count2 = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+// count2 = 0 (all already exist)
+```
+
+This is safe for:
+- Init container retries
+- Manual recovery operations
+- Disaster recovery scenarios
+
+### 6. Multi-Instance Coordination
+
+For multiple container instances:
+
+```typescript
+// Option 1: Per-instance storage (simple)
+const key = `mcp:sessions:${instance.hostname}`;
+
+// Option 2: Centralized with distributed lock (advanced)
+const lock = await acquireLock('mcp:session-export');
+try {
+  const allSessions = await getAllInstanceSessions();
+  await saveToBackup(allSessions);
+} finally {
+  await lock.release();
+}
+```
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Memory Usage
+
+```typescript
+// Each session: ~1-2 KB in memory
+// 100 sessions: ~100-200 KB
+// 1000 sessions: ~1-2 MB
+
+// Export serialized size
+const sessions = engine.exportSessionState();
+const sizeKB = JSON.stringify(sessions).length / 1024;
+console.log(`Export size: ${sizeKB.toFixed(2)} KB`);
+```
+
+### Export/Restore Speed
+
+```typescript
+// Export: O(n) where n = active sessions
+// Typical: 50-100 sessions in <10ms
+
+// Restore: O(n) with validation
+// Typical: 50-100 sessions in 20-50ms
+
+// Factor in encryption:
+// AES-256-GCM: ~1ms per 100 sessions
+```
+
+### MAX_SESSIONS Limit
+
+Hard limit: 100 sessions per container
+
+```typescript
+// Restore respects limit
+const sessions = createSessions(150); // 150 sessions
+const restored = engine.restoreSessionState(sessions);
+// restored = 100 (only first 100 restored)
+```
+
+For >100 sessions per tenant:
+- Deploy multiple containers
+- Use session routing/sharding
+- Implement session affinity
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: No sessions restored
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+Restored 0 sessions
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+1. All sessions expired (age > sessionTimeout)
+2. Invalid date format in metadata
+3. Missing required context fields
+
+**Debug:**
+```typescript
+const sessions = await loadFromEncryptedStorage();
+console.log('Loaded sessions:', sessions.length);
+
+// Check individual sessions
+sessions.forEach((s, i) => {
+  const age = Date.now() - new Date(s.metadata.lastAccess).getTime();
+  console.log(`Session ${i}: age=${age}ms, expired=${age > sessionTimeout}`);
+});
+```
+
+### Issue: Restore fails with "invalid context"
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+[SECURITY] session_restore_failed { sessionId: '...', reason: 'invalid context: ...' }
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+1. Missing n8nApiUrl or n8nApiKey
+2. Invalid URL format
+3. Corrupted session data
+
+**Fix:**
+```typescript
+// Validate before restore
+const valid = sessions.filter(s => {
+  if (!s.context?.n8nApiUrl || !s.context?.n8nApiKey) {
+    console.warn(`Invalid session ${s.sessionId}: missing credentials`);
+    return false;
+  }
+  try {
+    new URL(s.context.n8nApiUrl); // Validate URL
+    return true;
+  } catch {
+    console.warn(`Invalid session ${s.sessionId}: malformed URL`);
+    return false;
+  }
+});
+
+const count = engine.restoreSessionState(valid);
+```
+
+### Issue: MAX_SESSIONS limit hit
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+Reached MAX_SESSIONS limit (100), skipping remaining sessions
+```
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Scale horizontally (more containers)
+2. Implement session sharding
+3. Reduce sessionTimeout
+4. Clean up inactive sessions
+
+```typescript
+// Pre-filter by activity
+const recentSessions = sessions.filter(s => {
+  const age = Date.now() - new Date(s.metadata.lastAccess).getTime();
+  return age < 600000; // Only restore sessions active in last 10 min
+});
+
+const count = engine.restoreSessionState(recentSessions);
+```
+
+### Issue: Duplicate session IDs
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+Duplicate sessionId detected during export: 550e8400-...
+```
+
+**Cause:** Bug in session management logic
+
+**Fix:** This is a warning, not an error. The duplicate is automatically skipped. If persistent, investigate session creation logic.
+
+### Issue: High memory usage after restore
+
+**Symptoms:** Container OOM after restoring many sessions
+
+**Cause:** Too many sessions for container resources
+
+**Solution:**
+```typescript
+// Restore in batches
+async function restoreInBatches(sessions: SessionState[], batchSize = 25) {
+  let totalRestored = 0;
+
+  for (let i = 0; i < sessions.length; i += batchSize) {
+    const batch = sessions.slice(i, i + batchSize);
+    const count = engine.restoreSessionState(batch);
+    totalRestored += count;
+
+    // Wait for GC between batches
+    await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 100));
+  }
+
+  return totalRestored;
+}
+```

+# Type Structure Validation
+
+## Overview
+
+Type Structure Validation is an automatic validation system that ensures complex n8n node configurations conform to their expected data structures. Implemented as part of the n8n-mcp validation system, it provides zero-configuration validation for special n8n types that have complex nested structures.
+
+**Status:** Production (v2.22.21+)
+**Performance:** 100% pass rate on 776 real-world validations
+**Speed:** 0.01ms average validation time (500x faster than target)
+
+The system automatically validates node configurations without requiring any additional setup or configuration from users or AI assistants.
+
+## Supported Types
+
+The validation system supports four special n8n types that have complex structures:
+
+### 1. **filter** (FilterValue)
+Complex filtering conditions with boolean operators, comparison operations, and nested logic.
+
+**Structure:**
+- `combinator`: "and" | "or" - How conditions are combined
+- `conditions`: Array of filter conditions
+  - Each condition has: `leftValue`, `operator` (type + operation), `rightValue`
+  - Supports 40+ operations: equals, contains, exists, notExists, gt, lt, regex, etc.
+
+**Example Usage:** IF node, Switch node condition filtering
+
+### 2. **resourceMapper** (ResourceMapperValue)
+Data mapping configuration for transforming data between different formats.
+
+**Structure:**
+- `mappingMode`: "defineBelow" | "autoMapInputData" | "mapManually"
+- `value`: Field mappings or expressions
+- `matchingColumns`: Column matching configuration
+- `schema`: Target schema definition
+
+**Example Usage:** Google Sheets node, Airtable node data mapping
+
+### 3. **assignmentCollection** (AssignmentCollectionValue)
+Variable assignments for setting multiple values at once.
+
+**Structure:**
+- `assignments`: Array of name-value pairs
+  - Each assignment has: `name`, `value`, `type`
+
+**Example Usage:** Set node, Code node variable assignments
+
+### 4. **resourceLocator** (INodeParameterResourceLocator)
+Resource selection with multiple lookup modes (ID, name, URL, etc.).
+
+**Structure:**
+- `mode`: "id" | "list" | "url" | "name"
+- `value`: Resource identifier (string, number, or expression)
+- `cachedResultName`: Optional cached display name
+- `cachedResultUrl`: Optional cached URL
+
+**Example Usage:** Google Sheets spreadsheet selection, Slack channel selection
+
+## Performance & Results
+
+The validation system was tested against real-world n8n.io workflow templates:
+
+| Metric | Result |
+|--------|--------|
+| **Templates Tested** | 91 (top by popularity) |
+| **Nodes Validated** | 616 nodes with special types |
+| **Total Validations** | 776 property validations |
+| **Pass Rate** | 100.00% (776/776) |
+| **False Positive Rate** | 0.00% |
+| **Average Time** | 0.01ms per validation |
+| **Max Time** | 1.00ms per validation |
+| **Performance vs Target** | 500x faster than 50ms target |
+
+### Type-Specific Results
+
+- `filter`: 93/93 passed (100.00%)
+- `resourceMapper`: 69/69 passed (100.00%)
+- `assignmentCollection`: 213/213 passed (100.00%)
+- `resourceLocator`: 401/401 passed (100.00%)
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Automatic Integration
+
+Structure validation is automatically applied during node configuration validation. When you call `validate_node_operation` or `validate_node_minimal`, the system:
+
+1. **Identifies Special Types**: Detects properties that use filter, resourceMapper, assignmentCollection, or resourceLocator types
+2. **Validates Structure**: Checks that the configuration matches the expected structure for that type
+3. **Validates Operations**: For filter types, validates that operations are supported for the data type
+4. **Provides Context**: Returns specific error messages with property paths and fix suggestions
+
+### Validation Flow
+
+```
+User/AI provides node config
+        ↓
+validate_node_operation (MCP tool)
+        ↓
+EnhancedConfigValidator.validateWithMode()
+        ↓
+validateSpecialTypeStructures() ← Automatic structure validation
+        ↓
+TypeStructureService.validateStructure()
+        ↓
+Returns validation result with errors/warnings/suggestions
+```
+
+### Edge Cases Handled
+
+**1. Credential-Provided Fields**
+- Fields like Google Sheets `sheetId` that come from n8n credentials at runtime are excluded from validation
+- No false positives for fields that aren't in the configuration
+
+**2. Filter Operations**
+- Universal operations (`exists`, `notExists`, `isNotEmpty`) work across all data types
+- Type-specific operations validated (e.g., `regex` only for strings, `gt`/`lt` only for numbers)
+
+**3. Node-Specific Logic**
+- Custom validation logic for specific nodes (Google Sheets, Slack, etc.)
+- Context-aware error messages that understand the node's operation
+
+## Example Validation Error
+
+### Invalid Filter Structure
+
+**Configuration:**
+```json
+{
+  "conditions": {
+    "combinator": "and",
+    "conditions": [
+      {
+        "leftValue": "={{ $json.status }}",
+        "rightValue": "active",
+        "operator": {
+          "type": "string",
+          "operation": "invalidOperation"  // ❌ Not a valid operation
+        }
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Validation Error:**
+```json
+{
+  "valid": false,
+  "errors": [
+    {
+      "type": "invalid_structure",
+      "property": "conditions.conditions[0].operator.operation",
+      "message": "Unsupported operation 'invalidOperation' for type 'string'",
+      "suggestion": "Valid operations for string: equals, notEquals, contains, notContains, startsWith, endsWith, regex, exists, notExists, isNotEmpty"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```

+## Automatic Connection Reference Updates
+
+When you rename a node using **updateNode**, all connection references throughout the workflow are automatically updated. Both the connection source keys and target references are updated for all connection types (main, error, ai_tool, ai_languageModel, ai_memory, etc.) and all branch configurations (IF node branches, Switch node cases, error outputs).
+
+### Basic Example
+\`\`\`javascript
+// Rename a node - connections update automatically
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_123",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeId: "node_abc",
+    updates: { name: "Data Processor" }
+  }]
+});
+// All incoming and outgoing connections now reference "Data Processor"
+\`\`\`
+
+### Multi-Output Node Example
+\`\`\`javascript
+// Rename nodes in a branching workflow
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "workflow_id",
+  operations: [
+    {
+      type: "updateNode",
+      nodeId: "if_node_id",
+      updates: { name: "Value Checker" }
+    },
+    {
+      type: "updateNode",
+      nodeId: "error_node_id",
+      updates: { name: "Error Handler" }
+    }
+  ]
+});
+// IF node branches and error connections automatically updated
+\`\`\`
+
+### Name Collision Protection
+Attempting to rename a node to an existing name returns a clear error:
+\`\`\`
+Cannot rename node "Old Name" to "New Name": A node with that name already exists (id: abc123...).
+Please choose a different name.
+\`\`\`
+
+### Usage Notes
+- Simply rename nodes with updateNode - no manual connection operations needed
+- Multiple renames in one call work atomically
+- Can rename a node and add/remove connections using the new name in the same batch
+- Use \`validateOnly: true\` to preview effects before applying
+
+## Removing Properties with undefined
+
+To remove a property from a node, set its value to \`undefined\` in the updates object. This is essential when migrating from deprecated properties or cleaning up optional configuration fields.
+
+### Why Use undefined?
+- **Property removal vs. null**: Setting a property to \`undefined\` removes it completely from the node object, while \`null\` sets the property to a null value
+- **Validation constraints**: Some properties are mutually exclusive (e.g., \`continueOnFail\` and \`onError\`). Simply setting one without removing the other will fail validation
+- **Deprecated property migration**: When n8n deprecates properties, you must remove the old property before the new one will work
+
+### Basic Property Removal
+\`\`\`javascript
+// Remove error handling configuration
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_123",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "HTTP Request",
+    updates: { onError: undefined }
+  }]
+});
+
+// Remove disabled flag
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_456",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeId: "node_abc",
+    updates: { disabled: undefined }
+  }]
+});
+\`\`\`
+
+### Nested Property Removal
+Use dot notation to remove nested properties:
+\`\`\`javascript
+// Remove nested parameter
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_789",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "API Request",
+    updates: { "parameters.authentication": undefined }
+  }]
+});
+
+// Remove entire array property
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_012",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "HTTP Request",
+    updates: { "parameters.headers": undefined }
+  }]
+});
+\`\`\`
+
+### Migrating from Deprecated Properties
+Common scenario: replacing \`continueOnFail\` with \`onError\`:
+\`\`\`javascript
+// WRONG: Setting only the new property leaves the old one
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_123",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "HTTP Request",
+    updates: { onError: "continueErrorOutput" }
+  }]
+});
+// Error: continueOnFail and onError are mutually exclusive
+
+// CORRECT: Remove the old property first
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_123",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "HTTP Request",
+    updates: {
+      continueOnFail: undefined,
+      onError: "continueErrorOutput"
+    }
+  }]
+});
+\`\`\`
+
+### Batch Property Removal
+Remove multiple properties in one operation:
+\`\`\`javascript
+n8n_update_partial_workflow({
+  id: "wf_345",
+  operations: [{
+    type: "updateNode",
+    nodeName: "Data Processor",
+    updates: {
+      continueOnFail: undefined,
+      alwaysOutputData: undefined,
+      "parameters.legacy_option": undefined
+    }
+  }]
+});
+\`\`\`

 ## Standard Workflow Pattern
 
+⚠️ **CRITICAL**: Always call get_node() with detail='standard' FIRST before configuring any node!
+
 1. **Find** the node you need:
    - search_nodes({query: "slack"}) - Search by keyword
-   - list_nodes({category: "communication"}) - List by category
-   - list_ai_tools() - List AI-capable nodes
+   - search_nodes({query: "communication"}) - Search by category name
+   - search_nodes({query: "AI langchain"}) - Search for AI-capable nodes
 
-2. **Configure** the node:
-   - get_node_essentials("nodes-base.slack") - Get essential properties only (5KB)
-   - get_node_info("nodes-base.slack") - Get complete schema (100KB+)
-   - search_node_properties("nodes-base.slack", "auth") - Find specific properties
+2. **Configure** the node (ALWAYS START WITH STANDARD DETAIL):
+   - ✅ get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", detail: "standard"}) - Get essential properties FIRST (~1-2KB, shows required fields)
+   - get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", detail: "full"}) - Get complete schema only if standard insufficient (~100KB+)
+   - get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", mode: "docs"}) - Get readable markdown documentation
+   - get_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", mode: "search_properties", propertyQuery: "auth"}) - Find specific properties
 
 3. **Validate** before deployment:
-   - validate_node_minimal("nodes-base.slack", config) - Check required fields
-   - validate_node_operation("nodes-base.slack", config) - Full validation with fixes
-   - validate_workflow(workflow) - Validate entire workflow
+   - validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {...}, mode: "minimal"}) - Quick required fields check
+   - validate_node({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", config: {...}}) - Full validation with errors/warnings/suggestions

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