* fix: override isolated-vm with empty stub to fix CI build

isolated-vm 6.0.2 (transitive dep from n8n-nodes-base) fails to compile
natively on CI (Node 20 + Linux) due to V8 API changes. This package is
not used at runtime by n8n-mcp - we only read node metadata, not execute
nodes. Override with empty-npm-package to avoid the native compilation.

* fix: skip native compilation in fresh install CI check

The fresh install test simulates `npm install n8n-mcp` from scratch,
so package.json overrides don't apply. Use --ignore-scripts to skip
isolated-vm native compilation since n8n-mcp only reads node metadata
and doesn't execute n8n nodes at runtime.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [2.36.0] - 2026-03-07
+
+### Added
+
+- **Connection validation: detect broken/malformed workflow connections** (Issue #620):
+  - Unknown output keys (`UNKNOWN_CONNECTION_KEY`): Flags invalid connection keys like `"0"`, `"1"`, `"output"` with fix suggestions (e.g., "use main[1] instead" for numeric keys)
+  - Invalid type field (`INVALID_CONNECTION_TYPE`): Detects invalid `type` values in connection targets (e.g., `"0"` instead of `"main"`)
+  - Output index bounds checking (`OUTPUT_INDEX_OUT_OF_BOUNDS`): Catches connections using output indices beyond what a node supports, with awareness of `onError: 'continueErrorOutput'`, Switch rules, and IF/Filter nodes
+  - Input index bounds checking (`INPUT_INDEX_OUT_OF_BOUNDS`): Validates target input indices against known node input counts (Merge=2, triggers=0, others=1)
+  - BFS-based trigger reachability analysis: Replaces simple orphan detection with proper graph traversal from trigger nodes, flagging unreachable subgraphs
+  - Flexible `WorkflowConnection` interface: Changed from explicit `main?/error?/ai_tool?` to `[outputType: string]` for accurate validation of all connection types

+## [2.35.5] - 2026-02-22
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Comprehensive parameter type coercion for Claude Desktop / Claude.ai** (Issue #605): Expanded the v2.35.4 fix to handle ALL type mismatches, not just stringified objects/arrays. Testing revealed 6/9 tools still failing in Claude Desktop after the initial fix.
+  - Extended `coerceStringifiedJsonParams()` to coerce every schema type: `string→number`, `string→boolean`, `number→string`, `boolean→string` (in addition to existing `string→object` and `string→array`)
+  - Added top-level safeguard to parse the entire `args` object if it arrives as a JSON string
+  - Added `[Diagnostic]` section to error responses showing received argument types, enabling users to report exactly what their MCP client sends
+  - Added 9 new unit tests (24 total) covering number, boolean, and number-to-string coercion

+## [2.35.4] - 2026-02-20
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Defensive JSON.parse for stringified object/array parameters** (Issue #605): Claude Desktop 1.1.3189 serializes JSON object/array MCP parameters as strings, causing ZodError failures for ~60% of tools that accept nested parameters
+  - Added schema-driven `coerceStringifiedJsonParams()` in the central `CallToolRequestSchema` handler
+  - Automatically detects string values where the tool's `inputSchema` expects `object` or `array`, and parses them back
+  - Safe: prefix check before parsing, type verification after, try/catch preserves original on failure
+  - No-op for correct clients: native objects pass through unchanged
+  - Affects 9 tools with object/array params: `validate_node`, `validate_workflow`, `n8n_create_workflow`, `n8n_update_full_workflow`, `n8n_update_partial_workflow`, `n8n_validate_workflow`, `n8n_autofix_workflow`, `n8n_test_workflow`, `n8n_executions`
+  - Added 15 unit tests covering coercion, no-op, safety, and end-to-end scenarios

+- **Fixed node loader for langchain package**: Adapted node loader to bypass restricted package.json `exports` field in @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain >=2.9.0, resolving node files via absolute paths instead of `require.resolve()`
+- **Fixed community doc generation for cloud LLMs**: Added `N8N_MCP_LLM_API_KEY`/`OPENAI_API_KEY` env var support, switched to `max_completion_tokens`, and auto-omit `temperature` for cloud API endpoints
+- Rebuilt node database with 1,236 nodes (673 from n8n-nodes-base, 133 from @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain, 430 community)
