+
+You are a deployment engineer specializing in automated deployments and container orchestration. Your expertise spans CI/CD pipelines, containerization, cloud deployments, and infrastructure automation.
+
+## Core Responsibilities
+
+You will create production-ready deployment configurations that emphasize automation, reliability, and maintainability. Your solutions must follow infrastructure as code principles and include comprehensive deployment strategies.
+
+## Technical Expertise
+
+### CI/CD Pipelines
+- Design GitHub Actions workflows with matrix builds, caching, and artifact management
+- Implement GitLab CI pipelines with proper stages and dependencies
+- Configure Jenkins pipelines with shared libraries and parallel execution
+- Set up automated testing, security scanning, and quality gates
+- Implement semantic versioning and automated release management
+
+### Container Engineering
+- Write multi-stage Dockerfiles optimized for size and security
+- Implement proper layer caching and build optimization
+- Configure container security scanning and vulnerability management
+- Design docker-compose configurations for local development
+- Implement container registry strategies with proper tagging
+
+### Kubernetes Orchestration
+- Create deployments with proper resource limits and requests
+- Configure services, ingresses, and network policies
+- Implement ConfigMaps and Secrets management
+- Design horizontal pod autoscaling and cluster autoscaling
+- Set up health checks, readiness probes, and liveness probes
+
+### Infrastructure as Code
+- Write Terraform modules for cloud resources
+- Design CloudFormation templates with proper parameters
+- Implement state management and backend configuration
+- Create reusable infrastructure components
+- Design multi-environment deployment strategies
+
+## Operational Approach
+
+1. **Automation First**: Every deployment step must be automated. Manual interventions should only be required for approval gates.
+
+2. **Environment Parity**: Maintain consistency across development, staging, and production environments using configuration management.
+
+3. **Fast Feedback**: Design pipelines that fail fast and provide clear error messages. Run quick checks before expensive operations.
+
+4. **Immutable Infrastructure**: Treat servers and containers as disposable. Never modify running infrastructure - always replace.
+
+5. **Zero-Downtime Deployments**: Implement blue-green deployments, rolling updates, or canary releases based on requirements.
+
+## Output Requirements
+
+You will provide:
+
+### CI/CD Pipeline Configuration
+- Complete pipeline file with all stages defined
+- Build, test, security scan, and deployment stages
+- Environment-specific deployment configurations
+- Secret management and variable handling
+- Artifact storage and versioning strategy
+
+### Container Configuration

+---
+
+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.

+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [2.14.7] - 2025-10-02
+
+### Fixed
+- **Issue #248: Settings Validation Error** - Fixed "settings must NOT have additional properties" API errors
+  - Added `callerPolicy` property to `workflowSettingsSchema` to support valid n8n workflow setting
+  - Implemented whitelist-based settings filtering in `cleanWorkflowForUpdate()` to prevent API errors
+  - Filter removes UI-only properties (e.g., `timeSavedPerExecution`) that cause validation failures
+  - Only whitelisted properties are sent to n8n API: `executionOrder`, `timezone`, `saveDataErrorExecution`, `saveDataSuccessExecution`, `saveManualExecutions`, `saveExecutionProgress`, `executionTimeout`, `errorWorkflow`, `callerPolicy`
+  - Resolves workflow update failures caused by workflows fetched from n8n containing non-standard properties
+  - Added 6 comprehensive unit tests covering settings filtering scenarios
+
+- **Issue #249: Misleading AddConnection Error Messages** - Enhanced parameter validation with helpful error messages
+  - Detect common parameter mistakes: using `sourceNodeId`/`targetNodeId` instead of correct `source`/`target`
+  - Improved error messages include:
+    - Identification of wrong parameter names with correction guidance
+    - Examples of correct usage
+    - List of available nodes when source/target not found
+  - Error messages now actionable instead of cryptic (was: "Source node not found: undefined")
+  - Added 8 comprehensive unit tests for parameter validation scenarios
+
+- **P0-R1: Universal Node Type Normalization** - Eliminates 80% of validation errors
+  - Implemented `NodeTypeNormalizer` utility for consistent node type handling
+  - Automatically converts short forms to full forms (e.g., `nodes-base.webhook` → `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`)
+  - Applied normalization across all workflow validation entry points
+  - Updated workflow validator, handlers, and repository for universal normalization
+  - Fixed test expectations to match normalized node type format
+  - Resolves the single largest source of validation errors in production
+
+### Added
+- `NodeTypeNormalizer` utility class for universal node type normalization
+  - `normalizeToFullForm()` - Convert any node type variation to canonical form
+  - `normalizeWithDetails()` - Get normalization result with metadata
+  - `normalizeWorkflowNodeTypes()` - Batch normalize all nodes in a workflow
+- Settings whitelist filtering in `cleanWorkflowForUpdate()` with comprehensive null-safety
+- Enhanced `validateAddConnection()` with proactive parameter validation
+- 14 new unit tests for issues #248 and #249 fixes
+
+### Changed
+- Node repository now uses `NodeTypeNormalizer` for all lookups
+- Workflow validation applies normalization before structure checks
+- Workflow diff engine validates connection parameters before processing
+- Settings filtering applied to all workflow update operations
+
+### Performance
+- No performance impact - normalization adds <1ms overhead per workflow
+- Settings filtering is O(9) - negligible impact
+
+### Test Coverage
+- n8n-validation tests: 73/73 passing (100% coverage)
+- workflow-diff-engine tests: 110/110 passing (89.72% coverage)
+- Total: 183 tests passing
+
+### Impact
+- **Issue #248**: Eliminates ALL settings validation errors for workflows with non-standard properties
+- **Issue #249**: Provides clear, actionable error messages reducing user frustration
+- **P0-R1**: Reduces validation error rate by 80% (addresses 4,800+ weekly errors)
+- Combined impact: Expected overall error rate reduction from 5-10% to <2%
+
+## [2.14.6] - 2025-10-01
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Webhook Error Messages**: Replaced generic "Please try again later or contact support" messages with actionable guidance
+  - Error messages now extract execution ID and workflow ID from failed webhook triggers
+  - Guide users to use `n8n_get_execution({id: executionId, mode: 'preview'})` for efficient debugging
+  - Format: "Workflow {workflowId} execution {executionId} failed. Use n8n_get_execution({id: '{executionId}', mode: 'preview'}) to investigate the error."
+  - When no execution ID available: "Workflow failed to execute. Use n8n_list_executions to find recent executions, then n8n_get_execution with mode='preview' to investigate."
+
+### Added
+- New error formatting functions in `n8n-errors.ts`:
+  - `formatExecutionError()` - Creates execution-specific error messages with debugging guidance
+  - `formatNoExecutionError()` - Provides guidance when execution context unavailable
+- Enhanced `McpToolResponse` type with optional `executionId` and `workflowId` fields
+- Error handling documentation in `n8n-trigger-webhook-workflow` tool docs
+- 30 new comprehensive tests for error message formatting and webhook error handling
+
+### Changed
+- `handleTriggerWebhookWorkflow` now extracts execution context from error responses
+- `getUserFriendlyErrorMessage` returns actual server error messages instead of generic text
+- Tool documentation type enhanced with optional `errorHandling` field
+
+### Fixed
+- Test expectations updated to match new error message format (handlers-workflow-diff.test.ts)
+
+### Benefits
+- **Fast debugging**: Preview mode executes in <50ms (vs seconds for full data)
+- **Efficient**: Uses ~500 tokens (vs 50K+ tokens for full execution data)
+- **Safe**: No timeout or token limit risks
+- **Actionable**: Clear next steps for users to investigate failures
+
+### Impact
+- Eliminates unhelpful "contact support" messages
+- Provides specific, actionable debugging guidance
+- Reduces debugging time by directing users to efficient tools
+- 100% backward compatible - only improves error messages
+
+## [2.14.5] - 2025-09-30
+
+### Added
+- **Intelligent Execution Data Filtering**: Major enhancement to `n8n_get_execution` tool to handle large datasets without exceeding token limits
+  - **Preview Mode**: Shows data structure, counts, and size estimates without actual data (~500 tokens)
+  - **Summary Mode**: Returns 2 sample items per node (safe default, ~2-5K tokens)
+  - **Filtered Mode**: Granular control with node filtering and custom item limits
+  - **Full Mode**: Complete data retrieval (explicit opt-in)
+  - Smart recommendations based on data size (guides optimal retrieval strategy)
+  - Structure-only mode (`itemsLimit: 0`) to see data schema without values
+  - Node-specific filtering with `nodeNames` parameter
+  - Input data inclusion option for debugging transformations
+  - Automatic size estimation and token consumption guidance
+
+### Enhanced
+- `n8n_get_execution` tool with new parameters:
+  - `mode`: 'preview' | 'summary' | 'filtered' | 'full'
+  - `nodeNames`: Filter to specific nodes
+  - `itemsLimit`: Control items per node (0=structure, -1=unlimited, default=2)
+  - `includeInputData`: Include input data for debugging
+  - Legacy `includeData` parameter mapped to new modes for backward compatibility
+- Tool documentation with comprehensive examples and best practices
+- Type system with new interfaces: `ExecutionMode`, `ExecutionPreview`, `ExecutionFilterOptions`, `FilteredExecutionResponse`
+
+### Technical Improvements
+- New `ExecutionProcessor` service with intelligent filtering logic
+- Smart data truncation with metadata (`hasMoreData`, `truncated` flags)
+- Validation for `itemsLimit` (capped at 1000, negative values default to 2)
+- Error message extraction helper for consistent error handling
+- Constants-based thresholds for easy tuning (20/50/100KB limits)
+- 33 comprehensive unit tests with 78% coverage
+- Null-safe data access throughout
+
+### Performance
+- Preview mode: <50ms (no data, just structure)
+- Summary mode: <200ms (2 items per node)
+- Filtered mode: 50-500ms (depends on filters)
+- Size estimation within 10-20% accuracy
+
+### Impact
+- Solves token limit issues when inspecting large workflow executions
+- Enables AI agents to understand execution data without overwhelming responses
+- Reduces token usage by 80-95% for large datasets (50+ items)
+- Maintains 100% backward compatibility with existing integrations
+- Recommended workflow: preview → recommendation → filtered/summary
+
+### Fixed
+- Preview mode bug: Fixed API data fetching logic to ensure preview mode retrieves execution data for structure analysis and recommendation generation
+  - Changed `fetchFullData` condition in handlers-n8n-manager.ts to include preview mode
+  - Preview mode now correctly returns structure, item counts, and size estimates
+  - Recommendations are now accurate and prevent token overflow issues
+
+### Migration Guide
+- **No breaking changes**: Existing `n8n_get_execution` calls work unchanged
+- New recommended workflow:
+  1. Call with `mode: 'preview'` to assess data size
+  2. Follow `recommendation.suggestedMode` from preview
+  3. Use `mode: 'filtered'` with `itemsLimit` for precise control
+- Legacy `includeData: true` now maps to `mode: 'summary'` (safer default)
+
+## [2.14.4] - 2025-09-30
+
+### Added
+- **Workflow Cleanup Operations**: Two new operations for `n8n_update_partial_workflow`
+  - `cleanStaleConnections`: Automatically removes connections referencing non-existent nodes
+  - `replaceConnections`: Replace entire connections object in a single operation
+- **Graceful Error Handling**: Enhanced `removeConnection` with `ignoreErrors` flag
+- **Best-Effort Mode**: New `continueOnError` mode for `WorkflowDiffRequest`
+  - Apply valid operations even if some fail
+  - Returns detailed results with `applied` and `failed` operation indices
+  - Maintains atomic mode as default for safety
+
+### Enhanced
+- Tool documentation for workflow cleanup scenarios
+- Type system with new operation interfaces
+- 15 new tests covering all new features
+
+### Impact
+- Reduces broken workflow fix time from 10-15 minutes to 30 seconds
+- Token efficiency: `cleanStaleConnections` is 1 operation vs 10+ manual operations
+- 100% backwards compatibility maintained
+
+## [2.14.3] - 2025-09-30

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

-2. **Discovery Phase** - Find the right nodes:
+2. **Template Discovery Phase** 
+   - `search_templates_by_metadata({complexity: "simple"})` - Find skill-appropriate templates
+   - `get_templates_for_task('webhook_processing')` - Get curated templates by task
+   - `search_templates('slack notification')` - Text search for specific needs. Start by quickly searching with "id" and "name" to find the template you are looking for, only then dive deeper into the template details adding "description" to your search query.
+   - `list_node_templates(['n8n-nodes-base.slack'])` - Find templates using specific nodes
+   
+   **Template filtering strategies**:
+   - **For beginners**: `complexity: "simple"` and `maxSetupMinutes: 30`
+   - **By role**: `targetAudience: "marketers"` or `"developers"` or `"analysts"`
+   - **By time**: `maxSetupMinutes: 15` for quick wins
+   - **By service**: `requiredService: "openai"` to find compatible templates
+
+3. **Discovery Phase** - Find the right nodes (if no suitable template):
    - Think deeply about user request and the logic you are going to build to fulfill it. Ask follow-up questions to clarify the user's intent, if something is unclear. Then, proceed with the rest of your instructions.
    - `search_nodes({query: 'keyword'})` - Search by functionality
    - `list_nodes({category: 'trigger'})` - Browse by category

    - `get_node_for_task('send_email')` - Get pre-configured templates
    - `get_node_documentation(nodeType)` - Human-readable docs when needed

    - Connect nodes with proper structure

 ## 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
 ```

+# Docker Usage Guide for n8n-mcp
+
+## Running in HTTP Mode
+
+The n8n-mcp Docker container can be run in HTTP mode using several methods:
+
+### Method 1: Using Environment Variables (Recommended)
+
+```bash
+docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
+  --name n8n-mcp-server \
+  -e MCP_MODE=http \
+  -e AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-here \
+  ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+### Method 2: Using docker-compose
+
+```bash
+# Create a .env file
+cat > .env << EOF
+MCP_MODE=http
+AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-here
+PORT=3000
+EOF
+
+# Run with docker-compose
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+### Method 3: Using a Configuration File
+
+Create a `config.json` file:
+```json
+{
+  "MCP_MODE": "http",
+  "AUTH_TOKEN": "your-secure-token-here",
+  "PORT": "3000",
+  "LOG_LEVEL": "info"
+}
+```
+
+Run with the config file:
+```bash
+docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
+  --name n8n-mcp-server \
+  -v $(pwd)/config.json:/app/config.json:ro \
+  ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+### Method 4: Using the n8n-mcp serve Command
+
+```bash
+docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
+  --name n8n-mcp-server \
+  -e AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-here \
+  ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest \
+  n8n-mcp serve
+```
+
+## Important Notes
+
+1. **AUTH_TOKEN is required** for HTTP mode. Generate a secure token:
+   ```bash
+   openssl rand -base64 32
+   ```
+
+2. **Environment variables take precedence** over config file values
+
+3. **Default mode is stdio** if MCP_MODE is not specified
+
+4. **Health check endpoint** is available at `http://localhost:3000/health`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Container exits immediately
+- Check logs: `docker logs n8n-mcp-server`
+- Ensure AUTH_TOKEN is set for HTTP mode
+
+### "n8n-mcp: not found" error
+- This has been fixed in the latest version
+- Use the full command: `node /app/dist/mcp/index.js` as a workaround
+
+### Config file not working
+- Ensure the file is valid JSON
+- Mount as read-only: `-v $(pwd)/config.json:/app/config.json:ro`
+- Check that the config parser is present: `docker exec n8n-mcp-server ls -la /app/docker/`

+# Automated Release Process
+
+This document describes the automated release system for n8n-mcp, which handles version detection, changelog parsing, and multi-artifact publishing.
+
+## Overview
+
+The automated release system is triggered when the version in `package.json` is updated and pushed to the main branch. It handles:
+
+- 🏷️ **GitHub Releases**: Creates releases with changelog content
+- 📦 **NPM Publishing**: Publishes optimized runtime package
+- 🐳 **Docker Images**: Builds and pushes multi-platform images
+- 📚 **Documentation**: Updates version badges automatically
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### For Maintainers
+
+Use the prepared release script for a guided experience:
+
+```bash
+npm run prepare:release
+```
+
+This script will:
+1. Prompt for the new version
+2. Update `package.json` and `package.runtime.json`
+3. Update the changelog
+4. Run tests and build
+5. Create a git commit
+6. Optionally push to trigger the release
+
+### Manual Process
+
+1. **Update the version**:
+   ```bash
+   # Edit package.json version field
+   vim package.json
+   
+   # Sync to runtime package
+   npm run sync:runtime-version
+   ```
+
+2. **Update the changelog**:
+   ```bash
+   # Edit docs/CHANGELOG.md
+   vim docs/CHANGELOG.md
+   ```
+
+3. **Test and commit**:
+   ```bash
+   # Ensure everything works
+   npm test
+   npm run build
+   npm run rebuild
+   
+   # Commit changes
+   git add package.json package.runtime.json docs/CHANGELOG.md
+   git commit -m "chore: release vX.Y.Z"
+   git push
+   ```
+
+## Workflow Details
+
+### Version Detection
+
+The workflow monitors pushes to the main branch and detects when `package.json` version changes:
+
+```yaml
+paths:
+  - 'package.json'
+  - 'package.runtime.json'
+```
+
+### Changelog Parsing
+
+Automatically extracts release notes from `docs/CHANGELOG.md` using the version header format:
+
+```markdown
+## [2.10.0] - 2025-08-02
+
+### Added
+- New feature descriptions
+
+### Changed
+- Changed feature descriptions
+
+### Fixed
+- Bug fix descriptions
+```
+
+### Release Artifacts

+4. Add as `NPM_TOKEN` secret in GitHub
+
+## Testing
+
+### Test Release Automation
+
+Validate the release system without triggering a release:
+
+```bash
+npm run test:release-automation
+```
+
+This checks:
+- ✅ File existence and structure
+- ✅ Version detection logic
+- ✅ Changelog parsing
+- ✅ Build process
+- ✅ NPM package preparation
+- ✅ Docker configuration
+- ✅ Workflow syntax
+- ✅ Environment setup
+
+### Local Testing

+
+# Test changelog parsing
+node scripts/test-release-automation.js
+
+# Test npm package preparation
+npm run prepare:publish
+
+# Test Docker build
+docker build -t test-image .
+```
+

+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### NPM Publishing Fails
+```
+Error: 401 Unauthorized
+```
+**Solution**: Check NPM_TOKEN secret is valid and has publishing permissions.
+
+#### Docker Build Fails
+```
+Error: failed to solve: could not read from registry
+```
+**Solution**: Check GitHub Container Registry permissions and GITHUB_TOKEN.
+
+#### Changelog Parsing Fails
+```
+No changelog entries found for version X.Y.Z
+```
+**Solution**: Ensure changelog follows the correct format:
+```markdown
+## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
+```
+
+#### Version Detection Fails
+```
+Version not incremented
+```
+**Solution**: Ensure new version is greater than the previous version.
+
+### Recovery Steps
+
+#### Failed NPM Publish
+1. Check if version was already published
+2. If not, manually publish:
+   ```bash
+   npm run prepare:publish
+   cd npm-publish-temp
+   npm publish
+   ```
+
+#### Failed Docker Build
+1. Build locally to test:
+   ```bash
+   docker build -t test-build .
+   ```
+2. Re-trigger workflow or push a fix
+
+#### Incomplete Release
+1. Delete the created tag if needed:
+   ```bash
+   git tag -d vX.Y.Z
+   git push --delete origin vX.Y.Z
+   ```
+2. Fix issues and push again
+
+## Security
+
+### Secrets Management
+- NPM_TOKEN has limited scope (publish only)
+- GITHUB_TOKEN has automatic scoping
+- No secrets are logged or exposed
+
+### Package Security
+- Runtime package excludes development dependencies
+- No build tools or test frameworks in published package
+- Minimal attack surface (~50MB vs 1GB+)
+
+### Docker Security
+- Multi-stage builds
+- Non-root user execution
+- Minimal base images
+- Security scanning enabled

+## [2.14.4] - 2025-09-30
+
+### Added
+- **Workflow Cleanup Operations**: Two new operations for `n8n_update_partial_workflow` to handle broken workflow recovery
+  - `cleanStaleConnections`: Automatically removes all connections referencing non-existent nodes
+    - Essential after node renames or deletions that leave dangling connection references
+    - Supports `dryRun: true` mode to preview what would be removed
+    - Removes both source and target stale connections
+  - `replaceConnections`: Replace entire connections object in a single operation
+    - Faster than crafting many individual connection operations
+    - Useful for bulk connection rewiring
+
+- **Graceful Error Handling for Connection Operations**: Enhanced `removeConnection` operation
+  - New `ignoreErrors` flag: When `true`, operation succeeds even if connection doesn't exist
+  - Perfect for cleanup scenarios where you're not sure if connections exist
+  - Maintains backwards compatibility (defaults to `false` for strict validation)
+
+- **Best-Effort Mode**: New `continueOnError` mode for `WorkflowDiffRequest`
+  - Apply valid operations even if some fail
+  - Returns detailed results with `applied` and `failed` operation indices
+  - Breaks atomic guarantees intentionally for bulk cleanup scenarios
+  - Maintains atomic mode as default for safety
+
+### Enhanced
+- **Tool Documentation**: Updated `n8n_update_partial_workflow` documentation
+  - Added examples for cleanup scenarios
+  - Documented new operation types and modes
+  - Added best practices for workflow recovery

+
+- **Type System**: Extended workflow diff types
+  - Added `CleanStaleConnectionsOperation` interface
+  - Added `ReplaceConnectionsOperation` interface
+  - Extended `WorkflowDiffResult` with `applied`, `failed`, and `staleConnectionsRemoved` fields
+  - Updated type guards for new connection operations
+
+### Testing
+- Added comprehensive test suite for v2.14.4 features
+  - 15 new tests covering all new operations and modes
+  - Tests for cleanStaleConnections with various stale scenarios
+  - Tests for replaceConnections validation
+  - Tests for ignoreErrors flag behavior
+  - Tests for continueOnError mode with mixed success/failure
+  - Backwards compatibility verification tests
+
+### Impact
+- **Time Saved**: Reduces broken workflow fix time from 10-15 minutes to 30 seconds
+- **Token Efficiency**: `cleanStaleConnections` is 1 operation vs 10+ manual operations
+- **User Experience**: Dramatically improved workflow recovery capabilities
+- **Backwards Compatibility**: 100% - all additions are optional and default to existing behavior
+
+## [2.13.2] - 2025-01-24
+
+### Added
+- **Operation and Resource Validation with Intelligent Suggestions**: New similarity services for n8n node configuration validation
+  - `OperationSimilarityService`: Validates operations and suggests similar alternatives using Levenshtein distance and pattern matching
+  - `ResourceSimilarityService`: Validates resources with automatic plural/singular conversion and typo detection
+  - Provides "Did you mean...?" suggestions when invalid operations or resources are used
+  - Example: `operation: "listFiles"` suggests `"search"` for Google Drive nodes
+  - Example: `resource: "files"` suggests singular `"file"` with 95% confidence
+  - Confidence-based suggestions (minimum 30% threshold) with contextual fix messages
+  - Resource-aware operation filtering ensures suggestions are contextually appropriate

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

+- All critical nodes validated successfully (httpRequest, code, slack, agent)
+- Test suite: 1,911 tests passing, 5 flaky performance tests failing (99.7% pass rate)
+
+## [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
+- **Structured Template Metadata System**: Comprehensive metadata for intelligent template discovery
+  - Generated metadata for 2,534 templates (97.5% coverage) using OpenAI's batch API

+  - Enhanced `list_templates` tool with optional `includeMetadata` parameter
+  - Templates now always include descriptions in list responses
+  - Metadata enables filtering by complexity level (simple/medium/complex)
+  - Filter by estimated setup time ranges (5-480 minutes)
+  - Filter by required external services (OpenAI, Slack, Google, etc.)
+  - Filter by target audience (developers, marketers, analysts, etc.)
+  - Multiple filter combinations supported for precise template discovery
+  - SQLite JSON extraction for efficient metadata queries
+  - Batch processing with OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model for cost efficiency

+  - 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

 ## Common Issues
 
+### Docker Configuration File Not Working (v2.8.2+)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Config file mounted but environment variables not set
+- Container starts but ignores configuration
+- Getting "permission denied" errors
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. **Ensure file is mounted correctly:**
+```bash
+# Correct - mount as read-only
+docker run -v $(pwd)/config.json:/app/config.json:ro ...
+
+# Check if file is accessible
+docker exec n8n-mcp cat /app/config.json
+```
+
+2. **Verify JSON syntax:**
+```bash
+# Validate JSON file
+cat config.json | jq .
+```
+
+3. **Check Docker logs for parsing errors:**
+```bash
+docker logs n8n-mcp | grep -i config
+```
+
+4. **Common issues:**
+- Invalid JSON syntax (use a JSON validator)
+- File permissions (should be readable)
+- Wrong mount path (must be `/app/config.json`)
+- Dangerous variables blocked (PATH, LD_PRELOAD, etc.)
+
 ### Custom Database Path Not Working (v2.7.16+)

+# 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

+- Workflow management through the n8n API
+- Real-time configuration validation
+
+## Local Testing
+
+### Quick Test Script
+
+Test n8n-MCP locally with the provided test script:
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
+cd n8n-mcp

+```
+
+This script will:
+1. Start a real n8n instance in Docker
+2. Start n8n-MCP server configured for n8n
+3. Guide you through API key setup for workflow management
+4. Test the complete integration between n8n and n8n-MCP
+
+### Manual Local Setup
+
+For development or custom testing:
+
+1. **Prerequisites**:
+   - n8n instance running (local or remote)
+   - n8n API key (from n8n Settings → API)
+
+2. **Start n8n-MCP**:
+```bash
+# Set environment variables
+export N8N_MODE=true
+export MCP_MODE=http                       # Required for HTTP mode
+export N8N_API_URL=http://localhost:5678  # Your n8n instance URL
+export N8N_API_KEY=your-api-key-here       # Your n8n API key
+export MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=test-token-minimum-32-chars-long
+export AUTH_TOKEN=test-token-minimum-32-chars-long  # Same value as MCP_AUTH_TOKEN
+export PORT=3001
+
+# Start the server
+npm start
+```
+
+3. **Verify it's running**:
+```bash
+# Check health
+curl http://localhost:3001/health
+
+# Check MCP protocol endpoint (this is the endpoint n8n connects to)
+curl http://localhost:3001/mcp
+# Should return: {"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05"} for n8n compatibility
+```
+
+## Environment Variables Reference
+
+| Variable | Required | Description | Example Value |
+|----------|----------|-------------|---------------|
+| `N8N_MODE` | Yes | Enables n8n integration mode | `true` |
+| `MCP_MODE` | Yes | Enables HTTP mode for n8n MCP Client | `http` |
+| `N8N_API_URL` | Yes* | URL of your n8n instance | `http://localhost:5678` |
+| `N8N_API_KEY` | Yes* | n8n API key for workflow management | `n8n_api_xxx...` |
+| `MCP_AUTH_TOKEN` | Yes | Authentication token for MCP requests (min 32 chars) | `secure-random-32-char-token` |
+| `AUTH_TOKEN` | Yes | **MUST match MCP_AUTH_TOKEN exactly** | `secure-random-32-char-token` |
+| `PORT` | No | Port for the HTTP server | `3000` (default) |
+| `LOG_LEVEL` | No | Logging verbosity | `info`, `debug`, `error` |
+
+*Required only for workflow management features. Documentation tools work without these.
+
+## Docker Build Changes (v2.9.2+)
+
+Starting with version 2.9.2, we use a single optimized Dockerfile for all deployments:
+- The previous `Dockerfile.n8n` has been removed as redundant
+- N8N_MODE functionality is enabled via the `N8N_MODE=true` environment variable
+- This reduces image size by 500MB+ and improves build times from 8+ minutes to 1-2 minutes
+- All examples now use the standard `Dockerfile`
+
+## Production Deployment
+
+> **⚠️ Critical**: Docker caches images locally. Always run `docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest` before deploying to ensure you have the latest version. This simple step prevents most deployment issues.
+
+### Same Server as n8n
+
+If you're running n8n-MCP on the same server as your n8n instance:
+
+### Using Pre-built Image (Recommended)
+
+The pre-built images are automatically updated with each release and are the easiest way to get started.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Always pull the latest image to avoid using cached versions:
+
+```bash
+# ALWAYS pull the latest image first
+docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+
+# Generate a secure token (save this!)
+AUTH_TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
+echo "Your AUTH_TOKEN: $AUTH_TOKEN"
+
+# Create a Docker network if n8n uses one
+docker network create n8n-net
+
+# Run n8n-MCP container
+docker run -d \
+  --name n8n-mcp \
+  --network n8n-net \
+  -p 3000:3000 \
+  -e N8N_MODE=true \
+  -e MCP_MODE=http \
+  -e N8N_API_URL=http://n8n:5678 \
+  -e N8N_API_KEY=your-n8n-api-key \
+  -e MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=$AUTH_TOKEN \
+  -e AUTH_TOKEN=$AUTH_TOKEN \
+  -e LOG_LEVEL=info \
+  --restart unless-stopped \
+  ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+### Building from Source (Advanced Users)
+
+Only build from source if you need custom modifications or are contributing to development:
+
+```bash
+# Clone and build
+git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
+cd n8n-mcp
+
+# Build Docker image
+docker build -t n8n-mcp:latest .
+
+# Run using your local image
+docker run -d \
+  --name n8n-mcp \
+  -p 3000:3000 \
+  -e N8N_MODE=true \
+  -e MCP_MODE=http \
+  -e MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32) \
+  -e AUTH_TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32) \
+  # ... other settings
+  n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+### Using systemd (for native installation)
+
+```bash
+# Create service file
+sudo cat > /etc/systemd/system/n8n-mcp.service << EOF
+[Unit]
+Description=n8n-MCP Server
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]

+User=nodejs
+WorkingDirectory=/opt/n8n-mcp
+Environment="N8N_MODE=true"
+Environment="MCP_MODE=http"
+Environment="N8N_API_URL=http://localhost:5678"
+Environment="N8N_API_KEY=your-n8n-api-key"
+Environment="MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-32-chars-min"
+Environment="AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-32-chars-min"
+Environment="PORT=3000"
+ExecStart=/usr/bin/node /opt/n8n-mcp/dist/mcp/index.js

+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+EOF
+
+# Enable and start
+sudo systemctl enable n8n-mcp
+sudo systemctl start n8n-mcp
+```
+
+### Different Server (Cloud Deployment)
+
+Deploy n8n-MCP on a separate server from your n8n instance:
+
+#### Quick Docker Deployment (Recommended)
+
+**Always pull the latest image to ensure you have the current version:**
+
+```bash
+# On your cloud server (Hetzner, AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.)
+# ALWAYS pull the latest image first
+docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+
+# Generate auth tokens
+AUTH_TOKEN=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
+echo "Save this AUTH_TOKEN: $AUTH_TOKEN"
+
+# Run the container
+docker run -d \
+  --name n8n-mcp \
+  -p 3000:3000 \
+  -e N8N_MODE=true \
+  -e MCP_MODE=http \
+  -e N8N_API_URL=https://your-n8n-instance.com \
+  -e N8N_API_KEY=your-n8n-api-key \
+  -e MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=$AUTH_TOKEN \
+  -e AUTH_TOKEN=$AUTH_TOKEN \
+  -e LOG_LEVEL=info \
+  --restart unless-stopped \
+  ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+#### Building from Source (Advanced)
+
+Only needed if you're modifying the code:
+
+```bash
+# Clone and build
+git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
+cd n8n-mcp
+docker build -t n8n-mcp:latest .
+
+# Run using local image
+docker run -d \
+  --name n8n-mcp \
+  -p 3000:3000 \
+  # ... same environment variables as above
+  n8n-mcp:latest
+```
+
+#### Full Production Setup (Hetzner/AWS/DigitalOcean)
+
+1. **Server Requirements**:
+   - **Minimal**: 1 vCPU, 1GB RAM (CX11 on Hetzner)
+   - **Recommended**: 2 vCPU, 2GB RAM
+   - **OS**: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
+
+2. **Initial Setup**:
+```bash
+# SSH into your server
+ssh root@your-server-ip
+
+# Update and install Docker
+apt update && apt upgrade -y
+curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
+```
+
+3. **Deploy n8n-MCP with SSL** (using Caddy for automatic HTTPS):
+
+**Using Docker Compose (Recommended)**
+```bash
+# Create docker-compose.yml
+cat > docker-compose.yml << 'EOF'
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  n8n-mcp:
+    image: ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest
+    pull_policy: always  # Always pull latest image
+    container_name: n8n-mcp
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    environment:
+      - N8N_MODE=true
+      - MCP_MODE=http
+      - N8N_API_URL=${N8N_API_URL}
+      - N8N_API_KEY=${N8N_API_KEY}
+      - MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=${MCP_AUTH_TOKEN}
+      - AUTH_TOKEN=${AUTH_TOKEN}
+      - PORT=3000
+      - LOG_LEVEL=info
+    networks:
+      - web
+
+  caddy:
+    image: caddy:2-alpine
+    container_name: caddy
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    ports:
+      - "80:80"
+      - "443:443"
+    volumes:
+      - ./Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile
+      - caddy_data:/data
+      - caddy_config:/config
+    networks:
+      - web
+
+networks:
+  web:
+    driver: bridge
+
+volumes:
+  caddy_data:
+  caddy_config:
+EOF
+```
+
+**Note**: The `pull_policy: always` ensures you always get the latest version.
+
+**Building from Source (if needed)**
+```bash
+# Only if you need custom modifications
+git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
+cd n8n-mcp
+docker build -t n8n-mcp:local .
+
+# Then update docker-compose.yml to use:
+# image: n8n-mcp:local
+    container_name: n8n-mcp
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    environment:

+
+#### Cloud Provider Tips
+
+**AWS EC2**:
+- Security Group: Open port 3000 (or 443 with HTTPS)
+- Instance Type: t3.micro is sufficient
+- Use Elastic IP for stable addressing
+
+**DigitalOcean**:
+- Droplet: Basic ($6/month) is enough
+- Enable backups for production use
+
+**Google Cloud**:
+- Machine Type: e2-micro (free tier eligible)
+- Use Cloud Load Balancer for SSL
+
+## Connecting n8n to n8n-MCP
+
+### Configure n8n MCP Client Tool
+
+1. **In your n8n workflow**, add the **MCP Client Tool** node
+
+2. **Configure the connection**:
+   ```
+   Server URL (MUST include /mcp endpoint): 
+   - Same server: http://localhost:3000/mcp
+   - Docker network: http://n8n-mcp:3000/mcp
+   - Different server: https://mcp.yourdomain.com/mcp
+   
+   Auth Token: [Your MCP_AUTH_TOKEN/AUTH_TOKEN value]
+   
+   Transport: HTTP Streamable (SSE)
+   ```
+   
+   ⚠️ **Critical**: The Server URL must include the `/mcp` endpoint path. Without this, the connection will fail.
+
+3. **Test the connection** by selecting a simple tool like `list_nodes`
+
+### Available Tools
+
+Once connected, you can use these MCP tools in n8n:
+
+**Documentation Tools** (No API key required):
+- `list_nodes` - List all n8n nodes with filtering
+- `search_nodes` - Search nodes by keyword
+- `get_node_info` - Get detailed node information
+- `get_node_essentials` - Get only essential properties
+- `validate_workflow` - Validate workflow configurations
+- `get_node_documentation` - Get human-readable docs
+
+**Management Tools** (Requires n8n API key):
+- `n8n_create_workflow` - Create new workflows
+- `n8n_update_workflow` - Update existing workflows
+- `n8n_get_workflow` - Retrieve workflow details
+- `n8n_list_workflows` - List all workflows
+- `n8n_trigger_webhook_workflow` - Trigger webhook workflows
+
+### Using with AI Agents
+
+Connect n8n-MCP to AI Agent nodes for intelligent automation:
+
+1. **Add an AI Agent node** (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic)
+2. **Connect MCP Client Tool** to the Agent's tool input
+3. **Configure prompts** for workflow creation:
+
+```
+You are an n8n workflow expert. Use the MCP tools to:
+1. Search for appropriate nodes using search_nodes
+2. Get configuration details with get_node_essentials
+3. Validate configurations with validate_workflow
+4. Create the workflow if all validations pass
+```
+
+## Security & Best Practices
+
+### Authentication
+- **MCP_AUTH_TOKEN**: Always use a strong, random token (32+ characters)
+- **N8N_API_KEY**: Only required for workflow management features
+- Store tokens in environment variables or secure vaults
+
+### Network Security
+- **Use HTTPS** in production (Caddy/Nginx/Traefik)
+- **Firewall**: Only expose necessary ports (3000 or 443)
+- **IP Whitelisting**: Consider restricting access to known n8n instances
+
+### Docker Security
+- **Always pull latest images**: Docker caches images locally, so run `docker pull` before deployment
+- Run containers with `--read-only` flag if possible
+- Use specific image versions instead of `:latest` in production
+- Regular updates: `docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Docker Image Issues
+
+**Using Outdated Cached Images**
+- **Symptom**: Missing features, old bugs reappearing, features not working as documented
+- **Cause**: Docker uses locally cached images instead of pulling the latest version
+- **Solution**: Always run `docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest` before deployment
+- **Verification**: Check image age with `docker images | grep n8n-mcp`
+
+### Common Configuration Issues
+
+**Missing `MCP_MODE=http` Environment Variable**
+- **Symptom**: n8n MCP Client Tool cannot connect, server doesn't respond on `/mcp` endpoint
+- **Solution**: Add `MCP_MODE=http` to your environment variables
+- **Why**: Without this, the server runs in stdio mode which is incompatible with n8n
+
+**Server URL Missing `/mcp` Endpoint**
+- **Symptom**: "Connection refused" or "Invalid response" in n8n MCP Client Tool
+- **Solution**: Ensure your Server URL includes `/mcp` (e.g., `http://localhost:3000/mcp`)
+- **Why**: n8n connects to the `/mcp` endpoint specifically, not the root URL
+
+**Mismatched Auth Tokens**
+- **Symptom**: "Authentication failed" or "Invalid auth token"
+- **Solution**: Ensure both `MCP_AUTH_TOKEN` and `AUTH_TOKEN` have the same value
+- **Why**: Both variables must match for proper authentication
+
+### Connection Issues
+
+**"Connection refused" in n8n MCP Client Tool**
+1. **Check n8n-MCP is running**:
+   ```bash
+   # Docker
+   docker ps | grep n8n-mcp
+   docker logs n8n-mcp --tail 20
+   
+   # Systemd
+   systemctl status n8n-mcp
+   journalctl -u n8n-mcp --tail 20
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify endpoints are accessible**:
+   ```bash
+   # Health check (should return status info)
+   curl http://your-server:3000/health
+   
+   # MCP endpoint (should return protocol version)
+   curl http://your-server:3000/mcp
+   ```
+
+3. **Check firewall and networking**:
+   ```bash
+   # Test port accessibility from n8n server
+   telnet your-mcp-server 3000
+   
+   # Check firewall rules (Ubuntu/Debian)
+   sudo ufw status
+   
+   # Check if port is bound correctly
+   netstat -tlnp | grep :3000
+   ```
+
+**"Invalid auth token" or "Authentication failed"**
+1. **Verify token format**:
+   ```bash
+   # Check token length (should be 64 chars for hex-32)
+   echo $MCP_AUTH_TOKEN | wc -c
+   
+   # Verify both tokens match
+   echo "MCP_AUTH_TOKEN: $MCP_AUTH_TOKEN"
+   echo "AUTH_TOKEN: $AUTH_TOKEN"
+   ```
+
+2. **Common token issues**:
+   - Token too short (minimum 32 characters)
+   - Extra whitespace or newlines in token
+   - Different values for `MCP_AUTH_TOKEN` and `AUTH_TOKEN`
+   - Special characters not properly escaped in environment files
+
+**"Cannot connect to n8n API"**
+1. **Verify n8n configuration**:
+   ```bash
+   # Test n8n API accessibility
+   curl -H "X-N8N-API-KEY: your-api-key" \
+        https://your-n8n-instance.com/api/v1/workflows
+   ```
+
+2. **Common n8n API issues**:
+   - `N8N_API_URL` missing protocol (http:// or https://)
+   - n8n API key expired or invalid
+   - n8n instance not accessible from n8n-MCP server
+   - n8n API disabled in settings
+
+### Version Compatibility Issues
+
+**"Features Not Working as Expected"**
+- **Symptom**: Missing features, old bugs, or compatibility issues
+- **Solution**: Pull the latest image: `docker pull ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest`
+- **Check**: Verify image date with `docker inspect ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest | grep Created`
+
+**"Protocol version mismatch"**
+- n8n-MCP automatically uses version 2024-11-05 for n8n compatibility
+- Update to latest n8n-MCP version if issues persist
+- Verify `/mcp` endpoint returns correct version
+
+### Environment Variable Issues
+
+**Complete Environment Variable Checklist**:
+```bash
+# Required for all deployments
+export N8N_MODE=true                                    # Enables n8n integration

+export MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-32-char-token       # Auth token
+export AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-32-char-token           # Same value as MCP_AUTH_TOKEN
+
+# Required for workflow management features
+export N8N_API_URL=https://your-n8n-instance.com      # Your n8n URL
+export N8N_API_KEY=your-n8n-api-key                   # Your n8n API key
+
+# Optional
+export PORT=3000                                       # HTTP port (default: 3000)
+export LOG_LEVEL=info                                  # Logging level
+```
+
+### Docker-Specific Issues
+
+**Container Build Failures**
+```bash
+# Clear Docker cache and rebuild
+docker system prune -f
+docker build --no-cache -t n8n-mcp:latest .
+```
+
+**Container Runtime Issues**
+```bash
+# Check container logs for detailed errors
+docker logs n8n-mcp -f --timestamps
+
+# Inspect container environment
+docker exec n8n-mcp env | grep -E "(N8N|MCP|AUTH)"
+
+# Test container connectivity
+docker exec n8n-mcp curl -f http://localhost:3000/health
+```
+
+### Network and SSL Issues
+
+**HTTPS/SSL Problems**
+```bash
+# Test SSL certificate
+openssl s_client -connect mcp.yourdomain.com:443
+
+# Check Caddy logs
+docker logs caddy -f --tail 50
+```
+
+**Docker Network Issues**
+```bash
+# Check if containers can communicate
+docker network ls
+docker network inspect bridge
+
+# Test inter-container connectivity
+docker exec n8n curl http://n8n-mcp:3000/health
+```
+
+### Debugging Steps
+
+1. **Enable comprehensive logging**:
+```bash
+# For Docker
+docker run -d \
+  --name n8n-mcp \
+  -e DEBUG_MCP=true \
+  -e LOG_LEVEL=debug \
+  -e N8N_MODE=true \
+  -e MCP_MODE=http \
+  # ... other settings
+
+# For systemd, add to service file:
+Environment="DEBUG_MCP=true"
+Environment="LOG_LEVEL=debug"
+```
+
+2. **Test all endpoints systematically**:
+```bash
+# 1. Health check (basic server functionality)
+curl -v http://localhost:3000/health
+
+# 2. MCP protocol endpoint (what n8n connects to)
+curl -v http://localhost:3000/mcp
+
+# 3. Test authentication (if working, returns tools list)
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/list","id":1}'
+
+# 4. Test a simple tool (documentation only, no n8n API needed)
+curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_database_statistics","arguments":{}},"id":2}'
+```
+
+3. **Common log patterns to look for**:
+```bash
+# Success patterns
+grep "Server started" /var/log/n8n-mcp.log
+grep "Protocol version" /var/log/n8n-mcp.log
+
+# Error patterns
+grep -i "error\|failed\|invalid" /var/log/n8n-mcp.log
+grep -i "auth\|token" /var/log/n8n-mcp.log
+grep -i "connection\|network" /var/log/n8n-mcp.log
+```

+# 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.

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

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

+      - N8N_BASIC_AUTH_USER=${N8N_USER:-admin}
+      - N8N_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD=${N8N_PASSWORD:-changeme}
+      - N8N_COMMUNITY_PACKAGES_ALLOW_TOOL_USAGE=true
+    volumes:
+      - n8n_data:/home/node/.n8n
+    networks:
+      - n8n-net
+    depends_on:
+      n8n-mcp:
+        condition: service_healthy
+
+  n8n-mcp:
+    image: ghcr.io/${GITHUB_USER:-czlonkowski}/n8n-mcp-n8n:latest
+    build:
+      context: .
+      dockerfile: Dockerfile.n8n
+    container_name: n8n-mcp
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    environment:
+      - MCP_MODE=http
+      - N8N_MODE=true
+      - AUTH_TOKEN=${MCP_AUTH_TOKEN}
+      - NODE_ENV=production
+      - HTTP_PORT=3001
+    networks:
+      - n8n-net
+    healthcheck:
+      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:3001/health"]
+      interval: 30s
+      timeout: 10s
+      retries: 3
+
+networks:
+  n8n-net:
+    driver: bridge
+
+volumes:
+  n8n_data:
+```
+
+#### 3.3 Create `.env.n8n.example`
+
+```bash
+# .env.n8n.example - Copy to .env and configure
+
+# n8n Configuration
+N8N_USER=admin
+N8N_PASSWORD=changeme
+N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE=true
+
+# MCP Configuration
+# Generate with: openssl rand -base64 32
+MCP_AUTH_TOKEN=your-secure-token-minimum-32-characters
+
+# GitHub username for image registry
+GITHUB_USER=czlonkowski
+```
+
+### Step 4: Create GitHub Actions Workflow
+
+#### 4.1 Create `.github/workflows/docker-build-n8n.yml`
+
+```yaml
+name: Build n8n Docker Image
+
+on:
+  push:
+    branches: [main]
+    tags: ['v*']
+    paths:
+      - 'src/**'
+      - 'package*.json'
+      - 'Dockerfile.n8n'
+  workflow_dispatch:
+
+env:
+  REGISTRY: ghcr.io
+  IMAGE_NAME: ${{ github.repository }}-n8n
+
+jobs:
+  build:

+      packages: write
+      
+    steps:
+      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+      
+      - uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
+      
+      - uses: docker/login-action@v3
+        with:
+          registry: ${{ env.REGISTRY }}
+          username: ${{ github.actor }}

+          tags: |
+            type=ref,event=branch
+            type=semver,pattern={{version}}
+            type=raw,value=latest,enable={{is_default_branch}}
+            
+      - uses: docker/build-push-action@v5
+        with:
+          context: .
+          file: ./Dockerfile.n8n
+          push: true
+          tags: ${{ steps.meta.outputs.tags }}
+          cache-from: type=gha
+          cache-to: type=gha,mode=max
+```
+
+### Step 5: Testing
+
+#### 5.1 Unit Tests for n8n Mode
+
+Create `tests/unit/http-server-n8n-mode.test.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
+import request from 'supertest';
+
+describe('n8n Mode', () => {
+  it('should return protocol version on GET /mcp', async () => {
+    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
+    const app = await createTestApp();
+    
+    const response = await request(app)
+      .get('/mcp')
+      .expect(200);
+    
+    expect(response.body.protocolVersion).toBe('2024-11-05');
+    expect(response.body.serverInfo.capabilities.tools).toBe(true);
+  });
+  
+  it('should include session ID in response headers', async () => {
+    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
+    const app = await createTestApp();
+    
+    const response = await request(app)
+      .post('/mcp')
+      .set('Authorization', 'Bearer test-token')
+      .send({ jsonrpc: '2.0', method: 'initialize', id: 1 });
+    
+    expect(response.headers['mcp-session-id']).toBeDefined();
+  });
+  
+  it('should format errors as JSON-RPC', async () => {
+    process.env.N8N_MODE = 'true';
+    const app = await createTestApp();
+    
+    const response = await request(app)
+      .post('/mcp')
+      .send({ invalid: 'request' })
+      .expect(500);
+    
+    expect(response.body.jsonrpc).toBe('2.0');
+    expect(response.body.error.code).toBe(-32603);
+  });
+});
+```
+
+#### 5.2 Quick Deployment Script
+
+Create `deploy/quick-deploy-n8n.sh`:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+set -e
+
+echo "🚀 Quick Deploy n8n + n8n-mcp"
+
+# Check prerequisites
+command -v docker >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "Docker required"; exit 1; }
+command -v docker-compose >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "Docker Compose required"; exit 1; }
+
+# Generate auth token if not exists
+if [ ! -f .env ]; then
+  cp .env.n8n.example .env
+  TOKEN=$(openssl rand -base64 32)
+  sed -i "s/your-secure-token-minimum-32-characters/$TOKEN/" .env
+  echo "Generated MCP_AUTH_TOKEN: $TOKEN"
+fi
+
+# Deploy
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml up -d
+
+echo ""
+echo "✅ Deployment complete!"
+echo ""
+echo "📋 Next steps:"
+echo "1. Access n8n at http://localhost:5678"
+echo "   Username: admin (or check .env)"
+echo "   Password: changeme (or check .env)"
+echo ""
+echo "2. Create a workflow with MCP Client Tool:"
+echo "   - Server URL: http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp"
+echo "   - Authentication: Bearer Token"
+echo "   - Token: Check .env file for MCP_AUTH_TOKEN"
+echo ""
+echo "📊 View logs: docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml logs -f"
+echo "🛑 Stop: docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml down"
+```

+## Quick Start Guide
+
+### 1. One-Command Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Clone and deploy
+git clone https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp.git
+cd n8n-mcp
+./deploy/quick-deploy-n8n.sh
+```
+
+### 2. Manual Configuration in n8n
+
+After deployment, configure the MCP Client Tool in n8n:
+
+1. Open n8n at `http://localhost:5678`
+2. Create a new workflow
+3. Add "MCP Client Tool" node (under AI category)
+4. Configure:
+   - **Server URL**: `http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp`
+   - **Authentication**: Bearer Token
+   - **Token**: Check your `.env` file for MCP_AUTH_TOKEN
+5. Select a tool (e.g., `list_nodes`)
+6. Execute the workflow
+
+### 3. Production Deployment
+
+For production with SSL, use a reverse proxy:
+
+```nginx
+# nginx configuration
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl;
+    server_name n8n.yourdomain.com;
+    
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://localhost:5678;
+        proxy_http_version 1.1;
+        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
+        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The MCP server should remain internal only - n8n connects via Docker network.
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+The implementation is successful when:
+
+1. **Minimal Code Changes**: Only ~20 lines added to existing server
+2. **Protocol Compliance**: GET /mcp returns correct protocol version
+3. **n8n Connection**: MCP Client Tool connects successfully
+4. **Tool Execution**: Tools work without modification
+5. **Backward Compatible**: Existing Claude Desktop usage unaffected
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **"Protocol version mismatch"**
+   - Ensure N8N_MODE=true is set
+   - Check GET /mcp returns "2024-11-05"
+
+2. **"Authentication failed"**
+   - Verify AUTH_TOKEN matches in .env and n8n
+   - Token must be 32+ characters
+   - Use "Bearer Token" auth type in n8n
+
+3. **"Connection refused"**
+   - Check containers are on same network
+   - Use internal hostname: `http://n8n-mcp:3001/mcp`
+   - Verify health check passes
+
+4. **Testing the Setup**
+   ```bash
+   # Check protocol version
+   docker exec n8n-mcp curl http://localhost:3001/mcp
+   
+   # View logs
+   docker-compose -f docker-compose.n8n.yml logs -f n8n-mcp
+   ```
+
+## Summary
+
+This simplified approach:
+- **Extends existing code** rather than creating new architecture
+- **Adds n8n compatibility** with minimal changes
+- **Uses separate Docker image** for clean deployment
+- **Maintains backward compatibility** for existing users
+- **Avoids overengineering** with simple, practical solutions
+
+Total implementation effort: ~2-3 hours (vs. 2-3 days for multi-session approach)
