# Immediate Deployment Action Plan ## 🚀 Quick Fix: Test if Tools are Actually Working Based on the analysis, your implemented tools ARE working but the Docker image is outdated. Here's how to verify and fix: ## Option 1: Local Testing (Fastest) ```bash # 1. Stop current Docker container docker compose down # 2. Run locally with npm cd /Users/romualdczlonkowski/Pliki/n8n-mcp/n8n-mcp npm run build npm run start:http # 3. Test with curl curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "tools/list", "id": 1 }' ``` You should see all 12 tools including: - get_node_essentials - search_node_properties - get_node_for_task - list_tasks - validate_node_config - get_property_dependencies ## Option 2: Update Docker Image ```bash # 1. Build new image with latest code docker build -t ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:v2.4.0 . docker build -t ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest . # 2. Test locally docker run -p 3000:3000 -e USE_FIXED_HTTP=true ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest # 3. Push to registry (if you have access) docker push ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:v2.4.0 docker push ghcr.io/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp:latest ``` ## Option 3: Quick Local Docker Test ```bash # 1. Update docker-compose.yml to build locally cat > docker-compose.override.yml << 'EOF' services: n8n-mcp: build: . image: n8n-mcp:local EOF # 2. Rebuild and start docker compose build docker compose up -d # 3. Check health curl http://localhost:3000/health ``` ## Claude Desktop Testing After updating: 1. **Completely quit Claude Desktop** (not just close window) 2. **Clear any cache**: ```bash # macOS rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.anthropic.claude* ``` 3. **Restart Claude Desktop** 4. **Test the new tools**: - "List all available MCP tools" - "Use get_node_essentials for HTTP Request" - "Use get_node_for_task to configure a post_json_request" ## Diagnostic Script ```bash # Save this as test-mcp-tools.sh #!/bin/bash echo "Testing MCP Tools Availability..." # Test tool list curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/list","id":1}' | \ jq '.result.tools[].name' | sort echo -e "\nTesting get_node_essentials..." curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "jsonrpc":"2.0", "method":"tools/call", "params":{ "name":"get_node_essentials", "arguments":{"nodeType":"nodes-base.httpRequest"} }, "id":2 }' | jq '.result.content[0].text' -r | jq '.requiredProperties, .commonProperties' | head -20 ``` ## Expected Results If everything is working, you should see: 1. **12 tools** in the tool list 2. **get_node_essentials** returns ~6 properties (not 200+) 3. **No errors** about missing tools ## If Tools Still Don't Appear 1. **Check which server file is being used**: ```bash grep -n "from './server" dist/mcp/index.js ``` Should show: `from './server-update'` 2. **Verify the tools are in the compiled code**: ```bash grep -c "get_node_essentials" dist/mcp/tools-update.js ``` Should show: 3 or more 3. **Check if there's a caching issue**: - Add `?v=2` to your MCP URL in Claude Desktop config - Or change the server name temporarily ## Next Steps Once you confirm the tools are working: 1. Document the deployment process that worked 2. Update CI/CD to automate image builds 3. Proceed with V2 improvements (deduplication, etc.) The tools ARE implemented - we just need to get the latest code deployed!
