n8n's Own Skills, Useless Without an Instance

Added 2026-08-06

Thirteen capability skills plus a meta-skill that routes between them. The prerequisite is hard: an n8n instance with instance-level MCP enabled, version 2.2.0 or newer, or none of it does anything.

Three hooks carry the mechanism: the router skill is injected at session start, the matching skill returns to context before a high-risk node lookup, and after validation the remaining risk routes to the skill that owns it. The division is clear: MCP makes the connection, skills set the standard, aiming to get it right first time. Two things to watch: a plain npx install has no hooks, so you add the pointer to AGENTS.md yourself; and if you already configured n8n MCP elsewhere, this plugin adds its own connection, so disable the old one.
