Automations

What Claude can do with your n8n: find out why something failed, report how things are going, build agents, write and test workflows straight on your own n8n, and on Support Plus and above install templates.

Claude starts n8n work with awesomate_n8n_context: your n8n's address, your plan, and whether you've let Claude Code work in it. For how a node works, it looks the node up live (awesomate_n8n_node_docs, 500+ nodes and 2,500+ community templates, on every plan) rather than going from memory.

On every plan: what's happening, and why something failed

Did anything fail this week? Why?

How much time are my automations saving?

  • awesomate_n8n_errors groups what's failing across your whole n8n, newest first, and awesomate_n8n_executions reads one run node by node to find where it broke.
  • awesomate_n8n_workflows lists every workflow with what it uses, awesomate_n8n_kpis gives runs, error rate and time saved, and awesomate_n8n_storage shows what's filling your n8n's database.
  • awesomate_n8n_inspect lists the nodes and data tables you use, and suggests what else you could automate. It can also read which fields a type of credential takes (credential_schema), so Claude can tell you what to have ready.
  • On Pro and Embedded, with Suggest fixes when something fails switched on in Settings, Privacy, awesomate_n8n_findings gives our analyser's plain-language findings, including anything only you can fix.

n8n Agents, on every plan

Make me an n8n agent that answers questions about our services in Slack.

awesomate_n8n_agents builds and manages agents in n8n's own Agents tab. To use it, switch on n8n Agents access in the hub (n8n, Settings), and Let Claude Code work with your automations in Settings, Privacy.

Building workflows: straight on your own n8n, on every plan

Build me an automation that adds new form entries to my contact list and emails me a summary.

Claude writes workflows on your n8n through n8n's own MCP server, not through Awesomate. Switch it on once: in your n8n, Settings, MCP access, or press Set it up for me under n8n Agents access on the hub's n8n Settings page. n8n gives you a key; add it to your Claude Code yourself with claude mcp add --transport http n8n https://<your n8n>/mcp-server/http --header "Authorization: Bearer <your key>" (never paste the key into the chat). From then on Claude designs the workflow with you, grounds it in what your n8n already has (awesomate_n8n_workflows, awesomate_n8n_inspect, awesomate_n8n_node_docs), writes it on your n8n, runs it with sample data, reads what each step did with awesomate_n8n_executions, and switches it on only when you say so. Awesomate never sees that traffic, sets no limits on it and keeps no count. Reading your n8n from here still needs Let Claude Code work with your automations in Settings, Privacy.

Changing a live workflow is never done by switching on a copy, because a copy has different web addresses. Claude tests the change on a copy, shows you what changes in plain words, and on your yes applies it to the live workflow itself, keeping its addresses. Workflows Awesomate built for you can be switched on or off, but Claude won't change them: ask our team.

Templates. awesomate_n8n_library lists the ready-made automations and agents your account can install, on every plan. Installing needs Support Plus and above and Install ready-made automations you choose switched on in Settings, Privacy. Claude checks you have the accounts each one needs first, installs it switched off, and can switch it on, test it, or remove it again.

Data and databases. n8n data tables are yours to create in n8n (Data tables in the left menu); Claude designs the columns, reads the tables with awesomate_n8n_inspect, and builds the workflows that fill them. A workflow that needs its own Postgres uses a credential you create in n8n, from a database on your hosting (cPanel, PostgreSQL Databases) or anywhere else. The awesomate-database skill walks Claude through which store fits.

Files. Your workflows can read and write files in your n8n's own folders (public, private and temp) with n8n's file nodes. You see and manage them on the hub's Files page, on Support Plus and above, with Open your automation account's file folders switched on in Settings, Privacy. Claude Code can't open those folders itself yet, but it can keep one synced into your Knowledge: see Knowledge.

Passwords and API keys go through a one-time secure form, never the chat. See How it works.

Every tool is in Automations (n8n).
