## Overview
**n8n-mcp**（czlonkowski/n8n-mcp）是连接 n8n 工作流自动化平台与 AI 模型的 MCP（Model Context Protocol）服务器。它使 AI 助手（如 Claude）能够理解和使用 n8n 节点，从而通过自然语言自动生成 N8N 工作流。

## Repository
https://github.com/czlonkowski/n8n-mcp

## Capabilities
- 📚 **543 n8n nodes** from both n8n-nodes-base and @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain
- 🔧 **Node properties** — 99% coverage with detailed schemas
- ⚡ **Node operations** — 63.6% coverage of available actions
- 📄 **Documentation** — 87% coverage from official n8n docs (including AI nodes)
- 🤖 **AI tools** — 271 AI-capable nodes detected with full documentation
- 💡 **Real-world examples** — 2,646 pre-extracted configurations from popular templates
- 🎯 **Template library** — 2,709 workflow templates with 100% metadata coverage

## Usage

### Installation
```bash
# Requires Node.js 18+
npx n8n-mcp
```

### Claude Desktop Integration
1. Install Claude desktop app
2. Navigate to Developer settings
3. Edit claude_desktop_config.json
4. Add n8n server address and API key

### Telemetry

To disable telemetry:
```bash
npx n8n-mcp telemetry disable
```
