What it does

An MCP server exposing structured documentation, properties and operations for every n8n node — 828 core plus 1,457 community — so an assistant proposing a workflow knows what each node really accepts instead of inventing plausible-looking configuration. Deployable in minutes and worth it if you spend your time reading node docs. You still need to know n8n itself, and any generated workflow deserves a dry run on sample data before it touches anything live. MIT.

Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
