n8n for Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT & agents

n8n — list workflows, fetch workflow details, activate / deactivate, trigger executions with input data, and list recent executions on an n8n automation server

curl -fsSL https://syncorelabs.ai/install.sh | sh

What it does

n8n — list workflows, fetch workflow details, activate / deactivate, trigger executions with input data, and list recent executions on an n8n automation server. Use when the user mentions n8n, workflow, automation, no-code pipeline, webhook trigger, or wants to run / inspect / control an n8n flow.

The n8n skill is one of 75+ pre-wired Syncore integrations that any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and ChatGPT desktop — can call out of the box. You don't configure MCP servers or copy API keys into a JSON file; the Syncore daemon discovers the skill at startup and exposes its tools to whichever AI client is running.

Sample prompts

Once Syncore is installed and n8n is connected, ask your agent something like:

• “List workflows from n8n.”
• “Get workflow from n8n.”
• “Activate Workflow workflow from n8n.”

Tools available (5)

• n8n__list_workflows

  List all n8n workflows (active or inactive) on the connected instance. Use when the user wants to browse / inventory their automations or you need a workflow_id. Supports active_only filter.

• n8n__get_workflow

  Fetch details of a specific n8n workflow by ID — nodes, connections, settings. Use when the user wants to inspect or debug an automation flow.

• n8n__activate_workflow

  Turn an n8n workflow on or off (activate / deactivate / pause / enable). Use when the user wants to switch an automation live or temporarily disable it.

• n8n__execute_workflow

  Trigger / run / fire an n8n workflow execution with optional input data. Use when the user wants to kick off an automation manually or test a flow. Pass input as a `data` object.

• n8n__list_executions

  List recent n8n workflow execution runs (success / error / running). Use when the user wants to debug an automation, see why a flow failed, or audit recent runs. Optional workflow_id filter.
