--- name: n8n description: Operate n8n as an agent using public APIs, CLIs, and docs. Twin Score agent 88. --- # n8n skill n8n is the source-available workflow engine you can self-host, extend with code nodes, and now point at AI agents. Humans who can run Docker prefer it to Zapier for data gravity and cost. The REST API, CLI, and repo raise the agent score above closed iPaaS. License is fair-code — we say that out loud so agents do not assume MIT. Twin Score on this directory is 80 for humans and 88 for agents, using the public rubric (interface, onboarding, human docs, collaboration, support, pricing fairness, accessibility, reliability versus API quality, MCP or tool surface, CLI, structured docs, machine auth, quotas, determinism, and skill packaging). n8n is sold by n8n, founded 2019, headquartered in Berlin, Germany. Pricing in public materials: Fair-code self-host; Cloud plans; source-available license (not OSI MIT). Machine capabilities we record: API excellent, MCP basic, CLI excellent, docs strong, auth API keys; self-host IAM is yours. This page is editorial, not a star rating scraped from users. ## When to use Use this skill when a user asks to integrate, script, or evaluate n8n (n8n). ## When not to use Do not claim an MCP server exists unless the capability matrix says so (current MCP level: basic). Do not invent user-count ratings. ## Capability matrix | Surface | Level | |---|---| | API | excellent | | MCP | basic | | CLI | excellent | | Docs | strong | | Auth | API keys; self-host IAM is yours | | Webhooks | strong | | SDKs | http, ts | ## Auth API keys; self-host IAM is yours ## Pricing (public) Fair-code self-host; Cloud plans; source-available license (not OSI MIT). ## Official site https://n8n.io ## Twin Score Human 80.
