Implementation

This command delegates to the n8n MCP tools to:

1. Test Connection: Verify API connectivity
2. Get Workflow Count: List all workflows and count by status
3. Get Execution Stats: Query recent executions for metrics
4. Check Credentials: Verify credential status (if available)

Troubleshooting

Connection Failed

• Verify N8N_API_URL environment variable
• Verify N8N_API_KEY environment variable
• Check n8n Cloud is accessible

Authentication Error

• Regenerate API key in n8n Cloud
• Update .env file
• Restart Claude Code

No Workflows Found

• Verify API key has workflow access
• Check if workflows are in the correct workspace

Environment Variables

Required:

N8N_API_URL=https://your-instance.n8n.cloud/api/v1
N8N_API_KEY=your-api-key
