Building N8n Nodes

comeonoliver/building-n8n-nodes

Builds custom community nodes for n8n, the workflow automation platform. Activates when the user wants to create, scaffold, develop, test, lint, or publish an n8n node — including both declarative (REST API) and programmatic styles. Also triggers when the user mentions n8n nodes, n8n-cli, n8n-node, community nodes, node credentials, or anything related to extending n8n with custom integrations. Encodes all official best practices from n8n's documentation.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take comeonoliver/building-n8n-nodes from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npm. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
