N8n:setup Mcps

MCP Setup for n8n Development in OpenCode

Configure commonly used MCP servers for n8n engineers using OpenCode MCP config.

Instructions

• Check which MCPs are already configured by running, if available:

opencode mcp list

Parse by URL or command, not just server name. Skip any MCP whose URL is already

present.

Known MCP URLs:

• Linear: https://mcp.linear.app/mcp
• Notion: https://mcp.notion.com/mcp
• Context7: https://mcp.context7.com/mcp
• Figma: https://mcp.figma.com/mcp

• Ask the user which unconfigured MCPs they want to add. If all are already

configured, tell the user and stop.

| Option | Label | Description |

|--------|-------|-------------|

| Linear | Linear | Linear ticket management with OAuth |

| Notion | Notion | Notion workspace integration with OAuth |

| Context7 | Context7 | Library documentation lookup |

| Figma | Figma | Figma design integration with OAuth |

• Ask once whether to install in user or project scope.

| Scope | Config path | When to use |

|-------|-------------|-------------|

| user | ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json | Default. Available in all projects. |

| project | ./opencode.json | Only when the user explicitly wants repo-local config. |

• Add the selected MCP entries under the mcp object in the selected config.

Preserve existing config keys and existing MCP entries.

      "url": "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp",
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

• After editing config, tell the user to authenticate OAuth-backed servers with:

opencode mcp auth <server-name>

Use the configured server names, for example linear, notion, or figma.

Context7 does not require OAuth by default.
