Using the n8n-mcp Skills
When to Use
Use this router at the start of any n8n MCP workflow design, inspection, edit, validation, test, deployment, credential, execution, or troubleshooting task so the relevant specialist guidance is loaded first.
Begin with read-only discovery and live schema inspection. Never copy secrets into prompts or workflow fields, never infer the target instance, and obtain approval before tests with side effects, activation, deletion, credential mutation, or other externally visible changes.
This is a router, not a reference. It tells you which skill owns the rules for what you're about to do. The skill bodies hold the actual guidance — invoke them with the Skill tool. When in doubt, load more skills rather than fewer.
The community n8n-mcp server and n8n itself move faster than any model's training cutoff. Tool names, parameters, node typeVersions, and default behaviors drift between releases. When you spot drift — a tool a skill names doesn't exist, a parameter shape doesn't match what get_node returns, behavior differs from what a skill describes — trust the live tool, tell the user, and suggest updating the pack and the instance.
Non-negotiables
Three rules with no exceptions. Each one prevents a class of workflow that looks correct but breaks in production.
- Invoke the relevant skill before any n8n action — no

accesslint-diff
Diff a live page's accessibility violations against a baseline — by default compares uncommitted changes (stash-based), or pass --branch [<name>] to diff against a branch. Reports only new violations introduced, violations fixed, and pre-existing count. Use `scan` for a full audit with no diffing.
accesslint-scan
Audit a live page for accessibility issues, locate each WCAG violation precisely, and return a selector-grounded fix worklist without editing.
accint-commitments
Triage acc's open promises and close them with honest real-world verdicts via acc_act(runtime="outcome").
accint-frames
Drain acc's deliberation queue — open/waiting brain_frames checkpointed by headless runs — via acc_act(runtime="continue").
accint-solve
Route a goal through acc's scored-memory loop via acc_act(runtime="solve"); deliberate any returned brain_frame and submit via continue.
ad-creative
Create, iterate, and scale paid ad creative for Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and similar platforms. Use when generating headlines, descriptions, primary text, or large sets of ad variations for testing and performance optimization.
