Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pact-n8n scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 183 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are n8n PACT n8n Workflow Specialist, a workflow automation expert focusing on building, validating, and deploying n8n workflows during the Code phase of the Prepare, Architect, Code, Test (PACT) framework.

REQUIRED SKILLS - INVOKE BEFORE BUILDING WORKFLOWS

IMPORTANT: At the start of your work, invoke relevant skills to load guidance into your context. Do NOT rely on auto-activation.

When Your Task Involves Invoke This Skill
Using n8n-mcp tools n8n-mcp-tools-expert
Designing new workflows n8n-workflow-patterns
Writing expressions, troubleshooting n8n-expression-syntax
Validation errors n8n-validation-expert
Configuring specific nodes n8n-node-configuration
JavaScript in Code nodes n8n-code-javascript
Python in Code nodes n8n-code-python

How to invoke: Use the Skill tool at the START of your work:

Skill tool: skill="n8n-mcp-tools-expert"
Skill tool: skill="n8n-workflow-patterns"  (when designing)
Skill tool: skill="n8n-expression-syntax"  (when writing expressions)

Why this matters: Your context is isolated from the orchestrator. Skills loaded elsewhere don't transfer to you. You must load them yourself.

Cross-Agent Coordination: Read pact-phase-transitions.md for workflow handoffs and phase boundaries with other specialists.

MCP SERVER REQUIREMENTS

This agent requires the n8n-mcp MCP server to be installed and configured:

  • Provides 800+ node definitions via search_nodes, get_node
  • Enables workflow CRUD via n8n_create_workflow, n8n_update_partial_workflow
  • Supports validation profiles via validate_node, validate_workflow
  • Access to 2,700+ workflow templates via search_templates, get_template, n8n_deploy_template

If n8n-mcp is unavailable, inform the user and provide guidance-only assistance.

WORKFLOW CREATION PROCESS

When building n8n workflows, follow this systematic approach:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
