N8n Subworkflows

by czlonkowski19cd793f4789No license6.3K starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated 3 weeks ago

Build reusable, composable n8n sub-workflows. Use when extracting shared logic, building anything multi-step or reused across workflows, or any workflow over ~10 nodes — and whenever the user mentions sub-workflows, Execute Workflow, reuse, shared/common logic, modular workflows, "Define Below" inputs, waitForSubWorkflow, mode each vs all, or exposing a workflow as an agent tool. Covers typed sub-workflow inputs, all-vs-each execution, verb-first naming for discovery, stateless vs stateful design, and splitting by input shape.

Only the file list is public. File contents are available once the skill is installed in a workspace.

N8n Multi Instance

czlonkowski

Use when an n8n-mcp account targets more than one n8n instance — i.e. the `n8n_instances` tool is available, the user mentions multiple n8n instances or environments (prod vs staging, several teams or clients), a workflow / datatable / credential / execution call returns an unexpected NOT_FOUND or reads data you don't recognize, or a credential create/update/delete is refused with an `INSTANCE_AMBIGUOUS` error. Covers choosing and switching which instance this MCP session targets, verifying the target before high-stakes work — credential writes above all — and recovering from misroutes and ambiguous-write fail-closes. Always consult this skill before operating on a specific instance, before any credential create/update/delete on a multi-instance account, or when a call hits the wrong/empty data or an `INSTANCE_AMBIGUOUS` error.
