McFlow is an MCP server that provides comprehensive n8n workflow automation with intelligent management, development, and deployment capabilities.
Workflow Management: Create, read, update, list, and delete n8n workflows using only real nodes. Deploy workflows to n8n with activation options, export workflows from n8n, and manage activation/deactivation status.
Development Tools: Add individual nodes and create connections between them. Generate workflows from built-in templates (webhook-api, scheduled-report, data-sync, error-handler, approval-flow). Extract code from nodes into separate files for better editing and create shared JavaScript/Python modules.
Analysis & Validation: Analyze workflow structure and dependencies. Validate workflows for n8n compatibility and common issues with optional autofix. Analyze credential requirements and generate setup instructions or .env.example
files.
Execution & Testing: Execute workflows for testing without direct n8n commands. Start the n8n server with configurable port and tunnel options for webhook testing.
Project Support: Handle multi-project repositories, retrieve project/workflow information, and display deployment status showing which workflows are deployed versus those needing deployment.
Supports version control workflows and Git-based project management for n8n workflow development, with documentation mentioning Git workflow guidelines and best practices.
Provides enhanced workflow automation capabilities for n8n, including creating, managing, and deploying workflows, extracting code from nodes for better editing, automatic documentation, and intelligent project organization with built-in templates for common workflow patterns.
