N8n Project Init

  • 1 repo stars
  • Updated March 27, 2026
  • jonmcgee37/n8n-automations-toolkit

Bootstrap a Pattern-style n8n repo with credentials check, PRD in CLAUDE.md,.env, and verified API access before the n8n developer runs.

About

n8n-project-init scaffolds a fresh n8n automation workspace for agents following the Pattern team workflow. It is the bridge between a written Automation Blueprint and hands-on REST builds: credential checks, embedding the PRD in CLAUDE.md, generating.env templates, and confirming the n8n API responds. developers avoid half-configured folders where the developer skill cannot deploy or test incrementally. The skill assumes you already have—or will paste—a blueprint from n8n-prd-generator and targets step 2 of the three-step Pattern pipeline before the main n8n skill builds node by node. Intermediate complexity reflects API keys, instance URLs, and team-specific Pattern conventions rather than no-code clicking alone.

  • Verifies Pattern team credentials before any workflow work
  • Pulls the PRD blueprint into CLAUDE.md for agent-driven builds
  • Creates .env and project scaffolding for n8n REST workflows
  • Verifies API connection to the target n8n instance
  • Hands off explicitly to the n8n builder skill (step 2→3 in the 3-step pipeline)
