🔁 n8n Workflow QA Linter

Automated Production-Ready n8n Audits

Ship automations with confidence using a specialized linter designed for n8n workflow exports. This skill moves beyond simple formatting checks, performing a deep heuristic analysis of your workflow JSON to identify production risks, brittle logic, and security vulnerabilities before they cause downtime.

What it does

The linter scans your exported n8n workflows for critical patterns that lead to failure. It evaluates node stability, error handling coverage, webhook security, and expression reliability. It uses a combination of a heuristic scanner and a detailed manual review checklist to provide a comprehensive health score for your automations.

• Error Handling: Detects missing On-Error nodes and unhandled retry logic.
• Security: Identifies unsafe webhook configurations and exposed credential stubs.
• Reliability: Flags brittle expressions, non-idempotent nodes, and duplicated logic.
• Best Practices: Reviews node naming conventions and documentation gaps.

Why use this skill?

Prompting an AI with a raw n8n JSON file often leads to missed edge cases or halluncinated node behaviors. This skill utilizes a built-in heuristic scanner and a structured audit framework to ensure 100% of your workflow is analyzed against industry standards. It doesn't just find problems—it provides safe remediation snippets and a ranked list of findings by severity, from critical blocks to low-priority info items.

Output Format

You receive a professional audit report including a scoped list of inspected nodes, confirmed findings with evidence-backed impact statements, remediation code snippets, and specific manual review items for team handoff.
