🔗 Common Workflow Patterns

Pattern 1: Web Scraping Pipeline

anti-scraping → html-parsing → data-processing → data-export

Use for: E-commerce scraping, content collection, price monitoring

Pattern 2: AI Content Analysis

input → ai-integration → notion-operations

Use for: Content analysis, auto-tagging, knowledge management

Pattern 3: Video Intelligence

oauth-automation → video-processing → ai-integration → notion-operations

Use for: Video indexing, show notes, content summarization

Pattern 4: Link Collection

webhook → notion-link-analysis → notion database

Use for: Research, content curation, inspiration collection

Pattern 5: Database Sync

schedule → notion-database-sync → target database

Use for: Cross-database synchronization, data migration

🚀 Getting Started Guide

Step 1: Identify Your Need

1. What are you trying to automate?
2. What data sources/APIs are involved?
3. What output do you need?

Step 2: Find Relevant Skills

Use the Quick Skill Finder above or browse by category.

Step 3: Read the Documentation

Each skill has detailed SKILL.md with:

• When to use it
• Quick start examples
• Complete patterns
• Troubleshooting

Step 4: Check Best Practices FIRST

Always read n8n-best-practices before implementing:

• Avoid ES6 syntax errors
• Use correct HTTP patterns
• Handle environment variables properly

Step 5: Combine Skills

Most complex workflows use multiple skills together.

📖 Documentation Structure

🔍 How to Search for Solutions

Method 1: By Problem

"I'm getting error X" → n8n-best-practices "Need to scrape site Y" → anti-scraping "OAuth token expired" → oauth-automation

Method 2: By Technology

YouTube → video-processing + oauth-automation Notion → notion-operations AI/LLM → ai-integration Cloudflare → anti-scraping

Method 3: By Pattern

Single page → anti-scraping + html-parsing Multi-page → Add pagination With AI → Add ai-integration Save to Notion → Add notion-operations

Method 4: By Keyword

# Search in skills directory
grep -r "keyword" /mnt/d/work/n8n_agent/n8n-skills/*/README.md

💡 Tips for Success

Golden Rules

1. Check Best Practices FIRST - Saves hours of debugging
2. Use ES5 syntax only - No arrow functions, template literals
3. Use require('https') - Not $http or axios
4. Export environment variables - Don't just source
5. Preserve data flow - Always spread previous data

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• ❌ Using ES6 syntax in Code nodes
• ❌ Using $http for HTTP requests
• ❌ Not exporting environment variables
• ❌ Losing upstream data in transformations
• ❌ Hardcoding credentials

When Stuck

1. Check n8n-best-practices/README.md
2. Search relevant skill documentation
3. Check error message against known issues
4. Test code outside n8n first
5. Simplify workflow to isolate problem
