neurawork-git/n8n-autopilot ↗What it does
Drift-safely patch existing n8n workflow: comprehend→verify→patch→validate→deploy→test
Best for
Editing live n8n instances without breaking existing node parameters or introducing drift.
Inputs
- · target (workflow id/name)
- · change (description)
Outputs
- · refreshed local file
- · node contract verifications
- · patched workflow
- · validation pass/fail
- · deployed + verified
- · test outcome
Requires
- · n8n API
- · git
- · n8n-comprehender/verifier/author/validator/deployer/tester agents
Preconditions
Local mirror tracks remote workflows; target exists; drift detection via fetch + list
Failure modes
- · Local file stale → pull to remote base, refreshed=true
- · New node types unrecognized → fan-out contract verification
- · Validation fails → max 3 fix cycles before escalate
Trust signals
- · Refreshes to remote base before edit
- · Hard validate gate (sonnet)
- · Drift-safe push --verify enforced
