What's on the bench.
N8n Node Configuration
Operation-aware node configuration guidance. Use when configuring nodes, understanding property dependencies, determining required fields, choosing between get_node detail levels, or learning common configuration patterns by node type. Always use this skill when setting up node parameters — it explains which fields are required for each operation, how displayOptions control field visibility, and when to use patchNodeField for surgical edits vs full node updates.
N8n MCP Tools Expert
Expert guide for using n8n-mcp MCP tools effectively. Use when searching for nodes, validating configurations, accessing templates, managing workflows, managing credentials, auditing instance security, or using any n8n-mcp tool. Provides tool selection guidance, parameter formats, and common patterns. IMPORTANT — Always consult this skill before calling any n8n-mcp tool — it prevents common mistakes like wrong nodeType formats, incorrect parameter structures, and inefficient tool usage. If the user mentions n8n, workflows, nodes, or automation and you have n8n MCP tools available, use this skill first.
N8n Expression Syntax
Validate n8n expression syntax and fix common errors. Use when writing n8n expressions, using {{}} syntax, accessing $json/$node variables, troubleshooting expression errors, mapping data between nodes, or referencing webhook data in workflows. Use this skill whenever configuring node fields that reference data from previous nodes — expressions are how n8n passes data between nodes, and getting the syntax wrong is the most common source of workflow errors.
N8n Code Python
Write Python code in n8n Code nodes. Use when writing Python in n8n, using _input/_json/_node syntax, working with standard library, or need to understand Python limitations in n8n Code nodes. Use this skill when the user specifically requests Python for an n8n Code node. Note — JavaScript is recommended for 95% of use cases — only use Python when the user explicitly prefers it or the task requires Python-specific standard library capabilities (regex, hashlib, statistics). EXCEPTION — for Python in the AI-agent-callable Custom Code Tool (@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.toolCode), use the n8n-code-tool skill instead (input is _query, return must be a string).
N8n Code JavaScript
Write JavaScript code in n8n Code nodes. Use when writing JavaScript in n8n, using $input/$json/$node syntax, making HTTP requests with $helpers, working with dates using DateTime, troubleshooting Code node errors, choosing between Code node modes, or doing any custom data transformation in n8n. Always use this skill when a workflow needs a Code node — whether for data aggregation, filtering, API calls, format conversion, batch processing logic, or any custom JavaScript. Covers SplitInBatches loop patterns, cross-iteration data, pairedItem, and real-world production patterns. EXCEPTION — for the AI-agent-callable Custom Code Tool (@n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain.toolCode, a tool attached to an AI Agent), use the n8n-code-tool skill instead; it has a different runtime contract.
Yt Competitive Analysis
Analyze YouTube channels for outlier videos and packaging patterns. Identifies what's working (2x+ average views) across any set of channels. Use when asked for YouTube competitive analysis, viral video patterns, or packaging/title inspiration.
X Longform Post
Write long-form X (Twitter) posts and threads in a founder/CEO voice. Use when drafting X articles, long tweets, thought leadership threads, or viral content. Produces contrarian, data-backed posts with ASCII diagrams and code block visuals. Includes mandatory AI humanizer pass (24-pattern detector) before finalizing.
Podcast Pipeline
Podcast-to-Everything content pipeline. Takes a podcast RSS feed or raw transcript and generates a full cross-platform content calendar: short-form video clips, Twitter/X threads, LinkedIn articles, newsletter sections, quote cards, blog outlines with SEO keywords, and YouTube Shorts/TikTok scripts. Scores each piece by viral potential (novelty × controversy × utility) and deduplicates against recent output. Use when asked to: "repurpose this podcast", "turn this episode into content", "podcast content calendar", "extract clips from this episode", "podcast to social", "content from RSS feed", "batch process episodes", or any request to turn podcast/audio content into a multi-platform content plan.
Cold Outbound Optimizer
Design, analyze, and optimize cold outbound email campaigns for Instantly. Handles end-to-end ICP definition, expert panel scoring (recursive to 90+), sequence copywriting, infrastructure audit, capacity planning, and implementation docs. Use when asked to build cold outbound sequences, optimize cold email, analyze outbound campaigns, build sales sequences, build Instantly sequences, create cold outbound strategies, or design email campaigns. Supports both "start from scratch" and "optimize existing" modes.
Finance Ops
AI-powered financial analysis suite. Generates executive CFO briefings from QuickBooks exports (P&L, Balance Sheet, General Ledger, Cash Flow, etc.) with anomaly detection, burn rate, runway analysis, and scenario modeling. Also estimates codebase development costs with organizational overhead and AI ROI analysis. Triggers on: 'CFO briefing', 'financial analysis', 'cost briefing', 'expense review', 'runway analysis', 'burn rate', 'cost estimate', 'how much would this cost to build', 'development cost', 'Claude ROI'.
Deck Generator
Generate professional presentations with AI-generated images. Use when asked to create a deck, presentation, pitch deck, or slides. Supports style presets (whiteboard, corporate, minimalist, etc). Uses Imagen 4.0 API for image generation and Google Slides API for assembly. Produces full decks from markdown content specs in minutes.
Closed Loop Analytics Upgrade
Upgrade marketing, content, SEO/AEO/GEO, and revenue skills so changes are judged by platform analytics instead of vibes. Use when applying closed-loop learning to X, YouTube, SEO, AEO/GEO, outbound, paid creative, or revenue workflows.
Autoresearch
Run Karpathy-style autoresearch optimization on any content. Generates 50+ variants, scores with a 5-expert simulated panel, evolves winners through multiple rounds, outputs optimized version + full experiment log. Use when optimizing landing pages, email sequences, ad copy, headlines, form pages, CTA text, or any conversion-focused content. Triggers on "optimize this page", "run autoresearch", "score these variants", "A/B test this copy".
Search and retrieve content from Twitter/X. Get user info, tweets, replies, followers, communities, spaces, and trends via twitterapi.io. Use when user mentions Twitter, X, or tweets.
