What it does
N8n Node Configuration is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Operation-aware node configuration guidance. Use when configuring nodes, understanding property dependencies, determining required fields, choosing between getnode detail levels, or learning common configuration patterns by node type.
Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/NODE_FAMILY_GOTCHAS.md` and `skill-report.json`).
It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Workflow automation. It works with n8n. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.
When your agent uses it
- Configuring nodes
- Understanding property dependencies
- Determining required fields
- Choosing between getnode detail levels
Example prompts
- “/n8n-node-configuration”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Operation-Aware Configuration
- Property Dependencies
- Progressive Discovery
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ad8daf7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are javascript).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
N8n Node Configuration loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 906 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 906 words (~4,245 tokens).
