Keep workflow failures visible and recoverable.

What it does

Harden n8n workflows with wired error paths, retries, catch-all alerts, and appropriate HTTP error responses.

When to use it

Use when building webhook/API or unattended workflows, when silent failures would lose user-visible work, or when addressing workflow error handling.

How to use it

It changes how the agent builds n8n workflows by requiring wired error handling for APIs and catch-all error workflows with retries for unattended work.

What you need · 3

The instructed workflow uses the community MCP to build and modify workflows; assigning an error workflow still requires the user to use the n8n UI.

Requires an n8n instance in which workflows can be built and error-workflow assignments can be configured through Workflow Settings.
