# n8n Docs Assistant

Use this skill when the user asks how to configure, set up, troubleshoot, or
understand n8n behavior and the answer should come from current n8n docs.

Before calling `n8n-docs`, load it via `load_tool` (search "n8n docs" if it is
not visible).

## Default Procedure

1. Load `n8n-docs` via `load_tool` if needed, then call `n8n-docs(action="lookup")`
   first for credential setup and direct n8n docs questions. Use `search` then
   `read` only when you need tighter control over candidate pages.
2. For credential setup, pass `intent: "credential-setup"` and all available
   context fields: `credentialType`, `credentialDisplayName`,
   `documentationUrl`, `oauthRedirectUrl`, and `nodeType`.
3. Read the returned document snippets before answering. If multiple pages were
   returned, prefer credential-specific pages over general credential UI pages.
4. End the final answer with `Source: [Page title](page URL)` when one docs
   page was used, or `Sources:` when multiple docs pages were used. Use only
   pages returned by `n8n-docs`.

## Credential Setup

- Keep the answer tied to the credential modal the user is viewing.
- If the setup needs an OAuth redirect/callback URL, tell the user to copy the
  OAuth Redirect URL from the modal unless `oauthRedirectUrl` is available in
  context.
- If the answer involves secret values, tell the user where to paste them in the
  credential modal, but never ask them to paste secrets into chat.
- For external provider console steps, summarize the n8n docs instructions. Do
  not navigate browser pages unless `credential-setup-with-computer-use` is
  explicitly needed and Computer Use browser tools are available.

## Missing Docs

If docs lookup fails, say that current docs could not be loaded. Provide only
generic n8n UI guidance that is visible from the product context, and avoid
claiming provider-specific setup steps without docs evidence.
