n8n-multi-instance
Use when an n8n-mcp account targets more than one n8n instance — i.e. the `n8n_instances` tool is available, the user mentions multiple n8n instances or environments (prod vs staging, several teams or clients), several agents or chats work on one account in parallel, a workflow / datatable / credential / execution call returns an unexpected NOT_FOUND or reads data you don't recognize, or a call is refused with `INSTANCE_AMBIGUOUS` or `INSTANCE_NOT_FOUND`. Covers naming the target instance on each call with the `instance` argument, setting the default with `switch`, verifying the target before
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 6,465 stars are split between them (about 647 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 79/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit c640094d949c, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
