How this actually runs
Every segment above rests on the same automation layer, and it is not something we invented. It is n8n, self-hosted on your server, wired to your agent over the Model Context Protocol. Three named parts, all of them inspectable before you buy anything.
- 1n8n
The workflow engine that does the actual work. Its maintainers describe it as a fair-code workflow automation platform with native AI capabilities, self-hosted or cloud, with 400+ integrations. Self-hosted is the mode we install, so the workflows and their credentials stay on your server.
- 2MCP Server Trigger
The piece most people miss. This node makes n8n act as a Model Context Protocol server, exposing a URL that MCP clients call to list and invoke n8n tools. That is the join: your agent does not reimplement your workflows, it calls the ones you already built as if they were its own tools.
- 3n8n template gallery
Where a build usually starts. The public gallery listed 11,129 community workflow templates when we last checked, grouped as AI, Sales, IT Ops, Marketing, Document Ops, Support. Most requests we receive map onto an existing template that we then adapt, rather than a blank canvas.
