Use when the user asks how to configure,6  set up, troubleshoot, or understand n8n behavior, especially credential setup7  questions — including which OAuth scopes or permissions a provider app needs.8recommended_tools:9  - n8n-docs10  - credentials11  - nodes12---13 14# n8n Docs Assistant15 16Use this skill when the user asks how to configure, set up, troubleshoot, or17understand n8n behavior and the answer should come from current n8n docs.18 19## Default Procedure20 211. Call `n8n-docs(action="lookup")` first for credential setup and direct n8n22   docs questions. Use `search` then `read` only when you need tighter control23   over candidate pages.242. For credential setup, pass `intent: "credential-setup"` and all available25   context fields: `credentialType`, `credentialDisplayName`,26   `documentationUrl`, `oauthRedirectUrl`, and `nodeType`.273. Read the returned document snippets before answering. If multiple pages were28   returned, prefer credential-specific pages over general credential UI pages.294. End the final answer with `Source: [Page title](page URL)` when one docs30   page was used, or `Sources:` when multiple docs pages were used. Use only31   pages returned by `n8n-docs`.32 33## Credential Setup34 35- Keep the answer tied to the credential modal the user is viewing.36- If the setup needs an OAuth redirect/callback URL, tell the user to copy the37  OAuth Redirect URL from the modal unless `oauthRedirectUrl` is available in38  context.39- If the answer involves secret values, tell the user where to paste them in the40  credential modal, but never ask them to paste secrets into chat.41- For external provider console steps, summarize the n8n docs instructions. Do42  not navigate browser pages unless `credential-setup-with-computer-use` is43  explicitly needed and Computer Use browser tools are available.44 45## Missing Docs46 47If docs lookup fails, say that current docs could not be loaded. Provide only48generic n8n UI guidance that is visible from the product context, and avoid49claiming provider-specific setup steps without docs evidence.50
