Creating Tasks AI Agent

[Luca2]

Hi guys,

I’m using an AI Agent in n8n to create tasks in Notion based on user input like:
“Create task for Customer X and Project Y”.

The agent works, but sometimes it creates the task twice - same title, same content.

Has anyone experienced this issue?

It seems like the flow runs twice, but I’m not sure why.

How can I reliably prevent duplicate creations?

Any tips appreciated!

Hey @Luca2

Try to tell LLM not to create the same task twice

You are under no circumstances to create the same task twice.
Hear me, you little robot! Never! Or else! 😡

I added this already but I can do it in a hard version like oyu

I mean this was just a chuckle on my part, but it did somewhat correctly touch on the part where if you need an Agent to do something, you need to explain in the the most straightforward way possible - that is - explain the guardrails around creating a task, instructions how to check and the criteria to consider new task to be unique.
