🎉 n8n Docs have been refreshed (with new ways to use them)

Announcements

Hey community! We’ve refreshed n8n Docs with a new information architecture that makes it easier to navigate, discover related topics, and find answers faster.

Connect your agent directly to the docs (MCP)

You can now access our docs via MCP, so you can connect your agent to n8n Docs directly and use it as a source of truth while you build.

Contributing is easier (and more consistent)

We’ve added a contribution guide and a style guide to help you propose changes that fit our internal standards and keep the docs consistent.

If you want extra help getting your changes into shape, we also have skills in the n8n-docs repo that guide you in making contributions aligned with those standards.

Spot an issue?

If you notice broken links, missing content, or anything that looks off, please create an issue in the n8n-docs repo.

@kartikb This is really cool! How do we connect the agent to n8n docs though, through our instance?

For anyone wondering, this is the information for the docs MCP
it isn’t in the docs but site probing showed it up!

Endpoint: https://docs.n8n.io/~gitbook/mcp
Transport: streamable HTTP · Auth: none · Tools: searchDocumentation, getPage

Standard MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.):

{
“mcpServers”: {
“n8n-docs”: {
“url”: “https://docs.n8n.io/~gitbook/mcp”
}
}
}

For Claude Code specifically it’s one line:

claude mcp add --transport http n8n-docs https://docs.n8n.io/~gitbook/mcp

No, for now the two are via separate MCP servers that do different things

n8n instance MCP (https://<your-instance>/mcp-server/http) lets AI clients like Claude Code build, edit, and execute workflows in your instance.

The docs MCP (https://docs.n8n.io/~gitbook/mcp) is served by GitBook (the underlying documentation platform) and just gives AI tools access to n8n’s documentation content — no connection to your instance.

You can use both simultaneously in Claude, for example, by adding them as separate MCP servers in your config.

I made this one to go with the docs MCP, just to help people search the forum - N8n FORUM MCP!
