What problem does it solve?

This Skill cuts through the complexity of n8n node configuration by teaching you the operation-aware, dependency-driven approach used by experts, so you can set up nodes like HTTP Request, Slack, and Postgres without guesswork.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Operation-Aware Setup: Shows how different operations (e.g., POST vs. GET) change a node's required fields.
  • Dependency Mapping: Explains how fields appear or disappear based on other settings (like sendBody controlling the body field).
  • Pattern Library: Provides ready-to-use configuration templates for the most common nodes and tasks.
  • Use Case: You're configuring an HTTP Request node to POST JSON data but the body field won't appear. This Skill explains you must first set sendBody: true, then the correct fields will be shown.

Quick Start

I need to configure a Slack node to post a message to the #general channel. What are the required fields and what's the minimal configuration?
