Skill for validating and writing correct n8n expression syntax, covering double curly brace format, $json/$node variables, webhook data access, and common error fixes
Overview
N8n Expression Syntax is a Claude Code skill that validates n8n workflow expression syntax and fixes common errors. It provides guidance when writing expressions using the {{ }} syntax, accessing $json and $node variables, troubleshooting expression evaluation errors, and working with webhook data in n8n workflows.
Key Features
- Expression syntax validation: Checks n8n expressions wrapped in
{{ }}for correctness and highlights syntax issues before they cause runtime failures. - Variable access guidance: Helps correctly reference
$json,$node, and other built-in n8n variables within expressions. - Error troubleshooting: Identifies and fixes common expression errors that occur during workflow execution.
- Webhook data handling: Assists with correctly accessing and transforming data received from webhooks in n8n workflows.
- Real-time feedback: Provides immediate validation and correction suggestions as expressions are being written.
Who is this for?
This skill is designed for developers and automation engineers building workflows in n8n who frequently encounter expression syntax issues. It is particularly helpful for those new to n8n's expression system or working with complex data transformations involving nested JSON and multi-node references.
