Tools required
Node.js, npm or npx, access to an n8n instance, a supported coding agent or CLI environment
Install & setup
Install the CLI from the n8n-as-code project, connect it to the target n8n instance, then use its code-first workflow commands to inspect nodes, generate typed workflows, and sync them through version-controlled files.

Quick brief
Use n8n-as-code when the agent should inspect n8n nodes, generate or update typed workflow definitions, and sync them back to n8n from code-managed files. Invoke it instead of editing workflows directly in n8n when the real need is a code-first authoring and synchronization workflow with reusable templates and version control. The scope boundary is narrow enough to be skill-shaped: authoring and syncing n8n workflows as code, not a generic n8n platform card or automation marketplace listing.
