n8n
Agent Readiness
The pre-flight check for n8n workflows. Detects loop patterns, credential exposure, and agent node issues in your workflow JSON files.
Common n8n Logic Flaws
Patterns that static analysis tools like linters don't catch.
Workflow Loops
Circular connections between nodes create infinite execution loops
Credential Exposure
API keys and tokens embedded in workflow JSON files
Agent Node Risks
AI agent nodes without proper bounds consuming excessive resources
Detection Patterns
n8n-specific detection patterns with code examples.
Circular Workflow Connection
CRITICALNode A outputs to Node B which outputs back to Node A.

}Getting Started
Run Inkog against your n8n workflows.
Run the scanner
npx -y @inkog-io/cli scan ./workflowsReview findings
Inkog parses your n8n workflow JSON and reports issues with severity levels and node references.
Address issues
Apply the suggested fixes based on severity and re-scan to verify.

n8n Readiness FAQ
Does Inkog scan n8n workflows?
Yes. Inkog has a dedicated n8n adapter that parses workflow JSON files and detects circular connections, agent node configurations, and credential exposure patterns.
How do I scan my n8n workflows?
Export your workflows as JSON and run: inkog scan ./workflows --framework n8n. Inkog detects loops, credential issues, and agent vulnerabilities.
