What n8n-as-code Gives You

n8n-as-code turns a repository into a full n8n development workspace:

The repository stores workflow files, generated agent context, and workspace-safe configuration. Secrets and machine-local runtime state stay local.

Quick Start

VS Code / Cursor

1. Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX.
2. Open a folder or .code-workspace.
3. Click on the extension icon then on the gear icon to configure your workspace.
4. Create or select an n8n environment.
5. Pull or create workflows with the integrated Agent Workbench or the agent of your choice.

The configuration UI uses the same model as the CLI: workspace environments are repository context, local managed instances are machine resources.
