How to Inspect an Agent Skill Before You Adopt It — with n8n and Agentel MCP
Before giving an Agent a new Skill, what can you actually check? A description may sound promising, but it won't tell you everything you need to know. Which version is registered? What permissions are declared? Is there a license? What evidence back...

n8n Webhook Not Working? Test, Production, and 404 Fixes
An n8n webhook normally fails before the first workflow node runs. A 404 usually means the request did not match a registered webhook route. The common causes are a test URL with no active listener, a production URL for an unpublished workfl...

How I Built an OTel-Native GPU Profiler & LLM Gateway to Stop Bleeding Inference Costs
Running LLM workloads at scale—especially when integrating custom AI agents into n8n automation pipelines—creates a massive infrastructure blind spot. You build a brilliant workflow, fire thousands of requests, and suddenly your cloud bill skyrockets...
