View n8n Shopify Workflows Packn8n Workflow Linter
n8n silently drops parameters it doesn't recognize. This linter tells you before your workflow breaks.
What it does
Check n8n workflow JSON before you import it, share it or commit it. The linter compares every node against a snapshot of the real n8n node definitions (n8n-nodes-base and @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain 2.46.7: 572 node types) and reports what n8n would silently drop or break.
Python 3.9+, no dependencies, offline. It never connects to your n8n instance.
python3 -m n8nlint check my-workflow.json # or a folder of exports
python3 -m n8nlint check --strict workflows/ # warnings fail too (CI)
python3 -m n8nlint check --json workflows/ # machine-readable
python3 -m n8nlint creds my-workflow.json # setup checklist: credentials + REPLACE_ME fields
python3 -m n8nlint info # which n8n version the snapshot coversWhat you get
The screenshot is real output from the kit’s own commands. Tested from a fresh download of this exact zip: ./run_tests.sh ran 36 tests OK on Python 3.13 and 3.10.
What it catches
| Code | Problem |
|---|---|
| E001 / E002 | not a workflow file, node missing name/type/typeVersion/position/parameters |
| E010 / E011 | duplicate node names or ids (connections and expressions resolve by name) |
| E020 / E022 | unknown node type, or a typeVersion that node does not have |
| E024 | a credential type the node does not accept |
| E030 / E031 / E033 | misspelled parameter, invalid option value, invalid collection option value |
| E040 / E042 | connections from or to nodes that no longer exist (renamed or deleted) |
| E041 / E043 / E044 / E045 / E046 | unknown connection type, output index the node does not have, AI connection from a node without that output, mismatched types, target without that input |
| E060 | hard-coded secrets: OpenAI/Anthropic keys, Shopify, Slack, GitHub, HubSpot, AWS, Stripe, Google keys, Bearer tokens |
| E091 / W090 | AI Agent, LLM Chain, Text Classifier or Information Extractor with no chat model connected; a Text Classifier prompt template missing {categories} (the model never sees your categories) |
| E080 | $('Node name') or $node["Node name"] expressions that point at a node that does not exist |
| W025 | hidden/deprecated nodes (Function, Function Item, Cron, Interval, ...) |
| W032 | unknown option inside a collection |
| W047 / W048 / W050 | disconnected nodes, nodes nothing runs, no trigger |
| W062 | pinData saved in the file (sample data can contain real customer data) |
| I021 / I023 / I061 / I063 | community nodes (not checked), older typeVersions, credential ids, active: true |
Why it matters: n8n's parameter resolver (NodeHelpers.getNodeParameters in n8n-workflow) silently drops parameters it does not know, so a misspelled field in hand-written or AI-generated JSON just disappears and the node falls back to its default. We checked this against n8n-workflow itself; the test suite here covers each rule.

Use it with Claude Code
This folder is a Claude Code plugin with the n8n-workflow-linter skill. Claude lints any workflow it writes or edits and fixes errors before showing it to you.
Honest limits
- A clean lint means the JSON matches the n8n node definitions. It does not prove the workflow does what you want; test it in n8n with sample data.
- Parameter visibility rules (displayOptions) are not evaluated, so a parameter that exists for another operation of the same node is not flagged.
- Options loaded from your account (channel lists, sheet names) and expressions are not checked.
- Community nodes are listed but not checked. The snapshot is n8n 2.46.7; newer n8n versions may add node versions.
