# AUTOMATION READY: n8n Automation Blueprint Generator

## Purpose
Convert a plain-English workflow into an n8n build plan with trigger, nodes, field mapping, error handling, and test payloads.

## When to Use
Use this when the user needs to: Convert a plain-English workflow into an n8n build plan with trigger, nodes, field mapping, error handling, and test payloads. It is designed for repeatable agent or automation work, not one-off fluffy prompting.

## Inputs Required
- Workflow goal
- Trigger event
- Apps involved
- Data fields
- Success criteria

## Workflow
1. Identify trigger and endpoint requirements
2. Map each node with input and output fields
3. Add credential and permission notes
4. Add error branch and retry rules
5. Create test payload and expected result

## Output Format
n8n implementation blueprint with node list, field map, tests, and approval gates.

## Quality Rules
- Ground every claim in supplied inputs or clearly mark it as an assumption.
- Prefer specific fields, examples, and decision points over generic advice.
- Include a test command and pass criteria so the skill can be evaluated.
- Keep the output usable by a human first and automation-ready second.

## Guardrails
- Do not send emails, publish posts, contact leads, change calendars, spend money, delete data, or alter production systems without explicit human approval.
- Do not invent facts, private details, legal claims, prices, or external data.
- For web or profile research, use current sources and separate evidence from inference.
- For connected tools, use the minimum permission needed and log the action taken.

## Test Command
Run this skill on a simple example for n8n Automation Blueprint Generator and return the expected output structure plus any missing inputs.
