A full walkthrough of building a working AI agent in n8n — from trigger to tool calls to memory — with the exact nodes and prompts.
Queue mode, Postgres tuning, credential encryption and the observability stack that keeps a self-hosted n8n cluster boring in the best way.
Most agent demos collapse in production. Here is the architecture, evaluation loop and guardrail stack teams use to ship agents customers can rely on.
Wire a Zapier automation that uses AI Actions to enrich leads and route them to the right owner, with fallbacks.
Rollbacks, break routes, retry ladders and dead-letter queues — the Make patterns that turn fragile scenarios into dependable pipelines.
Learn the exact error-handling patterns — Break, Resume, Rollback, Commit — that keep Make scenarios running in production.
Where an agent adds value inside a deterministic pipeline, where it destroys reliability, and the interfaces that let both live together.
OCR is a solved problem. Everything downstream — extraction, validation, routing — is where the money and the mistakes now live.
Lead routing, enrichment, CRM hygiene and forecasting — a reference stack that survives the jump from ten to a hundred sellers.
What to log from every automation run, how to alert without waking anyone unnecessarily, and the dashboards that catch regressions early.
Document parsing, video summarisation and UI testing — three multimodal workflows with measurable ROI, plus the failure modes to expect.
