The dependency index already records a row per node type per workflow, kept current on every save, and the workflow repository already resolves a `nodeTypes` filter against it. No caller ever supplied one, so "which workflows use Postgres" meant fetching every workflow and parsing its nodes, and "what is this folder built out of" was not answerable at all. - `workflows(list)` gains `nodeTypes`. It matches the node a workflow actually contains, so a workflow merely NAMED for a service is correctly excluded and one that uses it under an unrelated name is correctly found. - `workflows(node-usage)` returns the node-type histogram for a scope, most-used first, and composes with the folder arguments. Offered only where the adapter can answer it, so the agent is never shown a summary it would get an error from. - Counts DISTINCT workflows rather than node instances: three HTTP Request nodes in one workflow are one user of the type, which is the question being asked. - The scan is capped, and a capped scan says its counts are a lower bound — silently truncating would read as a total, and these are numbers a caller quotes back to the user. - Gated separately from folder context. The two answer different questions (where something lives vs what it is made of), and one switch could not tell which of them moved a result. Shared field descriptions are hoisted to constants because the schema sanitizer requires a single description per field name across the action union. |

What does n8n mean?
Short answer: It means "nodemation" and is pronounced as n-eight-n.
Long answer: "I get that question quite often (more often than I expected) so I decided it is probably best to answer it here. While looking for a good name for the project with a free domain I realized very quickly that all the good ones I could think of were already taken. So, in the end, I chose nodemation. 'node-' in the sense that it uses a Node-View and that it uses Node.js and '-mation' for 'automation' which is what the project is supposed to help with. However, I did not like how long the name was and I could not imagine writing something that long every time in the CLI. That is when I then ended up on 'n8n'." - Jan Oberhauser, Founder and CEO, n8n.io
