PMOVES n8n + Archon Bridge

Brings n8n and Archon online as the primary workflow and agent orchestration layer for Z890. These tools will be "busy" once email monitoring, data-review, research, and verification jobs are wired.

What it does

• Starts n8n (pmoves/docker-compose.n8n.yml) and Archon (pmoves/docker-compose.archon.submodule.yml) stacks.
• Deploys starter workflows for:
  • Email intake → triage → action
  • Research job → verification → notebook writeback
  • Legal document intake → attorney-review queue
  • Folder monitor trigger → E2B sandbox → result routing
• Uses Archon as the agent orchestration layer that can spawn, review, and hand off tasks.
• Exposes n8n public API for Hermes to invoke workflows.

Starter workflows

wf-email-intake

Polls Titanmail/Gmail via IMAP, posts new messages to n8n webhook, classifies, and routes to legal/finance/operations queues.

wf-research-verification

Accepts a research query, runs web search, fetches sources, cross-checks facts, and writes a verified summary to the notebook.

wf-legal-document-review

Triggered by folder monitor, sends document to E2B sandbox for extraction, runs legal-assist workflow, and queues for attorney review.

wf-daily-briefing

Runs each morning, summarizes emails, YouTube monitor output, and open kanban tasks, posts to the user's preferred messaging channel.

Running locally

# Start n8n
make -C pmoves up-n8n

# Start Archon
make -C pmoves up-archon

# Verify n8n API
curl -u "$N8N_BASIC_AUTH_USER:$N8N_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD" \

Hermes skill invocation

/skill pmoves-n8n-archon-bridge
Start the n8n and Archon stacks and deploy the starter workflows for email intake, research verification, and legal document review.

Archon integration

Archon is used as the agent-graph orchestrator:

• Agent Zero provides the runtime base.
• Archon agents receive tasks from n8n.
• Each agent emits a CHIT-signed event on completion.
• Hermes can delegate tasks to Archon agents via delegate_task or NATS subjects.

Cron job

hermes cron create "0 8 * * *" --prompt "Run PMOVES daily briefing: check n8n/Archon health, summarize email and YouTube monitor output, and post the briefing to the configured messaging channel." --skills pmoves-n8n-archon-bridge,pmoves-email-organizer,pmoves-yt-monitor

Zero-retention note

n8n stores workflow execution data in its SQLite/Postgres volume. For zero-retention operation, configure n8n execution retention (N8N_EXECUTIONS_DATA_MAX_AGE) or use E2B sandbox nodes for sensitive document steps.

Next implementation steps

1. Verify make -C pmoves up-n8n and make -C pmoves up-archon targets exist.
2. Create starter workflows in PMOVES-n8n/workflows/ or pmoves/integrations/*/n8n/flows/.
3. Add Archon agent definitions for email, research, and legal review.
4. Wire to the z890 room manifest as n8n-archon-bridge skill binding.
