Back up an entire n8n instance to a git-tracked directory. Exports all workflows, credentials, tags, and variables as a snapshot. NOT single-file export -- use /n8n-export for that. Use when creating full instance snapshots.
Run bulk activate/deactivate/archive/transfer operations across n8n workflows with mandatory dry-run first. Operates on existing tags -- NOT tag design (use /n8n-cli-tag-governance). Use for batch state changes and project reorgs.
Find dead workflows, orphaned credentials, and duplicate webhooks for deletion. Outputs safe-to-delete recommendations. NOT tagging -- use /n8n-cli-tag-governance for that. Use for quarterly hygiene sweeps.
Analyze n8n execution costs and usage patterns. Finds top consumers, hourly distribution, and triggers firing too often. Use when investigating high usage, before billing reviews, or optimizing execution counts.
Build an n8n workflow from an English description. Generates valid JSON and imports it via n8n-cli. Use when creating a new workflow from scratch based on a natural-language spec.
Audit n8n credentials and find gaps. Lists what exists, what workflows need, and what is missing. Use when auditing credentials, setting up new workflows, or troubleshooting auth failures.
Analyze failed n8n executions and suggest fixes. Pulls error logs, groups by pattern, and diagnoses root causes. NOT replay -- use /n8n-cli-replay to re-run a specific failure. Use when debugging workflow errors.
Map n8n workflow dependencies as a graph. Shows sub-workflow calls, credential refs, and webhook URLs as tree, mermaid, or JSON. Use when understanding interconnections before making changes.
