What it does
“Offer the three most common automations for a user as a single-choice card, from your own knowledge of their team and their apps, then build the one they choose once they confirm, or offer more. The system preloads it on onboarding threads, where the opening card already asked the user about themselves. Use it on other threads when the user asks what they could automate or wants ideas for a first workflow.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
This skill suggests three relevant automations to users based on their team role and connected apps, then builds the chosen workflow using the build-workflow tool. It guides users through picking an automation by reflecting their needs and showing social proof, then confirms before building.
When to use it
- User asks for automation ideas or what they could automate
- Onboarding flow where user has shared their team and apps
- User describes a specific task they want to automate
- User wants suggestions for their first workflow
When not to
- User asks about n8n mechanics or technical setup details
- User declines automations or wants to stop onboarding
- User asks unrelated questions outside automation suggestions
