n8n Rebuild - Workflows From Scratch
Time: 3-5 hours
Status: ACTIVE — REBUILD FROM SCRATCH (decision: March 4, 2026)
Priority: Tier 2 - Major Infrastructure
Documentation:
docs/troubleshooting/n8n-node-registry-corruption.mdRebuild n8n instance on TX1 with fresh workflows from scratch. Original workflows are considered abandoned — do not attempt to restore them.
Problem: Core nodes (HTTP Request, Execute Command) fail with "Node not found" errors due to corrupted node registry.
Decision (March 4, 2026): Rather than restoring old workflows, rebuild from scratch. Cleaner, more maintainable, aligned with current infrastructure state.
Current Workaround: PHP script (
sync_codex.php) handling Codex Git sync directly. Functional but not the long-term solution.Rebuild Procedure:
