Task #48: n8n Rebuild
Created: April 7, 2026
Status: PENDING
Priority: MEDIUM
Location: Command Center (63.143.34.217)
Overview
Rebuild n8n automation workflows from scratch. The previous n8n instance was wiped during infrastructure consolidation. This is the automation backbone for Firefrost operations.
Current State
- n8n is installed on Command Center
- URL: https://n8n.firefrostgaming.com
- No active workflows (clean slate)
Planned Integrations
Buffer MCP (Social Media Automation)
Buffer provides an MCP Client node for n8n, enabling automated social media posting.
Covers: Bluesky, X (Twitter), TikTok
Does NOT cover: Facebook, Instagram (would need separate Meta integration)
Configuration:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Node Type | MCP Client |
| Server Transport | HTTP Streamable |
| MCP Endpoint URL | https://mcp.buffer.com/mcp |
| Authentication | Bearer Auth |
| API Key | (from https://publish.buffer.com/settings/api) |
Automation Ideas:
| Trigger | Action |
|---|---|
| New subscriber (Arbiter webhook) | Draft "Welcome!" post |
| Server status change | Auto-announce server online/offline |
| ModpackChecker finds update | Post "New version available!" |
| RSS feed (blog/news) | Auto-draft post with link |
| Weekly cron | Send summary of scheduled posts to Discord |
| Form submission | Create draft from submitted content |
Example Workflow: New Subscriber Announcement
Webhook (Arbiter) → Filter (new subscriber) → MCP Client (Buffer) →
Create draft: "Welcome @{username} to the Firefrost community! 🔥❄️"

Pterodactyl API
Server management automation:
- Scheduled restarts (ties into Task #94)
- Backup triggers
- Resource monitoring alerts
Priority Workflows to Build
- Discord notification pipeline — Server alerts, subscriber events
- Buffer social automation — Event-triggered posts
- Weekly digest — Summary of activity sent to Trinity
- Backup verification — Confirm backups completed
Related Tasks
- Task #92: Desktop MCP + Dispatch (Buffer MCP for conversational management)
- Task #94: Global Restart Scheduler (could trigger via n8n)
- Task #97: Trinity Console Social Hub (parked — n8n approach preferred)
Notes
- n8n MCP Client requires Node.js workflow
- Buffer API is in beta — features may be limited
- Rate limit: 60 requests/user/minute on Buffer API
