Recent updates
n8n@1.123.66
n8n@1.123.66 primarily documents a single bug fix, for the Code Node where external modules were not working even when allowed in n8n version 1.x. No other runtime, API, or breaking changes are mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.31.3
Release n8n@2.31.3 is documented as two core bug fixes. The provided release notes do not mention any database schema or workflow scheduling model changes, but the code diff shows several schema-level modifications that can impact existing installations.
n8n@2.30.7
Release 2.30.7 notes only two core changes, both described as bug fixes: adjusting linting for community packages, and signing SES requests with the SES service name. However, the provided code diff shows a much larger set of changes dominated by new repository content under .agents/skills, which is not mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.31.2
n8n 2.31.2 primarily includes bug fixes. The main functional change is that MCP workflow executions now require an execution mode, which may cause existing MCP-based integrations or workflow invocations to fail if they omitted this field.
Breakingn8n@2.30.6
Release 2.30.6 is documented as a single core bug fix: requiring execution mode for MCP workflow executions. The provided code diff, however, shows multiple unrelated and substantial changes across computer-use tooling, gateway module activation, shell sandbox configuration, and AI tracing redaction behavior.
BreakingSecurityFeaturesn8n@2.31.1
n8n v2.31.1 is a bug fix release focused on core and editor behavior around AI assistant workflows and execution accounting. It also fixes credential token binding and preserves node aliases when generating AI tool variants.
n8n@2.30.5
The release notes for n8n@2.30.5 document two core bug fixes and one editor feature experiment. However, the actual code diff contains additional, substantial changes not mentioned in the release notes, including security-related AI tracing redaction and a refactor of the computer-use tool activation/sandbox lifecycle.
SecurityFeaturesn8n@2.31.0
n8n v2.31.0 includes a large set of bug fixes across core execution, AI Agent and MCP tooling, editor UI behavior, and multiple nodes. The documented changes focus heavily on AI-assisted workflow improvements, MCP compatibility tweaks, and smaller reliability fixes. However, the code diff also reveals database schema changes related to scheduling that are not described in the provided release notes text.
Featuresn8n@2.29.11
Release n8n@2.29.11 documents three bug fixes: decoupling execution visibility from a sharing license feature, settling webhook execution promises on early errors, and restoring ASCII simplified property keys for Notion on earlier node versions. The provided code diff excerpt, however, shows many newly added repository documentation and agent skill markdown files rather than the specific core webhook and execution changes described in the notes.
n8n@2.30.4
n8n 2.30.4 is a bug-fix release focused on core execution handling and a Notion node regression. It decouples execution visibility from a sharing-license related feature, improves webhook execution promise settling on early errors, and restores simplified ASCII property keys behavior for Notion on earlier node versions.
n8n@1.123.65
Release 1.123.65 notes only a single documented core bug fix related to settling a webhook execution promise on early errors. However, the provided diff for this release is dominated by changes to the repository's GitHub Actions and CI/release automation, including new actions, renamed/removed actions, and modifications to release-version generation logic. None of these CI and automation changes are mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.30.3
Release 2.30.3 is primarily documented as a single editor bug fix: preserving AI Assistant thread state when handing off in the editor. However, the code diff excerpt shows significant generated PostgreSQL schema changes that are not mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.29.10
Release 2.29.10 is documented as a single bug fix in the editor, keeping the AI Assistant thread state intact on editor hand-off. The provided code diff, however, includes multiple unrelated changes across agent runtime behavior, skill loading schemas, AI tracing, API type definitions, and database schema documentation.
BreakingSecurityn8n@2.29.9
The provided release notes for n8n@2.29.9 contain no human-documented changes beyond the autogenerated PR/review header. The code diff, however, shows multiple functional changes across agents runtime, skill loading payload schema, AI-related DTOs, sandbox prompt helpers, and database schema documentation.
BreakingFeaturesn8n@2.30.2
n8n 2.30.2 includes two core bug fixes related to expression evaluation. It improves how an expression isolate is acquired when resolving node inputs and node parameters, which should prevent incorrect or unstable expression resolution.
n8n@2.29.8
Release n8n@2.29.8 documents two core bug fixes related to execution redaction null-safety and Postgres-specific database connection recovery. However, the provided code diff snippets show a large number of repository-level additions focused on agent skills and documentation, which are not mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.30.1
n8n 2.30.1 ships one core feature related to token exchange provisioning and several targeted bug fixes. The main fixes address chat behavior when using a separate webhook server and improve robustness of execution redaction when run-data slots are missing.
Featuresn8n@1.123.64
The provided release notes for n8n@1.123.64 contain no human readable change list, only an auto-generated comparison link. The code diff for this release is dominated by changes to GitHub Actions and release automation under the .github directory, rather than application runtime code.
n8n@2.30.0
n8n 2.30.0 adds several developer-facing capabilities, including a unified webhook base URL env var (N8N_WEBHOOK_URL) and new public API endpoints for evaluation test runs, plus the ability to export projects via the public API. The release is primarily a bug-fix update with multiple stability improvements across AI agent behavior, API filtering, and core/server error handling.
Featuresn8n@2.29.7
The release notes for n8n@2.29.7 only document three bug fixes across the core, editor, and Salesforce node. The provided code diff, however, shows substantially broader changes including new database schema/migrations, changes to agent runtime behavior and cost stamping, new prompt helper exports, and removals/modifications to skill loading payload fields.
