Why n8n-skills-pro?

Existing n8n skills projects have great content but suffer from:

• Infrequent updates - n8n releases almost daily, skills fall behind
• Outdated information - "Python has no external libraries" is no longer true
• Scattered knowledge - Best practices spread across multiple repos
• Missing community fixes - Workarounds discovered but not documented

n8n-skills-pro solves this by consolidating the best skills, adding community fixes, and maintaining monthly updates synced with n8n releases.

Unique Content

Python External Libraries

Unlike other skills that say "Python has no external libraries", we document the working solution:

# Enable in docker-compose.yml
n8n-runner:
  image: n8nio/runners:latest
  environment:
    - N8N_RUNNERS_EXTERNAL_ALLOW=*

Now use pandas, numpy, requests:

import pandas as pd
import requests

data = requests.get('https://api.example.com/data').json()
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
df['processed'] = df['value'] * 2

return [{'json': row} for row in df.to_dict('records')]

See community-fixes/python-external-libs for complete setup.
