What you'll learn
Agent 1: a basic chatbot, built by hand
See how n8n nodes fit together, so you know what is happening under the hood.
Agent 2: a chatbot that answers from your own website (RAG)
Built by describing it to Claude through n8n MCP, with no dragging or node hunting.
Agent 3: an email triage agent
It reads, sorts and drafts replies for your inbox, built the same way in minutes.
Take home: my n8n agent pattern selector Claude skill
The skill I use to pick the right agent design, with best practices included.
Why this topic matters
Note: The session runs on Microsoft Teams.
You’ve used ChatGPT or Claude. You’ve probably opened n8n, dragged a few nodes, and got stuck. Most non-developers quit there.
There’s now a faster way: describe the agent to Claude and let it build the workflow in n8n for you. I’ll build three agents live so you can see both methods side by side and know which to use on Monday.
Built for PMs and leaders with no coding background.
