n8n

The MCP Client Tool node, on an AI Agent node.

Kind MCP client
Transport MCP Client Tool node, HTTP Streamable.
Config The workflow canvas

Setup

  1. Add an AI Agent node to the workflow.
  2. Attach an MCP Client Tool node to its tool input.
  3. Set the endpoint below and choose HTTP Streamable as the transport.
  4. Create a Header Auth credential with name x-api-key and your key as the value.
Endpoint:    https://api.unzoi.com/mcp
Transport:   HTTP Streamable
Auth:        Header Auth
  Name:      x-api-key
  Value:     nai_your_key_here
Tools:       All  (or select the ones this workflow needs)

What differs here

  • The tool-selection field on the node is worth using: a workflow that only ever needs clustered stories should expose only list_stories, so the model cannot spend quota elsewhere.
  • The node retrieves the tool list when the workflow runs, so a key that is wrong shows up as a failing node rather than a missing tool.
  • n8n also has an MCP Server Trigger for the opposite direction — exposing your own workflows as MCP tools. It is not what you want here.
