n8n_ping_server
Test server connection
How to use it
Project documentation lists n8n_ping_server for the N8n Manager MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
