Let a scenario schedule on its own, with no one typing.

The MCP Client Tool node in n8n gives an AI Agent node access to the Ploffo tools. Useful for a fixed scenario — a form that comes in and immediately starts an approval round, for example.

  1. Add the node

    Add the MCP Client Tool node to your scenario, and connect it to an AI Agent node.

  2. Fill in the endpoint

    Enter https://mcp.ploffo.com as the SSE endpoint.

  3. Set up authentication

What to know

  • The node does not work on its own: it needs to be connected to an AI Agent node.
  • If in doubt, check the most recent n8n documentation for the exact way to connect — it changes from version to version sometimes.
