🔥📈🤖 AI Agent for n8n Creators Leaderboard - Discover Popular Workflows

Key Features and Highlights

This workflow aggregates and analyzes statistical data of workflow creators and their works within the n8n community, automatically generating detailed creator leaderboard reports. By fetching JSON data files from GitHub, it consolidates access and usage metrics of creators and workflows, then leverages AI-powered processing to produce structured, easy-to-read Markdown reports. This enables users to intuitively understand the most popular workflows and top contributors in the community.

Core Problems Addressed

• Automates the collection and analysis of usage data for n8n community creators and their workflows, eliminating the complexity and fragmentation of manual statistics gathering.
• Helps users quickly identify high-traffic workflows and active creators, fostering knowledge sharing and community collaboration.
• Utilizes AI to generate comprehensive and easy-to-understand reports, lowering the barrier to data interpretation and enhancing data utilization efficiency.

Use Cases

• Community managers monitoring and showcasing active contributors and trending workflows to boost community engagement.
• Workflow creators reviewing the usage performance of their works to optimize design and promotion strategies.
• New users or team members quickly finding high-quality, popular automation templates to accelerate onboarding with n8n.
• Data analysts gaining insights into community trends and user preferences based on leaderboard data.

Main Workflow Steps

1. Data Acquisition

   • Retrieve aggregated JSON statistics for creators and workflows from GitHub using HTTP request nodes (stats_aggregate_creators and stats_aggregate_workflows).
   • Define GitHub base paths and filenames via “Global Variables” nodes.

2. Data Processing

   • Parse creator and workflow data, split arrays, sort, and limit the number of returned results (e.g., Top 25 creators, Top 300 workflows).
   • Merge creator data with corresponding workflows by matching usernames.

3. Filtering and Aggregation

   • Filter data based on input usernames to focus on all relevant data for a single creator.
   • Aggregate and summarize key metrics for the specified creator.

4. AI-Powered Report Generation

   • Invoke the OpenAI model (gpt-4o-mini) with preset prompts to generate a detailed Markdown report including summaries, tables, and community analysis.
   • Convert the report into a text file and save it locally with a timestamp for easy management.

5. Trigger Mechanism

   • Supports triggering via chat messages (When chat message received node) or calls from other workflows, enabling flexible integration.

Systems and Services Involved

• GitHub: Hosts and provides JSON data sources for creator and workflow statistics.
• OpenAI API: AI language model used to generate comprehensive Markdown reports.
• n8n Nodes: A combination of HTTP request, data splitting, sorting, filtering, aggregation, file read/write, and AI agent nodes collaboratively execute the workflow.
• Local File System: Stores the generated Markdown report files.

Target Users and Value

• n8n Community Managers: Quickly gain insights into contributors and popular workflows to support decision-making and promotion.
• Workflow Developers: Understand the impact of their workflows to optimize and promote high-value automation processes.
• New Users and Teams: Use the leaderboard to rapidly find high-quality workflow templates worth referencing and using.
