Recent updates
n8n@2.30.3
Release 2.30.3 is primarily documented as a single editor bug fix: preserving AI Assistant thread state when handing off in the editor. However, the code diff excerpt shows significant generated PostgreSQL schema changes that are not mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.29.10
Release 2.29.10 is documented as a single bug fix in the editor, keeping the AI Assistant thread state intact on editor hand-off. The provided code diff, however, includes multiple unrelated changes across agent runtime behavior, skill loading schemas, AI tracing, API type definitions, and database schema documentation.
BreakingSecurityn8n@2.29.9
The provided release notes for n8n@2.29.9 contain no human-documented changes beyond the autogenerated PR/review header. The code diff, however, shows multiple functional changes across agents runtime, skill loading payload schema, AI-related DTOs, sandbox prompt helpers, and database schema documentation.
BreakingFeaturesn8n@2.30.2
n8n 2.30.2 includes two core bug fixes related to expression evaluation. It improves how an expression isolate is acquired when resolving node inputs and node parameters, which should prevent incorrect or unstable expression resolution.
n8n@2.29.8
Release n8n@2.29.8 documents two core bug fixes related to execution redaction null-safety and Postgres-specific database connection recovery. However, the provided code diff snippets show a large number of repository-level additions focused on agent skills and documentation, which are not mentioned in the release notes.
n8n@2.30.1
n8n 2.30.1 ships one core feature related to token exchange provisioning and several targeted bug fixes. The main fixes address chat behavior when using a separate webhook server and improve robustness of execution redaction when run-data slots are missing.
Featuresn8n@1.123.64
The provided release notes for n8n@1.123.64 contain no human readable change list, only an auto-generated comparison link. The code diff for this release is dominated by changes to GitHub Actions and release automation under the .github directory, rather than application runtime code.
n8n@2.30.0
n8n 2.30.0 adds several developer-facing capabilities, including a unified webhook base URL env var (N8N_WEBHOOK_URL) and new public API endpoints for evaluation test runs, plus the ability to export projects via the public API. The release is primarily a bug-fix update with multiple stability improvements across AI agent behavior, API filtering, and core/server error handling.
Featuresn8n@2.29.7
The release notes for n8n@2.29.7 only document three bug fixes across the core, editor, and Salesforce node. The provided code diff, however, shows substantially broader changes including new database schema/migrations, changes to agent runtime behavior and cost stamping, new prompt helper exports, and removals/modifications to skill loading payload fields.
Featuresn8n@2.28.7
Release 2.28.7 release notes document a single bug fix: pinning langgraph and langgraph-checkpoint to prevent broken npm installs. The code diff for this release shows multiple additional behavior changes across networking (Digest auth), expression runtime (Date marshaling), MCP client error formatting, and substantial workflow verification logic changes in the instance-ai package.
Featuresn8n@2.29.6
n8n v2.29.6 includes a single core bug fix related to dependency installation stability. It pins the langgraph and langgraph-checkpoint packages to prevent broken npm installs during installation or upgrades.
n8n@2.29.5
Release 2.29.5 has essentially no human-written release notes (only an auto-generated stub). The code diff shows meaningful internal changes around Instance AI prompt stability, Anthropic request caching directives, and frontend telemetry and modal payload handling, none of which are described in the provided release notes.
Featuresn8n@2.28.6
Release n8n@2.28.6 is presented as a set of editor and core bug fixes, including preventing duplicate zod instances, and improving AI Gateway notices and hinting. However, the actual code diff shows additional behavior changes in areas like HTTP digest auth, expression Date marshalling, and significant workflow verification and orchestration logic in Instance AI, none of which are mentioned in the release notes.
Breakingn8n@2.29.4
n8n v2.29.4 is a patch release focused on stability improvements across the Basic LLM Chain node and the editor, plus a core fix to avoid duplicate Zod instances that can break npm installs. It also adds a new capability for the AI Assistant to understand community node type definitions.
Featuresn8n@2.28.5
Release 2.28.5 notes describe three bug fixes: preserving Date values in the expression isolate, improving the editor UI by showing Free credits for certain tool-variant nodes, and normalizing empty 204 responses on the Salesforce JWT auth path. The provided code diff content, however, appears dominated by additions of internal agent skill documentation under the `.agents/skills` directory.
n8n@2.29.3
n8n 2.29.3 is a small release with one core feature change and a UI bug fix. The core update adjusts how Instance AI billing credits are routed, while the editor fix refines parameter input sizing.
Featuresn8n@1.123.63
Release 1.123.63 is documented as a core bug fix to preserve Date values when passed into the expression isolate. The provided code diff, however, shows a large, undocumented overhaul of GitHub Actions and CI-related automation (telemetry, composite actions, and release scripting).
n8n@2.29.2
n8n@2.29.2 ships a small set of user-facing fixes (date marshaling in the expression isolate, Salesforce JWT auth 204 normalization, and editor UI updates). The code diff also reveals a substantial internal database and publication-flow change that is not mentioned in the release notes.
Featuresn8n@2.29.1
n8n 2.29.1 focuses on targeted fixes for AI Agent and credential-related behavior, plus one small capability toggle for the Python task runner. The editor UI also improves how it hides parameters that are incompatible with managed gateway setups.
Featuresn8n@2.28.4
n8n 2.28.4 primarily ships bug fixes across AI Agent memory, project variable precedence, and digest auth challenge handling. It also includes a couple of editor/core enhancements. However, the code diff includes several substantial Instance AI workflow verification and setup-routing behavior changes that are not reflected in the release notes.
