MCP Personal Assistant Workflow Description This workflow integrates multiple productivity tools into a single AI-powered assistant using n8n, acting as a centralized control hub to receive and execute tasks across Google Calendar, Gmail, Google Drive, LinkedIn, Twitter, and more. --- ✅ Key Capabilities - AI Agent + Tool Use: Built using n8n's AI Agent and MCP system, enabling intelligent multi-step reasoning. - Tool Integration: - Google Calendar: schedule, update, delete events - Gmail: search, draft, send emails - Google Drive: manage files and folders - LinkedIn & Twitter: post updates, send DMs - Utility tools: fetch date/time, search URLs - Discord Input: Accepts prompts via n8ndiscordtriggerbot repo link --- 🛠 Setup Instructions 1. Timezone Configuration: - Go to Settings > Default Timezone in n8n. - Set to your local timezone (e.g., Asia/Jakarta). - Ensure all Date & Time nodes explicitly use the same zone to avoid UTC-related bugs. 2. Tool Authentication: - Replace all OAuth credentials for: - Gmail - Google Drive - Google Calendar - Twitter - LinkedIn - Use your own accounts when copying this workflow. 3. Platform Adaptability: - While designed for Discord, you can replace the Discord trigger with any other chat or webhook service. - Example: Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp Webhook, n8n Form Trigger, etc. --- 📦 Strengths - Great for document retrieval, email summarization, calendar scheduling, and social posting. - Reduces the need for tab-switching across multiple platforms. - Tested with a comprehensive checklist across categories like: - Calendar - Gmail - Google Drive - Twitter - LinkedIn - Utility tools - Cross-tool actions (Refer to discordGPT prompt checklist for prompt coverage.) --- ⚠️ Limitations - ❌ Binary Uploads: - AI agents & MCP server currently struggle with binary payloads. - Uploading files to Gmail, Google Drive, or LinkedIn may fail due to format serialization issues. - Binary operations (upload/post) are under development and will be fixed in future iterations. - ❌ Date Bugs: - If timezone settings are incorrect, event times may default to UTC, leading to misaligned calendar events. --- 🔬 Testing Use the provided prompt checklist for full coverage of: - ✅ Core feature flows - ✅ Edge cases (e.g., invalid dates, nonexistent users) - ✅ Cross-tool chains (e.g., Google Drive → Gmail → LinkedIn) --- ✅ MCP Assistant Test Prompt Checklist 📅 Google Calendar - [X] "Schedule a meeting with Alice tomorrow at 10am. and send an invite to alice@wonderland.com" - [X] "Create an event called 'Project Sync' on Friday at 3pm with Bob and Charlie." - [X] "Update the time of my call with James to next Monday at 2pm." - [X] "Delete my meeting with Marketing next Wednesday." - [x] "What is my schedule tommorow ?
