1 to fix

Review `DISABLED_TOOL_OPERATIONS` for data-table writes, agent writes and test methods; also block the virtual expose operation to prevent enabling Available in MCP.

Fixed and improved

Explicit prepare, pinned and direct methods support workflows without `HTTP` triggers.

Limit liftedTest workflows through HTTP triggers or explicit runs using n8n's instance-level MCP server.

source='native' reads and restores n8n's own history; diff compares local or native versions. Native history requires `N8N_MCP_ACCESS_TOKEN` and Available in MCP.

Version modes use recorded core-node schemas for version comparison and migration analysis; community version history is not covered.

Multi-tenant sessions refresh rotated API keys and MCP access tokens instead of continuing with frozen credentials.

Now worksConnect an MCP client to node documentation and optional n8n management tools.

Multi-step node upgrades retain breaking changes from each recorded transition; checks no longer claim `upgradeSafe` because the requested range spans several transitions.
