Deploy a production self-hosted n8n end-to-end to a fresh Linux VM over SSH, using Docker Compose behind a Caddy reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS. Use whenever the user wants to self-host, install, set up, provision, or deploy n8n on their own server/VPS/box (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS EC2, bare metal, etc.) — in either single/regular mode or queue mode with workers — or to update, back up, restore, or harden such an instance. This is for SELF-HOSTED n8n (Docker), not n8n Cloud and not building workflows. The skill makes the agent ask single-vs-queue first, collect the domain/SSH/timezone inputs, generate fresh secrets on the box, and bring the stack up with TLS. Trigger on "deploy n8n", "self-host n8n", "install n8n on my server", "n8n docker compose", "n8n queue mode / workers / scaling", "n8n reverse proxy / SSL", or "back up / update my n8n".

Quick start
Copy the install prompt. Use the green button above this README.
Send it to your agent. Paste it into your coding agent’s chat and send.
Review the setup. Your agent checks the skill’s instructions, requirements, and installation scope.
