Make Skill

A complete reference for the Make.com API and blueprint management — covering scenario CRUD, blueprint JSON structure, expression syntax, router filters, error handlers, connections, webhooks, data stores, execution history, and Make-to-n8n migration mapping. Built from real production work at D1DX.

What's Included

Topic	What it covers
API Basics	Base URL, auth, pagination, team ID requirement, MCP usage
Scenarios	List, get, activate/deactivate, create, delete
Blueprints	Get and push blueprints, full JSON structure, key module names reference
Expression Syntax	{{1.body}} references, ifempty, lower, formatDate, parseDate, toNumber, length
Router Filters	Condition structure, AND/OR logic, full operator reference
Error Handlers	Ignore, Resume, Rollback, Break, Commit handler types
Connections	List, get, test connection health
Webhooks (Hooks)	List, get, create, delete; production URL retrieval
Data Stores	List stores, read/write records
Execution History	List scenario execution logs, status values
Make-to-n8n Migration	Module mapping table, expression syntax translation table
Critical Gotchas	Blueprint-as-string encoding, zone prefix requirement, connection ID portability, pull-before-edit, activation after push

Recommended: Use with the Make.com Cloud MCP

For the best experience, pair this skill with the official Make.com cloud MCP at https://eu1.make.com/mcp/stateless (or eu2/us1/us2 for your zone). It uses Streamable HTTP transport with Bearer-header auth, runs in Make's infrastructure, and exposes 200+ modules and scenarios directly to your AI agent — no local node process to install or orphan.

Example Claude Code config (.mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "make": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://eu1.make.com/mcp/stateless",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MAKE_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note on the legacy stdio fork. D1DX previously maintained github:D1DX/make-mcp — a Node-based stdio MCP server. It is retired as of 2026-05-08 for unfixable orphan-storm failure modes on macOS Sequoia (a v1.4.2 watchdog gap reproduced under Codex). Use the cloud MCP above instead. Recovery for any consumer still running the fork: pkill -9 -f make-mcp-server.

Install

Claude Code

git clone https://github.com/D1DX/make-skill.git
cp -r make-skill ~/.claude/skills/make

Or as a git submodule:

git submodule add https://github.com/D1DX/make-skill.git path/to/skills/make

Other AI Agents

Copy SKILL.md (and supporting files) into your agent's prompt or knowledge directory. The skill is structured markdown — works with any LLM agent that reads reference files.

Sources

Distilled from managing 257 Make.com scenarios at D1DX and executing a large-scale migration to n8n. Covers API patterns, blueprint engineering, and migration mappings developed through hands-on scenario auditing, blueprint editing, and cross-platform porting.
