Q: n8n and manus.im integration
Hello,
is there a manus.im integration, and can it be used in n8n workflows?
Thank you

May 31, 2026A: Thanks for the question—the short answer is yes, both work today, but neither is a first-class integration yet.
Rafter is built as a security primitive: every command emits structured JSON, returns documented exit codes, ships an MCP server, and has a REST API behind your RAFTER_API_KEY. Consequently, anything that can run a shell command, call an HTTP endpoint, or speak MCP can already wire Rafter in.
Here are the two paths for your setup (feel free to drop this response into your agents with context about your personal stack for step-by-step walkthrough):
n8n
Use an Execute Command node calling rafter secrets <path> --json (offline secret scan) or rafter run (cloud SAST/SCA), or an HTTP Request node hitting POST https://rafter.so/api/static/scan. Pipe either into n8n's JSON node, and you have findings to gate, route, or post into Slack, Linear, or elsewhere.
manus.im
While rafter mcp serve is available, we prioritize CLI execution over MCP for security reasons; you can run Rafter directly via shell commands for a more controlled, secure integration. If you prefer the MCP route for interactive agentic workflows, you can spin it up locally on-demand, but for standard automation, we recommend treating Rafter as a native CLI tool. Inside an n8n workflow, manus can act as a companion node alongside a Rafter scan node—Rafter doesn't care who triggers the scan.

Current Status
What we don't ship yet is auto-install (rafter agent init --with-manus), a published n8n community node (n8n-nodes-rafter), or a copy-paste recipe for either.
But we would like to!
What is the specific workflow you are trying to build? If there is a concrete n8n flow or manus setup you want, that is the most useful signal for us to prioritize a recipe and auto-install—we want to build them around a real use case rather than guessing.
Happy to move over to email ([email protected]) or trade more messages here!
What specific security-critical tasks are you hoping to automate between Rafter and Manus?
Thank you very much for the information, Rome.
At the moment there is no specific workflow, just an idea about a possible usecase in my company. I am at the very beginning with all the AI stuff, just opened an n8n account at hostinger, and now reading about MCP and think about vibe coding (have an manus pro account since a few monthes. If it proceeds I may come back to talk with you about it.
