I've been building chatbot with n8n for my education platform. The biggest pain was monitoring — clicking through execution logs, messages mixed together, no way to jump in when the bot said something wrong.
So I built a community node for n8n that solves this. You install it like any other community node:
Settings → Community Nodes → Install → n8n-nodes-trilox
You get 3 actions and 1 trigger:
- Record Message — logs every conversation into a proper inbox
- Check Handler — checks if a human is handling it so the bot stays quiet (no double replies)
- Escalate to Human — flags conversations that need human attention
- On Agent Message (trigger) — fires when you reply from the inbox
If anyone's building chatbots with n8n and needs help with monitoring or human takeover — happy to help
