Govern n8n workflows with Fronterio
Every n8n workflow that touches AI is now a governance surface under the EU AI Act. Fronterio's MCP server plugs straight into n8n's built-in MCP Client node — no custom code, no branded node required.

How it works
Generate an API key
Create a Fronterio API key scoped to the tools your workflow needs — read-only telemetry, read + write governance, or full access.
Add the MCP Client node
Drop n8n's built-in MCP Client node onto your canvas. Point it at https://fronterio.com/api/mcp/sse with a Bearer token.
Call governance tools
Before any AI action, call validate_action. After a deploy, call report_deployment_status. On failure, call report_incident.


Ready-to-import workflow templates
Three production-ready n8n workflows cover the most common governance gaps. Open n8n, import the JSON, wire credentials, activate.
Stripe charge guardrail
When a Stripe charge fails, call Fronterio validate_action before an AI agent auto-retries. Routes to human approval if guardrails block. Covers EU AI Act Article 14 human oversight.

A Slack slash command becomes a structured incident in Fronterio. Article 73 serious-incident deadline clock starts automatically — 2 days for death or serious harm, 15 days otherwise.
Download slack-incident-capture.jsonCI deploy compliance gate
Before every agent deploy, run Fronterio's 7-check pre-deploy compliance gate. Pass the deploy is blessed; fail, the team is alerted. Governance becomes a CI stage.

Runtime guardrails
The n8n workflow checks Fronterio before every sensitive action, not after. Block violations before they ship, not after the inspector finds them in the audit log.
Article 73 deadline clock
Slack /incident feeds directly into Fronterio. Serious incidents auto-route to the correct competent authority and count the 2-day or 15-day deadline with t-13d, t-7d, t-48h warnings.
Deploy gate, not a review
Compliance becomes a CI stage. Every deploy passes 7 checks before it lands. No quarterly audit catch-up, no screenshot evidence, no spreadsheet drift.
Next steps
Get the workflows running in under 10 minutes:
- 1Log into Fronterio, go to Settings → Integrations → API Keys, create a key with read:governance + write:telemetry scope.
- 2Open your n8n instance, Workflows → Import from file, drop in stripe-charge-guardrail.json.
- 3Fill in your Fronterio credential and the FRONTERIO_BILLING_AGENT_ID environment variable.
- 4Execute once with a test charge event to verify, then activate.
