AI Assistant which answers questions with a RAG MCP and a Search Engine MCP

by Thomas Janssen

Build an AI Agent which accesses two MCP Servers: a RAG MCP Server and a Search Engine API MCP Server. This workflow contains community nodes that are only compatible with the self-hosted version of n8n. Tutorial Click here to watch the full tutorial on YouTube! How it works We build an AI Agent which has access to two MCP servers: An MCP Server with a RAG database (click here for the RAG MCP Server An MCP Server which can access a Search Engine, so the AI Agent also has access to data about more current events Installation In order to use the MCP Client, you also have to use MCP Server Template. Open the MCP Client "MCP Client: RAG" node and update the SSE Endpoint to the MCP Server workflow Install the "n8n-nodes-mcp" community node via settings > community nodes ONLY FOR SELF-HOSTING: In Docker, click on your n8n container.

Open the "MCP Client" and add the following credentials: How to use it Run the Chat node and start asking questions More detailed instructions Missed a step? Find more detailed instructions here: Personal Newsfeed With Bright Data and n8n What is Retrievel Augmented Generation (RAG)? Large Language Models (LLM's) are trained on data until a specific cutoff date. Imagine a model is trained in December 2023 based data until September 2023. This means the model doesn't have any knowledge about events which happened in 2024. So if you ask the LLM who was the Formula 1 World Champion of 2024, it doesn't know the answer. The solution? Retrieval Augmented Generation. When using Retrieval Augmented Generation, a user's question is being sent to a semantic database. The LLM will use the information retrieved from the semantic database to answer the user's question. What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)? MCP is a communication protocol which is used by AI agents to call tools hosted on external servers. When an MCP client communicates with an MCP server, the server will provide an overview of all its tools, prompts and resources. The MCP server can then choose which tools to execute (based on the user's request) and execute the tools. An MCP client can communicate with multiple MCP servers, which can all host multiple tools.

by Yang

💬Communication & Collaboration

Who is this for? This workflow is perfect for customer support teams, sales departments, or solopreneurs who receive frequent email enquiries and want to automate the initial response process using AI. If you spend too much time answering similar questions, this system helps respond faster and more intelligently—without writing a single line of code. What problem is this workflow solving? Manually responding to repeated customer enquiries slows productivity and increases delay. This workflow classifies if an incoming email is a real enquiry, analyzes the content with a LangChain-powered agent, fetches helpful context using Dumpling AI, and sends a personalized reply using Gmail—all within minutes. What this workflow does Listens for new incoming Gmail messages using the Gmail Trigger node. Classifies whether the email is an enquiry using a GPT-4o classification prompt. Uses a Filter node to continue only if the email was classified as an enquiry. Passes the email content to a LangChain Agent, enhanced with memory, AI tools, and Dumpling AI to search for relevant information. The agent constructs a smart, relevant response, then sends it to the original sender via Gmail. Setup Connect Gmail Use the Gmail Trigger node to connect to the Gmail account that receives enquiries. Make sure Gmail OAuth2 credentials are authenticated. Configure Dumpling AI Agent Sign up at Dumpling AI. Create an agent trained to search your help docs, site content, or FAQs. Copy your Dumpling agent ID and API key. Paste it in the Dumpling AI Agent – Search for Relevant Info HTTP Request node. Set Up LangChain Agent No extra setup needed beyond connecting OpenAI credentials. GPT-4o is used for classification and reply generation. Enable Gmail Reply Node The final Send Email Response via Gmail node will send the AI-generated reply back to the same thread. How to customize this workflow to your needs Change the classification prompt to include other email types like “support”, “complaint”, or “sales”. Add additional logic if you want to CC someone or forward certain types of enquiries. Add a Notion or Google Sheets node to log the conversation for analytics. Replace Gmail with Outlook or another email provider by switching the nodes. Improve context by adding more AI tools like database queries or preloaded FAQs.
