ARCHIVED - Broken Implementation

⚠️ This implementation has been archived due to template parsing issues and architectural problems.

Issues with Current Implementation

• Template parsing errors causing "Single '}' in template" crashes
• Inconsistent webhook URL generation
• Multiple conflicting node implementations
• Overcomplicated architecture with 3 different nodes
• Missing core functionality compared to official Chat Trigger

Status

• npm package: Deprecated on npmjs.com
• Repository: Made private
• Branch: Archived to archive/broken-implementation

Future Plans

Starting fresh with a new implementation that:

• Perfectly replicates the official n8n Chat Trigger first
• Adds enhancements incrementally with proper testing
• Follows n8n patterns exactly to avoid template parsing issues
• Provides single, reliable node instead of multiple confusing options

See FEATURES_ROADMAP.md for planned features in the new implementation.

For Users

If you installed this package, please:

• Remove it from your n8n installation
• Use the official n8n Chat Trigger node instead
• Watch for announcement of the new enhanced implementation

Original Description (Archived)

This was an attempt to create a sophisticated chat UI node for n8n workflows with rich text rendering, file handling, and advanced conversation features. Unfortunately, it suffered from fundamental architectural issues that made it unreliable.

New implementation coming soon with proper foundation! 🚀
