Description and use

<h1> I Tested 7 n8n Agent Setups So You Don't Have To. Here's What Actually Survived </h1> <p>n8n is where "AI agent" marketing goes to die.</p> <p>Every week there's another post. Beautiful canvas screenshot, nine nodes, "agentic workflows that run your business while you sleep." The comments fill up with the same question — <em>does it actually work?</em> — and nobody answers.</p> <p>So I did the annoying thing. Built seven n8n agent setups, ran each through a structured validation pass, documented what it did, kept the ones that survived. No revenue screenshots. No "make $X/month" nonsense.
