Phase 7 Plan 2: Migrate Workflow to Proxy Summary

All n8n workflow curl commands migrated from direct Docker socket to TCP proxy, docker.sock mount removed

Performance

• Duration: 25 min
• Started: 2026-02-03T14:10:00Z
• Completed: 2026-02-03T14:35:00Z
• Tasks: 4 (2 auto, 2 checkpoints)
• Files modified: 1 (n8n-workflow.json)

Accomplishments

• 16 curl commands migrated from --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock to http://docker-socket-proxy:2375
• 5-second timeout added to all Docker API calls (except image pull which keeps 600s)
• Workflow pushed to n8n via API
• All 6 bot commands verified working through proxy (status, start, stop, restart, update, logs)
• docker.sock volume mount removed from n8n container
• Credential references fixed (name: "Telegram account", id: "I0xTTiASl7C1NZhJ")

Task Commits

#	Task	Commit	Files
1	Update Workflow Curl Commands	12bdd98	n8n-workflow.json
2	Push Updated Workflow to n8n	7896856	(API operation)
3	Verify All Bot Commands Work	-	(user verification)
4	Remove docker.sock Volume Mount	-	(user action in Unraid)
fix	Correct credential name/ID	5471fee	n8n-workflow.json

Files Created/Modified

• n8n-workflow.json: All Docker socket references replaced with proxy endpoint

Decisions Made

Timeout strategy: 5-second timeout for all API calls except image pull (600s for large images).

Credential correction: Fixed credential name from "Telegram API" to "Telegram account" and updated ID to actual n8n credential ID.

Deviations from Plan

Credential mismatch discovered: Workflow had placeholder credential name/ID that didn't match n8n instance. Fixed by updating to actual credential name and ID.

Issues Encountered

Telegram webhook not triggering: After API workflow update, Telegram webhook doesn't fire when workflow is published. Bot only responds via manual execute. Deferred to Phase 10 as WEB-01 requirement.

Next Phase Readiness

Ready for Phase 8 (Inline Keyboard Infrastructure):

• All Docker API calls routed through filtered proxy
• n8n no longer has direct socket access
• Security foundation in place for new feature development
