The central orchestration layer for the ShaneBrain ecosystem.
Running on pulsar00100 — the fastest node in the 4-node Ollama cluster.
n8n connects every service in the ShaneBrain network: the 42-tool MCP server, Weaviate vector DB, 4-node Ollama cluster, Discord bots, Angel Cloud, Mega Dashboard, HaloFinance, SRM dispatch operations, Facebook automation, voice pipeline, and everything else.
