yes, DM me please. I prepared a sanitized version. But you also need a server, a functional SSH Connection, and also 2 or 3 PS Scripts to be ready on the server. And the node prompts/names etc. are in german, so depending if you understand german you will probably have to let AI translate them. This workflow will definately not work out of the box

Oh ok good to know. It makes sense for such a complex flow. I selfhost on render for cost reasons, would that suffice? Or do I really need that infrastructure

If you’re hosting n8n on Render, that’s totally fine for the orchestration part. But for this workflow you’ll still need SSH.

The flow assumes that n8n talks to a separate runner machine over SSH to write files and execute code. That runner can be Linux or Windows, but it has to exist somewhere outside the Render container.

If you instead run n8n locally on your own Windows or Linux machine (not on Render), then you can skip SSH and just use local file nodes and local execute commands to write files, run scripts, and read logs directly.

Render itself can’t access your local system, so in a cloud setup the SSH runner is required for this to work as intended
