n8n n8n@2.31.6 released on 24-07-2026

n8n n8n@2.31.6 is out now. It fixes a runaway retry condition in Instance AI follow-up runs that could repeatedly re-queue failed runs and risk resource exhaustion.
See the GitHub compare for 2.31.5…2.31.6 and the official release page for packaging and full details.
What’s in this release
- Stop Instance AI follow-up runs from looping when they keep failing before the agent starts (bug fix tracked as issue #34773).
- Fix implemented in commit 031227a50e15dd2885853ecfec0719e31c571f49.
- Release includes the compare view for 2.31.5…2.31.6 and stage-review and cubic auto-review badges used during QA.
Upgrade notes
- No breaking changes or migrations reported; recommended for anyone using n8n’s Instance AI or automated follow-up features — upgrade when convenient and monitor AI-related run history and logs after updating.
