LLM Plugin for Node-RED
LLM Plugin is a Node-RED sidebar extension for chatting with LLMs, generating/modifying flows, and importing results into the active tab.

Install
npm install @background404/node-red-contrib-llm-pluginRestart Node-RED after install.
Quick Start
- Open the LLM Plugin sidebar.
- Configure provider in Settings:
- Ollama: set URL (default
http://localhost:11434) - OpenAI: set API key
- Enter model and prompt.
- Enable Send current flow to include active-tab context.
- Use Agent mode for auto-apply, or Ask mode for manual import.
- Apply strategy is decided by the model (
applyMode) and enforced by the importer (safe fallback:edit-only).
Recommended Usage
For custom/community nodes, keep a small sample flow in the active tab and enable Send current flow. The model then follows real node/property patterns from that sample instead of relying on fixed per-node prompt rules.
Flow Import
- Supports Vibe Schema and raw Node-RED JSON.
- Accepts mixed response text + JSON (with or without code fences).
- Preserves robust parsing when function code contains comment tokens in JSON strings.
- Agent mode supports connection updates, LLM-driven deletions, and checkpoint-based restore.
- Apply mode is model-driven via top-level
applyMode(edit-only,merge,overwrite,delete-only).
