Research direction
The request is vague. Start by reviewing n8n's documentation on creating community nodes (https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/creating nodes/). Then explore Docling's Python API to understand the functions that could be exposed as nodes. Look for existing n8n nodes for similar libraries to understand common patterns. No linked PRs or comments provide further guidance.
