dailybot-automation
by ComposioHQdailybot-automation helps Claude run Dailybot operations through Composio Rube MCP by discovering current tool schemas, checking the Dailybot connection, and executing approved workflows safely.
This skill scores 68/100, which means it is acceptable for directory listing but should be presented as a lightweight MCP workflow guide rather than a complete automation package. Directory users get enough information to know when to install it—Dailybot automation through Rube MCP—and how an agent should start safely, but they should expect to rely on live tool discovery and external Dailybot/Composio schemas for task-specific execution details.
- Clear trigger and scope: the skill is explicitly for automating Dailybot tasks through Composio's Dailybot toolkit via Rube MCP.
- Prerequisites and setup are stated, including adding https://rube.app/mcp, verifying RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS, and activating a Dailybot connection with RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS.
- The skill gives agents an important operational rule: always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to obtain current tool schemas before executing workflows.
- No support files, scripts, references, or README are included beyond SKILL.md, so adoption depends on the single skill document and external toolkit docs.
- The workflow guidance is mostly schema-discovery oriented rather than concrete Dailybot automations, leaving users to infer specific task flows after RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS returns results.
Overview of dailybot-automation skill
What dailybot-automation does
dailybot-automation is a Claude skill for running Dailybot operations through Composio’s Rube MCP server. Its main value is not a fixed automation script; it teaches the agent to discover the current Dailybot tool schema with RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS, verify the Dailybot connection, then execute the right Rube tool for the requested workflow.
Best fit for Workflow Automation users
This dailybot-automation skill is best for teams that already use Dailybot and want an AI agent to help with operational actions such as finding available Dailybot tools, preparing a valid execution plan, and calling Composio-managed Dailybot actions through MCP. It is especially useful when tool schemas may change and you do not want prompts hardcoded to stale parameters.
What makes it different from a generic prompt
A generic prompt may ask Claude to “automate Dailybot,” but it will not reliably know which MCP tools are available, whether the Dailybot connection is active, or what the current input schema requires. dailybot-automation explicitly prioritizes tool discovery first, connection validation second, and execution only after the agent has the current schema.
Adoption requirements to check first
Before installing, confirm that your client supports MCP and can connect to https://rube.app/mcp. The skill requires Rube MCP and an active Dailybot connection managed through RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit dailybot. If your environment cannot expose MCP tools to Claude, this skill will not be useful yet.
How to Use dailybot-automation skill
dailybot-automation install and setup path
Install the skill from the repository path:
npx skills add ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills --skill dailybot-automation
Then add Rube as an MCP server in your Claude-compatible client:
https://rube.app/mcp
After MCP is available, verify that RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds. Next, call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS for toolkit dailybot. If the connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned authorization link and re-check status before asking the agent to perform Dailybot work.
Inputs the skill needs from you
For strong dailybot-automation usage, provide the specific Dailybot job, the intended target, and any constraints that affect execution. A weak request is:
“Update Dailybot.”
A stronger request is:
“Use dailybot-automation to find the current Dailybot tools, verify the Dailybot connection, then identify the correct tool to create or update a Dailybot check-in reminder for the engineering team. Do not execute until you show me the tool name, required fields, and planned payload.”
This works better because the skill can search for the relevant schema, avoid guessing fields, and pause before executing changes.
Recommended workflow
Use this sequence for most tasks:
- Ask the agent to invoke
dailybot-automation. - Tell it the exact Dailybot outcome you want.
- Require
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLSbefore any action. - Ask it to confirm the Dailybot connection through
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS. - Review the discovered tool slug, schema, and proposed payload.
- Approve execution only when the payload matches your intent.
This workflow is slower than a one-line instruction, but it prevents the most common failure: executing against an outdated or assumed Dailybot schema.
Repository files to read first
The repository contains a compact skill definition rather than a large framework. Start with composio-skills/dailybot-automation/SKILL.md. Focus on the Prerequisites, Setup, Tool Discovery, and Core Workflow Pattern sections. There are no separate scripts, rules, resources, or README files in the skill folder, so the operational guidance is concentrated in SKILL.md.
dailybot-automation skill FAQ
Is dailybot-automation beginner friendly?
Yes, if you already know how to configure MCP in your client. The skill’s Dailybot logic is straightforward, but the setup depends on Rube MCP being visible to Claude. Beginners should first confirm that RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS is available before troubleshooting Dailybot-specific behavior.
When should I not use this skill?
Do not use dailybot-automation if you only need a written Dailybot process, a policy draft, or a checklist with no tool execution. It is also a poor fit if your organization cannot authorize a Dailybot connection through Composio/Rube or if you need direct API code instead of MCP-mediated actions.
Does it replace Dailybot admin knowledge?
No. The skill helps the agent discover and call available Dailybot tools, but you still need to know what business outcome is correct: which team, check-in, workflow, user, or automation should be affected. The agent can validate schemas; it cannot infer your internal operating rules unless you provide them.
Why does the skill insist on searching tools first?
Composio toolkits can expose different tool slugs and schemas over time. Searching first gives the agent current names, required fields, execution plans, and pitfalls. This is the key guardrail in the dailybot-automation guide and the main reason to use the skill instead of a static prompt.
How to Improve dailybot-automation skill
Make prompts execution-safe
For better results with dailybot-automation, separate planning from execution. Ask the agent to show the discovered tool, required inputs, missing information, and proposed payload before it runs anything. This is especially important for Dailybot actions that affect teams, reminders, workflows, or user-visible settings.
Provide stronger Dailybot context
Include names, IDs if known, team scope, timing rules, and whether the task is read-only or write-enabled. For example:
“Find the current Dailybot tool for listing check-ins. Use read-only discovery first. If a write action is needed, stop and ask for approval.”
This reduces ambiguity and helps the agent choose between search, list, create, update, and management-style tools.
Watch for common failure modes
The main failure modes are skipping RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS, assuming a stale schema, trying to execute before the Dailybot connection is ACTIVE, or using vague nouns like “the bot” or “the team.” If output looks uncertain, ask the agent to repeat tool discovery with a narrower use case and explain which schema fields are mandatory.
Iterate after the first output
After the first plan, improve the request by adding missing field values, removing unnecessary actions, and narrowing the scope. A good iteration prompt is:
“Use the same dailybot-automation session, but limit this to read-only inspection. Re-run tool discovery for Dailybot check-in configuration, list the available tools, and recommend the safest next action without executing it.”
