revolt-automation
by ComposioHQrevolt-automation helps Claude automate Revolt tasks through Composio Rube MCP, with live tool discovery, connection checks, and schema-first Workflow Automation guidance.
Score: 68/100. This is an acceptable but limited listing candidate: directory users who already use Revolt and Rube MCP get enough setup and execution guidance to decide whether to install it, but they should expect a thin wrapper around dynamic tool discovery rather than a rich, self-contained automation playbook.
- Valid skill metadata clearly names the trigger domain: automating Revolt tasks through Rube MCP and Composio's Revolt toolkit.
- Prerequisites and setup steps are explicit, including adding the Rube MCP endpoint, checking `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS`, and managing the Revolt connection with `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS`.
- The skill gives an operational pattern that reduces guesswork by requiring tool discovery first to retrieve current tool slugs, schemas, execution plans, and pitfalls.
- No support files, scripts, references, or README beyond SKILL.md, so adoption relies almost entirely on the embedded instructions and external Composio/Rube behavior.
- Workflow guidance is generic and tool-discovery driven; it does not provide concrete Revolt task examples or tested end-to-end automations in the provided evidence.
Overview of revolt-automation skill
What revolt-automation does
revolt-automation is a Claude skill for automating Revolt community and messaging tasks through Composio’s Rube MCP server. Instead of assuming fixed API parameters, the skill directs the agent to discover the current Revolt tool schemas with RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS, verify the Revolt connection with RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS, and then execute the appropriate Rube MCP tools.
Best fit for Workflow Automation users
This skill is most useful if you already use Revolt for communities, internal coordination, moderation, or server operations and want Claude to help perform repeatable actions through MCP. Good use cases include drafting or sending messages, looking up server/channel data, coordinating operational workflows, or building agent-assisted admin routines where the available tool schema may change over time.
Why this skill is different from a generic prompt
A generic prompt can describe a Revolt task, but it may invent tool names or outdated parameters. The revolt-automation skill’s main value is procedural: it forces live tool discovery before execution. That makes it better for MCP-based Workflow Automation where accuracy depends on the current Composio toolkit schema, active authentication, and the exact fields returned by Rube.
Important adoption requirement
The skill is thin by design and depends on external infrastructure. You need Rube MCP available in your client, RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS working, and an ACTIVE Revolt connection. If you want a standalone bot framework, hosted moderation product, or direct Revolt API wrapper, this skill is not that; it is an agent workflow layer over Composio Rube MCP.
How to Use revolt-automation skill
revolt-automation install and setup context
Install the skill from the Composio skill collection:
npx skills add ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills --skill revolt-automation
Then configure Rube MCP in your Claude-compatible client by adding the MCP server endpoint:
https://rube.app/mcp
No local scripts are included in this skill. The repository path is composio-skills/revolt-automation, and the key file to read first is SKILL.md. Because there are no bundled rules/, resources/, or helper scripts, most of the operational detail comes from the skill instructions plus live Rube tool discovery.
Required inputs before running a workflow
Before asking Claude to act, provide the goal, target Revolt context, and safety boundaries. Strong inputs include:
- The exact action: send, search, create, update, list, moderate, or retrieve.
- Target scope: server, channel, user, role, or message, using IDs if available.
- Content constraints: tone, allowed mentions, formatting, links, and whether drafts need approval.
- Execution mode: “prepare a plan only,” “ask before sending,” or “execute after confirming schema.”
- Authentication status if known: whether the Revolt toolkit connection is already ACTIVE.
A weak prompt is: “Post an announcement in Revolt.”
A stronger prompt is: “Use revolt-automation to discover the current Revolt tools, confirm the connection is ACTIVE, then draft an announcement for channel <channel_id>. Do not send until I approve. Avoid @everyone, include the release link, and summarize the tool schema you plan to use.”
Recommended revolt-automation usage workflow
Use the skill in this order:
- Ask Claude to invoke
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLSfor the specific Revolt task, not just “Revolt operations.” - Have it inspect returned tool slugs, schemas, required fields, and warnings.
- Confirm the Revolt connection with
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSfor toolkitrevolt. - If inactive, complete the returned authorization flow before continuing.
- Ask Claude to restate the planned tool call in plain English before execution.
- Execute only after required IDs, permissions, and content are confirmed.
This pattern matters because Rube may return updated schemas, renamed tools, or execution plans that are not visible from the static repository file.
Repository files to inspect first
Start with SKILL.md; it contains the actual workflow, prerequisites, setup steps, and the core discovery-first pattern. The repository evidence indicates no extra README, metadata, scripts, rules, references, or resources for this skill, so do not expect a larger framework. For toolkit-level details, consult the Composio Revolt toolkit documentation linked from the skill: https://composio.dev/toolkits/revolt.
revolt-automation skill FAQ
Is revolt-automation suitable for beginners?
Yes, if you are comfortable connecting an MCP server and following an authentication link. The skill’s workflow is simple, but beginners should use approval gates: ask Claude to discover tools, explain the schema, draft the action, and wait before sending or modifying anything in Revolt.
What can block revolt-automation from working?
The common blockers are missing Rube MCP configuration, unavailable RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS, an inactive Revolt connection, missing permissions in the target server or channel, and vague prompts that omit IDs or intended action. The skill cannot bypass Revolt permissions or complete tasks if the Composio toolkit does not expose the needed operation.
When should I not use this skill?
Do not use revolt-automation if you need a persistent always-on bot, custom event listeners, low-level Revolt API programming, or a workflow that must run without Claude and MCP. It is best for agent-initiated automation, not for replacing a production bot service or background worker.
How does this compare with direct Revolt API usage?
Direct API usage gives developers more control and is better for custom applications. The revolt-automation skill is better when you want Claude to orchestrate Revolt actions through an authenticated MCP tool layer, especially when you prefer live schema discovery over manually maintaining API calls.
How to Improve revolt-automation skill
Improve revolt-automation prompts with operational detail
The best results come from prompts that include intent, target, constraints, and approval rules. Instead of asking for “Revolt automation,” specify: “Find the correct tool for listing channels in server <server_id>, show required fields, then retrieve the channel list without posting anything.” This reduces schema guessing and prevents accidental writes.
Add guardrails for messages and moderation
For message-sending, role changes, or moderation-like actions, require a two-step flow: draft first, execute second. Include rules such as “never mention everyone,” “do not delete content without confirmation,” or “show the exact channel and message text before calling the tool.” These guardrails are especially important because the skill can trigger real actions through an ACTIVE connection.
Iterate after the first tool response
After RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS returns available tools, ask Claude to compare candidate tools and explain why one fits. If a required field is missing, stop and collect it instead of letting the agent infer. If execution fails, feed the error back into the same session and ask Claude to re-check the schema, connection status, and permissions before retrying.
Strengthen the skill for team use
Teams can improve adoption by documenting common Revolt IDs, approved announcement templates, channel naming conventions, and permission boundaries outside the skill. Because the repository only ships SKILL.md, your local runbook can add the context the skill intentionally leaves dynamic: which servers are safe to automate, which actions require human approval, and which workflows are read-only.
