digital-ocean-automation

Lets your agent automate tasks on DigitalOcean. It makes managing cloud servers and services easier.

What it does

This tool helps automate tasks on DigitalOcean's cloud. It uses a system called Rube MCP to find and run the actions you need.

When to use it

  • ✓When you want to create a new server on DigitalOcean.
  • ✓When you need to manage your existing servers.
  • ✓When you want to automate the creation or modification of cloud resources.

Example of what to ask your AI

“Create a DigitalOcean server with the following specifications...”

How it works

First, the tool checks which commands are available and if your DigitalOcean account is connected. Then, it executes the exact command you requested, using the information it found.

Installation

Easiest way: copy the skill link and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor asking it to follow the instructions.

In the terminal (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor), in your project folder:

npx skills add ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills --skill digital-ocean-automation

Or download just the file:

DigitalOcean Automation via Rube MCP

Automate DigitalOcean operations through Composio's DigitalOcean toolkit via Rube MCP.

Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/digital_ocean

Prerequisites

  • Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
  • Active DigitalOcean connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit digital_ocean
  • Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Setup

Get Rube MCP: Add https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.

  1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds
  2. Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit digital_ocean
  3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup
  4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Tool Discovery

Always discover available tools before executing workflows:

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "DigitalOcean operations", known_fields: ""}]
session: {generate_id: true}

This returns available tool slugs, input schemas, recommended execution plans, and known pitfalls.

Core Workflow Pattern

Step 1: Discover Available Tools

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "your specific DigitalOcean task"}]
session: {id: "existing_session_id"}

Step 2: Check Connection

RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
toolkits: ["digital_ocean"]
session_id: "your_session_id"

Step 3: Execute Tools

RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL
tools: [{
  tool_slug: "TOOL_SLUG_FROM_SEARCH",
  arguments: {/* schema-compliant args from search results */}
}]
memory: {}
session_id: "your_session_id"

Known Pitfalls

  • Always search first: Tool schemas change. Never hardcode tool slugs or arguments without calling RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
  • Check connection: Verify RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS shows ACTIVE status before executing tools
  • Schema compliance: Use exact field names and types from the search results
  • Memory parameter: Always include memory in RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL calls, even if empty ({})
  • Session reuse: Reuse session IDs within a workflow. Generate new ones for new workflows
  • Pagination: Check responses for pagination tokens and continue fetching until complete

Quick Reference

Operation Approach
Find tools RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS with DigitalOcean-specific use case
Connect RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit digital_ocean
Execute RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL with discovered tool slugs
Bulk ops RUBE_REMOTE_WORKBENCH with run_composio_tool()
Full schema RUBE_GET_TOOL_SCHEMAS for tools with schemaRef
