ngrok-automation

Lets the agent automate Ngrok. It's useful for creating secure tunnels to expose local services to the internet.

What it does

This tool helps automate Ngrok tasks, which is a service for exposing local servers to the internet. It uses a system called Rube MCP to find and execute the necessary actions.

When to use it

  • ✓When you need to create an Ngrok tunnel for a local service.
  • ✓When you want to manage active Ngrok connections.
  • ✓When you need to discover which Ngrok commands are available.

Example of what to ask your AI

“Create an Ngrok tunnel for my web server on port 8000.”

Ready-to-paste message

Use this skill to help me: https://github.com/ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills/blob/master/composio-skills/ngrok-automation/SKILL.md Read the SKILL.md file at that link and follow its instructions for my task.
How it works

First, the tool checks which Ngrok commands are available using RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS. Then, it ensures the Ngrok connection is active. Finally, it executes the desired command.

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 ngrok-automation

Or download just the file:

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills/master/composio-skills/ngrok-automation/SKILL.md -o SKILL.md

Ngrok Automation via Rube MCP

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

Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/ngrok

Prerequisites

  • Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
  • Active Ngrok connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit ngrok
  • 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 ngrok
  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: "Ngrok 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 Ngrok task"}]
session: {id: "existing_session_id"}

Step 2: Check Connection

RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
toolkits: ["ngrok"]
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 Ngrok-specific use case
Connect RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit ngrok
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

FAQ

What is Rube MCP?

It's a system that helps the AI find and use tools, like Ngrok's, without you needing to know the technical details.

Do I need Ngrok installed?

Yes, you need an active Ngrok account and must follow the connection steps indicated by the tool.

What do 'schemas' mean?

Schemas are like instruction manuals for the AI, telling it what information (fields) a command needs and how it should be provided.
