# Send Box Automation to your agent Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually. ## Fast path - Download the package from Yavira. - Extract it into a folder your agent can access. - Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder. ## Suggested prompts ### New install ```text I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete. ``` ### Upgrade existing ```text I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run. ``` ## Machine-readable fields ```json { "schemaVersion": "1.0", "item": { "slug": "box-automation", "name": "Box Automation", "source": "tencent", "type": "skill", "category": "开发工具", "sourceUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/sohamganatra/box-automation", "canonicalUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/sohamganatra/box-automation", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw" }, "install": { "downloadUrl": "/downloads/box-automation", "sourceDownloadUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=box-automation", "sourcePlatform": "tencent", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw", "packageFormat": "ZIP package", "primaryDoc": "SKILL.md", "includedAssets": [ "SKILL.md" ], "downloadMode": "redirect", "sourceHealth": { "source": "tencent", "slug": "box-automation", "status": "healthy", "reason": "direct_download_ok", "recommendedAction": "download", "checkedAt": "2026-04-30T23:50:12.657Z", "expiresAt": "2026-05-07T23:50:12.657Z", "httpStatus": 200, "finalUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=box-automation", "contentType": "application/zip", "probeMethod": "head", "details": { "probeUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=box-automation", "contentDisposition": "attachment; filename=\"box-automation-0.1.0.zip\"", "redirectLocation": null, "bodySnippet": null, "slug": "box-automation" }, "scope": "item", "summary": "Item download looks usable.", "detail": "Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this item.", "primaryActionLabel": "Download for OpenClaw", "primaryActionHref": "/downloads/box-automation" }, "validation": { "installChecklist": [ "Use the Yavira download entry.", "Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.", "Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets." ], "postInstallChecks": [ "Confirm the extracted package includes the expected docs or setup files.", "Validate the skill or prompts are available in your target agent workspace.", "Capture any manual follow-up steps the agent could not complete." ] } }, "links": { "detailUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/box-automation", "downloadUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/box-automation", "agentUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/box-automation/agent", "manifestUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/box-automation/agent.json", "briefUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/box-automation/agent.md" } } ``` ## Documentation ### Box Automation via Rube MCP Automate Box operations including file upload/download, content search, folder management, collaboration, metadata queries, and sign requests through Composio's Box toolkit. ### Prerequisites Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available) Active Box connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit box 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. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit box If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Box OAuth Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows ### 1. Upload and Download Files When to use: User wants to upload files to Box or download files from it Tool sequence: BOX_SEARCH_FOR_CONTENT - Find the target folder if path is unknown [Prerequisite] BOX_GET_FOLDER_INFORMATION - Verify folder exists and get folder_id [Prerequisite] BOX_LIST_ITEMS_IN_FOLDER - Browse folder contents and discover file IDs [Optional] BOX_UPLOAD_FILE - Upload a file to a specific folder [Required for upload] BOX_DOWNLOAD_FILE - Download a file by file_id [Required for download] BOX_CREATE_ZIP_DOWNLOAD - Bundle multiple files/folders into a zip [Optional] Key parameters: parent_id: Folder ID for upload destination (use "0" for root folder) file: FileUploadable object with s3key, mimetype, and name for uploads file_id: Unique file identifier for downloads version: Optional file version ID for downloading specific versions fields: Comma-separated list of attributes to return Pitfalls: Uploading to a folder with existing filenames can trigger conflict behavior; decide overwrite vs rename semantics Files over 50MB should use chunk upload APIs (not available via standard tools) The attributes part of upload must come before the file part or you get HTTP 400 with metadata_after_file_contents File IDs and folder IDs are numeric strings extractable from Box web app URLs (e.g., https://*.app.box.com/files/123 gives file_id "123") ### 2. Search and Browse Content When to use: User wants to find files, folders, or web links by name, content, or metadata Tool sequence: BOX_SEARCH_FOR_CONTENT - Full-text search across files, folders, and web links [Required] BOX_LIST_ITEMS_IN_FOLDER - Browse contents of a specific folder [Optional] BOX_GET_FILE_INFORMATION - Get detailed metadata for a specific file [Optional] BOX_GET_FOLDER_INFORMATION - Get detailed metadata for a specific folder [Optional] BOX_QUERY_FILES_FOLDERS_BY_METADATA - Search by metadata template values [Optional] BOX_LIST_RECENTLY_ACCESSED_ITEMS - List recently accessed items [Optional] Key parameters: query: Search string supporting operators ("" exact match, AND, OR, NOT - uppercase only) type: Filter by "file", "folder", or "web_link" ancestor_folder_ids: Limit search to specific folders (comma-separated IDs) file_extensions: Filter by file type (comma-separated, no dots) content_types: Search in "name", "description", "file_content", "comments", "tags" created_at_range / updated_at_range: Date filters as comma-separated RFC3339 timestamps limit: Results per page (default 30) offset: Pagination offset (max 10000) folder_id: For LIST_ITEMS_IN_FOLDER (use "0" for root) Pitfalls: Queries with offset > 10000 are rejected with HTTP 400 BOX_SEARCH_FOR_CONTENT requires either query or mdfilters parameter Misconfigured filters can silently omit expected items; validate with small test queries first Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) must be uppercase BOX_LIST_ITEMS_IN_FOLDER requires pagination via marker or offset/usemarker; partial listings are common Standard folders sort items by type first (folders before files before web links) ### 3. Manage Folders When to use: User wants to create, update, move, copy, or delete folders Tool sequence: BOX_GET_FOLDER_INFORMATION - Verify folder exists and check permissions [Prerequisite] BOX_CREATE_FOLDER - Create a new folder [Required for create] BOX_UPDATE_FOLDER - Rename, move, or update folder settings [Required for update] BOX_COPY_FOLDER - Copy a folder to a new location [Optional] BOX_DELETE_FOLDER - Move folder to trash [Required for delete] BOX_PERMANENTLY_REMOVE_FOLDER - Permanently delete a trashed folder [Optional] Key parameters: name: Folder name (no /, \\, trailing spaces, or ./..) parent__id: Parent folder ID (use "0" for root) folder_id: Target folder ID for operations parent.id: Destination folder ID for moves via BOX_UPDATE_FOLDER recursive: Set true to delete non-empty folders shared_link: Object with access, password, permissions for creating shared links on folders description, tags: Optional metadata fields Pitfalls: BOX_DELETE_FOLDER moves to trash by default; use BOX_PERMANENTLY_REMOVE_FOLDER for permanent deletion Non-empty folders require recursive: true for deletion Root folder (ID "0") cannot be copied or deleted Folder names cannot contain /, \\, non-printable ASCII, or trailing spaces Moving folders requires setting parent.id via BOX_UPDATE_FOLDER ### 4.
