# Send Dropbox Manager 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.

## Documentation

### Dropbox Manager Skill

Manage Dropbox files via MCP server and CLI. Swift-native implementation using SwiftyDropbox SDK with OAuth 2.0 PKCE and secure Keychain token storage.

### Prerequisites

# Clone and build Dropbook
git clone https://github.com/RyanLisse/Dropbook.git
cd Dropbook
make build

### Authentication

Option 1: OAuth Login with Keychain (Recommended)

Use the interactive OAuth flow with secure Keychain storage:

export DROPBOX_APP_KEY="your_dropbox_app_key"
export DROPBOX_APP_SECRET="your_dropbox_app_secret"
make login
# or: swift run dropbook login

This will:

Generate PKCE code verifier and challenge (SHA256, RFC 7636)
Open an authorization URL with state parameter (CSRF protection)
Prompt you to paste the authorization code
Exchange code for access and refresh tokens
Save tokens to macOS Keychain (hardware-backed encryption)
Fall back to ~/.dropbook/auth.json if Keychain unavailable
Enable automatic token refreshing

Security Features (RFC 9700 compliant):

PKCE with S256 challenge method
State parameter for CSRF protection
Keychain storage with kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlocked
CryptoKit for cryptographic operations

Option 2: Environment Variables (Legacy)

export DROPBOX_APP_KEY="your_dropbox_app_key"
export DROPBOX_APP_SECRET="your_dropbox_app_secret"
export DROPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN="your_dropbox_access_token"

Note: Manual tokens don't support automatic refreshing. Use OAuth login for production use.

### Logout

Clear stored tokens from both Keychain and file storage:

make logout
# or: swift run dropbook logout

### MCP Server (Recommended)

Start the MCP server:

make mcp
# or: ./.build/debug/dropbook mcp

### Claude Code (Project-level)

The project includes a .mcp.json file that configures the MCP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropbox": {
      "command": "/path/to/Dropbook/.build/debug/dropbook",
      "args": ["mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DROPBOX_APP_KEY": "${DROPBOX_APP_KEY}",
        "DROPBOX_APP_SECRET": "${DROPBOX_APP_SECRET}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Enable project MCP servers in Claude Code settings.json:

{
  "enableAllProjectMcpServers": true
}

### Claude Desktop

### Bulk Operations with rclone

For large-scale operations like backups, syncing, or bulk transfers, use rclone - a powerful cloud sync tool with native Dropbox support.

### Install rclone

brew install rclone

### Configure rclone for Dropbox

# Interactive setup (opens browser for OAuth)
rclone authorize dropbox

# Save the token output to config
mkdir -p ~/.config/rclone
cat > ~/.config/rclone/rclone.conf << 'EOF'
[dropbox]
type = dropbox
token = {"access_token":"...paste token here..."}
EOF

### Backup to Network Drive / Time Capsule

# Full backup with progress
rclone copy dropbox: /Volumes/TimeCapsule/Dropbox-Backup \\
    --progress \\
    --transfers 4 \\
    --checkers 8 \\
    --retries 10 \\
    --log-file /tmp/dropbox-backup.log

# Sync (mirror - deletes files not in source)
rclone sync dropbox: /Volumes/Backup/Dropbox --progress

# Check what would be copied (dry run)
rclone copy dropbox: /Volumes/Backup --dry-run

### Common rclone Commands

# List remote contents
rclone lsd dropbox:              # List directories
rclone ls dropbox:               # List all files
rclone size dropbox:             # Calculate total size

# Copy operations
rclone copy dropbox:folder /local/path    # Download folder
rclone copy /local/path dropbox:folder    # Upload folder

# Sync (bidirectional)
rclone bisync dropbox: /local/path --resync

# Mount as filesystem (macOS - requires macFUSE)
rclone mount dropbox: /mnt/dropbox --vfs-cache-mode full

### rclone Flags for Reliability

FlagDescription--progressShow real-time transfer progress--transfers 4Number of parallel transfers--checkers 8Number of parallel checkers--retries 10Retry failed operations--low-level-retries 20Retry low-level errors--log-file pathWrite logs to file--dry-runShow what would be done--checksumVerify with checksums

### Rate Limiting

Dropbox has strict API rate limits. If you see too_many_requests errors:

# Use bandwidth limiting
rclone copy dropbox: /backup --bwlimit 1M

# Or add delays between operations
rclone copy dropbox: /backup --tpslimit 2

rclone handles rate limits automatically with exponential backoff.

### Best Practices

Use OAuth login - Secure Keychain storage with automatic token refresh
Use MCP for agents - More reliable for programmatic access
Use rclone for bulk ops - Better for backups and large transfers
Validate paths first - Use list_directory before operations
Handle errors gracefully - Check responses for error fields
Respect rate limits - Add delays between bulk operations
Use absolute paths - Always provide full paths for file operations

### Security

Keychain Storage: Tokens stored with hardware-backed encryption
PKCE: Proof Key for Code Exchange prevents authorization code interception
State Parameter: CSRF protection for OAuth flow
Token Refresh: Automatic refresh before expiration
CryptoKit: Modern Swift cryptographic library

### Dependencies

SwiftyDropbox (v10.2.4+): Official Dropbox Swift SDK
MCP (swift-sdk): Model Context Protocol SDK
CryptoKit: Apple's cryptographic framework
rclone (optional): For bulk operations and backups (brew install rclone)
