Box Automation via Rube MCP workflow skill. Use this skill when the user needs Automate Box operations including file upload/download, content search, folder management, collaboration, metadata queries, and sign requests through Composio's Box toolkit and the operator should preserve the upstream workflow, copied support files, and provenance before merging or handing off.
This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/box-automation from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.
Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.
This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.
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.
Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Prerequisites, Common Patterns, Known Pitfalls, Limitations.
When to Use This Skill
Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.
This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Automate Box operations including file upload/download, content search, folder management, collaboration, metadata queries, and sign requests through Composio's Box toolkit.
Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Workflow
This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

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]
Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)

Examples
Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly
Use @box-automation-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.
Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.
Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review
Review @box-automation-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.
Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.
Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution
Use @box-automation-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.
Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.
Example 4: Build a reviewer packet
Review @box-automation-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.
Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.
Best Practices
Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.
Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.
Troubleshooting
Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically
Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/box-automation, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.
Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review
Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.
Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization
Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better.
Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported: Common Patterns
ID Resolution
Box uses numeric string IDs for all entities:
Root folder: Always ID "0"
File ID from URL: https://*.app.box.com/files/123 gives file_id "123"
Folder ID from URL: https://*.app.box.com/folder/123 gives folder_id "123"
Search to ID: Use BOX_SEARCH_FOR_CONTENT to find items, then extract IDs from results
ETag: Use if_match with file's ETag for safe concurrent delete operations
Pagination
Box supports two pagination methods:
Offset-based: Use offset + limit (max offset 10000)
Marker-based: Set usemarker: true and follow marker from responses (preferred for large datasets)
Always paginate to completion to avoid partial results
Nested Parameters
Box tools use double underscore notation for nested objects:
parent__id for parent folder reference
lock__access, lock__expires__at, lock__is__download__prevented for file locks
permissions__can__download for download permissions
Imported: Known Pitfalls
ID Formats
All IDs are numeric strings (e.g., "123456", not integers)
Root folder is always "0"
File and folder IDs can be extracted from Box web app URLs
Rate Limits
Box API has per-endpoint rate limits
Search and list operations should use pagination responsibly
Bulk operations should include delays between requests
Parameter Quirks
fields parameter changes response shape: when specified, only mini representation + requested fields are returned
Search requires either query or mdfilters; both are optional individually but one must be present
BOX_UPDATE_FILE with lock set to null removes the lock (raw API only)
Metadata query from field format: enterprise_{enterprise_id}.templateKey or global.templateKey
Permissions
Deletions fail without sufficient permissions; always handle error responses
Collaboration roles determine what operations are allowed
Enterprise settings may restrict certain sharing options
Imported: Limitations
Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
