What This Skill Does

This skill automates Brex operations using the Composio Brex toolkit through Rube MCP. It's designed for users who want to streamline their Brex workflows by programmatically interacting with Brex's features. The skill requires an active Brex connection and Rube MCP setup.

When to Use

  • Automate expense report generation
  • Manage user access and permissions
  • Reconcile transactions automatically
  • Extract transaction data for analysis
  • Set spending limits for cards
  • Generate custom Brex reports

Key Features

  • Discovers available Brex tools via Rube MCP
  • Checks Brex connection status before execution
  • Executes Brex tools with schema-compliant arguments
  • Provides a structured workflow pattern for Brex automation
  • Uses Rube MCP for tool discovery and execution
  • Requires active Brex connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS

Prerequisites

Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available) Active Brex connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit brex 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 brex If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Tool Discovery

Always discover available tools before executing workflows:

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS queries: [{use_case: "Brex 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 Brex task"}] session: {id: "existing_session_id"}

Step 2: Check Connection

RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS toolkits: ["brex"] 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
