API Ninjas Automation via Rube MCP
SkillSearchOnce this skill is added, your AI can run API Ninjas utility APIs for you, handling tasks like data lookups automatically. It works through an existing automated connection, so you do not have to manage each request yourself. It checks the available tools first to make sure it uses the right one.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
After adding the skill, ask your AI to search its available tools first to see what it can do. Then give it a lookup task and it will pick the right API Ninjas tool for the job.
Then ask your AI: use the API Ninjas Automation via Rube MCP skill
What your AI can do with it
- Run API Ninjas utility APIs automatically
- Look up data on request through API Ninjas
- Search the available tools to find the right one for a task
- Check each tool's current details before using it
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by composio-community/awesome-codex-skills in composio-skills/api-ninjas-automation/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Automate API Ninjas operations through Composio's API Ninjas toolkit via Rube MCP.
Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/api_ninjas
Prerequisites
- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
- Active API Ninjas connection via
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSwith toolkitapi_ninjas - Always call
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLSfirst 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_TOOLSresponds - Call
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSwith toolkitapi_ninjas - 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: "API Ninjas 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 API Ninjas task"}]
session: {id: "existing_session_id"}
Step 2: Check Connection
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
toolkits: ["api_ninjas"]
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_CONNECTIONSshows ACTIVE status before executing tools - Schema compliance: Use exact field names and types from the search results
- Memory parameter: Always include
memoryinRUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOLcalls, 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
