What it does

Salesforce Automation is an agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude. Automate Salesforce tasks via Rube MCP (Composio): leads, contacts, accounts, opportunities, SOQL queries. Always search tools first for current schemas.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering CRM management and App automation through connectors. It works with Salesforce and Composio. The repository describes itself as: A single hub to find Claude Skills, Agents, Commands, Hooks, Plugins, and Marketplace collections to extend Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Agent SDK and OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve CRM management
  • Tasks that involve App automation through connectors

Example prompts

  • “/salesforce-automation”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Manage Leads
  2. Manage Contacts and Accounts
  3. Manage Opportunities
  4. Run SOQL Queries
  5. Manage Tasks

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 616deb5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • rube.app

    Also links to:

    • composio.dev

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Salesforce Automation loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 694 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Salesforce Automation via Rube MCP

Automate Salesforce CRM operations through Composio's Salesforce toolkit via Rube MCP.

Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/salesforce

Prerequisites

  • Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
  • Active Salesforce connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit salesforce
  • 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.

  1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds
  2. Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit salesforce
  3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Salesforce OAuth
  4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Core Workflows

1. Manage Leads

When to use: User wants to create, search, update, or list leads

Tool sequence:

  1. SALESFORCE_SEARCH_LEADS - Search leads by criteria [Optional]
  2. SALESFORCE_LIST_LEADS - List all leads [Optional]
  3. SALESFORCE_CREATE_LEAD - Create a new lead [Optional]
  4. SALESFORCE_UPDATE_LEAD - Update lead fields [Optional]
  5. SALESFORCE_ADD_LEAD_TO_CAMPAIGN - Add lead to campaign [Optional]
  6. SALESFORCE_APPLY_LEAD_ASSIGNMENT_RULES - Apply assignment rules [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • LastName: Required for lead creation
  • Company: Required for lead creation
  • Email, Phone, Title: Common lead fields
  • lead_id: Lead ID for updates
  • campaign_id: Campaign ID for campaign operations

Pitfalls:

  • LastName and Company are required fields for lead creation
  • Lead IDs are 15 or 18 character Salesforce IDs
2. Manage Contacts and Accounts

When to use: User wants to manage contacts and their associated accounts

Tool sequence:

  1. SALESFORCE_SEARCH_CONTACTS - Search contacts [Optional]
  2. SALESFORCE_LIST_CONTACTS - List contacts [Optional]
  3. SALESFORCE_CREATE_CONTACT - Create a new contact [Optional]
  4. SALESFORCE_SEARCH_ACCOUNTS - Search accounts [Optional]
  5. SALESFORCE_CREATE_ACCOUNT - Create a new account [Optional]
  6. SALESFORCE_ASSOCIATE_CONTACT_TO_ACCOUNT - Link contact to account [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • LastName: Required for contact creation
  • Name: Account name for creation
  • AccountId: Account ID to associate with contact
  • contact_id, account_id: IDs for association

Pitfalls:

  • Contact requires at least LastName
  • Account association requires both valid contact and account IDs
3. Manage Opportunities

When to use: User wants to track and manage sales opportunities

Tool sequence:

  1. SALESFORCE_SEARCH_OPPORTUNITIES - Search opportunities [Optional]
  2. SALESFORCE_LIST_OPPORTUNITIES - List all opportunities [Optional]
  3. SALESFORCE_GET_OPPORTUNITY - Get opportunity details [Optional]
  4. SALESFORCE_CREATE_OPPORTUNITY - Create new opportunity [Optional]
  5. SALESFORCE_RETRIEVE_OPPORTUNITIES_DATA - Retrieve opportunity data [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • Name: Opportunity name (required)
  • StageName: Sales stage (required)
  • CloseDate: Expected close date (required)
  • Amount: Deal value
  • AccountId: Associated account

Pitfalls:

  • Name, StageName, and CloseDate are required for creation
  • Stage names must match exactly what is configured in Salesforce

4. Run SOQL Queries

When to use: User wants to query Salesforce data with custom SOQL

Tool sequence:

  1. SALESFORCE_RUN_SOQL_QUERY / SALESFORCE_QUERY - Execute SOQL [Required]

Key parameters:

  • query: SOQL query string

Pitfalls:

  • SOQL syntax differs from SQL; uses Salesforce object and field API names
  • Field API names may differ from display labels (e.g., Account.Name not Account Name)
  • Results are paginated for large datasets
5. Manage Tasks

When to use: User wants to create, search, update, or complete tasks

Tool sequence:

  1. SALESFORCE_SEARCH_TASKS - Search tasks [Optional]
  2. SALESFORCE_UPDATE_TASK - Update task fields [Optional]
  3. SALESFORCE_COMPLETE_TASK - Mark task as complete [Optional]

Key parameters:

  • task_id: Task ID for updates
  • Status: Task status value
  • Subject: Task subject

Pitfalls:

  • Task status values must match picklist options in Salesforce

Common Patterns

SOQL Syntax

Basic query:

SELECT Id, Name, Email FROM Contact WHERE LastName = 'Smith'

With relationships:

SELECT Id, Name, Account.Name FROM Contact WHERE Account.Industry = 'Technology'

Date filtering:

SELECT Id, Name FROM Lead WHERE CreatedDate = TODAY
SELECT Id, Name FROM Opportunity WHERE CloseDate = NEXT_MONTH
Pagination
  • SOQL queries with large results return pagination tokens
  • Use SALESFORCE_QUERY with nextRecordsUrl for pagination
  • Check done field in response; if false, continue paging

Known Pitfalls

Field API Names:

  • Always use API names, not display labels
  • Custom fields end with __c suffix
  • Use SALESFORCE_GET_ALL_CUSTOM_OBJECTS to discover custom objects

ID Formats:

  • Salesforce IDs are 15 (case-sensitive) or 18 (case-insensitive) characters
  • Both formats are accepted in most operations
