Klaviyo Automation

Klaviyo Automation via Rube MCP

Overview

This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/klaviyo-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.

Klaviyo Automation via Rube MCP Automate Klaviyo email and SMS marketing operations through Composio's Klaviyo toolkit via Rube MCP.

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 Klaviyo tasks via Rube MCP (Composio): manage email/SMS campaigns, inspect campaign messages, track tags, and monitor send jobs. Always search tools first for current schemas.
• 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.

Operating Table

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. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBESEARCHTOOLS responds
2. Call RUBEMANAGECONNECTIONS with toolkit klaviyo
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Klaviyo authentication
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
5. KLAVIYOGETCAMPAIGNS - List campaigns with channel and status filters [Required]
6. channel: Campaign channel - 'email' or 'sms' (required by Klaviyo API)
7. filter: Additional filter string (e.g., equals(status,"draft"))

Imported: Core Workflows

1. List and Filter Campaigns

When to use: User wants to browse, search, or filter marketing campaigns

Tool sequence:

1. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGNS - List campaigns with channel and status filters [Required]

Key parameters:

• channel: Campaign channel - 'email' or 'sms' (required by Klaviyo API)
• filter: Additional filter string (e.g., equals(status,"draft"))
• sort: Sort field with optional - prefix for descending (e.g., '-created_at', 'name')
• page_cursor: Pagination cursor for next page
• include_archived: Include archived campaigns (default: false)

Pitfalls:

• channel is required; omitting it can produce incomplete or unexpected results
• Pagination is mandatory for full coverage; a single call returns only one page (default ~10)
• Follow page_cursor until exhausted to get all campaigns
• Status filtering via filter (e.g., equals(status,"draft")) can return mixed statuses; always validate data[].attributes.status client-side
• Status strings are case-sensitive and can be compound (e.g., 'Cancelled: No Recipients')
• Response shape is nested: response.data.data with status at data[].attributes.status

2. Get Campaign Details

When to use: User wants detailed information about a specific campaign

Tool sequence:

1. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGNS - Find campaign to get its ID [Prerequisite]
2. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGN - Retrieve full campaign details [Required]

Key parameters:

• campaign_id: Campaign ID string (e.g., '01GDDKASAP8TKDDA2GRZDSVP4H')
• include_messages: Include campaign messages in response
• include_tags: Include tags in response

Pitfalls:

• Campaign IDs are alphanumeric strings, not numeric
• include_messages and include_tags add related data to the response via Klaviyo's include mechanism
• Campaign details include audiences, send strategy, tracking options, and scheduling info

3. Inspect Campaign Messages

When to use: User wants to view the email/SMS content of a campaign

Tool sequence:

1. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGN - Find campaign and its message IDs [Prerequisite]
2. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGN_MESSAGE - Get message content details [Required]

Key parameters:

• id: Message ID string
• fields__campaign__message: Sparse fieldset for message attributes (e.g., 'content.subject', 'content.from_email', 'content.body')
• fields__campaign: Sparse fieldset for campaign attributes
• fields__template: Sparse fieldset for template attributes
• include: Related resources to include ('campaign', 'template')

Pitfalls:

• Message IDs are separate from campaign IDs; extract from campaign response
• Sparse fieldset syntax uses dot notation for nested fields: 'content.subject', 'content.from_email'
• Email messages have content fields: subject, preview_text, from_email, from_label, reply_to_email
• SMS messages have content fields: body
• Including 'template' provides the HTML/text content of the email

4. Manage Campaign Tags

When to use: User wants to view tags associated with campaigns for organization

Tool sequence:

1. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGN_RELATIONSHIPS_TAGS - Get tag IDs for a campaign [Required]

Key parameters:

• id: Campaign ID string

Pitfalls:

• Returns only tag IDs, not tag names/details
• Tag IDs can be used with Klaviyo's tag endpoints for full details
• Rate limit: 3/s burst, 60/m steady (stricter than other endpoints)

5. Monitor Campaign Send Jobs

When to use: User wants to check the status of a campaign send operation

Tool sequence:

1. KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGN_SEND_JOB - Check send job status [Required]

Key parameters:

• id: Send job ID

Pitfalls:

• Send job IDs are returned when a campaign send is initiated
• Job statuses indicate whether the send is queued, in progress, complete, or failed
• Rate limit: 10/s burst, 150/m steady

Imported: Prerequisites

• Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
• Active Klaviyo connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit klaviyo
• Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @klaviyo-automation 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 @klaviyo-automation 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 @klaviyo-automation 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 @klaviyo-automation 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-claude/skills/klaviyo-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 Reference Notes

Imported: Quick Reference

Imported: Common Patterns

Campaign Discovery Pattern

1. Call KLAVIYO_GET_CAMPAIGNS with channel='email'
2. Paginate through all results via page_cursor
3. Filter by status client-side for accuracy
4. Extract campaign IDs for detailed inspection

Sparse Fieldset Pattern

Klaviyo supports sparse fieldsets to reduce response size:

fields__campaign__message=['content.subject', 'content.from_email', 'send_times']
fields__campaign=['name', 'status', 'send_time']
fields__template=['name', 'html', 'text']

Pagination

• Klaviyo uses cursor-based pagination
• Check response for page_cursor in the pagination metadata
• Pass cursor as page_cursor in next request
• Default page size is ~10 campaigns
• Continue until no more cursor is returned

Filter Syntax

- equals(status,"draft") - Campaigns in draft status
- equals(name,"Newsletter") - Campaign named "Newsletter"
- greater-than(created_at,"2024-01-01T00:00:00Z") - Created after date

Imported: Known Pitfalls

API Version:

• Klaviyo API uses versioned endpoints (e.g., v2024-07-15)
• Response schemas may change between API versions
• Tool responses follow the version configured in the Composio integration

Response Nesting:

• Data is nested: response.data.data[].attributes
• Campaign status at data[].attributes.status
• Mis-parsing the nesting yields empty or incorrect results
• Always navigate through the full path defensively

Rate Limits:

• Burst: 10/s (3/s for tag endpoints)
• Steady: 150/m (60/m for tag endpoints)
• Required scope: campaigns:read
• Implement backoff on 429 responses

Status Values:

• Status strings are case-sensitive
• Compound statuses exist (e.g., 'Cancelled: No Recipients')
• Server-side filtering may return mixed statuses; always validate client-side

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.
