Bitbucket Automation via Rube MCP

Automate Bitbucket operations including repository management, pull request workflows, branch operations, issue tracking, and workspace administration through Composio's Bitbucket toolkit.

Prerequisites

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

Core Workflows

1. Manage Pull Requests

When to use: User wants to create, review, or inspect pull requests

Tool sequence:

```
BITBUCKET_LIST_WORKSPACES
```
- Discover accessible workspaces [Prerequisite]
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_REPOSITORIES_IN_WORKSPACE
```
- Find the target repository [Prerequisite]
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_BRANCHES
```
- Verify source and destination branches exist [Prerequisite]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_PULL_REQUEST
```
- Create a new PR with title, source branch, and optional reviewers [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_PULL_REQUESTS
```
- List PRs filtered by state (OPEN, MERGED, DECLINED) [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST
```
- Get full details of a specific PR by ID [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFF
```
- Fetch unified diff for code review [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFFSTAT
```
- Get changed files with lines added/removed [Optional]

Key parameters:

```
workspace
```
: Workspace slug or UUID (required for all operations)
```
repo_slug
```
: URL-friendly repository name
```
source_branch
```
: Branch with changes to merge
```
destination_branch
```
: Target branch (defaults to repo main branch if omitted)
```
reviewers
```
: List of objects with
```
uuid
```
field for reviewer assignment
```
state
```
: Filter for LIST_PULL_REQUESTS -
```
OPEN
```
,
```
MERGED
```
, or
```
DECLINED
```
```
max_chars
```
: Truncation limit for GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFF to handle large diffs

Pitfalls:

```
reviewers
```
expects an array of objects with
```
uuid
```
key, NOT usernames:
```
[{"uuid": "{...}"}]
```
UUID format must include curly braces:
```
{123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000}
```
```
destination_branch
```
defaults to the repo's main branch if omitted, which may not be
```
main
```
```
pull_request_id
```
is an integer for GET/DIFF operations but comes back as part of PR listing
Large diffs can overwhelm context; always set
```
max_chars
```
(e.g., 50000) on GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFF

2. Manage Repositories and Workspaces

When to use: User wants to list, create, or delete repositories or explore workspaces

Tool sequence:

```
BITBUCKET_LIST_WORKSPACES
```
- List all accessible workspaces [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_REPOSITORIES_IN_WORKSPACE
```
- List repos with optional BBQL filtering [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_REPOSITORY
```
- Create a new repo with language, privacy, and project settings [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_DELETE_REPOSITORY
```
- Permanently delete a repository (irreversible) [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_WORKSPACE_MEMBERS
```
- List members for reviewer assignment or access checks [Optional]

Key parameters:

```
workspace
```
: Workspace slug (find via LIST_WORKSPACES)
```
repo_slug
```
: URL-friendly name for create/delete

: BBQL query filter (e.g.,

name~"api"

project.key="PROJ"

is_private=true

)

```
role
```
: Filter repos by user role:
```
member
```
,
```
contributor
```
,
```
admin
```
,
```
owner
```
```
sort
```
: Sort field with optional
```
-
```
prefix for descending (e.g.,
```
-updated_on
```
)
```
is_private
```
: Boolean for repository visibility (defaults to
```
true
```
)
```
project_key
```
: Bitbucket project key; omit to use workspace's oldest project

Pitfalls:

```
BITBUCKET_DELETE_REPOSITORY
```
is irreversible and does not affect forks
BBQL string values MUST be enclosed in double quotes:
```
name~"my-repo"
```
not
```
name~my-repo
```
```
repository
```
is NOT a valid BBQL field; use
```
name
```
instead
Default pagination is 10 results; set
```
pagelen
```
explicitly for complete listings
```
CREATE_REPOSITORY
```
defaults to private; set
```
is_private: false
```
for public repos

3. Manage Issues

When to use: User wants to create, update, list, or comment on repository issues

Tool sequence:

```
BITBUCKET_LIST_ISSUES
```
- List issues with optional filters for state, priority, kind, assignee [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_ISSUE
```
- Create a new issue with title, content, priority, and kind [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_UPDATE_ISSUE
```
- Modify issue attributes (state, priority, assignee, etc.) [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_ISSUE_COMMENT
```
- Add a markdown comment to an existing issue [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_DELETE_ISSUE
```
- Permanently delete an issue [Optional]

Key parameters:

```
issue_id
```
: String identifier for the issue
```
title
```
,
```
content
```
: Required for creation
```
kind
```
:
```
bug
```
,
```
enhancement
```
,
```
proposal
```
, or
```
task
```

priority

trivial

minor

major

critical

, or

blocker

state

new

open

resolved

on hold

invalid

duplicate

wontfix

closed

```
assignee
```
: Bitbucket username for CREATE;
```
assignee_account_id
```
(UUID) for UPDATE
```
due_on
```
: ISO 8601 format date string

Pitfalls:

Issue tracker must be enabled on the repository (
```
has_issues: true
```
) or API calls will fail
```
CREATE_ISSUE
```
uses
```
assignee
```
(username string), but
```
UPDATE_ISSUE
```
uses
```
assignee_account_id
```
(UUID) -- they are different fields
```
DELETE_ISSUE
```
is permanent with no undo
```
state
```
values include spaces:
```
"on hold"
```
not
```
"on_hold"
```
Filtering by
```
assignee
```
in LIST_ISSUES uses account ID, not username; use
```
"null"
```
string for unassigned

4. Manage Branches

When to use: User wants to create branches or explore branch structure

Tool sequence:

```
BITBUCKET_LIST_BRANCHES
```
- List branches with optional BBQL filter and sorting [Required]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_BRANCH
```
- Create a new branch from a specific commit hash [Required]

Key parameters:

```
name
```
: Branch name without
```
refs/heads/
```
prefix (e.g.,
```
feature/new-login
```
)
```
target_hash
```
: Full SHA1 commit hash to branch from (must exist in repo)
```
q
```
: BBQL filter (e.g.,
```
name~"feature/"
```
,
```
name="main"
```
)
```
sort
```
: Sort by
```
name
```
or
```
-target.date
```
(descending commit date)
```
pagelen
```
: 1-100 results per page (default is 10)

Pitfalls:

```
CREATE_BRANCH
```
requires a full commit hash, NOT a branch name as
```
target_hash
```
Do NOT include
```
refs/heads/
```
prefix in branch names
Branch names must follow Bitbucket naming conventions (alphanumeric,
```
/
```
,
```
.
```
,
```
_
```
,
```
-
```
)
BBQL string values need double quotes:
```
name~"feature/"
```
not
```
name~feature/
```

5. Review Pull Requests with Comments

When to use: User wants to add review comments to pull requests, including inline code comments

Tool sequence:

```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST
```
- Get PR details and verify it exists [Prerequisite]
```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFF
```
- Review the actual code changes [Prerequisite]
```
BITBUCKET_GET_PULL_REQUEST_DIFFSTAT
```
- Get list of changed files [Optional]
```
BITBUCKET_CREATE_PULL_REQUEST_COMMENT
```
- Post review comments [Required]

Key parameters:

```
pull_request_id
```
: String ID of the PR
```
content_raw
```
: Markdown-formatted comment text
```
content_markup
```
: Defaults to
```
markdown
```
; also supports
```
plaintext
```
```
inline
```
: Object with
```
path
```
,
```
from
```
,
```
to
```
for inline code comments
```
parent_comment_id
```
: Integer ID for threaded replies to existing comments

Pitfalls:

```
pull_request_id
```
is a string in CREATE_PULL_REQUEST_COMMENT but an integer in GET_PULL_REQUEST
Inline comments require
```
inline.path
```
at minimum;
```
from
```
/
```
to
```
are optional line numbers
```
parent_comment_id
```
creates a threaded reply; omit for top-level comments
Line numbers in inline comments reference the diff, not the source file

Common Patterns

ID Resolution

Always resolve human-readable names to IDs before operations:

Workspace:
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_WORKSPACES
```
to get workspace slugs

Repository:

BITBUCKET_LIST_REPOSITORIES_IN_WORKSPACE

with

filter to find repo slugs

Branch:
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_BRANCHES
```
to verify branch existence before PR creation
Members:
```
BITBUCKET_LIST_WORKSPACE_MEMBERS
```
to get UUIDs for reviewer assignment

Pagination

Bitbucket uses page-based pagination (not cursor-based):

Use
```
page
```
(starts at 1) and
```
pagelen
```
(items per page) parameters
Default page size is typically 10; set
```
pagelen
```
explicitly (max 50 for PRs, 100 for others)
Check response for
```
next
```
URL or total count to determine if more pages exist
Always iterate through all pages for complete results

BBQL Filtering

Bitbucket Query Language is available on list endpoints:

String values MUST use double quotes:
```
name~"pattern"
```
Operators:
```
=
```
(exact),
```
~
```
(contains),
```
!=
```
(not equal),
```
>
```
,
```
>=
```
,
```
<
```
,
```
<=
```
Combine with
```
AND
```
/
```
OR
```
:
```
name~"api" AND is_private=true
```

Known Pitfalls

ID Formats

Workspace: slug string (e.g.,
```
my-workspace
```
) or UUID in braces (
```
{uuid}
```
)
Reviewer UUIDs must include curly braces:
```
{123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000}
```
Issue IDs are strings; PR IDs are integers in some tools, strings in others
Commit hashes must be full SHA1 (40 characters)

Parameter Quirks

```
assignee
```
vs
```
assignee_account_id
```
: CREATE_ISSUE uses username, UPDATE_ISSUE uses UUID
```
state
```
values for issues include spaces:
```
"on hold"
```
, not
```
"on_hold"
```
```
destination_branch
```
omission defaults to repo main branch, not
```
main
```
literally
BBQL
```
repository
```
is not a valid field -- use
```
name
```

Rate Limits

Bitbucket Cloud API has rate limits; large batch operations should include delays
Paginated requests count against rate limits; minimize unnecessary page fetches

Destructive Operations

```
BITBUCKET_DELETE_REPOSITORY
```
is irreversible and does not remove forks
```
BITBUCKET_DELETE_ISSUE
```
is permanent with no recovery option
Always confirm with the user before executing delete operations
