Simplify things, put one in your seatpost if you must.

To be honest I don't see the point unless you are touring the plains of Tibet. Get good quality wheels and your spoke breakages should drop to near zero. Are you going to carry a rear cassette remover and chainwhip with you everywhere? - drive side spokes break most often. And hypercrackers can damage frames.

for bits try:

they stock more than they list and are very helpful

or take an emergency spoke - no need to remove cassette

or do as above - stick then in the seatpost or just tape to frame...
