if you're changing spokes, you're gonna need a cassette tool and a 6" crescent with a wide enough mouth to grip the tool. spoke wrench of course, and a torx tool to remove the disc brake if you haven't replaced with standard hex bolts.

you're gonna want a tire boot as you can't always find something roadside to improvise.

i ride in monsoon mud, so carry a cone wrench plus bb's and grease. if my hubs have cassette bearings, spares and hope to find a nut&bolt store where i can mcgyver a bearing press.

traveling by air, or here in asialand where it's common to throw bikes atop 19-pax buses, i like to carry a spare derailleur hanger.
