Description
This MCP server provides integration with Box's cloud content management platform, enabling AI agents from platforms like Anthropic's Claude, Microsoft Copilot Studio, and Mistral Le Chat to access and interact with Box-stored content seamlessly. Available in two variants - a remote server hosted directly in Box that can be enabled through the Admin Console, and an open-source self-hosted version that can be cloned and run locally - it extends AI agent capabilities by allowing them to perform content-related actions on files and folders stored in Box. The implementation reduces development effort for building advanced integrations with Box's content platform, making it valuable for organizations that need AI agents to work with their Box-managed documents, collaborate on content workflows, or automate content management tasks.
