Box

Exposes Box cloud storage as a standardized Model Context Protocol (MCP) resource, allowing LLM agents and tools to read, list, and traverse files and folders in Box accounts without direct API integration. Implements MCP resource handlers that translate Box API calls into standardized resource URIs and content delivery, enabling any MCP-compatible client (Claude, custom agents) to interact with Box as a native data source.

Enables full-text and metadata-based search across all accessible Box files and folders, returning ranked results with file paths, IDs, and relevance metadata. Implements search queries against Box's native search API, translating user search intent into Box API filter parameters and returning structured result sets that agents can parse and act upon.

Recursively lists and navigates Box folder structures, exposing directory trees as MCP resources with metadata for each file and subfolder. Implements depth-first or breadth-first traversal of Box folder hierarchies, caching folder structures in memory to reduce API calls, and returning paginated results for large directories with support for filtering by file type or metadata.

Retrieves raw file content from Box with automatic handling of text, binary, and structured formats (JSON, CSV, PDF metadata). Implements Box download API calls with streaming support for large files, automatic MIME type detection, and format-specific parsing (e.g., extracting text from PDFs via Box's preview API or external OCR if configured). Returns file content as strings for text formats or base64-encoded data for binary formats.

Maps Box files, folders, and search results to standardized MCP resource URIs (e.g., box://folder/path/to/file.txt), enabling any MCP-compatible client to reference Box entities using consistent naming conventions. Implements URI parsing and validation, translating between Box IDs and human-readable paths, and maintaining a registry of accessible resources that clients can discover and reference.
