✅ What the AI can do
- Connect Claude to your content stored in Box. Enable Claude to search and access files, use AI to query documents, create or update content, extract metadata fields, and more, while enforcing existing Box security and access policies.
- Work with documents, spreadsheets, and presentations stored in Box to create concise summaries, pre-reads, or stakeholder updates.
- Create decision-ready briefs from documents: "Summarize the ACME Hub"
- Synthesize knowledge across projects: "Combine research docs, support summaries, and specs in [folder] into a single synthesis with themes and evidence for each."
- Find exact answers with sources: "Search for where the contract mentions termination for convenience and paste the clause with the file reference so Legal can verify."
⛔ What it can't do / limits
- MCP doesn't bypass Box permissions; the AI only sees what your account can.
Plans & requirements
- A Box admin must enable MCP in the Box Admin Console.
