## Description

MCP Server Box integrates with the Box API to enable AI assistants to perform operations on Box files and folders, including search, text extraction, AI-based querying, and structured data extraction. Built by the Box community, it leverages Box's Claude AI capabilities to analyze documents, extract specific information from files, and answer questions about content.
