## Description

This Box MCP server, developed by @hmk, provides a standardized interface for interacting with Box cloud storage through the Model Context Protocol. Built with TypeScript and leveraging the Box SDK, it offers functionality for searching and reading files, with support for PDF and Word document formats. The server uses developer token authentication and is designed for easy setup and integration. By abstracting Box operations into an MCP interface, it enables AI systems to seamlessly access and process documents stored in Box. This implementation is particularly useful for applications requiring document analysis, content extraction, or information retrieval from Box repositories, facilitating use cases such as automated document processing, content management, and data mining within Box environments.
