- BoxBoxFoundation skill for working with Box. Use this whenever the user mentions Box — authentication and MCP/CLI setup, choosing between MCP/CLI/REST, rate-limit and pacing guidance, troubleshooting Box errors (401/403/404/409/429), or working with Box MCP tools (files, search, collaboration, AI, hubs, doc gen). Route general Box requests to the right reference.
- Box CliBoxUse the official Box CLI for Box command-line operations, reproducible shell automation, CLI authentication or troubleshooting, and bulk Box work. Do not use for generic shell questions, Box strategy, or application code that should use a Box SDK.
- Box Integration Best PracticesBoxBuild, debug, or review repeatable Box API integrations and agent workflows for efficient calls, bulk work, and 429 handling.
- Box Legal WorkflowsBoxShared building blocks for Box-based legal workflows — Box collaboration role definitions, Box AI usage boundaries (what AI must not decide), and reusable human-in-the-loop confirmation phrasings. Referenced by box-legal-workflows-ma, box-legal-workflows-intake, and box-legal-workflows-contract skills.
- Box Legal Workflows ContractBoxAutomate contract review and monitoring with Box MCP — find new or expiring contracts, compare them against firm templates to flag material variances, write structured contract metadata back to Box for searchability, and produce variance reports with citations.
- Box Legal Workflows IntakeBoxAutomate legal client intake and onboarding with Box MCP — review intake documents for completeness against firm requirements, summarize risk for attorney review, route incomplete or high-risk submissions to the right attorney, extract client and matter metadata to Box, and generate engagement letters from Box DocGen templates.
- Box Legal Workflows MaBoxBuild and manage M&A virtual data rooms with Box MCP — create secure due-diligence folder structures, scope role-based access for internal teams and external parties, validate permissions before sharing, and answer cross-document due-diligence questions with Box AI. Use this skill when the user mentions M&A, deal rooms, data rooms, VDRs, due diligence, or mergers and acquisitions.
- Box MCPBoxConnect clients to Box's hosted MCP server and operate Box through its tools. Use for Box MCP setup, authentication, missing tools, or Box tasks using an MCP connection.
- Box Sdk DevelopmentBoxBuild or debug application code using an official Box SDK, especially Python or TypeScript/Node. Covers SDK call correctness, file transfer, bulk work, rate limits, and observability; not one-off CLI or MCP content operations.
