# Your Box folders. Sorted with your agent.

Source: https://corespeed.io/integrations/box

Connect Box to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any MCP agent through CoreSpeed. Your agent searches the Box account you connect, lists what each folder holds, and reads each file's details to tell you what is where and what to tidy. Creating a folder, or renaming or moving a file, is a separate call. It does not read file contents.

## Set up an agent

Give your agent this line: `set up https://corespeed.io/SKILL.md (read it raw, e.g. with curl)`

It fetches the skill at https://corespeed.io/SKILL.md, adds the CoreSpeed MCP server, signs you in (or up), and keeps the skill for next time. Connect Box after setup. Access follows the connected account and its permissions. Create an account: https://app.corespeed.io/sign-up

## Know what is where. Then tidy it

Your agent searches Box, lists the folder, and proposes where each file belongs. Moving one is a separate call.

You ask your agent: "Search Box for signed contracts that are still in the Inbox folder. List them and propose where each one belongs. Do not move anything yet."

It calls CoreSpeed:

- `box__search`: ok, 402 ms
- `box__list_folder_items`: ok, 318 ms

It reads from: Box.

### Cleanup plan: Two files to move.

Two signed contracts sit in the Inbox. Both belong in Legal / Contracts 2026.

**Move**

- Acme MSA.pdf to Legal / Contracts 2026.
- Halden order form.pdf to Legal / Contracts 2026.

**Leave**

- The other 12 files in the Inbox.

## From a crowded folder to a clear plan

Requests you can make once Box is connected. The data is fictional.

- Only what your account can see

### See what a folder holds

## Keep your agent. Bring your work

One CoreSpeed account, across compatible agents.

1. **Set up CoreSpeed**: Give your agent the setup line. It adds CoreSpeed and signs you in.
2. **Connect Box**: Authorize the account and the content you need.
3. **Start with one task**: Ask for a summary, a brief, or a draft. Review the answer.

## Questions

### Can my agent read what is inside a Box file?

No. It reads names, folders and file details such as size and dates. It does not open or summarize a file's contents.

### Can it delete files in Box?

No. It can create folders and rename or move files. There is no delete tool.

### Does this send or change anything on its own?

No. These examples read context and draft a result. Sending or changing a record is a separate tool call, which approvals can hold for a person. How approvals work: https://corespeed.io/docs/approvals

### Do I have to switch agents?

No. CoreSpeed adds tools to the agent you already use: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another MCP client. Each one signs in once.

### Can my agent access every account in our organization?

No. Access follows your CoreSpeed identity, each connection's visibility, and the app's own permissions. Personal connections stay private.

### Does this work without connecting an account?

No. Connect the app's account first; your CoreSpeed workspace shows what each app needs. The examples on this page use fictional data. All connectors: https://corespeed.io/docs/connectors
