I just configured this and it is spectacular. All of our knowledge and best practices in one place. My team can simply use the ai_qa_hub tool to ask a question about our style and best practices. We have some specific SQL conventions we use and I had Github Copilot / Box MCP update the file. It came back with the specifics we needed. Exactly what I was looking for.

I know other dev platforms allow you to put knowledge in their systems, but we have all of our other corporate knowledge in Box so this just keeps everything consistent and easy to reference.

thanks ​@Gmoore-77 for the feedback, keep it coming!

Thanks for the feedback ​@Gmoore-77! The AI Q&A tools are some of my favorites too. Having your team’s conventions and best practices in Box so Copilot can pull from them is exactly the kind of workflow we wanted to highlight. Really appreciate you testing it out and sharing the SQL example 🤙

​@andrewwong Has anyone said anything about Visual Studio as opposed to VS Code. I think it is an issue with Visual Studio, but it doesn’t seem to keep the web server open long enough to get the oauth response back. Setup works perfect in VSCode, but Visual Studio seems to choke for some reason. 

Just another good point with the Box MCP is that you may have other tools or resources outside your GitHub that may need access to that knowledge. Using Box allows it to be shared by a wider range of tools.
