Setup snapshot

git clone https://github.com/Albiemark/dbx-mcp-server.git

1
Setup complexity is MEDIUM. Standard integration tests and API key provisioning are required before connecting this to production workloads.
2
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

Quick Start

Clone the repository
Run npm install to install dependencies
Run npm run build to build the project
Register a Dropbox app at Dropbox App Console:
- Choose "Scoped access" API
- Choose the access type your app needs
- Name your app and click "Create app"
- Under "Permissions", select the required permissions:
  - files.metadata.read
  - files.content.read
  - files.content.write
  - sharing.write
  - account_info.read
- Add http://localhost:3000/callback as your redirect URI
- Note your App key and App secret
Run the setup script:
```
npm run setup
```
Configure your MCP client to use the server

Installation

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/your-username/dbx-mcp-server.git
cd dbx-mcp-server

Install dependencies and build
```
npm install
npm run build
```
Run the setup script
```
npm run setup
```

Add to MCP settings

Add the following to your MCP settings file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dbx": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/dbx-mcp-server/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Authentication

The server uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE for secure authentication with Dropbox.

Environment Variables

Required:

DROPBOX_APP_KEY: Your Dropbox app's key
DROPBOX_APP_SECRET: Your Dropbox app's secret
DROPBOX_REDIRECT_URI: OAuth redirect URI
TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY: 32+ character key for token encryption

Optional:

TOKEN_REFRESH_THRESHOLD_MINUTES: Minutes before expiration to refresh token (default: 5)
MAX_TOKEN_REFRESH_RETRIES: Maximum number of refresh attempts (default: 3)
TOKEN_REFRESH_RETRY_DELAY_MS: Delay between refresh attempts in ms (default: 1000)

Available Tools

File Operations

list_files: List files in a directory
upload_file: Upload a file
download_file: Download a file
safe_delete_item: Safely delete with recycle bin support
create_folder: Create a new folder
copy_item: Copy a file or folder
move_item: Move or rename a file/folder

Metadata and Search

get_file_metadata: Get file/folder metadata
search_file_db: Search files and folders
get_sharing_link: Create sharing links
get_file_content: Get file contents

Account Operations

get_account_info: Get account information

Usage Examples

// List files in root directory
await mcp.useTool("dbx-mcp-server", "list_files", { path: "" });

// Upload a file
await mcp.useTool("dbx-mcp-server", "upload_file", {
  path: "/test.txt",
  content: Buffer.from("Hello World").toString("base64"),
});

// Search for files
await mcp.useTool("dbx-mcp-server", "search_file_db", {
  query: "report",
  path: "/Documents",
  max_results: 10,
});

Testing

Run the test suite:

npm test

Tests verify all operations including authentication, file operations, and error handling.

Test Structure

The test suite is organized into several modules:

Dropbox Operations: Tests for basic file operations (upload, download, list, etc.)
Account Operations: Tests for accessing account information
Search and Delete: Tests for search functionality and safe deletion with recycle bin support
Resource System: Tests for the MCP resource system integration

Handling Test Data

The tests use dynamically generated file and folder names based on timestamps to avoid conflicts. Test data is automatically cleaned up after test execution.

Running Specific Tests

To run a specific test file or test group:

npm test -- tests/dropbox/search-delete.test.ts  # Run specific test file
npm test -- -t "should search for files"        # Run tests matching description

Troubleshooting Tests

If tests fail with timing or authentication issues:

Check that the mock implementations in tests/setup.ts match your test expectations
Ensure test helpers are correctly configured
For Jest scope errors, avoid referencing imported variables in mock factory functions

Development

Built with:

TypeScript
Model Context Protocol SDK
Dropbox SDK v10.34.0
Dropbox API v2
