What it does
The official MCP server for kintone, a Japanese cloud-based work management and database platform. It exposes kintone apps and records as queryable resources, allowing Claude to read data, download files, and manage records programmatically. The server connects to your kintone instance via HTTP, using credentials passed through environment variables, and maintains its own local state for filesystem operations.
Who it's for
Teams and developers using kintone for project management, data collection, or workflow automation who want to integrate Claude into their kintone workflows—particularly those automating reporting, data analysis, or record-keeping tasks across their work management system.
Common use cases
- Query kintone apps and records from Claude Code to generate reports or summaries
- Download files attached to kintone records for analysis
- Bulk create or update kintone records programmatically via Claude
- Analyze trends or patterns in kintone data using Claude's reasoning
Setup pitfalls
- Requires kintone credentials (base URL, username, password) as environment variables; misconfiguration blocks all operations
- Filesystem write access required—consider sandboxing the server if running untrusted prompts
- Primary documentation is in Japanese; English README exists but may lag behind
- Your kintone account must have API permissions enabled and sufficient role privileges for the operations you intend
