Purpose and Goals

We have released Kintone's official local MCP server to enable flexible experimentation with integrations between generative AI, Kintone, and various services.

By providing it as OSS, developers can freely modify the code, making it easier to accommodate specific use cases. This flexibility helps expand business process improvements and create new value with Kintone. We plan to continue enhancing its features over time.
