python · Summary
A Python SDK providing plug-and-play OAuth 2.1 authentication for MCP servers.
everything · Summary
Official MCP test server exercising all protocol features for client builders.
python · Use cases
- Securely connecting Python MCP servers to external services using OAuth 2.1
- Rapid implementation of authentication in MCP servers without deep security expertise
- Standardizing authentication across multiple MCP servers using a single SDK
everything · Use cases
- Testing MCP client implementations against all protocol features
- Learning MCP protocol capabilities through a reference server
- Validating client compatibility with different transport methods
python · Install
pip install mcpauthAdd to your MCP server implementation:
from mcpauth import AuthMiddleware
# Initialize with your provider configuration
auth = AuthMiddleware(
provider="your_provider",
client_id="your_client_id",
client_secret="your_client_secret"
)
# Apply to your MCP server
server = YourMCPServer()
