python · Summary

A Python SDK providing plug-and-play OAuth 2.1 authentication for MCP servers.

time · Summary

A comprehensive MCP server providing time and timezone conversion tools with automatic system timezone detection.

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

time · Use cases

  • Assisting with international meeting scheduling across time zones
  • Providing real-time time information for location-based queries
  • Enabling time conversion for travel planning and itineraries

python · Install

pip install mcpauth

Add 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()
server.with_auth(auth)
