Overview

This is a comprehensive MCP server playground built with TypeScript that implements HTTP-based transport with SSE resumability. It features OAuth authentication/authorization with support for third-party providers like Auth0, GitHub, and Google. The server includes various tools for AWS services (ECS, S3), system operations (time, echo), and data streaming capabilities. It supports pluggable storage abstractions and stateful sessions across multiple server instances using Valkey for persistence. The architecture documentation is thorough, with detailed explanations of how OAuth integration works with dynamic client registration while addressing security concerns.

Try asking AI

After installing, here are 5 things you can ask your AI assistant:

you:Building secure MCP servers requiring OAuth authentication with third-party providers
you:Implementing stateful MCP sessions across distributed deployments using Valkey
you:Creating tools for AWS service investigation and monitoring with AI analysis
you:How does this server handle OAuth authentication?
you:Can this server be deployed as a cluster with stateful sessions?

When to choose this

Choose this when you need to build secure MCP services with OAuth integration, require reliable connection handling with SSE, or need to deploy MCP servers in clusters with stateful sessions.

When NOT to choose this

Avoid if you need a simple MCP server without OAuth complexity, are working in an environment without Node.js/Bun support, or require a fully managed service rather than a self-hosted solution.

FAQ

How does this server handle OAuth authentication?
The server implements an OAuth proxy that delegates authorization to third-party providers like Auth0. This enables dynamic client registration while maintaining security by preventing abuse of public registration endpoints.
Can this server be deployed as a cluster with stateful sessions?
Yes, the server supports stateful sessions across multiple instances using Valkey to store session data. When a request comes to a different server instance, it checks if the session exists in Valkey and replays the initial request if needed.
