Overview

MCP Auth is a comprehensive authentication solution designed specifically for MCP servers. It eliminates the need to spend weeks implementing OAuth 2.1 and other RFC specifications required by the MCP auth protocol. Instead, developers can connect to trusted providers with just a few lines of code. The solution is provider-agnostic, working with any compliant OAuth 2.1 or OpenID Connect provider, and includes tools to verify provider compliance.
